"Why didn't you tell me?" I snap at my mum as she tugs extra hard at my dress. "Ow, stop it."
"Your boobs are so big, they are hard to fit them in here. I'm doing my best."
"I agree on the first bit of that sentence." Ollie shouts out from my room and I smirk in the mirror.
"What you smirking about?" Mum smirks back at me through the mirror.
"I've got myself a good one, Mum."
"Yes, yes you have."
"Still don't get why you didn't tell me that Alfred's coming."
"My mother sense is tingling and I wanted to invite some people round today."
"What did you just say?"
"Tad bit confused, not going to lie." Ollie says as he comes in to grab his hairbrush but before he leaves he winks at me through the mirror.
"I love you." I mouth at him.
"I love you." He mouths back.
"You guys don't have to mouth it, you can just say it, I don't care." My mum groans.
"And you just ruined the moment." I laugh. "Ow, be careful!" I wince as my mum starts pulling on my hair and scrapping it up into a bun.
"Why are you so worried?"
"You need to look nice and presentable."
"I already have the best boyfriend in the world." I screw my face up in disgust.
"Wasn't talking about that, Amilie."
"Then what?"
"Oh my gosh, just leave it already!"
I wince slightly, startled at her sudden outburst.
"Where's Dad?" I switch up the subject.
"He will be home around now he was just finishing up work."
"And Jaden and Bella?"
"They will be here shortly."
"So the whole gang is here." I say still in confusion.
"Amilie, don't use that word."
"What 'gang'?"
"Amilie!"
"Oh my gosh get a grip, Mum."
"Don't speak to me like that, Miss Carter."
"Sorry, Mrs Carter." I roll my eyes.
"That's more like it." She then taps my shoulder. "All done, now hurry downstairs."
"Thanks, Mother."

"Hello Alfred, so nice to see you!" I hear from my perch at the table. I start shifting in my seat uncomfortably and Ollie catches my eye from the opposite side. He shows no emotion but just stares directly back at me and instead of that making me feel better, it made me even more uneasy.
"Alfred, you remember Amilie, don't you?" My dad asks him as I stand up and tuck my hair behind my ears surprisingly nervous.
"How could I ever forget?" I hear his voice so when I take a step round to get a good look at my 10 year old crush, my head starts to feel a bit light headed. I had to focus on not letting my eyebrows shoot up even when they wanted to. Alfred's hair got way more brunette. He was tall around 6'3 and when I went to look at his clothes he looked like he always shops at Ralph Lauren. When he laughed it sounded like money was constantly jumping out from his mouth.
"Hi, Alfred." I force a sweet smile and receive the hand he tolds out to me. "Nice to see you again."
"You too, Amilie." He smiles at me and I realise his eyes hadn't changed, they were still the same piercing blue ones as before.
"Hi Alfie, I'm Ollie." My boyfriend swerves round me and pulls gently on my hip.
"It's Alfred." Alfred says and looks down at the contact Ollie and I just made.
"I presume you guys are close then, huh?"
"He's my boyfriend." I turn to face Ols.
"That's right." Ollie says and watches me closely.
"Okay, chop, chop, let's sit down." Jaden rolls his eyes.
"Good idea, baby." Bella catches my eye and widens them to give me some sort of warning that I couldn't make out.
"Where should I sit?" Alfred looks around.
"Sit next there, next to Amilie." My father says as he draws his chair from the head of the table.
My cheeks immediately go red and before I had a chance to get back to my seat, Ollie pulls me in and whispers delicately in my ear. "I thought you said I have nothing to worry about."
I turn to face him with confusion spread all across my face.
"Stop being so fidgety then, baby."
"Sorry." I whisper back.
"You don't need to apologise." My boyfriend says as he leads me back to the table and draws out my chair for me to sit down.

I stare at the clock right above Jaden's head as I count down the minutes, wishing for this impromptu dinner to cease.
"So what's new with you, then?" Alfred bumps my shoulder.
"Huh?" I snap out of my trance but shift further to my right so he couldn't touch my shoulder again.
"What's up with Amilie Carter? 18 years old must be a blast."
"Er, nothing really."
"Then I know you are lying." He winks at me and my eyes widen in shock. "When I was 18 it was a blast."
"Yeah, but you are only turning 20 soon."
"Exactly."
"So not much of a difference."
"Not always true."
I just stare back at him unsure on what to say as his eyes twinkle back at me.
"You look different." He says as he tilts his head at me.
"Yeah, because the last time we properly talked was like 8 years ago."
"Keeping tabs on me now?" He smirks at me and I squirm in discomfort but keep a polite smile painted on. I spin my head to look at Ollie who, no surprise, was already staring at us both with jealousy marked all over his face.
Everyone around us were talking but it was like I could almost read his thoughts. They were the same as mine a few years back.
My face twists up in longing to be in his arms this very moment. As I turn back round to Alfred, I notice his eyes lingering somewhere they shouldn't be for a quick second.
My breasts.
He was checking me out and there was no hiding that.
