It was two days ago since I had last saw Luke; two days since we exchanged those important three words. Unfortunately, my parents had decided on dragging me, along with my brother, out of Westward for the day to go shopping yesterday and today was the day Azure was coming so I doubted I would see Luke till the following morning. Nonetheless, I was buzzing for her to arrive. I hadn't seen her in a few weeks and I couldn't wait to show her around Westward Bay. After all, she had had to live with me going on about the place for the majority of our school lives, so it would be nice for her to actually see it for herself and meet everybody.

"EMILIA!" Azure squealed.

"HEYYYY!" I yelled as the two of us ran excitedly towards the other.

"Em- your hair?!  Since when did you dye your hair purple?!" she exclaimed, taking a strand of the violet coloured ends and examining it between her fingers.

"Micha-um, Luke's friend did it for me! Do you like it?"

"Like it? I fucking love it!"she exclaimed, pulling me into a tight embrace.

"I've missed you!" I whined as I hugged her back just as tightly.

"I've missed you too! I can't believe I'm actually here!" she squealed, letting go of me and clapping her hands excitedly.

"I can't believe it either!" I giggled at her exuberant actions. "Come on, the bus back to Westward is in about five minutes! Here, let me take one of those bags..." I said, lugging one of her hefty luggage carriers over my shoulder.

"It's so good to breathe in sea air again." She smiled, looking out at the sea view from the open top bus we were currently sitting on.

"Can't beat it," I laughed, taking in a deep breathe of the fresh ocean air that I had been taking for granted the last few weeks.

"So... How are you?" She started, looking over at me, adjusting her sunglasses which perched on the top of her light brunette hair.

"Good, just so happy to be here! And even happier that you're here!" I smiled, nudging her arm.

"I'm so excited to see everything, and meet everyone!" She beamed.

"I can't wait to show you!" I giggled. "Oh, um, if it's alright with you, we're popping round Sally's apartment a bit later."

"Yeah, that's fine! I can't wait to meet the famous Sally!" she laughed.

"Oh, um, Sally's not actually here. George and Luke's parents and Sally and Peter, their grandparents,  all left last weekend. You know, so that Luke and those mates of his I was telling you about have more room to stay..."
