~Lydia~

I was stunned that i had a new friend and for once i didn't have to spend the day by myself. But i kept telling myself not to get used to it, Allison wouldn't be my friend for long.

It was strange though, because i was so used to being by myself, hanging round by myself, working by myself, doing everything by myself. But now i had a friend with long brown ringlets who followed me everywhere, everytime people saw her walking with me they would stare and whisper, sometimes even make remarks about why she would want to be my friend. But Allison just brushes it off, she doesn't seemed to be fussed, yet.

And everytime i saw her brother Isaac, he would always look over at me. I wasn't sure to why he looked at me though, probably just to take the mick out of me like everyone else does.

It was now last lesson, thankfully. I always found that it was a relief to leave this place, but now not so much because i have a friend.

"Hey Lydia?" Allison had her arms folded. Oh was she talking to me? i guess i was in daydream land.

"Huh, what? Say again." I mumbled.

"I said did you want to come to my place tonight?" She asked me.

"Sure. My parents won't mind, they don't get back from work till late anyway." I told her. It was true, most of the time i actually think that my parents don't give a care in the world about me. They're always off working full time, leaving me, their daughter, home alone in a large, deluxe house.

"Okay." She smiled. So throughout this lesson i couldn't focus. I was super excited, no one had ever invited me to their house before.

The bell went signalling that the day was over. My excitement grew even bigger. We then went towards Allison's car, she hesitated before unlocking it.

"Ok, so why are we waiting?" i asked her, it was like we were waiting for someone. Does Allison have a boyfriend already? It really wouldn't surprise me if she did.

"We're waiting for my brother. Isaac, you know him right?" She responded, and i nodded to answer her question.

"Well his motorbike is in the garage, so in the mean time i have to give him a ride to and from school." She explained, right that clears everything up. Motorbike? Well I guess he really is a bad boy, strange because his sister seems really nice.

A figure in the far distance came towards us, black jeans and a white shirt. It was a guy, i could tell about that, he had his hands in his pockets. He had brown/blackish hair with deep brown eyes, he looked really good actually. I then realised it was Isaac, that's just awkward.

Allison finally unlocked the car, i sat in the back by myself. Isaac had a confused expression on his face, like the why-is-she-here expression.

"Oh Isaac this is my friend Lydia. She's coming to ours for a bit." Allison informed him, i gave an awkward smile, but he didn't even acknowledge me.

We drove for a short amount of time, before pulling up outside a lovely, white mansion. I'm presuming that she's pretty rich too. Isaac instantly got out of the car, he didn't hesitate or wait.

"Don't take it personally Lydia, he's like it with all new people. He doesn't like change, but don't worry, he'll get used to you. He'll have to, because believe me he will be seeing a lot more of your face." Allison smiled. I think she's just saying it to reassure me, i bet if Allison's friend was pretty then he wouldn't act this way.

We got out of Her car and walked towards the front door. I had extreme butterflies, i was anxious especially if Allison's parents were going to be there, i don't know what to say or what to do. I've never been in this position before. Allison opened the front door and went in, i followed her and closed the door behind me.

I looked around, her house was brilliant. It was spacious and the furniture was lovely, the flowery wallpaper and the shiny laminate flooring. I was officially jealous.

I followed Allison like a lost puppy as she walked through her house and went to the kitchen. I saw a woman sat down at the table reading a magazine. She looked a little like Allison, but obviously older. She was Allison's and Isaac's mother, i could tell by the resemblance.

"Mum, this is my friend Lydia." Allison told her mum. Her mum looked up from her magazine and removed her reading glasses before looking at me. "Nice to meet you Lydia. You look like a very nice girl by the way you portray yourself." Her mum smiled, it wasn't that bad, i didn't know why i was so anxious. Her mum seems really nice!

"Thank-you." i blushed.

"You know, my son Isaac?" she asked me, i nodded in response. "Well he takes an interest in pretty girls-" she continued, this caused me to blush even more.

"-Mum! Come on Lydia, lets to upstairs." Allison told me,

"Ok. It was nice to meet you Ma'am." I smiled at Lydia's mum.

"Please call me Sarah." she told me.

"Sarah." i smiled once again, before going up to Allison's room.

I had a great day at Allison's, she gave me a makeover, we watched movies, we made daisy chains all sorts. Her mum even offered me to stay the night, but i couldn't. My parents wouldn't of allowed it and i actually kinda missed the comfort of my own room.

In the end, i stayed at Allison's till about 9pm. Late i know, but time goes fast when you're having fun and my parents weren't even home when i got back anyway.

I went upstairs and slouched myself down onto my bed. This time yesterday, i had no friends and had no idea what it was like to have friends. If you would of told me yesterday that i would end up having a friend i would of never believed you.

I now get what people mean when they say 'There's nothing better than friendship.' And all this time i really have been missing out... Because having a friend preoccupies me from the reality of my life.
