Lucy's Pov

It's finally Friday and I couldn't be more happy about it.

It's been a hectic week for me, from teacher's loading me with work, having to get used to seeing Niall everyday, and hearing mum go on and on about the wedding.

It also means I'm one week closer to being ungrounded. Even though I'm still grounded mum did give me permission to go dress shopping with Zoe this weekend with the condition of coming straight home afterwards. The only reason she allowed that was one because Zoe always got her way with my mum and two it was for her wedding. Of course she wasn't going to say no to that.

I absolutely hate dress shopping, I've always had problems feeling comfortable in my own body and trying on dresses never helps my situation. I went along with it, however because I wanted ,no needed, to get out of the house.

The guy's might be joining us as well. I believe that'll make it a bit more fun especially with Jake and Dylan.

Zoe is meant to be picking me up in a few minutes so we can make our way over to some boutique she found online. If she doesn't find her dress there, we're gonna meet up with the guy's at the shopping center.

I heard the sound of a car honking making me look at my bedroom window. Zoe was parked outside furiously honking at me. I rolled my eyes before picking up my messenger bag and walking out my room.

"I'm leaving mum see you later." I yelled from the front door.

I heard a "be careful sweetheart" as I closed the door. I slowly made my way to Zoe's car just to get in her nerves a little more. She honked at me once more before I finally sped up.

"It's as if your dreading to go." She said, driving off before I even fastened my seatbelt.

" 'm not just trying to annoy you ,is all" I smiled over at her.

"Well it's working." she rolled her eyes at me.

"Good. " I said satisfied. There was a comfortable silence between us before she spoke again.

"So how you feeling, you know with Niall being back and all. " She asked. I knew this conversation was awaiting me ever since Monday.

" I'm not as bad as I thought I was going to be actually." I informed.

"What do you mean? " She asked sounding a bit confused.

"For starters it's not as awkward as I thought it would be, yeah it's still a tad bit awkward but not how I expected it. Well to be fair we haven't really spoken to each other that much but I don't know I just thought it was going to be different. I thought maybe he was going to make more of an effort to talk and explain thing's to me you know? I don't know. I know it's too soon though you know because he just arrived back. Maybe he's waiting for the right time to talk, or maybe he doesn't even care anymore." I ranted. This was one of those moments where I over think everything and Zoe gives me her advice on it. Which always helps.
" I feel it is too soon maybe he is waiting. Just don't over think things love. Time will tell. What's going to happen was meant to happen and what doesn't happen wasn't meant to happen. For now just enjoy today because you won't have another day like today until next week. " She said taking her eyes off the road to look at me for a brief second before focusing back on the road.

"What would I do without you." I let out a small laugh.

"Honestly your life would suck soo much. " She said stretching the word 'so' out.

"Hey! " I protested.

"You know it's true" She laughed. I didn't say anything in response but I do agree with her my life wouldn't be the same without her in it.
