7am, that's the time I woke up. I needed to be up before 11, not freaking 7 o'clock in the morning. I guess an early start would do me fine. I pull the duvet off me, with a yawn. I make my way towards the bathroom to do my business. I glance at myself in the mirror "It'll be okay, I know it will" I tell myself with a sad smile. I brush my teeth before I leave the bathroom. I want to look presentable to Caroline, the first time she saw me I was in my sweats and a hoodie. Great first impression. Well, I guess it isn't a first impression, she's seen me before..I can't remember her at all though. Nor can I remember her son Ryan.


I walk towards my closet and glance at my clothing, I pull out a pair of black jeans and my favorite shirt, that says 'I like pizza, and you' I tie a red flannel around my waist, and I add my best combat boots. I have no idea what to do with my hair, so I just leave a braid down the side with, a black bow. Finally, I look presentable. I make my way downstairs to see Caroline sitting at the kitchen table, on her phone


"Oh Kiera! Don't you look beautiful!" She says giving me a smile. I blush and thank her. "I'll make breakfast shall I Caroline?" I ask glancing at her. "Yes please, anything that isn't boring would be fine. Just give me 5 minutes and I'll help you out" She says standing up and making her way towards the sitting room. I don't take notice of why she left until, I begin making the pancakes. Private conversation probably.  I've finished the pancakes, and I begin setting the table. Placing down three plates. One for Caroline, one for me and one for the pancakes. I'm not sure what Caroline likes on her pancakes so I leave every possible item on the table. "Doesn't this look tasty!" Caroline says, damn. She startled me. "Why, thank you. It's the only thing I can make" I say letting out a chuckle.


After we've eaten our food and cleared the table. We make our way to the shops. Caroline drags me towards a shop, I've never been in, nor do I know the name of it. I look around the shop and gasp. The price tags on these items have more zeros than the matrix coding. Okay, yeah I'm exaggerating. A hell of a lot. Caroline seems to notice me looking at the price tags because she says "Don't you worry, choose whatever you like. No need to worry about the price, If you're happy I'm happy " she says and embraces me in a hug, her hugs are just so loving. "Thank you Caroline, for everything" I say, embracing her in another hug. "Don't be daft! Now go try these on" She says handing me dozens of dresses and skirts.


An two hours later, I've finally narrowed it down to two dresses. A black dress, that reaches just below my knee. It has lacy for the arm area and it's a beautiful plain front, it matches my curves. Or a red dress that reaches below my knee also, it has a flower pattern at the front. It also matches my curves. "Kiera, it's up to you but I think the black one suits your beautiful blonde hair" she says winking at me. I loved the black dress more than the red one. So the black dress it is! "I've chosen the black dress" I say gathering my items and making my way to the woman behind the counter. She gives me a glance, then a second glance before saying something. "I'm sorry very sorry for your loss." she says before shooting her hand out to allow me to shake it. I take her hand in mine and gently shake her hand "Thank you very much, if she was still here she wouldn't want us being sad aye? Just have to keep our heads up" I say giving her a smile before handing her the dress. "You're a strong girl" she says. I have no reply to that, so I just give her a smile. "Everything alright Kiera?" Caroline says shooting me a questioning look "Yes, I'm coming." I say giving her a chuckle "Impatient  are we?" I ask, walking towards her. "No. just hungry. C'mon let's go to the food court." She says.


I've chosen to eat a chicken wrap, best decision ever. It was literally orgasmic. I take another bite out of the wrap and let out a moan. Caroline bursts out laughing "Everything alright there Kiera?" I glance at her and start blushing "I'm sorry, it's just so good!" I say covering my face. "Hey, don't worry about it. It looks tasty alright!" She says giving me a smile "Are you ready then?" She asks "Yes, I am. Home time then!" I take at my phone and take a look at it. It's already 6 o' clock, lord how long did we stay here for?

As we enter my house. A body jumps out at us. I let out a scream "Holy cow, who the f*ck are you?!" I say moving towards the kitchen, my body still facing the unknown person. "I feel very offended you don't remember me." Wait, I recognize that voice! "Spencer! Oh my lord, how did you get here!" I say jumping into his arms and wrapping my arms and legs around him. Spencer lives in California, which is a good thing because I'll be moving there soon. "I heard my bestest girl is down in the dumps. I'm sorry for your loss but knowing you, you don't want pity" he says shaking his head "Caroline this is Spencer" I say looking at her "Don't worry, I know Spencer. he's a friend of my son. I know I seem very rude but I saw pictures of you and him around so I called him and told him that you've been upset" She says giving me an apologetic smile "Thank you so much! Thank you, thank you , thank you!" I say running over to her nearing knocking her over. She lets out  a laugh and so does Spencer "No problem Sweetie." She says hugging me back. 


"Hey Kiera, wake up c'mon I'll take you up to bed." Spencer says in his sleepy voice. Holy cow, he may be my best-friend but his sleepy voice is H-O-T. Spencer carries me into my room and places me on my bed and tucks me in. "May I take a pillow for the sofa?" he asks "No, please stay with me?" I say blushing and smothering my face in the pillow. He chuckles. "Anything for my bestest girl" he says giving me a wink. "I have my fathers shirt and I'm sure there's a pants in the dresser If you'd like those" I say smiling at him "If you don't mind" He says. He walks over to the dresser and takes the pants a shirt out. He changes right infront of me. I can't help myself from looking at him "Take a picture, it lasts longer" He whispers  sending me a smirk. I groan and smother myself in the pillow once again. "Goodnight Spencer." I say "Goodnight my bestest girl" He replies. Before I allow myself to sleep I feel the bed dip and Spencer wrap his arm around me. Not going to lie. It makes me feel safe. 


Authors Note! 

Hiya guys, how are you?:) I hope you liked this chapter. 

Okay Spencer was Kiera's best friend growing up and he had to move away. He's friends with one of Caroline sons she called him because Kiera was sad and he flew out here. Hope that clears things up :P
