Girl

Chapter One

Alice :||

I hugged my mother and father, smiling proudly. I was off to London for my college education. Being a small girl from Wales, I was excited for the action of a big city.

"Alice Jones, you be careful now." my mother warned, squeezing my shoulders. I chuckled lightly, nodding my head. I picked up my bags and waved bye to my parents again.

That was a year ago. And I'm enjoying myself here in London. College is great! I have good grades, great friends, nothing could be better. My roommate and best friend, Madeline Daye, helps me understand the world and the music and the art.

Madeline pushed my side, "Come on, Alice. We have exams today." My eyes fluttered open at the word. I looked up at her with doubt on my face.

"Exams? Today?"

"Yes now get your ass out of bed and let's go." Madeline huffed. I smiled and nodded, hopping out of bed.

"Oh my God, you didn't." Madeline gasped, looking at my nightgown with unicorns on it.

"What? I like unicorns!" I said. Madeline just rolled her eyes and walked out the door. Right, exams are today. I major in Vocal Music, and I minor in Performing Arts. Madeline is pretty nifty on the guitar, and her voice is excellent. I think she'll join a band at one point or another.

I sat on my stool, braiding my long hair into its usually do. "How long do you have to take?" Madeline huffed. I held up my hand and did the "go away I am busy" motion.

I grabbed my outfit, a pink dress with some black heels, and grabbed my bag.

"Okay, fussy pants, let's go take our exams!" I giggled happily. Madeline chuckled and rolled her eyes.

Madeline is a joy to be friends with. She's so nice and caring. But she denies it all. She says it proves just how innocent I am.
