Chapter 16 Back to school

“Your skirt is in the dryer Francesca!” my mom shouts from her and dad’s room

“Okay thanks mom” I go to the laundry room and fish out my skirt through everyone else clothes

“Hey Franny!” I turn around and see Stephanie standing there, when did she come back?

“STEPH!” I screech and give her a hug “Are you okay?”

“Yeah, I’m good! Louise and I had a talk” she says

“What was her reason?”

“Stress, hormones but mostly just stupidity!”

“Hormones?”

“She’s prego AGAIN!” Stephanie screams “It’s Peter’s”

“Does she know it for a fact?”

“Your words not mine” we laughed

“I have to go get ready but will you be here when I come back”

“No, I’m going in the afternoon”

“Where you going?”

“India, with Elijah”

“Wow! I wish I was a journalist”

“I bet you do” she laughed and hugged me goodbye for now. I went back upstairs to get ready for another same school day!

I put my school shoes on and my jacket and checked my phone for any texts. Nope, not even from my amazing boyfriend Sean, I guess I’ll just have to see when I go to school!

I go into form and see Megan is sitting in her normal seat.

“Hey” she says while I approach my seat

“Hi” I say uncomfortable

“I’m sorry Fran, you had short term amnesia it wasn’t your fault and to prove I’m sorry here” she pulled from under the desk a bag from Next, I grinned

“Is it my dress?”

“Yep, I brought it back”

“Oh my gosh, Meg” and I hugged her “I love you, you know!”

“I love you too babes!” I took the bag of her and put it into my school bag

“YO EVERYONE!” everyone turns around and Eddie is there with a cigarette lit in his hand
