Perhaps's next summer?

Break ups

"No, no and no!" Caroline said to Evie as she lay in her bed petting Will.

"But, why!" Evie whined. "It'll be the last party of the year!"

"No kidding Evie, it's on news years eve. And no."

"Just tell me why?"

"You know why."

"You got drunk once! I bet no one remembers it."

"I don't care if anyone remembers it or not, I hurt Nic that night." She cuddled Will, even though he meowed his disagreement off it.

"What? He didn't even care!" Evie got up and took Will from Caroline.

Caroline glared at her.
"He does, every time we talk about it I can see it in his face." She looked away. "It was meant to be our first date."

Evie rolled her eyes heavily.
"I'm sure he's over it." She said as she held Will like a baby.

"I-" Caroline began, but was cut off when she heard knocking at the door. Two seconds later Ben opened it and walked in.
"Caroline can I borrow your lap-" he cut off when he saw Evie.

Evie and Ben were both looking at each other, frozen.

Caroline smirked. "Yeah it's over there." She pointed as she got up and left the room.

Give them some time to...talk. She thought.

She walked over to Shelley's room and knocked.

"Don't come in!" Shelley's voice shouted.

Caroline took a step back, surprised.
She heard something fall over.

"Are you okay?" She called.

"Hold on!" Shelley said.

A few seconds later, Shelley appeared at the door. Her expression was flustered and her hair was everywhere. Her usual mascara was running down her face. Caroline peeked in behind her and saw masses of tissues on the floor. It look like it had snowed.

She looked back at Shelley eyebrows raised. "Uh is um...everything...okay?"

Shelley stood up a bit taller. "Yes of course. Why wouldn't it be?" She asked sharply.
Caroline flinched.
"Well, have you seen your face in a while?" Shelley looked annoyed but went back in her room and looked in the mirror.
Caroline looked around the room. It was a mess. Her usual neat freak sister was in a mess. She heard a gasped and looked up at Shelley.
Shelley melted to the ground. Caroline quickly ran up to her.
"Shelley? What's happened?" She asked nervously.
"He..he..he." She couldn't seem to get the words out between gasps and tears.

"He broke up with me!" She whined. And went into a fit of cries.
Caroline held her for a while.
Dylan, Shelley's only ever boyfriend. Who always came to visit and had taken her to all three formal's. Caroline couldn't really understand it herself. She really had thought they would end up married, as did everyone else.

Shelley would be able to handle this, and it was probably just a misunderstanding. "You'll be fine." Caroline hushed her.
"Fucking Dick." Shelley muttered and then covered her face.
Caroline giggled a bit at that.
Shelley looked up as well and smiled.
But then her face fell.
Caroline stood up and walked to the door. Shelley preferred to deal with this stuff on her own. Caroline looked back at her from the door. Shelley was now lying on the floor curled in a ball.
