                                                          Chapter Three: Getting ready

Quinton looked me in the eyes with a grin and said,"hello pretty." I try to get away but I'm in chains again. I spit at him. "You shouldn't do that" he says while wiping the spit off. I screamed as he killed me it didn't hurt as much as the betrayal did. I asked him something about our friendship (I don't remember) and he said no. I wake up to find my dog on top of me,

"Ginger get off" I say. She looks at me with incident eyes but she gets off.

"My life sucks" I sigh.

I should go to Quinton's house today I thought, he needs to know. I go in the kitchen for breakfast and call Quinton to see what he is doing today. I dial Quinton's number, a guys voice answers "hello this is Quinton".

"Hey Quinton its Grace wanna hang out today?"

OK" he says, "oh wait I'm having a party today, do you wanna come?"

"Yes I do!" I answer "you know I love parties! Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"Sorry I was really busy and I was just going to tell you today".

"Ok" I say not knowing what to do.

"Good, come around 1:00pm so you can help me get ready".

"OK will do bye!" I said.

"Bye"

I find something to eat. It is a cereal called Frosted Flakes. I finish eating it put my bowel in the sink and head for my room. I have a nice medium house its four bedroom two bath, but I do wish we have a upstairs almost everyone I know has one. But we do have a basement and I love it! I look at the clock and it was 11:18 oh wow I slept in late I thought, but I still have some time, wait how am I going to get to Quinton's house? Maybe Quinton can pick me up, I'll call him.

 I pick up my phone and dial his number again, he picks up "oh hey Grace, wow two calls in a row I am popular to today!" he jokes.

"Ha ha ha" I say "no, I'm just calling to see if you can pick me up at 12:30 and take me to your place".

"OK I will", he says "your lucky I'm here to drive you around everywhere".

"Thanks again Quinton you a life saver!" I say.

"No problem, bye" he says.

 "Oh and I almost forgot!" I quickly say,"who is coming to the party"?

"Same old same old but you can invite someone to come if you like" he said.

"OK thanks I will invite..........hmm Jessie, and Maria, and I guess Lily, do you know if they can ride with us?"

"The more the merrier" he says sarcastically.

"Thanks bye!' I say like I didn't hear his sarcasm, and I hang up the phone.

I text Lily, Maria, and Jessie to see if they can come everyone is cool with meeting at my place at 12:00 but Lily can't come to the party sadly she had to go to the doctors because she has breast cancer. I look at what I should wear and finally I decide a black dress that is a little below the knees that has a bow belt, I just left my hair down nothing special, black pumps and for my eyes I did a hint of smokey eyes and earrings I put on black roses. Some people would think I am a "fashion girl" but I am not. Its 11:52 and no one has arrived yet. 'Ding dong ding dong' and once again I spoke to soon. Someone just arrived.

"I got it!" I yelled running to the door. It was Jessie in black leggings with a pink sparkly top, rose eye shadow with some sparkly black flats, her brown hair in a bun with Bobbi pins in it, and pink pearl earrings.
