So here I am. Following my dreams and going to London. Finally doing something I've always wanted to do. Being a phychiatrist. Oh I'm Harley by the way. I'm 22 and you probably don't know what I'm going on about. Today is the day I get on that train and leave Leicester forever. I'm going London and finally living my dreams. Well it's not only me leaving. I could never do it on my own. It's just me and my best friend Lia.
"Harley! Stop day dreaming! Get on the train!" Lia shouted. She laughed
"Sorry!" I said. I quickly walked on the train and took a seat next to Lia. I always felt self conscious about being around Lia. She was so beautiful and bubbly and confident and all I had was the fact I was smart. Lia always told me I was being stupid and called me beautiful when I never felt it.
"Harley.. Look over there" She said nudging my arm.
"What?" I laughed
"Look? Over there? Them cute boys? Damn"
'Don't be stupid Lia!" I joked. Ok so it wasn't like me to admit a random stranger was cute but damn. There were two boys. One was quite short. Well compared to the other guy. And wore a hat. And the other was... well perfect. Tall. Blue eyes. Fucking DIMPLES! He was the one that caught my eye. They were both wearing matching shirts. Sidemen. I wonder what that is.
"Come on Harley. You only ever do that weird awkward laugh when you like someone. Admit it!"
"Ok fine. He is pretty cute.."
"Really? Which one? I like the one with the hat."
"The tall one.."
"Ooohh" she joked.
"Oh shit Lia! He's looking!" I said. He stared at me and smiled.
"Smile back!"
"I can't!"
We finally arrived at London and went to our apartment. It was big and had a perfect view of the centre of London.
A couple of hours later...
We had unpacked all our bags and moved things to suitable places. Everything looked AMAZING!
"Harley?"
"Yes Lia?"
"Can we pretty please go out tonight?"
"Where exactly?"
"A night club?.."
"Lia! I can't go to them places! You know how I feel about night clubs!"
"Please? Just this once! You'll never have to do it again! I have a little black dress if you want to wear it."
"Really?"
"Yeah! Please!"
"Fine! But just this once!"
I can't believe I agreed to this! Ugh! This isn't me at all! I don't like parties! I don't like dressing like a slut hoping to get laid! That's not me! And I actually agreed! She held my hand and dragged me into her room.
"Right let's get started! Let's start with this outfit.. Hmm.. It's a bit. Yano. Boring. Old fashioned? Let's change this for.. Let's say a black dress? A short one!" She said excitedly. She got up just before I could say anything.
"Tadaaa!" She said presenting me the black dress. So ok it was kinda pretty but it wasn't me at all!
"Li-"
"Go on.. Try it on!' I went to a different room to get changed and came back in with my dress on. Ok so I looked different. A good different. I guess..Ok so I was now changing in the girl I didn't want to be. But it was only for this one night! And it's never gonna happen again anyways! And yes ik I look like a complete slag but oh well!
"Damn! You look amazing! Can you do your makeup? So I can like get dressed?"
"Yeah sure."
"Just don't do your makeup to boring now!"
After a while she came back into the bedroom. It sounds mean but her dress made me feel less slutty. Like mine was revealing but hers! I guess she could get away with it. She was really pretty and she could get a away with wearing a bloody bin bag! Too far?
"Ready?"
"Ready" I said as I turned around.
"Oh my lord. What lipstick is that? It's beautiful! I love matte so much! And your eyes! The mascara! The eyeliner! God I underestimated you!"
"Really?"
"Of course! Please promise me you'll wear that exact makeup from now on?"
"Ok.. But do you think Josh will like it?"
"Obviously!"
Ok pause so ik at this point your like who is Josh? Well it's my boyfriend. You might know him Josh Bradley? Zerkaa? No? How about illuminate? See! Just by saying the word illuminate you think of him! 😂
"Right now we've got everything ready now it's time for the part that can change our whole outfit all together.. It could either make it bad. Or make it good."
"Over dramatic much?" I laughed
"Come on! This is important! This is the first and last time you'll ever be doing this and I want it to be special!"
"Ok that sounded wrong.." I giggled
"Ugh! Harley!?"
"Sorry.."
I picked up a random pair of black heels and put them on.
"Oh my god! Harley! How did you know? "
"Know what? I'm lost"
"Those shoes go perfectly with that dress! You go girl!""Oh God.." I laughed.
Ok so I sound crazy right now but I'm not a girly girl like lia is trying to make me! I'm a total boy! No I didn't have a sex change if that's what your thinking. I like trainers and FIFA and superheros! Ok so I sometimes wear the latest trends like blue jeans and crop tops but tbh I was wearing all that before it became a thing. The girliest thing I own is an adidas crop jumper.. You know because everyone seems to be wearing that now a days? Yeah well I'm the creator of trends. No but being serious this is why I don't want to go out tonight!
"Come on Harley! The taxi is here!"
"What?"
"Taxi?"
"I'm not ready this isn't me! Can I please?"
"Fine!"
I smiled and put on my white superstars instead.
"Come on! Them cute boys might be there!"
"I doubt it!"
"And if they are?"
"It's not gonna make a difference I'm shy Af!"
"I'll make you! Now come on!"
And off we went to the night club!
