Chapter 12

It was the day of the party. Everyone was excited for it and we had sold a lot of tickets. I only had one lesson that day so I took the decorations round to the pub ready to set up later. I arrived back at school and walked into the sixth form block and everyone was staring. I went and sat besides Calvin.

"Why's everyone staring at me?"

"Urm... well..."

"What Cal? What's going on?"

"Aaron had a fight with Finnley when you were gone." my jaw dropped. I'm sure I took most of the oxygen away from the room trying to get my head around it.

"What do you mean? What happened? What..."

"Well when you left Finnley was watching you so Aaron just started shouting at him and everything and they just started shoving each other and Aaron's brother had to break them up."

"Is Aaron ok?"

"Oh yeah they didn't hit each other but they would have if it wasn't for Darryl." just then Aaron walked in.

"Are you ok Aaron. Cal just told me what happened." he slumped down on the chair beside me.

"Yeah I'm fine. I just hate the way he's treated you and I've only been here for 2 weeks. Has he always been like this?"

"Well he used to pick on me a bit but he never really spoke to me because I wasn't in the 'cool' group."

Finnley walked into the room and I could feel Aaron flinch. I put my arm on his and looked at him, his bright green eyes twinkling. He settled back in his seat but carried on glaring at Finnley. I tried to distract him but whatever I did his gaze was fixed on him.

I was so glad we were having this party tonight just so I could try and forget about everything.

"Hey Rox are you ready for me to do your hair now?"

"Yeah please Becca I'm rubbish at it." I sat in front of her desk facing the mirror. She straightened my fringe and curled the rest of my hair loosely. It looked really great and I was so chuffed with it. We did our make-up and put on our dresses and shoes (or in my case shoe) and were ready to go.

Becca had agreed to come down early to the pub with me to get the decorations sorted.

We got to the pub by 4 o'clock so we had plenty of time to get the place ready.

Becca did most of the step ladder work and I handed her the decorations.

"It looks good guys. You've done a great job" my cousin said from behind the bar. "Do you fancy a drink?"

"Yeah please cuz I'll have a Smirnoff ice." he handed me the drink and I sat on the bar stool. Becca had a drink before we finished off the decorations.

By the time we finished, it was just about time for people to start arriving. I took the boxes into the back room and tidied up.

By the time I got back into the main room, loads of people had arrived. Most of my friends had arrived and I could see them in the corner so I grabbed my crutches and made my way over to them.

"Hey Rox the place looks great. Did you get any help?"

"Yeah I did Cal, Becca helped me and no-one else." I chuckled to myself. I was adamant I was going to have a good time out with my mates.
