Lizzie’s P.O.V

I awoke to the morning sun shining brightly into my eyes. I stretched and then got up and went downstairs to find my family sitting at the table eating breakfast.

“Good morning, Sleepy head” My mum chuckled, I hadn’t realised that I had major bed head and bright red, tear stained cheeks.

I must’ve cried in my sleep, I thought

I quickly ran upstairs to fix myself up,I decided to jump in the shower, After a good long soak I got changed into some Jeans and a top, I went into my bathroom and brushed my hair and left it out, flowing down onto my shoulders, then I put a little bit of mascara, eyeshadow and clear lipgloss on and went back downstairs to find Claire waiting on the couch.

“Hey Gurl” I said with great enthusiasm.

“Hey…” Claire said looking rather down considering she was graduating! This wasn’t like her at all.

“Are you ok Claire Bear?” I asked sitting down next to her and forcing her to look at me.  

“um…...nothing…..just…...um…..I don’t know…...don’t worry about me” she stuttered in between sobs.

“CLAIRE” I yelled at her getting madder at every moment, I got up and ran upstairs to my room, every time something is wrong she always does this and she never tells me what is wrong.

‘Knock Knock’

“what” I sniffled

“um….can I come in” Claire asked shyly

“whatever…..” I replied

The door squeaked open, Silence filled the room

Claire’s P.O.V

“I’m sorry….” I cried, while running over to Liz to give her a one of my clairebear hugs

“its fine “ Lizzie said while crying into my shoulder

“I am sorry but its just something that happened last night with my sister and I and i’m sorry I took it out on you I didn’t mean to, honest,” I replied feeling bad that I had taken it out on my best friend. I waited for a few minutes in silence. What was Liz thinking? Would she hate me for not telling her what was wrong?

“Please say something Liz,” I said begging.

“ I am happy that you finally told me what was wrong….but i am still not happy that you didn’t tell me first off” She replied giving me one of her famous looks. I nodded sadly hanging my head.

“I’m sorry it’s just we had a fight and we never fight, I’m going to miss her so much,” I said the tears still streaming down my face (and the tears stream down my face… sorry just had to do it lol). Liz patted my back and rubbed soothing circles on my back making me slowly calm down.

after about fifteen minutes just talking together we decide to get up and grab some lunch (yes, it was already lunch time). We hopped into Lizzie’s car and she started to drive to starbucks. When we arrived we got out of the car and jogged into starbucks, the rain was pouring down so hard like there was no tomorrow. as soon as we walked in we warmed up straight away. it was freezing outside. Liz ordered a buttered croissant and a caramel frappuccino  and I ordered a mixed berry cheesecake and a double chocolate chip frappuccino. Our orders came out really quickly which was surprising because there were a lot of people there. We finished up our so called lunch and left to go back to my place on the way we stopped passed Lizzie’s house so she could get changed at my place for the big part of the day, It started at 3pm so we had  about an hour before we had to leave because the place it was being held was about a half an hour away from my place. Liz pulled into my driveway  and we ran up to my room and started to get ready, Liz went and to the main bathroom and had a quick shower and I went into my ensuite and had a quick rinse and then got out and blow dryed my hair I decided to leave it out and let it flow onto my shoulders and naturally curl at the ends, I put on a little bit of mascara and then added a lite cover eyeshadow and put some pink lipgloss & lipstick on and went to my closet, I opened the door and let all the clothes take my breath away, I finally reach the end of my wardrobe and looked straight at the dress that one of the most beautiful looking dresses ever……… Once I was changed and Liz was ready it was time to leave.
