When things get confusing

 I have known Liam for 14 years. I am about to go to his 17th birthday, in a month he'll be going to my 16th birthday.

I looked into the mirror and tried to hide the creases in my dress. I brushed through my light mousse brown hair again revealing my natural high and low lights. It was Liam that had helped me pick out the dress it is a loose short dress but what I love about it is the netting that covers it and the small belt around my waist. I applied another layer of mascara around my blue eyes then walked downstairs. I picked up the blue stripy bag with his present in and called my mom. I slipped on my small heels and opened the front door. My mom came bonding down the stairs and ran out the door,

“come on luc! We're running late!”

 “mum you know Liam won't mind.”

 “that's just not the point though!”

 I sat in the car and pulled my seatbelt on. We arrived in about 5 minutes. I got out the car and saw Liam. I walked up behind him and stuck my fingers in his rib which made him jump, he turned around and picked me up and squeezed me tightly I giggled,

 "Hey...Liam...I can't breath...put me down!" I gasped and tried to push his arms off me. He eventually let go and fell to the ground. He looked me up and down,

"nice dress whoever choose that must have really good taste! In guessing a tall handsome guy, generous, kind, family friend, very good looking! Have I forgotten anything? Oh yeah! Good looking!"

I laughed at him before repling

'"oh and don't forget modiste!'

We laughed together he the held out his hand,

"cough cough!"

"here you go Liam your present from me and my mum."

"aww that's so nice of you! Thank you!"

I laughed again then went inside to grab a cheese sandwich I saw liam's mom Sally on the way and we hugged,

"Lucy! How are you!"

"I'm good thanks sal, you?"

"I'm great thanks. Have you spoken to Liam?"

"of course I have after he almost hugged me to death!"

"oh you know he means best!" she winked and walked off to talk to some of the other guests, I was slightly puzzled but carried on eating anyway.

I just finished the last mouth full of cheese into my mouth when Liam came and sat next to me. He instantly started laughing and stroked a but if cheese of my cheek. I blushed and wiped my mouth,

"hey having fun?" I asked liam.

"yeah but you are very quiet I want you to come and meet some of my friends!" he took my hand and dragged me through the crowd.

"hey Selena, this is Lucy, lucy, selena!"

"hey," she answered sounding very unimpressed

"hey." I answered trying to sound as bored back. Liam looked between us and saw the awkwardness and drove me away from her,

"well that was fun!" he smiled at me and I laughed.

"it's getting loud down here Lucy do you wanna go upstairs? I tidied me room!"

"ok go on then."

We walked up the stairs and got away from the noise he opened the door and I walked in and sat down on his bed.

"you call this tidy?!"

"yeah" he replied

"well the curtains are shut you have a t shirt lying on the floor and boxers coming from underneath you pillow!"
