Lily P.O.V
I was never the first. Never picked first for sports. Never the first one boys looked at. Never the first person any of my friends called when they where lonely. Not the first child born either. In fact the youngest. Now the only child. Both sisters died in a car crash a year ago. Though I was not the first I was always the smartest. Always had A's. My friends always called me nerd, geek, and book worm because of my grades and I really like to reads.
The name my closer friends called me was "The Painting Siren" for my artistic ability and voice. My best friend, Elaine, has told me I need to go into the singing business but I refuse. Not that I dont want to cause I really do, but im scared. Well im scared of a lot of things like ghosts, being stalked, blood, new people and singing in front of people. Anyway its a week from my 19th birthday and im writing down ideas on what to do that night when I get a call.
"Hey o!" I answer with my favorite greeting.
"Hey you! What are you doing?" Elaine says through the phone.
"Just planning. Whats up?"
"Well I was wondering if you where going to Lucus's b-day party tonight?"
"I've told you this a thousand times. No im not. I dont even like Luke. "
"Please. James will be there." Oh no she didn't.
"Dont play the James card."
"Come on. We'll get you all pretty and he'll be sure to notice you."
"No he won't. He doesn't even notice when I bump into him at school."
"Im sure he does because you're so gorgeous. All guys notice you."
"Not even close to being right," I said knowing she's just trying to cheer me up. "Plus you know how I get around him."
"Then go for me. Not him or Luke but me. I need you there." She said putting all her sweetness into the last sentence. I sat there looking at the list I was making thinking a party before mine might give me some more ideas.
"Fine I'll go." I said giving up.
"Yesssss... Meet me at my house in half an hour with a suit case of your cutest clothes and all your makeup." After a pause she adds "Also pjs and anything else you might need. You are definitely staying at my house."
"K. See you then. Love you."
"Love you too."
Then she hung up
