I will find you, I promise.

Chapter 5

Premiere
"Charlottteeeee!!! Wake up!" I shouted.
"I'm coming, Bea!" She came slowly around the corner and saw me.
"CHARLOTTE, GET DRESSED!" I shouted again.
"I'm going." She laughed.
I checked my watch again and tapped my foot. I quickly opened my bag and made sure I had everything; photos to sign, a pen, water, food and tissues (I'd need them.)
I straightened my jacket and brushed my jeans. I was already nervous and we weren't even on our way.
She came downstairs again and we both smiled excitedly.
"Ready?" She asked with a wink.
"I fucking hope so." We laughed again.
We linked arms and shouted goodbye to her mum.
The cold air outside cooled my red hot face instantly and I breathed out slowly.
"What are you going to say first then?"
"I don't know, probably just blurt out something like: you're amazing and I love you so much." I laughed awkwardly.
"Hey, there's going to be lots of people here but i'm going to make sure that nothing happens to you, okay?" She looked me dead in the eye, after reading my face.
"Thank you." I smiled again.
"Now, seeing as we're pretty much the first here, where would you like to stand?"
"Right at the front obviously!"
We headed towards the rope and placed our bags on the floor.
*3 long hours later*
"Bea..." Charlotte stood us slowly and slung her bag over her shoulder.
"Yeah?" I questioned and stood with her.
"She's...she's over there." Charlotte's eyes opened, as did mine when I saw her.
A security guard opened the door of her black car and helped her out. She looked so beautiful, with a red dress and her hair falling down her back.
"Charlotte...i'm going to die." I whispered.
"Don't worry, so am I." She whispered back.
She made her way down the line, stopping to take photos and sign posters. People we screaming but me and Charlotte were the only ones crying. We'd waited years for this moment and she was just inches from where we were shakily standing.
I wiped the streaming tears from my cheeks as I held out my shaky hand and my phone.
"Hey, don't cry. You don't want to be crying in your photo right?"
She was there. In front of us. Talking to us.
"N-no." We laughed quietly.
She looked up at us and hugged me.
My heart was beating so fast, I think it was sending blood to the core of the Earth.
"Who am I signing this for?" She asked as she pulled away.
"B-Beatrice." I stammered.
She looked me dead in the eye and asked me to repeat it.
"My name is Beatrice." I replied, more confident this time.
"Okay, thank you, sorry can I take a photo with you?" She asked, sniffling slightly.
"Okay." I said, a little confused.
I handed her my phone and she took the photo. I moved back but she got out her phone too.
"Can I have one?" She asked.
I moved forward and smiled again.
She winked and took a photo with Charlotte.
"What the hell just happened?" I asked.
"Beatrice, I have no fucking idea." We laughed and hugged each other.

1 hour later
We walked home from the premiere, after getting dinner at McDonald's.
"She hugged me, Charlotte. She touched me and wanted a photo on HER phone."
"I know, Bea!! It's amazing. She's amazing!" Charlotte replied.
"This was everything I have ever hoped for, thank you." We hugged again.
"Now, I hope this has improved your mood because you're sleeping round mine tonight and I don't want a sad Bea."
We laughed and linked arms.
"It has, don't you worry." I winked.
"Can I ask you something?" Charlotte said.
"Sure, fire away." I turned to her.
"Why did you faint in English?"
"Urm..." My face blushed and I turned away. "Sarah made some comments when you were at drama and it hit me hard. I went to the bathroom and..."
I stopped and Charlotte had already wrapped her arms around me.
"I'm quitting drama club, i'm not leaving you alone at lunch." She pulled away.
"You will do nothing of the sort!" I said.
"I will if she's picking on you." She said defiantly.
"No, Charlotte you will not." I said, as defiantly.
"Fine will you promise me one thing?" She asked.
"Sure." I replied.
"Tell me if she ever makes comments again?"
"Okay, I promise."
"Now, what movies are we going to watch tonight? I was thinking AK marathon to mark the occasion?" We laughed and linked arms again.
---------
"Charlotte! Literally hurry the fuck up, I could grow an oak tree in the time it's taking you to get changed!"
"Sorry, I have to pick the matching pjs and I can't find the shorts!" She shouted in reply.
I turned on the TV and opened Netflix.
"Happy Christmas or Drinking Buddies first?" I shouted to Charlotte.
"You pick, I obviously love them both!" She replied.
I clicked on Drinking Buddies and grabbed a bag of popcorn.
"Charlotte! Charlotte quickly come here!" I shouted.
"I'm coming!" I heard her loud steps as she skidded into the living room. "What is it?!"
"My hair has gone grey because you took so long." I laughed until tears were rolling down my cheeks, whilst Charlotte just squinted her eyes at me and sat down.
"I'm sorry i'm so impatient." We laughed.
"Lets go, Anna!"
We cuddled on the sofa under the blanket and ate the mountain of sweets we bought.
This has been the best day of my life.
