Lilie's POV

It's the summer holidays, my favourite time of the year. I get 6 whole weeks for my summer holidays before starting back a new school year in September. I get to spend all of my summer holidays with my grandparents down their caravan. I absolutely love it down here, it's constant sun and the beach is only around the corner, it's the best place to be.

The campsite itself isn't too big, about 250 caravans are plotted here. There isn't much to do down here either but I've basically been brought up down here and I love it. I have a huge group of friends down here and we spend every day together. It's so peaceful and fun, nothing could ever ruin it down here.

The town itself is a cute little town in the middle of no where. There isn't many shops but theres enough here to get by. It's so calm here. The beach is beautiful. The sand is golden like honey and the sea is a lime green colour. The sea is always freezing but its so luscious once you've been under the heat of the sun all day.

I woke up happy this morning. Last night had put me in a good mood. It was very rare that I woke up in a bad mood down here but when I did, I was foul for the whole day. I come to stay with my grandparents on my own these days, my older two sisters, Jessica and Emilee have also been down here a lot, since they were born, but now they are too old, they rater spend their time doing other things.

It's not that I'm young to be forced to be here, but its my happy place, my get away place and that's how I love it to be. I know I can come here and be safe if I don't like the place that I am. That will always be the case here in Burry Port.

Last night a huge group of us went out, we went to the beach and had a camp fire, played a few stupid games which would normally make me cringe, but it was fun. We never stopped laughing. Nights like these are so memorable. It's just the simple things down here which pass the time but also make everyone happy to be around one another. It doesn't matter if a few of us have argued, once we are all put together with a camp fire, everyone is happy again. They put everything behind them, all of the bitchyness, the slyness, its all put behind us, just how I love us all to be, friends.

Today was a new day and from last night, with everyone getting along, I hope everyone will be the same today. It only takes one night for everyone to realise that we were actually all friends.

I decided to get out of bed after taking a good ten minutes to wake up. And, I didn't want my nan coming in and shouting at me for being "lazy".

I turned the shower on full blast while I got undressed and tied my hair into a bun on top of my head. It's so annoying having such thick and long hair on times like these.

The shower was boiling but it felt good on my skin, it also felt better washing all of the itchy sand from my skin. One little disadvantage of having the beach around the corner. I wasn't long in the shower, I didn't want to waste time or water. I quickly washed and turned the shower off.

It was sunny out with minimum wind, so I decided to wear my summer dress. It was quite casual and I loved it. It was a pale pink dress with different shaped and coloured flowers on the top half of it. I wore a navy polka dotted bikini underneath it, we usually went to the beach, so I was prepared if I did today.

I let my hair out of it's bun and it fell to the middle of my back in loose curls, my natural hair usually annoyed me but it didn't look too bad today with my outfit. I put a french plait in the front of my hair to keep it out of my face for the day. I applied some mascara, a little blush and some lip balm, then I picked out my favourite sunglasses, huge and round, which took up half of my face.

I double checked myself over in the mirror and I was quite impressed by how quickly I had gotten ready. My phone buzzed from under my pillow, I went to pick it up and seen it was a text from my friend, Abi.
