Just A Girl Thing

Chapter 18

(Lizzy's POV)

Im in the car heading back to the foster house with Bri in the driver's seat and we're singing at the top of our lungs to "Story of My Life" by 1D. I've missed my sister so much. I've missed our conversations and staying up late giggling and watching movies and sharing secrets after all the foster children were asleep. I wonder what Bri has been thinking about lately. Has she been thinking about mom and dad? What about our old home? Home... that's a nice word. I hope that one day I'll get a nice home and sweet children one day. Probably not with Drake. He's a player and he cheats on me all the time. I pretend not to mind but it really hurts. He always told me not to get too attached to him so the break up wouldn't be bad. He's had one foot out the door ever since we started our relationship. I really don't know why we're still together. We're more of best friends then boyfriend/girlfriends. I think we should break up and just be best friends again. That would be nice...

(Brinna's POV)

"No I can't go out tonight! Liz is here!" I speak into my phone to Kendall.

"So? She can come with us!" Jessi says.

"You know, it's not nice to intrude in someone's convo, Jess." I scold. I swear these two. Where you find one, you find the other. That statement is 100% accurate.

"Whatever. What day is it? Saturday? Yeah and you said she was stay til...?" Asked Kendall.

"Next Wednesday."

"Right so what about like Friday?"

"What about the weekly party?"

"After the party. Duh!"

"Yeah I guess. We need to go shopping tomorrow. I'll text you later. Bye!"

Even though I just tried to end this call, I know it will take five more minutes before we actually hang up.

"Yay!" Kendall and Jessi squeal into my ear. "Okay bring Liz shopping tomorrow and meet at my house. Then tell Lesley that I want a new tattoo. We'll go straight to her shop after shopping. Cool? Okay bye!" Kendall finishes three minutes later. It's a new record!

I glance over to Liz and see her starting to doze off. Oh well. I can tell her our plans later.

...

We pull into the drive way of the house. After all these years it has never been nor called home for me. It's always been the house.

"Hey Liii-zzzyyy!" I shake her gently.

"What mom?" She mumbles. I swore I heard wrong.

"What Liz?"

"Mom, stop." She mumbles incoherently again. I don't cry Brinn. Your strong. Don't end your two-year streak so soon. Be strong.

"Liz wake up!" I shake her a little more roughly.

"What? Oh..." She lets out a huge sigh as she at reaches above her head for a good stretch. "Alright I'm up."

...

We make our way into the kitchen, grab a box of Cheese-Itz, and head up to our old room. We lay down on the mattress that still lays on the floor. The only new additions to this room are the posters and new clothes in the closet. Everything is still the same from when we lived together. Also, I installed a lock on our door. Too many little johnny's running around. They don't need to walk in on me changing, eating, sleeping, or anything else for that matter.

Liz belly flops face-first onto the mattress. All her hair spreads out. She still has the beautiful strawberry blonde that we have shared our entire lives.

"Uhg! I love this tattoo but it's way too tender." She mentions.

"Oh well I kinda forgot about it. You'll get used too it." I reassure her.

"Yeah but you have done this before."

"As I said, you'll get used to it."

"Whatever"

" So I was talking to Kendall, mainly Kendall, and we need to go shopping tomorrow and she also want a new tattoo."

"Which one is the Kendall one again?" Asked Lizzy.

"Red head" I respond.

"What's the metal ears name again?" She asked. I almost spit out all my Cheese-Itz.

"Metal ears?" I question. Her face flushes and then gets ruby red. At first I thought she was choking but she was breathing fine.

"Oh crap! Please don't tell her I called her that! Oh please!" Liz begs.

"Yeah okay I won't tell. Metal ears is like the best nick name I've ever heard! By the way, her name is 'Jessi'." I answer. Now I just have to get to Wednesday. By then I'll be free and I'll get to be myself again. I love Lizzy but I have to meet her standers. They aren't really high but if I mess up, its a total guilt trip. I just have to get to Wednesday without her asking about the dresses we'll be buying tomorrow.
