As soon as they got to the tram station, Amelia saw the small group of teenagers hanging around outside, all smoking something. They look like they are straight out of the set of Skins. She thought to herself, suddenly conscious that she was the only girl not wearing fishnet tights with Doc Martins. She recognised one person. she was called Clarissa, and Issac never stopped bloody going on about her. Amelia had met her at a party she attended at their house within the first week of knowing them.
As the trio approached, the Skins cast all turned to face them, smiling as they saw the new addition to the famous Hearte duo. Amelia smiled at them all and waved at Clarissa, who squealed like a small animal upon seeing it was Amelia approaching. "Amelia, hi! Girl, how are you?" She said, putting an arm around her. she was one of the only females within the group, along with Cara, who she had met before at the same party. she had a brief conversation with them, which generally involved complimenting each-others make-up, hair and outfits,as you would expect of girls. Amelia then heard a cough from behind her, turned around to see Issac, Will, and three others boys staring at her, Cara and Clarissa with bemused expressions on their faces. Cara giggled and pulled on her best friend's arm, dragging her away from Amelia.
Amelia recognised two of the boys as Callum and Ryan, but didn't recognise the last one, a tall guy with brown floppy hair that was messing around with Cara. She smiled at the two boys facing her and went to introduce herself. "Um hi. I'm Amelia, but these guys" she said, indicating to Issac and Will, "and everyone else prefer to call me Am" she said, laughing slightly along with the other two. "I'm Callum, and this dickhead here is Ryan. pleasure to meet the girl these two won't stop talking about. They've replaced Cara and Clarissa on the 'coolest girls of all time' list." Callum smirked, making Issac laugh and Will blush immensely. Amelia was about to reply, but the tall boy came over with Cara and stopped when he saw Amelia. "Oh, Hi. i take it your Amelia, the girl Will is obsessed with?" He said, making Am smirk as she realised that Will did indeed talk about her as much as she did about him. Although, the only friends Amelia had other than the twins were Hannah and Charlie. The two most inquisitive people she had ever met. Therefore, they were always asking her questions about him. So it was only polite to answer them.
"I believe so, i'm the only Amelia these two know, unless you count my little sister who may as-well be a carbon copy of me" she said, making him laugh. "I'm Noah, Cara's cousin. Nice to meet the infamous Amelia. Right, introductions over, we need to go catch that tram before the concert starts." Noah said, before walking into the station with everyone following behind him.
Amelia stayed back to walk with Will, who had grown a lot weaker over the two months. He and Am had created a 'bucket-list' that consisted of all the things that they both wanted to do before he went to New Zealand. Amelia wouldn't even see him before he died, as her parents would never let her go. Ever since the twins had come round for dinner and asked themselves, resulting in a heated argument between Will and her step-mum, in which he expressed how they both treated Amelia like they didn't give a shit about her and only cared about Hannah. Technically, that was true. They ignore me all the time, unless they want something from me. Or if I'm in trouble, which is often since I met Will and Issac. Amelia thought to herself as she dawdled alongside Will.
"So. Tonight, i think we should cross of everything on your bucket-list, with a little help from your friends." Am said pulling herself out of her thoughts, linking her arm through his as they caught up with the others. They all stood laughing and singing, waiting for the tram. Will laughed, nodding his head, and consulting with Issac and the others about it. "Well, the first thing on the list has been accomplished. You are currently on a night out with your friends with no adults. for the first time since the diagnosis. woohoo!" Amelia cheered, crossing it off the list as she took it out her pocket, getting several stares from cool looking people with dyed hair. This made her feel slightly self-conscious. Will noticed and stared them all out until they all looked away in a different direction. Amelia smiled at him great-fully before they stepped on the tram that had just arrived.
She leaned her head on Will's shoulder as they sat down, taking a drink from the coke they had all bought with them, wanting to be sober when they went to get food, and begin to drink alcohol semi responsibly when they were at the concert. Amelia saw what she thought was Cara was taking a picture of all of them together, and jostled Will into the picture. He got closer to Lilly grabbing her face and squeezing her cheeks as she made a stupid face. Cara started giggling a lot as she sent the picture to Amelia, only then had Amelia realised that Cara had been making a 'boomerang' video for Instagram. she gave Cara permission to post it, not wanting to look at it until later.
They got off at the designated stop in the middle of town, walking to a nearby pizza place that was cheap. Obviously, everyone agreed that it was the best option for the group, as they were all slightly broke, like all students. "Hey Will, want to cross number two off the list?" Amelia smirked, making him blush. Number two on the list was to share a drink with two straws, the way they had seen in so many films they had watched together."Why yes, I would love to Jug-head." " And what drink would that be Archie-kins?" he smirked, calling each-over by the nicknames that Issac had given them after they had all watched every episode of Riverdale together. He shipped the two boys ALMOST as much as he did Amelia and Will. And that was saying something. "A milk-shake," Amelia smirked back, making Will giggle adorably before she grabbed his hand and dragged him into the restaurant along with everyone else.
But if Amelia knew what that night would result in, she never would have convinced Will to buy those tickets.
