I couldn’t believe it! It was 5:15pm already and here I was stood looking angrily at my limited wardrobe in my bra and knickers. How can I still look nice and attractive and be warm? Things that are designed to keep you warm don’t always look very appealing. I hope he realised that he wasn't giving me many options. I sighed in frustration; I want to look nice for him but not stupid when he’s already asked me to dress warm! Another sigh escaped my lips, just as my Mum popped her head around my bedroom door,

“Where are you two off to tonight then?” she asked me and Daisy curiously.

“I’m meeting a guy. He’s called Connor, he’s really nice” I replied a little apprehensively, my Mum's a single parent and can be quite protective, she’s always been a bit funny when me or Amelia have brought boys home.

“I’m just here for moral support.” Daisy interjected, staring at her mobile phone yet again. A smirk appeared on her innocent face, I’ll have to ask her about that later, I made a mental note.

“Hmm okay then." she replied, "I want you home for 11 though Sarah, and be careful! Ring me if you need me at all okay?!” I nodded then she left us to it. My mum is usually pretty good about things she just worries about us, even my brother Shaun and he’s 25 now so I’ve got no chance of her loosening up on me any time soon.

“Wear your high-waisted jeans and a cute top tight top, that red one you bought last Tuesday! It’ll show off your figure.” Daisy suggested whilst she was sprawled on my bed, still with her eyes glued to her phone.

She was laid in a pair of grey trackies and a simple vest top, and she still managed to look good. Her dark hair covered my purple pillow, naturally curly, I thought it suited her but she preferred it straight. I couldn’t help a note of jealousy arise from the pit of my stomach as I looked at her. She was my best friend and nothing would change that but I couldn’t help but have these occasions of envy towards her natural beauty.

“But he told me to dress warm, I don’t want to look like a tart!” I moaned flopping on top of daisy.

“Anyway Miss secretive, who have you been texting all day? Don’t think I haven’t noticed” I revealed with a smirk.

She blushed, Daisy never blushes!

She was obviously texting a boy! Despite her natural beauty, Daisy had only ever slept with one boy and they had been together for two years, and as soon as they had sex their whole relationship went down the drain. That was partly the reason why I wanted to wait to make love with someone that loves me…I didn’t want to think about the other side of my reasoning.

Pushing the negative thoughts to one side, still in my underwear I pounced on Daisy. Yeah, we are close like that!

“Spill!”

Silence.

"Now Daisy! We're best friends!"

“I know! I just didn't want to tell you until I knew for sure! I’m kinda beginning to.. um.. might be starting to see Zach…” She confessed, looking at me clearly unsure of how I was going to take this sudden news.

“No way! Oh my god, Oh my god! Get in there Daisy!” I squealed excitedly. I’ll have get all the details at a later date when we’re not so pushed for time.

They would make such a cute couple! Last year, Zach had liked this girl in our class for months and she just picked him up and dropped him whenever she pleased. I could feel my blood boiling just thinking about it, I knew I was protective over them but they were just the same with us. We all loved each other to bits and never wanted to see any of us hurt. At least now I knew she had lost all that control over him and he could be happy again!
