The Cancer Chick's Best Friend

Chapter Six

"Drew what the hell is this place!?" Olivia asked in anticipation.

Drew chuckled and said, "Stop being so scared and trust me will you?"

"I can't trust you when you're leading me inside a dark alleyway, why is it even dark it's Nine in the morning!" Olivia replied.

"The buildings block sunlight, it's fine, just trust me alright? Nothing's gonna happen to you with me around. I promise." He said and held her hand.

Olivia went silent. She was scared because when she was in England she had been mugged in a place like this, it made her sceptical.

"Right, here we are, after you" Drew said, opening a huge metal door wide enough for them to enter.

She walked in and he followed. She then said,"Where are we Drew?"

"We are at my friend Annie Besik's studio."

"And we are here because?" She asked.

"Drew hey!" They heard someone say. It was a tall girl with glasses, she was walking towards them with a wide smile and embraced Drew in a hug.

"Hello Ann, This is Olivia. Olivia, Meet Annie, Future famous Fashion Designer!"

"Will you ever cut that out?" Annie asked and then turned towards Olivia and said, "Hey! Drew's told me all about you! It's great to meet you!" And hugged Olivia too.

Olivia was too confused to speak up, but then looking at Drew's ' Trust me for Christ sake ' expression, said, "Hello, it's lovely to meet you aswell"

"Drew told me you wanna sew your own Halloween costume! That's pretty dang cool I've got loads of materials you could use!" She said and walked into another door.

"So that's why" Olivia said, a smile finally showing on her face. Drew side hugged her and led her into the room Annie had gone into.

"So Olivia, what's your idea for your costume?" Annie asked.

"I hadn't really decided yet, but I just don't want something generic." Olivia replied.

"Okay then, come sit here, let's brainstorm for ideas!" Annie said and led them to a little coffee table.

"Say Annie, why is your studio in such a weird alleyway?" Olivia asked.

Drew and Annie laughed at her concerned expression, then Annie said, "the studio was extremely cheap, and the people living around her may seem shady at the start but actually are the sweetest people I've met, and are very very protective, so it's a steal!" She said and grinned.

"I don't really like alleyways. I got mugged in one when I was in England and the guy had a knife and it was scary." Olivia said, looking uncomfortable. Drew immediately put her hands in his and then said," you're okay here. Don't worry."

She nodded. Then Annie said, "Alright then let's get to work!"

"To make things easier couldn't she just mention all her favourite characters in movies and shows and start from there?" Drew asked.

"That was the plan" Annie said.

The three of them spent fifty minutes trying to come up with an idea, arguing why Kate Beckket or Katniss Everdeen weren't the best, why Twilight shouldn't be in consideration (Annie loved Twilight) and why she didn't want to go as Hazel Grace or a Game of Thrones character.

Finally drew said, "who is your favourite Harry Potter character?"

"Hermione Granger" Olivia said.

"But I don't want to go as her." She added.

"Okay who other than the golden trio?"

"You're a fan of Harry Potter!?" Olivia asked, surprised. She had assumed everyone including Drew had lost interest in it.

"Ofcourse I am, remember when the entire gang had gone with your mom, before you went to England, ah good old days." He said and smiled.

"Luna Lovegood." Olivia said, suddenly looking excited.

"Do you think you can go as her?" Annie asked.

"I think, I would love to go as her. She's adorable and so unique and just so amazing as a character I'd love to!" Olivia said, sounding extremely excited.

"Very well then, Luna Lovegood it is! Let's get to work then, I'm going to pull up different looks of hers and want you to choose which one." Annie said.

"I already know, it's either her on the train with 3D glasses or her in the corridor searching for her shoes!" Olivia said.

"Alright! I'll pull those two up, and you choose which you want." Annie said.

While Olivia and Annie were happily chatting about Luna Lovegood and Wackspurts, and arguing about if she's meant to be with Neville Longbottom or not, Drew stood silent in the corner, just smiling at Olivia.

He didn't want her to go.
