My Brothers Best Friend

Chapter 4// Beautiful

Annabelle's POV:

I woke up early as my phone had been pinging non stop for about 20 minutes. I turned over, groaning in the process and looked at my phone. I had 15 unread messages. I sighed and pulled the covers over my head and went back to sleep. I woke up almost an hour later and I felt a bit more alive. I picked up my phone and looked at who had text me. I had 7 messages from Tara, 3 messages from Dad, 2 messages from Carter and 2 messages from Matt and 1 from those strange pizza hut offers you get (not that I was complaining!). I slipped my legs from the safety of the bed and sat up. I scratched my head and went to the bathroom where I washed my face and teeth and went back into bed. Tara's party didn't start till 5 and it was midday, I had loads of time. I reached my phone and began reading and replying to some messages.

Firstly, I opened Tara's which read:

Today's the day my little party animal!! X

Are you awake yet? X

Has Carter text you yet? X

How can you not be awake yet?? X

BELLA!!!!!!

ANNABELLE!! WAKE UP AND ANSWER THE PHONE!

I giggled at all the texts she had sent me and text her:

I'm awake now don't worry and yep but i haven't read it yet xx

I then turned to Carter's messages so I was caught up and they read:

Tara said text you

She wants us to be there a little bit earlier, be ready by 4

He sounded so blunt that it kind of hurt. I didn't know what was up but I responded with 'ok' and left it at that. I then went on to read my messages from my Dad which were basically the same every Saturday that he was going out and would be home later and that we should try and not get into trouble if that was even possible for us to do. I looked at the messages from Matt and they said:

Had fun last night

We should do it again x ;)

The boy was so immature and it made me laugh. I physically couldn't have done anymore to tell him I wasn't interested but let him waste his breath, after all to him I was another conquest and I couldn't care less. I ignored it and went and had a long shower.

By the time I got out the shower and the new time limit, I only had 2 hours to be ready. So I brushed and straightened my hair, applied a bit of make up and put on my new black dress. It was a black wrap bodycon dress made out of a satin/silky fabric. From downstairs I heard the doorbell go and rolled across my bed to check the time - shit. It was 3:36 and I had lost track of time. I quickly strapped up my shoes and grabbed my bag and after making one more final check that I hadn't forgotten anything I went downstairs. The boys were waiting by the door. Daniel was wearing a pair of blue jeans, white vest grey unbuttoned shirt on top and matching converse. Carter was wearing a pair of black jeans, a white shirt that was un-tucked and a black jumper finished with black trainers which made him look ruggedly casual. As I came down the stairs I called out that I was ready and both boys looked up to see me. Daniel looked at me and laughed, "What took you so long?". I sarcastically laughed at him and looked at Carter who was still staring at me. I looked downwards thinking there was a problem and spoke embarrassingly, "It's too much isn't it?" and he shook his head slowly before blinking and saying proudly, "Annabelle, you look beautiful".
