The time had gone by so fast. Lily sounds like she is going to have a mini panic attack if we don't finish getting ready by the time Neil comes to pick us up. I thought we were going to cab to Jaspers, but I guess Lily sweet talked her way into getting us a ride.

I am finishing up the last final touch ups on my makeup before I get dressed.


"Shit" I murmur. I hate when I get my mascara wand on a part of my face that does not need lash lifting. I reach for a makeup wipe to clean it off.

I walk towards the the bin to throw away the used makeup wipe. I completely forgot, the vomit! I rushed over to where I had placed it last. I picked it up thinking that my bodily chunks was still going to be in there, but it wasn't. Did Lily clean it out? Why didn't she say anything? I'd assume she asked why there was a bucket of vomit if she had cleaned it out for me. I stood outside the ensuite bathroom in our room where Lily is getting ready.

"Hey, uhm question question. By any chance did you clean the bin in our room?" I asked

"No, why? We haven't thrown anything away yet, so why would I have taken out the bin."

"Oh, no just wondering. I think I might of dropped one of my lipsticks somewhere." I lied. I obviously want to tell her about the phone call, but I don't want to ruin this night for her. I don't want to worry her while we are here. We left all our problems in Seattle, London should be a place were we leave all of that negativity somewhere else and start fresh. Besides, he can't harm me when from the opposite side of the world.

"C'mon hun, put your clothes on. Neil said he's going to be here in 5 minutes." Lily sounds panicked

I walk to my side of the dresser. I pull out a pair of black high waisted ripped jeans, a white ripped off the shoulder crop top, and belt that is embellished with a gold buckle. I thought this would be slightly casual. I really don't know what to wear to these types of events. I am just guessing based of Lily's past outfits.

I let my hair down from the clip. The loose ringlets of my hair falls down nearly to my hips. I hear a knock on the door. Lily comes running from out of the bathroom, still in her robe.

"That can't be 5 minutes. FUCK FUCK, Stella go answer the door and tell Niel I will just be a moment."

"Hahahahaha, okay. Okay, just relax i'll get the door." I walk to the door to open it. Neil walks in and gives me a hug.

"Hi Stella, you look lovely." he says

"Thank you, Lily will just be out in a moment." I say to Neil, but he attentions diverted to what's behind me. It's Lily, she looks stunning. Her brown shoulder length hair is perfectly straighten. She is wearing a simple black formed fitted dress, accented with such a beautiful dainty necklaces.

"Wow, you look amazing." Neil can't keep his eyes off her. He moves past me to go say hello to Lily. She is blushing. She reaches up and presses her lips against his cheek. His face heats up.

"Okay, are you guys ready?" I sarcastically say breaking the romance.

"Oh yeah of course, my car is just parked out front." I put on a leather jacket, with the same booted heels from last night. Lily grabs her coat and put on her shoes as well. I locked the door behind us and followed Neil to his car.
