Chapter 5

'Price tag'

Arggggg, didn't I close the blinds last night?

Slowly letting my eyes flutter open and glance at my window I notice that, for a fact, I did not close my blinds last night.

Urg. Just another thing to add to the list of things wrong with my life.

But then all the memories of my birthday come back to me and I feel a small smile break out on my face. No matter how down I get, my family will always make me smile. Even in the worst situations possible.

Gotta love that fact about my family.

Next thing I know there is fists banging on my door.

"Get up sis, or we're gonna be late!!!" My brother yells through the door.

Did he not remember our exact conversation about this yesterday? 

I groan.

"Don't you remember? I am going shopping with mum first!!! Get that in your head. If there is time left I will be in, boss said that was fine yesterday. I really need a girls day out and last time I checked, you were a GUY!" 

"Damn, forgot about that. Alright, just don't take too long getting ready cause I can see mum about to burst in excitement." Came the muffled reply.

"Fine by me!"

Hearing his retreating footsteps, I lay in bed a bit longer while shaking in silent laughter.

Walking downstairs after getting dressed, I make my way towards the kitchen.

"Oh goodie, your up! Its about time. Hurry up and eat breakfast so we can get going." Mum gushes as I walk in the room.

"Ok, I will hurry." I roll my eyes.

Eager much? I chuckle quietly to myself.

So, once I finally finish my cereal mum grabs my arm and practically drags me out to her car and drives me to the mall.

Mum then starts looking around franticly. Jumping up and down when she see's what, or more exactly, who she was looking for.

"Lily, over here!!!" Mum shouts to the person on the other side.

The blonde turns her head this way and my breath catches.

"Lily!!!" I scream, finally getting it.

Lily see's me and we do that epic thing people are always doing in movies, we run up to each other and hug for a very long time.

"Oh my gosh Rubs, I haven't seen you in ages!" My best friend/cousin says.

"I know right! It has been way to long!"

She steps back to take a look at me.

"And you have changed a heap! And no more glasses!!!!"

Best friend and cousin say what?

I stare at her in shock of what she said for a second. Of cause I had my glasses on, right? I mean, I can see perfectly well.

I lift on of my fingers to push up my 'glasses' and notice that I was, for a fact, not wearing any.

'Told you there was going to be some changes. Did you even look at yourself in the mirror this morning?"

I jump a little at hearing my wolf speak. Then her words finally registered in my head.

Deciding not to dwell on it to much yet, I focus back on Lily who is blabbing about her time in LA.

"And so, the place was just so amazing!" she concludes, while I just nod like I was listening to the whole thing. Oops.
