Emma's P.O.V
I woke up the next morning, and got out of bed. I checked my phone for the 100th time this week. Suddenly beep beep
LUCY : Where did you go?
Me: I tried to call you. I've been moved to Elm Tree House
LUCY: Oh, okay. How about we meet up soon so u can tell me bout it.
Me: OK. Talk 2 u soon. XXX
Lucy is my best friend. She helped me when the kids at my old care home beat me up. She's got her own problems but we are there for each other. I looked at what I was going to wear and decided with a white dress, black tights, converse, a black leather jacket and a necklace. I then got washed and dressed before going downstairs. Harry and Jody ran over to me before I could get to bottom of the stairs. "Stop. We've got a surprise for you!" They put a blindfold over me and guided me outside somewhere.
When they undid my blindfold, in front of me was Lucy. "Lucy! What are you doing here?!'' I asked, giving her a big hug. "I had to come and see you!"she replied. Suddenly, Mike walked over a with an envelope in his hand. "Hi girls. Look, Emma. You have been here a week and all you have is a bed, a wardrobe and a little chest of draws. If you go out today, you can buy some posters, covers and things like that. Lucy can come too!" He handed me the envelope, it had a lot of money. "Of course , I have to come but I'll keep my distance, okay?" I nodded my head. "Come on then Lucy, its time to shop!"
In the shopping centre, me and Lucy went into loads of shops. In HMV, I bought an Ed Sheeran, Harry Potter and Keep Calm and Carry on Posters. Then I went to a few home ware shops and bought a rug, a vase, a lamp. Then I went to a flower stall and bought some lilies. I still had quite a lot of money left but I needed to buy a few things online so I set off home with Mike, saying goodbye to Lucy.
At home, I went on the computer and ordered a dressing table, picture frames, posters of you tubers and a few other things. I was about to get my room sorted out when I banged into Johnny.
"Oh my God! I'm so sorry!" I said nervously, helping him off the ground. "It's okay! Seriously, are you okay?!" Jonny asked. I nodded my head and I sighed awkwardly. His hair was slightly ruffled and his cheeks a little flushed, it made him look so cute. "So, your decorating your room. Maybe it'll be as beautiful as yo----i didn't mean that---no' I mean, you are beautiful but I dont---i..." Johnny stuttered. I laughed' but inside my heart was beating heavily. Johnny had just called me beautiful... "So anyway, basically Johnny, me and Tee are gonna do my room, can you help?" I asked. "Yep course!" Johhny answered so we set off to do it.
