Chapter 1

"So you think this dress looks good?" I heard my best friend Chloe ask from behind me, walking out of a changing cubical, wearing the dress she was going to wear to a school disco in a few days.

I turned around to see her standing in a long black dress with millions of diamond sequins filling the waist.

"Yeah it looks good" I answered.

It just isn't fair how she looks so good in anything. She could make a cardboard box look awesome.

She walked back into the cubical to get changed back into normal clothes.

"What are you wearing? She shouted from the cubical.

I lifted up my dress that I'd picked. It had a tight cream top half then sequins around a white band around the waist and a flowy sage green bottom half.

"Oh thats nice" I heard her mutter as she emerged from the cubical.

"Thanks" I replied

"You don't seem too interested" She said as she came to sit down beside me "This kind of stuff usually gets you really excited!"

I'll be honest I was feeling really ill and tired all day but i didn't want to ruin her shopping.

"Oh I'm fine, i just don't like the smell of this place, It's really sickly" I lied

"Let's get out then!" She beamed, as she suddenly sprung up from the sofa, making me jump.

3 Hours Later

After a few more hours of shopping with Chloe, we walked back to the bus stop together.

"I really need to learn to drive!" She groaned

She's had multiple chances to take driving lessons as a christmas gift from her parents, but every time, she refused.

"Me too" I muttered.

A few minutes later, the buses arrived

"One ticket please" I said to the bus driver, as he took my money and handed me a ticket. "Thanks".

We went to sit on the very back seats, as we did as children.

I stayed very quiet for the rest of the way back home.
