"HI BABE!" I run towards Ella who's leaning against her locker with her phone in her hand. She looks up in my direction. "I MISSED YOUUU" I allow myself into her arms and jump around making exciting noises. "OHMYGOD okay-ya-I got it-now-get away you butthead, do you want me dead?!" We both laugh. "Soooo, someone's happy uh?" Ella smirks and a giggle escapes my mouth. "Are you gonna tell me what happened or are you just gonna look at me like that and giggle the whole day? Come on! I KNOW there's something, you aren't gonna tell me that you just got a nice sleep and shit cause nobody is gonna believe you darling-GOD stop smiling like that-just tell me!" I can tell she's curious and I can't help it but laugh at her frustrating face; she furrows her eyebrows and slightly pouts, begging me to tell her every detail-oh I know my best friend way too good.
And that made another laugh escaping my mouth.
In fact I was extremely, incredibly, insanely happy today and I can't swipe the smile off my face. Yesterday was just. Amazing. Of course I was going to tell Ella everything but not now, I'll let her wait a little longer, she's coming over tonight anyways. It will distract me from thinking about dad, I guess. My eyes well up and my stomach twists.
Suddenly something else catches my attention, the famous red hair. My eyes following every step he makes, coming closer from behind Ella. I feel my palms getting sweaty and my heart starts to race.
"Oh I see.. so, could Mikey be the reason for that smile uh?" Ella pokes me and gives me that look-yaknow-that look that your best friend gives you when your crush walks by.
"Hiii, had a good sleep?" Michael smiles widely and gives me a kiss on my forehead. I hear Ella whispering 'aweee'. "Oh I uhm, yeah, yes, you?"
"Could be better if you were beside me." Michael winks. My cheeks are probably the color of his hair right now. "Ahum, okay. We need to rush now-she'll text you later-I think-bye Michael!" Ella grabs my arm and I lost sight of the beautiful red hair.
...
"AND THEN HE KISSED ME AND WE CUDDLED THE WHOLE FUCKING DAY--OH MY GOD--IT WAS PURR-FECT IEEEEHHHHH." I squeeze Ella's hands as we both jump up and down of excitement. "I CAN'T BELIEVE IT OMG I'M SO HAPPY FOR YOU BABE AHHW YOU GUYS ARE SO CUTE AND I'M LIKE-A POTATO-FOREVER ALONE-PROBABLY EVEN IN MY SECOND LIFE IF THAT EXISTS UGH." Ella lets herself fall on my bed. "HAAAAAA, you funny ass. You'll find a Michael twin soon, I'm sure about that." I throw a pillow towards her. "LET'S ORDER PIZZA AND FANGIRL AND DANCE AROUND LIKE MONKEYS OKAY?!" I say in a sing-voice. Ella giggles. "Yeah, let's have some fun."

It's only been a few weeks since dad's funeral but I honestly feel happy again. Of course it's still a touchy subject and it makes me sad but I think-no-I KNOW my friends'll help me. They've helped me so damn much already.
Ella's the craziest and funniest little monkey and she makes me laugh until my stomach aches and tears are streaming down my face from laughing.
Ashton's always there when I need someone. He's caring, funny and the best friend I could wish for.
Luke's the quiet friend. He listens to me when I need someone to talk to.
Calum's the weird one.
They all are to be completely honest. But Calum's my kinda weird you know, he's like the same.
And then you've Michael. Ha, Michael. Do I really need to say something about him? Well, I could but we'd be here for like forever. Let's just say that he has red hair, at least for now.

"KATH-HEY-KATH." Loud music blasts in my ears. Wtf. Ella's waving her hands in front of my face like crazy. (See what I did thereI told you she's crazy omg.) "Wowwowow. Stop waving. I'm still here don't worry." "OKAY BUT YOU WERE DAYDREAMING WITH A STUPID SMILE ON YOUR FACE AND I'M DANCING HERE ALONE-AL OH OH OOOOHN- COME-GET UP." Ella continues dancing on 'All About That Bass'. Her blonde hair moving along with her head. I laugh at all the weird faces she makes while dancing along with the music. "COME OHOOOONN. YOU'RE NOT LETTING ME DANCE ALONE ARE YA?" I get up and the next song starts playing. I smile and we both sing along at the same time.
"CAUSE GOOD GIRLS ARE BAD GIRLS THAT HAVEN'T BEEN CAUGHT."
