It was Friday, and Emma just dropped me off at home.Emma and I made plans to spend our Friday night together and I was really happy to spend time with her.I told her to stop by later tonight so I could finish homework and prepare everything for our sleepover.I go upstairs to my bedroom and change into some sweat pants and a loose T-shirt.I start my homework and put some headphones on.I started listening to some classical music, pulled out a pencil, and started working on my math.
_____________________________________
I checked my phone, and saw that it was 5:45 already.I had finished my homework within the hour and a half that I came home.So I was just watching movies and eating some yogurt on my bed the rest of the time.Emma had said that she would be at my house by 6, so I thought I should start getting ready.I filled the living room with chips, popcorn, chocolate, DVDs, sleeping bags and pillows.I was about to go upstairs and then the doorbell rang.I turned around, opened it and faced Emma.We screamed in sync.I know it must seem all weird that we were screaming because we had just saw each other a couple hours ago, but we were so excited to spend time together.
"Shall we?" Emma suggested
"We shall" I responded
We linked arms and giggled.We made our way to the living room and sat down in the pile of pillows and blankets.She immediately starts rummaging through the grey bin filled with movies beside us.She pulls out 10 movies and stares at them. "Need help choosing one?" I ask.
"Yeah.Leave the top five movies out.Okay?"
"Yeah sure" I say chuckling.
After 20 minutes of deciding which movies we were going to watch, I brought Emma to the kitchen to help get out all the food we were going to need.We brought out ice cream, chips, popcorn and cans of soda.I also brought out the music speakers, I hooked up my phone to the speakers and we started having a "concert".We brought out the karaoke machine, which actually had a lot of good music.We dressed up in our PJ's and I was wearing pink polka dot pants and a grey tank top.As for Emma she was wearing a burgundy tank top and some white shorts that repeatedly said ' I love you' on them.She was even fashionable in PJ's.
We danced and sang until like 9:00.I wasn't really big on party's or sleepovers, but I was really glad that Emma was, because I hadn't had this much fun in a long time.We stopped singing and sat down on the pile of pillows and blankets.We decided that it was time to order pizza.While I was on the phone with the near by pizza place, Emma decided to start playing a movie, it was 'The Fault in Our Stars'.I had seen it once before and my eyes got misty, but I wasn't one to usually cry, so I didn't.Emma on the other hand, I assume was bawling her eyes out, but I can't blame her, it was a sad movie.We started playing the movie and I was just staring at the pink pillows.I was thinking about writing a new song, maybe a love song.Im not really crushing on anybody though...unless pizza counts.
My thoughts are soon interrupted by the sound of a doorbell.Emma grabs the remote and pauses the movie.I open the door and see the pizza delivery man.I pay him and tip him, while Emma takes the pizza to the living room.We started eating and continued watching the movie.
Emma and I decided to watch another movie after 'The Fault In Our Stars'.Emma had fallen asleep halfway through the movie around 12:00 , It was 12:45 and I get up from the couch and make my way to the kitchen.I grab a cup form the cabinet and pour myself some water.I go back to the living room and pass out under the pile of pillows and blankets.

I flutter my eyes open and notice that it's sprinkling outside.I also notice the knocking sound coming from the door.I sit for like 10 seconds hoping that my mom will come downstairs to open the door, but she doesn't.She probably went to the gym or something.I hear the knocking sound again, then I groan, roll over and get up.I put my hair in a side braid and open the door while rubbing my eyes.Then I see Ross standing there in front of me.My eyes widen, but I try not to be rude so I give him a confused look.
"You invited me to come over and play music." He says almost in a questioning manner.Shoot.
"Oh my gosh.Im so sorry I completely forgot."I confess
"Am I interrupting?I can come back later."He tells me
"No.Of course not.Come on in." I tell him.
He comes in and sees the mess of my living room. "I'm so sorry for the mess." I apologize.
"It's fine, but what's that?" He questions pointing to something moving under the sleeping bags and pillows.
"Oh that's Emma." I whisper "C'mon let's go upstairs to the music room." I smile
He smiles back and follows me upstairs.We reach the top of the stairs and go into the music room.I automatically jump on the beanbag and grab the bongos and start making noise.I watch as Ross chuckles and grabs the guitar from the wall and sits on the nearby couch.He starts playing the guitar and I automatically figure out what he's playing, so I start singing the song,
" I wouldn't wanna be anybody else." I smile as I sing the first verse.I look over to Ross and see him smiling while strumming the guitar.
"You made me insecure, told me I wasn't good
enough, but who are you to judge when your a
diamond in the rough, I'm sure you've got some
the things, you'd like to change about yourself,
but when it comes to me, I wouldn't wanna be
anybody else.Na na na na na na na na (x2)
I'm no beauty queen, I'm just beautiful me
Na na na na na na na na (x2) You've got very
right, to a beautiful life, C'mon . Who says,
Who says you're not perfect? Who says you're
not worth it? Who says you're the only one that's
Hurting?, Trust me, that's the price of beauty,
Who says?Who says you're not pretty?
Who says you're not beautiful?Who says?""
We finish the song there and smile at each other.
"That was great" He says
" It sure was." somebody replies.
We both turn around to see Emma leaning against the door with a smile on her face.I feel bad and relieved because I woke up Emma, but surprisingly she wasn't mad.
"Sorry we woke you up" I apologize
"It's totally cool, you guys are amazing!"
I smile at her and turn to Ross and see him strumming the guitar lightly.
"Ross, do you want to stay for breakfast?I make a mean pancake." Emma offers
"If that's fine with Laura." He turns to me for an answer.
"Yeah I'm fine with that."
"Shall we?" Emma asks in a semi British tone.
Ross and I both chuckle at the strawberry blonde and head downstairs.We get to the kitchen and Emma starts going through our cabinets and looking for stuff to make breakfast.Ross and I both take a seat at the kitchen island and start talking to each other about random things.Emma joins in on our conversation and soon enough we are all smiling and laughing together.It was almost...Perfect.
