up my son from school” I still get surprised when Linda says ‘my son’ she doesn’t look much older than me, I followed her over to the front door and opened it
“Is everything ok?” I asked
“Oh yeah, everything is fine thanks, the nursery rang up and said he needs a change of clothes” I looked questioningly at her “he needed the toilet but didn’t tell any one, and you know I have been potty training him, he’s gone one week with out any accidents I thought we had it sorted, but oh well these things happen don’t they, and anyway Dave would usually do it but he is out of town today, he’s trying to get it so he can be around for Tom’s birthday, he is four next week, oh look at me” she laughed “babbling away”
“That’s ok” I said smiling “I’ll see you tomorrow”
“Yeah, half eight instead of nine.” She asked as she stepped out
“That’s right, thanks again” I said as I gave her a hug and shut the door behind her
“Right” I said after Linda had gone, I turned to Gabriel who was sitting on the bottom stair “I’m just going to get changed”
Gabriel looked at me then said “can I come with you?”
“Sure” I said “I could use your opinion actually, I bought some new clothes yesterday and I am in two minds whether to take them back or not”
“Lead the way” he said grinning. I could trust Gabriel, he had seen me in my underwear many times I didn’t mind partly because I really like him and partly because I feel comfortable around him, I am sure if he wasn’t trust worthy then I would feel very uneasy. I ran up the stairs with him close behind me then me being me tripped on the last step and sent both of us toppling on top of each other on the landing
“Oops” I giggled waiting for Gabriel to move so I could get up,
“Gosh Lana, you are so clumsy” he chuckled clambering over me and held out a hand to help me up.
Blushing furiously and still laughing I spluttered “I know” I said, he laughed and led me into my room.
“Where are these new clothes then?” he asked
“Over here” I answered putting the monitor on my bedside table and walking over to my chair and picking up a white halter neck top which was a size twelve and a short dark blue denim skirt which was also a size twelve. I wasn’t usually a skirt person, I preferred to wear clothes that were comfy rather than clothes that were in fashion but I picked up the top and the skirt both for ten pounds so I thought it wasn’t too much of a waste. I quickly took off my jacket and my shirt and replaced it with my new top “Gabriel could you tie this for me please?” I asked him
“Sure” he said walking over to me; I held my hair off of my shoulders to keep it out of the way for him as he gently tied the ties together,
“Cheers” I said turning round to face him
“Looks good” he said, I frowned at him
“I’m not done yet” I said as I took of my jeans and threw them on to my bed and turned to pick up my skirt, “hmm, I swear I put it there” I mumbled
“What this?” grinned Gabriel holding out my skirt “gosh Lana, you really need to put on some weight you know, I don’t even think I could fit my head through this.”
“Thanks” I grumbled “Gabriel if anything I need to loose weight and you must have a pretty big head if it cant fit through there” I took my skirt out of his hands and put it on, “ok” I said as I did up the last button “how do I look?”
he looked me up and down a few times then said “You look fantastic, you always do.” I grinned at him
“So you don’t think I should take them back then?” I said as I stepped in front of my mirror to admire myself in my new clothes, I’m not a vein person but if I had to pick my best feature I would definitely choose my eyes, mainly because they’re the exact same shade of my mothers eyes, bright green, I remember that her eyes used to twinkle, I looked into my own eyes again, nope, no twinkle “ah well” I sighed. I suppose I am ok with my figure, I’m not fat but im not skinny, but at least I tan well, it’s brilliant, every time I go out in the sun I come back in looking half cast, it makes Bree so jealous, even though they tan better than I do. I lifted my hand and combed through my hair with my fingers and sighed quietly, I could never tame my hair, it was long, blonde and wild, it just kinda sticks out everywhere, it has a life of its own, most unfortunately, I sighed again as I put my hand on my waist, the top looks ok, “but maybe if I…” I thought as a stuck my chest out, “yes that’s better” I thought as I smiled into the mirror.
“No I do not” he laughed “and are you quite finished?”
“Oh yeah sorry” I laughed
“Keep them, you look good, it’s nice to have a change every now and then.”
“What like you always in jeans and a t shirt” I said grinning at him. “Ok” I said as I pulled off my top “I will keep them”
“What are you doing?” asked Gabriel holding on to my arm
“I’m changing” I answered
“You should leave it on for tonight”
“No, I’ll wear them some other time”
“ok I’ll make you a deal then” Gabriel said “you can change back into some other clothes if you wear this outfit at school some time next week” I saw his eyes sparkle as he grinned at me waiting for my answer,
“Fine” I said after a minute “deal.” I never could resist him, especially when he does that cheeky grin.
“You are so beautiful” he whispered as he let go of my arm so I could pull my top off and pull my other top back on, I stared at him blushing
“Um thanks” I mumbled. I could feel my heart pounding so hard in my chest it was getting hard to breath, had Gabriel just said he thought I looked beautiful?
“Urm so…” he said looking as though he just let something slip. He sighed then went and sat down on my bed “so, what do you want to do?” he asked,
I smiled at him then went and joined him on my bed, I leaned up close to him then whispered slowly in his ear “I love you” then stretched out on my bed sitting on my pillow watching his face, waiting for his reaction.
He sighed then crawled over and sat next to me and said “what are we doing later, you know, when the others get here?” avoiding eye contact as he sat up and leaned against my pillows.
I blushed furiously as this was an obvious attempt to change the subject; I turned my face away as I felt the tears fall from my eyes.
“Lana? Are you crying?”
“No” I mumbled “Listen, im just going to have a bath ok. You can play with Dylan if you want” I got up off the bed with out looking at him and walked in to my bathroom, I still had three hours to waste before the others arrived.
“Ok” said Gabriel looking a bit uncomfortable “have fun”
When five o’clock had finally come, I heard Bree’s special knock for the door, two rings, three knocks and then two more rings, “wait here” I said jumping off my bed pleased to have a decent excuse to leave the room and headed for the stairs. I was just about to open the front door when the letter box opened; I bent down to see a pair of brown eyes peeking through
“Come on girl” said Bree “don’t have all evening”.
I pushed the handle down on the door then opened it, “you could have just walked in you know, it was open”
“Oh well, its open now” she grinned happily walking through the door followed by Willow and Demitri, then to my surprise Kiah walked in behind them
“Hey guys” I said hugging them all tightly. “Kiah, I didn’t think you were coming because you weren’t at school”
Kiah grinned then said “course I wouldn’t bail on you,” she paused then added “unless I was spewing everywhere” then followed the guys in so I could close the door.
“Where’s Dylan?” asked Bree looking around
“You just missed him, he is in his cot, sleeping”
“Ok I’ll just give these to you then” she said holding out a big Adams’ bag
“Thanks” I answered taking it from her and putting it on the floor by the door.
“We brought some alcohol” said Willow
“And” said Demitri “some pillows” I looked at him questioningly “I figured on the off chance we got drunk we may not make it home so we may as well be comfy”
“good Idea” said Bree “guess what DVD I brought” she said grinning as I led the way up the stairs to my bedroom and sat down next to Gabriel
“take a seat guys” I said when they didn’t sit down, Demitri stayed standing as he watched his brother settle himself next to Kiah who was settled next to me and Gabriel on my bed then took a seat on the empty large one seater sofa that was in front of my window.
“Well I brought a few” Bree said pulling out a case from her bag “I thought we could be childish and watch a few Disney’s” and to my great surprise even the boys were up for it. After the popcorn was handed out and every one had a glass of vodka and coke in their hands Bree put ‘The Lion King’ in to the DVD player, pressed play then squeezed down next to Demitri and downed her first drink then topping up with the same, she looked up to see the looks on every ones faces and said “what? I’m thirsty.”
“Drink water then” Demitri muttered into her ear
“I already got comfy” she said grinning as Demitri placed a hand around her waist. It was a good job that my dad brought me a double king sized bed, it was very handy for sleep over’s as it would fit all six of us in with space enough to be comfortable.
“You’re so lucky” said Kiah “your room is so big! And I would kill to have this bed” she told me poking me in the leg;
I laughed and said “yeah it’s just like having my own apartment really and all that’s missing is the kitchen.” My house is the biggest on my street, mainly because my parents had it extended from a three bed to a six bed house, I don’t think he even knows why they extended it so big, We only really use 4 of the six rooms. The house is made of orange brick and looks like your typical suburban family home. Most of the rooms were on the ground floor, but my room, dad’s room and Dylan’s soon to be bedroom was on the first floor. But oddly the downstairs was my favourite bit of
