âIs everything ok?â I asked
âOh yeah, everything is fine thanks, the nursery rang up and said he needs a change of clothesâ I looked questioningly at her âhe needed the toilet but didnât tell any one, and you know I have been potty training him, heâs gone one week with out any accidents I thought we had it sorted, but oh well these things happen donât they, and anyway Dave would usually do it but he is out of town today, heâs trying to get it so he can be around for Tomâs birthday, he is four next week, oh look at meâ she laughed âbabbling awayâ
âThatâs okâ I said smiling âIâll see you tomorrowâ
âYeah, half eight instead of nine.â She asked as she stepped out
âThatâs right, thanks againâ I said as I gave her a hug and shut the door behind her
âRightâ I said after Linda had gone, I turned to Gabriel who was sitting on the bottom stair âIâm just going to get changedâ
Gabriel looked at me then said âcan I come with you?â
âSureâ I said âI could use your opinion actually, I bought some new clothes yesterday and I am in two minds whether to take them back or notâ
âLead the wayâ he said grinning. I could trust Gabriel, he had seen me in my underwear many times I didnât mind partly because I really like him and partly because I feel comfortable around him, I am sure if he wasnât 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
âOopsâ I giggled waiting for Gabriel to move so I could get up,
âGosh Lana, you are so clumsyâ he chuckled clambering over me and held out a hand to help me up.
Blushing furiously and still laughing I spluttered âI knowâ I said, he laughed and led me into my room.
âWhere are these new clothes then?â he asked
âOver hereâ 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 wasnât 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 wasnât too much of a waste. I quickly took off my jacket and my shirt and replaced it with my new top âGabriel could you tie this for me please?â I asked him
âSureâ 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,
âCheersâ I said turning round to face him
âLooks goodâ he said, I frowned at him
âIâm not done yetâ I said as I took of my jeans and threw them on to my bed and turned to pick up my skirt, âhmm, I swear I put it thereâ I mumbled
âWhat this?â grinned Gabriel holding out my skirt âgosh Lana, you really need to put on some weight you know, I donât even think I could fit my head through this.â
âThanksâ I grumbled âGabriel if anything I need to loose weight and you must have a pretty big head if it cant fit through thereâ I took my skirt out of his hands and put it on, âokâ I said as I did up the last button âhow do I look?â
he looked me up and down a few times then said âYou look fantastic, you always do.â I grinned at him
âSo you donât think I should take them back then?â I said as I stepped in front of my mirror to admire myself in my new clothes, Iâm not a vein person but if I had to pick my best feature I would definitely choose my eyes, mainly because theyâre 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 âah wellâ I sighed. I suppose I am ok with my figure, Iâm not fat but im not skinny, but at least I tan well, itâs 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, âbut maybe if IâŠâ I thought as a stuck my chest out, âyes thatâs betterâ I thought as I smiled into the mirror.
âNo I do notâ he laughed âand are you quite finished?â
âOh yeah sorryâ I laughed
âKeep them, you look good, itâs nice to have a change every now and then.â
âWhat like you always in jeans and a t shirtâ I said grinning at him. âOkâ I said as I pulled off my top âI will keep themâ
âWhat are you doing?â asked Gabriel holding on to my arm
âIâm changingâ I answered
âYou should leave it on for tonightâ
âNo, Iâll wear them some other timeâ
âok Iâll make you a deal thenâ Gabriel said âyou can change back into some other clothes if you wear this outfit at school some time next weekâ I saw his eyes sparkle as he grinned at me waiting for my answer,
âFineâ I said after a minute âdeal.â I never could resist him, especially when he does that cheeky grin.
âYou are so beautifulâ 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
âUm thanksâ 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?
âUrm soâŠâ he said looking as though he just let something slip. He sighed then went and sat down on my bed âso, what do you want to do?â 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 âI love youâ 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 âwhat are we doing later, you know, when the others get here?â 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.
âLana? Are you crying?â
âNoâ I mumbled âListen, im just going to have a bath ok. You can play with Dylan if you wantâ 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.
âOkâ said Gabriel looking a bit uncomfortable âhave funâ
When five oâclock had finally come, I heard Breeâs special knock for the door, two rings, three knocks and then two more rings, âwait hereâ 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
âCome on girlâ said Bree âdonât have all eveningâ.
I pushed the handle down on the door then opened it, âyou could have just walked in you know, it was openâ
âOh well, its open nowâ she grinned happily walking through the door followed by Willow and Demitri, then to my surprise Kiah walked in behind them
âHey guysâ I said hugging them all tightly. âKiah, I didnât think you were coming because you werenât at schoolâ
Kiah grinned then said âcourse I wouldnât bail on you,â she paused then added âunless I was spewing everywhereâ then followed the guys in so I could close the door.
âWhereâs Dylan?â asked Bree looking around
âYou just missed him, he is in his cot, sleepingâ
âOk Iâll just give these to you thenâ she said holding out a big Adamsâ bag
âThanksâ I answered taking it from her and putting it on the floor by the door.
âWe brought some alcoholâ said Willow
âAndâ said Demitri âsome pillowsâ I looked at him questioningly âI figured on the off chance we got drunk we may not make it home so we may as well be comfyâ
âgood Ideaâ said Bree âguess what DVD I broughtâ she said grinning as I led the way up the stairs to my bedroom and sat down next to Gabriel
âtake a seat guysâ I said when they didnât 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.
âWell I brought a fewâ Bree said pulling out a case from her bag âI thought we could be childish and watch a few Disneyâsâ 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 âThe Lion Kingâ 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 âwhat? Iâm thirsty.â
âDrink water thenâ Demitri muttered into her ear
âI already got comfyâ 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 overâs as it would fit all six of us in with space enough to be comfortable.
âYouâre so luckyâ said Kiah âyour room is so big! And I would kill to have this bedâ she told me poking me in the leg;
I laughed and said âyeah itâs just like having my own apartment really and all thatâs missing is the kitchen.â 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 donât 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, dadâs room and Dylanâs soon to be bedroom was on the first floor. But oddly the downstairs was my favourite bit of
