stripe of a lighter purple, continuing the pattern until the dress hit knee length.
"Its cute" she said " Perfect for your first day in Charleston."
"Thanks," I said "and I promise I'll V-chat you as much as possible, i'll always have it on when I'm at home in my room, if I'm not studying or something."
"Okay," she said dragging me to the accessories table, "And you have to let me pick you out a bunch of outfits to introduce your auh-mazing personality."
I sighed. "If you insist," I smiled.
Lexie had been my best friend since first grade when I had brought cookies for lunch. She was a bit taller than me with Blonde shoulder length hair and Hazel eyes.
I came back to reality, we were at the checkout. Lexie handed the cashier the money, I grabbed the bag full of outfits she insisted on buying me, and we headed out to our bikes. I threw the bag in the basket, and we pedaled away to my house. I checked the time once more: 12 o'clock, I was defiantly back in time.
Once we got to my house I gave Lexie a huge hug. "See you tomorrow," I said almost choked up. "We leave at noon tomorrow, so come at eleven for our goodbyes," I suddenly couldn't talk.
Lexie took a deep breath, her eyes suddenly getting watery "Okay," she replied with a shaky voice "Love you Jazz". I gave her a hug and turned to walk in my house. I closed the door, and a tear slid down my cheek. I turned to look out the window, to watch Lexie pedal away. I took a deep breath, and leaned my head against the door and let the tears fall. As I sobbed I heard my brother, Kyle, walk up behind me.
"I'm sorry sis." Kyle said. He was a year older then me, but because I looked and acted older than i was, people thought we were twins. I turned and hugged him. I cried on his shoulder for a little while before I stopped to wash up for lunch. He look at me, hesitant to leave me alone, "It'll be okay sis. You'll still get to see her." I didn't say anything so he walked to his room to wash up also.
I walked to the hall bathroom and looked in the mirror. My eyes were red, and you could tell I had been crying. I grabbed some foundation but it didn't make a difference. I sighed and went to sit at the table. I thought about what I was going to do without Lexie while dinner was being served. I didn't know. In fact, I hadn't even seen our house. My mom said she wanted to surprise me and my brother with our rooms. They were already decorated, because I chose a few things I liked to put in it, but that's all they let me see. I hoped it looked good. I grabbed my lunch and ate in silence. No one asked questions because they knew I was upset over leaving Lexie and everything here.
