Day 4: Best Friends

"Lucy, can you say hi to Blaine?" Judy Fabray said in a sickeningly sweet tone, smiling nervously at Victoria Anderson. Lucy simply shook her head, hiding behind her mother's legs.
"Oh for God's sake Lucy, don't be so ridiculous" Judy hissed before regaining her composure and plastering another fake smile on as she knelt next to her daughter.
"Please Lucy, for mommy". Lucy cautiously stepped out from behind her mother and raised a hand in a wave. The boy with the dark curly hair and funny eyebrows waved back with a goofy grin.
"See now, was that so hard?" Judy smiled at the two children.
"Shall we go and uh, have a drink? Leave the kids to it?" Victoria suggested, ambiguously.
"What a great idea Vicky, play nicely Lucy" she called before following her friend into the kitchen. Blaine and Lucy stood in silence for a few moments, she fiddled with the dress she hated wearing and he carefully studied the ground, his hands neatly behind his back.
"Would you like to go and play with my dolls?" Blaine finally suggested.
"You have dolls?" Lucy perked up. She had never met a boy who liked dolls before.
"Yep, we can name one Lucy if you'd like?" Lucy's smile widened as she nodded, clutching on to Blaine's hand as he dragged her upstairs.

"I can't believe you're leaving for New York tomorrow" Quinn whimpered for what must've been the hundredth time that day, watching Blaine pack the last of his things into his suitcase. Sighing, she glanced around his room, it had never looked so bare.
"Quinnie, listen to me, you're going to Yale, that's what- an hour and a half away? We'll still see each other all the time, I'm going to be annoying you almost every weekend!" he lightly squeezed her shoulder and chuckled.
"Yeah but I'm used to you annoying me everyday" she protested, this time with a smile. He quickly pulled her into a hug.
"You'll always be my best friend Luce, you're not getting rid of me that easily" Quinn smiled into Blaine's chest, blinking away the few tears forming. "
Besides, you're coming to wave me off tomorrow, right?" Blaine sniffed as he pulled away from Quinn's embracing, his arms remaining around her waist.
"Well I was thinking about staying home and watching grass grow, but I guess I could" Blaine chuckled, despite the lameness of Quinn's joke.
"Oh how I'm going to miss you" he pulled her back into his arms.
"I'm going to miss you laughing at my lame jokes! No one else does!" she began to complain again.
"Text me at least one lame joke a week, I guarantee you I'll laugh out loud and everyone'll think I'm a freak" he smiled, his eyes beginning to water again.
"That's 'cos you are a freak! But I wouldn't love you any other way" Quinn whispered, her arms tightening around Blaine's neck as she closed her eyes.
"I love you too Luce"

Yesterday brought the beginning, tomorrow brings the end, and somewhere in the middle we became the best of friends. ~Author Unknown
