On the (honking) bus
It's now been a whole week since my little run-in with Josh, but I cant stop thinking about it. Today, I decided to get the bus. BIG MISTAKE! It stinks in here! I mean it really stinks!
30 seconds later
Someone has just set off a stinker.

School
After about 20 years, I finally got off that bus. Sam and Elly were waiting for me.
"Hey Libby!" said Sam, "Going to Dani's party on Saturday?"
"I didn't know she was having one." I said.
"Oh, she hasn't told you!" Elly said, looking surprised, "But Dani and you have been mates since you were kids."
"Whatever, I'll drop by anyways." I said.
"Libby!" I heard from behind, "Libby! He asked me out!"

Bex has not shut up about Josh for ages. I can hear her telling Rebekah Winters behind me.
"He is just SO hot!" I hear her saying.
She should see him in drag.

OMIGIDDYGOD! I am stuck between my mates party and my best pals relationship with my ex "boyfin" and all Miss Wilson can talk about is her so-called problems from when she was at school with the Queen and Tom Thumb and whoever else was walking about in those days.
So Daniela invited me to her party on Saturday and all, then my so-called best mate Bex says,
"Libby! Josh and me are going to the movies on Saturday and so are you! I've got no idea what to say and besides, Josh told me that he has a mate who you'd really like!"
"But Bex, I've got…"
"Please!" she begged, "I'd do anything for you! Please Libby!"
So I accepted. And just to make it all better, the date starts an hour after Daniela's party and ends half an hour before. Double Merdi!

Shopping with Bex
It's the day before the party and date, and I'm late-night shopping with Bex for outfits to wear to the big date. We've got our eyes on these dresses (spaghetti strap black for Bex, strapless baby pink for me.)
"Bex," I said as we tried them on, "My nungas are like, 2 inches. How can I go a whole night without pulling up my dress?"
"Try wearing a padded bra and put a bit of tissue paper in it. It really works, Kirsty does it all the time!"
"Bex, do you really think that I want to look like your brothers girlfriend?"
I hate Kirsty. I mean, she's nice and pretty and smart and all, but it doesn't mean she's perfect-right?
Midnight
In bed
In the end, Bex got a black strapless dress and I got a purple one with straps. Daniela phoned.
"Hey Libbs! Just to say, the theme for my party is black and white, so wear your leather skirt and the white shirt with the netted sleeves."
"Danz, do you need a theme?" I said.
"Yep," she said, "Gotta go, my vati's moaning at me. Luv ya, just not in a lezzy way!"
She hung up.
Triple Merdi.
Ten minutes later
I have finally figured out my plan. I will arrive at Daniela's early and hide my dress in the loo somewhere, then party for an hour, run into the loos, change, meet Bex at the movies, go on the date, then leave half an hour early, get back to Dannie's and party until the end.
God, I am turning into Hannah Montana!
Five minutes later
Then again, what if Dannie realises I'm not at the party? Or Bex comes to the party before her date? Or an atomic bomb blows up the earth?
