Hi guys!
So Rose won´t appear for quite sometime. She is studying up road. So what would be better for a Manhattan story to start with the characters leaving for the Hamptons xD. So enjoy the first real chapter and please review.
This story is set up in a mixed style of Clarisse p.o.v. and the neutral p.o.v.

Chapter one: Manhattan and Hamptons
The bell rang. I ran through my closet to threw a few more shoes into my big suitcase. I hear a key opening the door of my big one room single apartment. The one my mother used to own. I heard the familiar sound of brand new Manolo vans. I looked into the mirror. I was wearing black leggings with a silver long Tang Top. I quickly put on my silver peep toes.
"Are you ready?" Clarisse got out of the closet with a big suitcase and her hand bag under her arm. Jonny wore nude skin tight jeans and a black t-shirt with a picture of sunglasses on it. He wore his new black vans. "Oh my god you are on time!" Jonny had a look on the face like small children when they find they open presents on Christmas Eve. He turned round to leave, but then he heard Clarisse, "My suitcase…" He just turned round and said, "Have we ever met?" He left. Five minutes later Clarisse got also in the black limousine car. "I had to carry my suitcase down and now my feet hurt." "I had to carry it to floors down." They burst out laughing.
A drive through the bad traffic of Manhattan in an ordered car later Clarisse and Jonny met a beach dress wearing Lilly and a shorts and t-shirts wearing Brady. Both wore flip flops. All of them had a big suitcase and a bag with something for the long drive so they could entertain themselves. "Hi! Can´t believe it. The Jitney like the bus to the summer camp", Lilly giggled. "Aren´t you too styled?", Brady asked Clarisse and Jonny. "What the heck it´s New York!" "You can´t be too styled." They shouted. They all got in the bus. It took them five ours to get through the New Yorker traffic to finally arrive in the Hamptons.
"Ah this house is so gorgeous!" The three friends could hear the excitement in Lilly`s voice. "So what shall we cook for lunch?" "Cook!" Clarisse and Jonny looked like children who were told that the Christ child isn´t real. "Yeah cook. You know making something to eat in a kitchen?", Brady said with a annoyed voice. "We can´t cook." "Oh and how do you eat?" Clarisse rolled her eyes. "It is Manhattan. We order." "But this isn´t Manhattan. We are now in the Hamptons and here people buy ingredients and cook." "Guys chill down!" With that Jonny separated Brady and Clarisse before they start a fight. "What is that?", Lilly asked. "My carry on bag where I keep my toilet things." Lilly gave Jonny an annoyed look. "Nobody needs so many heir care products and lotions." "Well then I am nobody." "Guys, guys think of the important things! The beach party we have to get ready!" And all of them got in their rooms. They had two sleeping rooms. One was shared by Clarisse and Jonny and the other one was shared by Brady and Lilly.
Five hours later they met in the living room. Clarisse wore a red hot pants and a black maxi t-shirt. Jonny wore a short black skin tight jeans and a black muscle shirt with a blue yin-yang print. Brady wore simple black shorts with a dark green t-shirt. Lilly was the last one who came in. She wore a beach dress. "Lilly are you going to take a bag with you?", Clarisse asked. "No you? My dress has pockets." "Of course not it`s a beach party." They all put on last season flip flops and start to go to the party.
"Man we haven´t eaten lunch." Everyone could hear Brady´s stomach. "Don´t worry we could eat the snacks at the party." Lilly said and suddenly her voice turned a bit angry. "Guys do you need to smoke!" "No we just so hungry." Clarisse and Jonny heated on their Malboros. It felt like hours till they arrive at the beach party. Brady just talked to the first person he saw. "Excuse me. Where are the waters with the snacks?" "There are no snacks the other boy laughed." They saw one of the few waters. "Hey !", Jonny screamed. "We want four martinis with six olives for each." "I think you hate olives?", Lilly asked. "I am so hungry." "Yes you have to be very hungry", Clarisse mocked Jonny. A few moments later they sat on a bench with their cocktails. "I hate olives"; Lilly spoke up. But they all kept on eating their olives and drink their martinis. Then they headed to the dance floor. They did the unbelievable thing. Jonny and Clarisse left their shoes near were they sat so they could dance more easily in the sand. Although the party was bullshit compared to the famous "Chaos".
Just in time martinis weren´t enough. And so Brady went to get some cocktails for us, his under aged friends, long island ice teas. I was wondering what parents are doing now. And I start to think about me and my friends again. We were defiantly children of the big city. But all we have learned in Manhattan has not brought us luck in love. I felt something liquid on my cheeks. Oh my god I started to cry. Luckily I could suppress it before Lilly and Jonny notice it.
"Hey our cocktails!" They drank the cocktails very quickly. "The Party sucks!", yelled Jonny defiantly not sober. "You bet it is." Lilly also sounded annoyed. They append some time near the tequila bar, but then they left
But then it happened. My stomach started to hurt and then I had to throw up. I got down on my knees and started to cry while being sick. Jonny hold my hear so it didn´t get dirty and Brady and Lily rubbed my back in comfort.
Yes this is friendship. Friends hold your hair when you be sick and comfort you when you cry. Doesn´t matter if you are in the big city or country side or beach girlfriends and boyfriends come and go are in or out like fashion, but friends are like Channel costumes they are always in fashion and always important to you.
