Thought of this chapter, this morning when I was woken by a RADIO of the workers fixing our street. Grrrr 7am, is bit too early for me. But I guess I'll forgive them, since they inspired me.

Delto27 on LJ convinced me to update tonight, so here you have it

Review please ;)

Chapter 12

Sian pov

She kissed my neck sending shivers down my spine. I closed my eyes taking in the feeling.

As we got out of our embrace I saw she was frowning, she was miles away. I stroked her hair

"Come on let's go back to my room" I said.

When we got to my room, I automatically locked the door and looked at a confused Sophie. I quickly unlocked the door when I realized what I did.

"Sorry, became a bit of habit since Mary…" I explained.

"Look let's not talk about her anymore" I suggested and she nodded at me in agreement.

We both sat on the ground. She started playing with her fingers, while I was looking around the room thinking of a conversation subject.

I remembered the box. "Hey!" I squealed, startling her.

"Uhm… we never got to finish getting to know the basis stuff about each other" I muttered embarrassed by my outburst.

I started turning my closet upside down looking for the box. "Aha" I sang quietly when I spotted it.

"Here we go" I beamed.

"You know, you could also just tell me the basis stuff" I tried

She sighed. "Or not, you don't have to do anything, I just thought …" I rambled raising my hands up.

She rolled her eyes and took the box from me. She took out a color palette. She chuckled.
"It's for your favorite colour" I told her as she smirked at me.

"Better show me you fav colour, it took bloody ages to make that" I told her pointing to the colour palette.

She pointed to green. I smiled and pointed to red, she was now smiling at me.

"See, this is fun" I gestured at the box.

She looked at the box, with a grin on her lips. She put her hand in the box and took out Pictionary notebook.

She bit her lip and looked at me with raised eyebrows. "Well I wanted to know you fav food, movie, and stuff. and…and well I couldn't actually put real food in it now could I…." I stuttered

She started laughing at me.

"What… I…?" I started to say when I heard Gertie singing happy birthday. "O right jess' birthday party is tonight" I thought

She looked at the door with furrowed brows. "it's jess' birthday today, we always celebrate birthdays" I smiled.

I took her hand "come on you can help me choose a dress" I said as I opened my closet.

I spotted the white summer dress I bought online a couple of months ago. Thankfully they delivered to 'mental institutions' I sniggered at my own thought.

I got it out of my closet and held it up to Sophie.

"What do you think?" I asked her "I've been saving it for a specific occasion, and trust me we don't get lots of them in here" I joked.

She sniggered and nodded her head quickly. "Yeah? Okay great" I said pleased.

"Okay, now let's find something for you ay" I said to her my eyes not leaving my closet

She tapped on my arm. I looked up and saw her confusion.

"What?" I asked her, her frown now getting bigger. She started shaking her head.

"As if I'm gonna let you go back to your room, when that's psycho still in there" I stated

She rolled her eyes and sighed. She started making her way back to my bed

"Look… I'm just scared okay" I said as I sat next to her.

She sighed again, but started grimacing at my closet.

"Thank you" I smiled at her, giving her hand a gentle squeeze.

….

Sophie pov

Sian gave me a short, yellow strapless dress that hung by my sides. "It's a little tight though" I thought

"You look gor…. The dress really looks good on you" she said I could feel her eyes trailing all over my body.

I was a little startled, I didn't hear her come in. she chuckled as I turned around

I gulped at the sight of Sian in front of me. She was wearing a simple, white summer dress, but it looked gorgeous on her. It hugged her in all the right places and showed a right amount of cleavage.

I didn't realize I was staring at her body until Sian cleared her voice. I looked up and I saw her blushing.

"Uhm.. yyou're…. rready?" she stuttered.

I nodded awkwardly. My heart was beating so fast I was sure it was gonna thump out of my chest.

As Sian took my hand, I stopped "shoes" I thought as I looked at my feet. I looked at Sian's feet and noticed her bare foot.

I furrowed my brows. "Jesse won't let us ware our shoes at her party anyway, so..." she said awkwardly.

I chuckled. "Okay" I thought. She started chuckling with me. "It's a Jesse thing" she stated, as she took my hand again.

We both made our way to the dining room. The dining room seemed to be transformed into scene out of the Mickey Mouse club. It was full of decorations. There were balloons hanging everywhere.

Out of the corner of my eye I saw Sian's excitement; I smiled at how overruling her inner child was. "What you smiling at?" she caught me off guard and I started blushing.

"Ah Sophie, Sian you made it to my partey" Jesse beamed clapping her hands in excitement.

"Uhm yeah" Sian chuckled.

"Come sit, eat, enjoy" Jesse said leading us to 'our table' as she called it.

We had been 'attending' Jesse's party for a while now, when Mary made her way over to me.

I gulped, didn't really explain anything. She raised her eyebrow at me.

"Leave her alone Mary, she's not buying your shit anymore" Sian scowled at her.

"Really? Is that so? Sophie?" she asked as she turned her gaze to me. I didn't know what to do. I started biting the inside of my cheek.

"How long has she been working on you?" she spat. "I thought we was friends?" she said.

She really did seem genuine, I felt bad for her. So I pulled out a chair for her.

I didn't dare to look at Sian, who had now her WTF face on.

After a while they turned stereo on and the tables were pushed aside.

I was pushing a table by myself when Sian came to help me. I could see the anger in her eyes.

"What the fuck are you doing Sophie" she hissed at me. She pulled me aside clenching my wrist.

"I pour my heart out to you and 6 hours later you act like I never said anything" she uttered angrily.

I opened my mouth, but nothing came out of it as I shook my head. I looked at Mary and then back at her. I wanted to explain to her, reason with her that Mary might've changed.

"That was really hard for me to tell you" she said with a sad tone to her voice as she walked away.

I wanted to go after her but Kathy stopped me.

"Don't!" she ordered me.

I wanted to walk past her but she blocked my way, I was starting to get annoyed.

"What you did before was way out of order" she said

"O for fuck sakes" I thought

I kept looking at Sian, my gaze never leaving her until she turned around the corner.

"Look I know Sian told you things about her past with Mary, I don't know why, but I know that was really hard for her. You not believing her really hurt her." She stated.

I started playing with the hem of my dress. I did believe her, I just wasn't sure that I didn't believe Mary.

She pushed me towards the hallway and pushed me against the wall. I winced in pain from the impact.

"Look Sian doesn't let people in… EVER, but for some reason she let you in. I'm not gonna stand by and watch you hurt her" she spat pushing my shoulders harder against the wall.

I wanted to shout at her, but I didn't. I knew she was only protecting Sian; I couldn't blame her for that. Thankfully Gertie spotted us in time.

"What's going on here?" she demanded.

"Nothing" Katy said in all innocence as she let go of me.

She started making her way back to the party when Gertie held on to her arm and whispered something in her ear. Kathy glared at me and nodded.

"You know, Sophie… for someone who doesn't say anything, you sure get yourself into lots of quarrels" Gertie stated.

I looked at the ground. "Look I know you can't help it, but please try and stay out of Sian and Mary's warzone" she pleaded.

I sighed out of frustration and threw my arms in the air "I am, I'm trying to be Switzerland for fuck sakes" I thought.

She started walking away "and by that I mean pick a side, don't stay in the middle of it" she mumbled.

Sian pov

I slammed the door of the bathroom shut. "I can't believe Sophie" I thought as a placed my hands on the sink looking in the mirror.

I closed my eyes, and started taking deep breaths. I heard the door opening behind me, but I didn't bother opening my eyes.

I felt someone placing their hand on my own. I opened my eyes, and saw a pair blue ones looking back into my own.

"What do you want" I asked her trying to push her hand away, but she took hold of me.

"Sian" Sophie murmured. I think my stomach just flipped over 13 times. "She talked to me before, but hearing her saying my name… God" I thought, as my breathing increased and became heavy.

But I was still pissed off at her. "What are you doing Sophie, what do you want" I hissed at her, shuffling closer to her.

She took a step back and smirked. I frowned "why are you looking at me like that" I shouted.

She smirked again, and that's when I noticed she was holding something in her hand. She put it in my hands.

It was the Pictionary notebook; I was still frowning oblivious to what she wanted. She sighed out of impatience and opened the note book.

First page: a drawing of chicken with what looked like mushrooms around it.

Second page: a picture of an umbrella, some raindrops and music notes.

"Wtf is this supposed to…" I thought as bells went off in my head.

"First must be her fav food and the second her fav movie, not sure which one though. Maybe a musical of some kind…" my mind trailed off as I was still staring at the pictures.

I didn't fight her, when she dragged me out of the bathroom and back to the party. I was clutching the notebook, trying to suppress the smile that was forming on my lips.

She took the notebook out of my hands and placed on a table. She looked into my eyes and took hold of both my hands.

A slow song was playing. I think it was Regina Spector singing fidelity, but I wasn't sure. I was paying more attention to Sophie's hands, which were now finding their way around my waist pulling me close.

She started dancing with me as she put her head on my shoulder. I didn't want to forgive her, not yet anyways, but she was making it really hard not to

"I'm still mad at you" I muttered in her ear. She turned her head to me and nodded pulling me painfully close. I felt her stroking my back.

"Fuck it, I can be mad at her tomorrow, now I just want to dance with her" I thought as I wrapped my arms around her shoulders, enjoyed having her in my arms. The music went on.

'of this music
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
When it breaks my heart
And suppose I never ever met you
Suppose we never fell in love
Suppose I never ever let you
Kiss me so sweet and so soft'
