Melaina’s p.o.v. Sydney and I arrived back at our flat it was about 730 and the party started at 9 so thought we would cook dinner then get ready for the party. We both ate and talked about how fun the party should be her and Harry has been texting all day and he can’t wait to see her at the party! I looked her "well lucky you I winked at her but you better not leave me the whole time" she giggled” I promise I won’t leave you the whole time but at least you have Liam you two could get to know each other it seems like he likes you!" I blushed " I mean he’s cute really sweet and funny but I don’t want to rush things honestly I want to become friends first and I don’t even think I’m ready for dating again." I felt tears stinging in my eyes they felt like they were all going to escape but Sydney wrapped her arms around me "oh my god Melaina I’m so sorry I totally forgot look just go get ready ill clean up down here okay?" I shook my head " look it’s not your fault for what happened and so don’t feel sorry cause you think you can’t talk about it I just prefer not to its too much to remember.." she looked at me "no Melaina I know what happened I need to just watch what I say around you okay let’s just forget this happened tonight and have fun at the party!" she smiled at me I smiled back and turned towards the stairs to my bedroom to get ready. Sydney’s p.o.v. Melaina looked like tears were about to spill out of her eyes then everything clicked with what just happened! I wrapped my arms around her as fast as I could I felt like such an asshole I’m one of her best friends and to forget everything that had happened to her in the past year. As she walked the stairs to get ready I put all the dishes in the sink and washing them and thinking about everything that had just happened now and over the past year to Melaina was scary if I was her I probably wouldn’t be alive! She lost so many people in her life she hates hospitals, she won’t walk across busy roads, and she shakes anytime she’s near a ditch I’m surprised she actually drives still. There was three different accidents in the same year the first one she cried the days it happened and a little bit after but there would be nights where she would cry I’m her sleep but no one could wake her up she just cried. After a month or two she went back to normal or what seemed normal besides all the dreams she still had, after about four months the second accident happened she was down at her dads for the weekend when I got a call at 1130 pm from her I answered she was sobbing uncontrollably I screamed into the phone asking her what’s wrong after getting her sobs and breaths under control I asked again what was wrong and where she was? " I’m at the hospital and its Klover my baby cousin her hearts failing they tried to sedate her to take her to Riley’s hospital then her heart started failing there’s nothing they can’t do anything she’s dying" I felt tears sting in my eyes "Melaina listen to me I’m here for you your my best friend ill help you through anything and everything" I heard more sobs before she spoke " I kissed her forehead it felt so cold like she’s been gone for days she’s my baby girl she’s my little cousin I’m the oldest I’m supposed to take care of them all..." "Melaina you will you’ll be the perfect big cousin doing everything for them but this time Klover will be the one looking over you!" After that night I didn’t hear from Melaina in months she wouldn’t come out of her room for anything her mom brought everything to her! The dreams got a little worse she wake up from them crying in panic attacks she would be gasping for air and would rush to the bathroom to take a bathroom trying to regain her breaths and would take a bath it seemed to be the only thing to calm her! She got better after about 5 months! But when the third accident came I couldn’t even be the one to explain but it was the worse of them all. I was pulled out of my thoughts as Melaina called my name! Melaina’s p.o.v. "Sydney can you come curl my hair?" I called down the stairs to her she called back "of course baby cakes!" Sydney curled my hair and then I did hers it was now 830 we both got changed and did our make up! I threw on my sparkly pencil skirt with my white cutoff shirt I tucked it in and got my black heels on I turned to my jewelry box and put in my silver dangly ice looking earrings in and my two layered necklace with icily points coming off. I looked in the mirror and started to do my makeup I did Smokey eyes and bright red lipstick as I was finished I was looking in the mirror it need one more touch I went into my closet and got my black leather jacket out I mumbled perfect to myself! I turned around to see Sydney walk in my room with still just her hair done and very frustrated look on her face "what’s wrong I asked?" she looked at me "ugh you look so pretty I have like nothing to wear I just don’t think I want to go we have no time to stop at any stores!" "No don’t say that I have the perfect outfit for you and I’ll do your make up to!" I smiled at her "really thank you" I giggled " don’t thank me you’ve helped me a lot before!" we both laughed I went to my closet and pulled out a sparkly black romper and my coral orange leather jacket and my sliver sparkly heels I turned back to my jewelry box and pulled out a light teal droplet necklace and put it around her neck! She sat down I started her make I did very bright neutral colors and a golden orange lipstick! I took a step back and looked at my master piece I smiled to myself "oh I’m good!" Sydney looked in the mirror "oh my god more like fantastic I love it" she smiled at me so happily!
