The ring of the phone made my head pound

The ring of the ph whizz made my head pound. I covered my ears as I walked towards the phone in a fragile manner. after a long night out in London, the sound of the phone was particularly what I wanted to hear. I scrambled over the edge of the wait room and clumsily grabbed the phone.Hello? I said sleepily.Hi Chrissie, how are you? Feeling any better?Oh hi Will, I actually feel terrible, I could do with some fresh air.Good because I want to take you out somew here(predicate), I commitnt seen you for agesHe was right wing. It had probably been six weeks since we had seen each other properly, and he oldest and topper friend. I asked him where he suggested we went.I dont k promptly, maybe Ill drive us out to my Aunts old cottage in the country. Get away from it all.It definitely sounded appealing. I involve it and so did Will. He had left for America and had been gone for three long weeks. When he got venture I was laming and couldnt meet him. Then I became ill.Youre on I said exc itedly.Cant wait, byeHe sounded pleased. Those few precious moments I had with him were fantastic. We had so much fun. I sprung up and bounded into my bedroom.Five minutes later, I appeared, pulling on my jacket. I turned of the television. The buzzer rang.Delivery, giggled Will. travel along on up.Will had always been a joker, ever since we were in our earliest school days. I opened the door and I was greeted by Will. A huge banana grin spread across his face, he had a glowing tan. He had one of those smiles that lit up the whole room. I shut the door and locked it behind me. When we got to the bottom of the stairs, he turned to face me and opened his arms I threw mine a roach his neck. He buried his face in my hair, squeezing me tight.Come on, we can catch up on the way. The tone of his voice was a well-chosen one. I hurried into his mini cooper. Its alright for some I thought to myself. I sat down and did up my seatbelt.What have you been doing since the last time I saw you? he asked, turning on the radio.Not much because Ive been off work, scarcely turkey cock and I did go down to his mums for a couple of days, but thats about it.Will had always been uncomfortable about me and Tom. He thought that Tom wasnt good enough for me. But he lived with it, after all he was my best friend. As my boyfriend, Tom thought that I spent too much time with Will.What did you get up to in America? I said, nerve-racking to change the subject.Erm, he stalled for a moment.I did lots of photo shoots and recorded and interview for a chat show.There was silence. My life seemed so boring compared to his. He was always bounding off somewhere or another flash.Do you know what? I whispered.What? replied Will.I want you to sing for me.Why? said Will sound rather shocked.Because the last time you did we were about eighteen.He turned up the car stereo and skipped to track fourteen and doing as he was told, he quietly began to sing Cut to the chase, your pretty face, search outer s pace, leaving no trace.I closed my look, tipped back my head and let the words flop over me, resembling waves onto the sand. At school everyone had nicknamed him Golden Tonsils, and now he fitted that name more than ever. As his voice faded I flicked my eyes back open and looked at him.Lets play a game he squealed with a childish glint in his eye.Okay, lets play name that tune, you start. He began to hum.About an moment later we pulled up outside his Aunts old house. It was bonnyly situated, at the top of a small hill. Will got out and opened the garden gate. I followed him round to the back of the house. I slumped into a patio chair.We can eat our sandwiches and stuff here, he said.Okay, Ill have chicken pleaseWill walked off into the house to lick lunch. Suddenly my phone began to buzz on the table. I picked it up and answered it.Hello? I asked.Is Tom there? said the voice.No Im sorry hes not here at the moment, can I ask whos calling?Its Lucy, his girlfriend. I froze in sho ck.Alright Ill dissever him to call you.The phone dropped from my grip and my eyes filled with tears.Whats treat? questioned Will concerned, as he appeared in the doorway.That was Lucy, Toms girlfriend, I mumbled.But what?I broke down in tears.Oh Chrissie, he said coming over to me. He understood and knelt by me to put his arm round my shoulder. I entangle safe in his arms, they formed a protective circle.I should have listened to you Will, you were right all along.Shhhh, dont consecrate that, he cooed. I sobbed, letting my head drop onto his shoulder. He lifted me up as though I was a plumage and sat me on his lap. I cried for what seemed like hours. I was interrupted again by my phone ringing. I turned to look at it, it said Tom mobile. Before I got chance to answer it Will cancelled the call.I dont want him to spoil our day, he said firmly, Im glad you told me everything instead of bottling it all up.If you say so.Well what do you want to do?I want to roll around on the gras s and get really muckyYou asked for it he call standing up and throwing me onto the grass. I screamed and tugged at his leg. He tumbled through the long grass, down the sloping garden. We landed in a patch of overgrown plants at the bottom of the hill. As he turned around I grabbed a handful of mud and threw it straight at his face, it dripped down past his nose. He gasped and send away about laughing. The phone rang again. I had to answer it.Hello, I said slightly out of breath.Chrissie, why did you hang up on me?Just leave me Tom, my eyes filled again.Will grabbed the phone and hung up on him. Tears slipped down my cheeks and plopped onto the grass.Its alright Chrissie, you dont need him, and I always knew he didnt deserve you.I should have listened to you Will.Its alright. He encircled me with his arms again. After a short while he suggested I went to wash all the mud out of my hair.Theres a shower in the main bathroom, you can use that, Ill use the en suite. I walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower.When I got out, my clothes were no where to be seen. I wrapped a towel around me and stepped out into the hall. I was face to face with Will.Just thought Id tell you that your clothes are in the washing machine, well have to find you something to put on. We scrambled through a wardrobe. There was one of his infamous sleeveless tops and some of his Aunts skirts.Thanks, I said waiting for him to leave. I got changed and walked into the kitchen. Will roared with laughter, the top almost reached my knees.How can it be dark? I asked sliding onto the worktop.Well you were in there for half an hourYoure kidding I said, shocked.Nope, do you want coffee?Yeah, sounds good.I followed him with my steaming mug into the living room. We sat on the sofa and sipped our coffee.Will, if you dont mind me asking, did you meet anyone in America? I asked cautiously.Of course I dont mind, I tell you anything and everything There was one, but we just had a couple of drink s.What was she like? I asked turning to face him.She was really nice, I wish I got her address so I could write to her.Didnt you even get her phone number? Will was normally more organised than that, I was surprised.No, I was going to get it but she had to work on the last day. I matt-up sorry for him.Anyway, tell me how the article went.Great, the editor loved it, I was really happy with it. We fell into silence. He looked at me with sympathy in his eyes. We talked late into the night, until I drifted off.The crash of thunder echoed around my room. I sat abscond up right in bed. I gasped as the thunder struck again. I ran from my bed and opened the door. I knocked on the guest room door.Come in, whispered Will a few moments later.I tip toed in and stood at the side of his bed.Im scared of thunder, I quivered.Come in here, he said lifting the covers back. I slid I and his put his arm around my shoulders.Youre shaking Why are you so scared of thunder? he asked after pausing. wholene ss summer when we were all on holiday abroad and I was only five, I was outside and it started raining. All I can remember is not cosmos able to find my mum. It began to rain hard and I hid in a corner. The thunder was booming so a man took me to the rep. I was alone for hours and I was so scared that something had happened to my family.The thunder clapped again, but louder.I hate this, I said over the roar of the thunder.You need to ignore it.How can I do that?Close your eyes.Why?Just do it, he said gently. immediately you just need to calm down and relax. He pushed my head back against the pillow. I felt his hand on my forehead as he massaged my temples. The thunder rumbled again but I didnt jump as much.Thats better, ignore it. I yawned. Go to sleep, he whispered. It wasnt that hard.As his lips pressed against mine I shivered.What are you doing Will? I asked as he kissed the side of my mouth.Dont you want this? he asked. I felt intrigued. I noddedKiss me, he whispered. He didnt waste a second before kissing me again.. Suddenly I was awake, sweating slightly.It had seemed so real, I couldnt believe what had just happened. My feelings had been so muddled recently I didnt know what to make of it.As the first beam of sunlight hit my face, I jumped up. It was Monday, work again. Will had already gone. I dressed quickly and grabbed my car keys and headed for the door. It had been mad couple of days. I arrived late so had to get straight to work.Where are the questions Im conjectural to be asking that guy today? I asked running clumsily through the office door.Over in your tray.Right, thanks. I picked them up.Room two, said someone walking past. I hadnt really got over the shock of my dream. I pushed open the door and the guy stood with his back turned, having his make up done.Typical, I muttered under my breath. He turned around. It was WillOh my Will, what are you doing here? I didnt know it was you I was interviewing.Hello Chrissie. I was not impressed. I l ooked at him and remembered why it felt weird. I blushed.Um, do you want to sit down? I asked, not taking my eyes off the written reportwork in front of me. He nodded. His huge eyes sparkled and he was smiling slightly. I had butterflies. He sat down in a large chair in front of me.So, Will, whats the title of your new album?Its called From Now On. I wrote down every word he said.Whats your favourite song on it? I asked still not taking my eyes off the paper in front of me. A door somewhere clicked, and closed. I could sense we were alone.When is it released? he sighed.Chrissie look at me. I didnt. His dactyl slid under my chin and he pulled my face up to look at him.Whats this all about? Why are you acting strangely?Nothing, I said, but my voice shook. He was beautiful in the dim light of the room.Chrissie, whats wrong, he repeated quietly ad I stared at the floor.Answer, he started But I silenced him with a finger to his lips. I put my head forward and captured his lips in mine. My eyes fluttered closed as I kissed him gently. I thought what am I doing? This could ruin everything. I wondered whether to tell him about my dream. It might unnerve him to discover that his best friend could quite possibly be in love with him.Will. I managed to look him in the eye.Yes?Ive got something to I think you ought to know, I said nervously. I took a occult breath.After some of the awful experiences Ive had in relationships recently, it made think.Go on, he said cautiously.I think, no I know that I want you. He looked away, and seemed confused. My heart sank. I knew I would regret telling him because I could now loose him as a friend.Im sorry, I was crazy to ever think you would feel the same.Well as it happens Ive got something to tell you too Chrissie. I wanted to tell you before but I thought it would break you.I felt awkward and tense, wondering what he had to tell me. Whatever he was going to say, looked like it was going to be bad news now.While I was over in the States, they offered me a fantastic contract working over there with a fantastic manager and a tour of my own. Its always been my dream to break America. But I came back here to think it through before reservation any decisions. Its such a huge step to take, to move away from all my friends and family because it means living there for three years.Oh. I was so indisputable hed take it.Ive thought long and hard about it and Ive decided that Im going to do it, its a once in a lifetime opportunity.I felt myself well up. Not only had I ruined my friendship with my best friend but I wouldnt see him for three years.But, he took a deep breath. After what youve just said.Yes?I want you to come with me
