Angel sighed and tapped her pen against her note pad it was Christmas Eve and she was hella nervous about everything being perfect and organised. She of course left the cleaning until last minute because she hated cleaning large spaces, she also had Christmas break homework and she was yet to put the fairy lights up in the garden, she decided that would would clean up, do the fairy lights have dinner then do her homework.

She was cleaning the living room while listening to music, one of her favourite songs started playing Jenny by Studio Killers, "I wanna ruin our friendship
We should be lovers instead
I don't know how to say this
'Cause you're really my dearest friend
I wanna ruin our friendship
I don't know how to say this
'Cause you're really my dearest friend
Jenny, take my hand
'Cause we are more than friends
I will follow you until the end
Jenny, take my hand
I cannot pretend
Why I never like your new boyfriends." She was dancing round the living room with the hoover at this point,

not noticing her mother filming her or her father snickering behind his hand at his youngest daughter. Her song ended and another started and she was now up on the couch and coffee table still not noticing her family and singing at the top of her lungs
"Shut up, count your calories
I never looked good in mom jeans
Wish I was like you
Blue-eyed blondie, perfect body
Maybe I should try harder
You should lower your expectations
I'm no quick-curl barbie
I was never cut out for prom queen
If I get more pretty
Do you think he will like me?"
