❀ Noelle's POV
*Brringgg!* *Brringgg!* *Brringgg!* *Brringgg!*
I frown and roll to my side to turn off the alarm clock but accidentally roll too much and end up hitting the ground.
"I'm awake, I'm awake" I mutter, a yawn engulfing my last few words.
I sigh and get up from the ground, angrily unplugging the alarm from the socket. I drag my tired bones into the shower and take a long hot bath. It was afternoon already and I had to get to the my new job in a couple of hours.
I walk out, dragging my feet as I towel my hair dry, and pick out some clothes. I tie my hair in a low ponytail, get dressed and walk downstairs to warm up some of my dad's carbonara which I'd brought home after eating two plates full.
I smile happily to myself as I wait for the microwave to ding. It does shortly just as my doorbell rings. Then an impatient knock comes on the door.
"Noelle? Are you in there?".
I make a face.
"What do they want now?" I groan, stamping my foot.
The knock comes again, followed by the doorbell twice.
"Noelle are you doing okay, sweetie?".
I sigh and drag my feet to go open the door.
"Noe...".
She trails off as I open the door.
"Oh thank goodness" she sighs, stepping up to hug me.
I gently pat her back and wait for her to let me go.
"I was so worried about you. Are you okay?".
I smile.
"Yes Glay. I'm fine" I answer.
I peep around and make a face.
"Where's Jen?" I ask.
"Oh she's at Phyllis'. They're planning a surprise birthday party for her husband tonight. He also just got promoted at work so we're celebrating double".
I smile.
"That's nice".
"Actually, that's what I came to talk to you about".
"Oh?" I arch a brow and lean against the doorframe.
"Well, I'm in charge of food for the party and I was wondering if you could help me out?".
"Oh, I actually can't. Sorry. I have to be at work in a couple of hours and it's my first day so I can't...".
"Oh, that's okay then. I'll just figure it out on my own. Maybe I'll ask Matt... if I find him" she sighs. “Thanks anyway. And you're invited, of course".
Ohhhhh I'm going to regret this.
"Wait" I call out.
Glay quickly turns.
"How about I do appetizers and dessert and you take care of drinks and the main meal?".
Her brown eyes light up.
"Wait, really?".
I nod.
"Yes, I could really use being around a lot of food rig...".
She squeals and jumps up to hug me.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!".
I chuckle.
