Feathers exploded from my pillow. The whole ground was covered in feathers now.

"Alanaaa!" I laughed and charged for her again with my already empty pillow. The pillow - or half pillow - collided with Alana's giggling face. More feathers came out of the pillow, leaving it completely empty.

"Oh, Nic. That's the seventh pillow we've killed," Alana said through laughter. I laughed back. Yesterday, I slept over at my best friend's - Alana, obviously - house. Throughout the whole night, all we've been doing is marathoning Vampire Diaries and eating pizza. Oh, and of course, college courses. We're seniors at Marina, so it's bound to happen. But right now, it's the biggest pillow fight of all time.

I turned around to grab another pillow to throw at Lana - Alana - but found none. When I turned back to look at her, she had three pillows in her arms. The most feather stuffed pillows she owned.

"You're dead." She said with a smirk, before attacking me. I screamed and ducked for cover once the first pillow reached me. Pink, gray, and mint green feathers exploded from the pillows. They created a snow-fall of feathers and Alana and I landed on the carpet, making feather angels. We exploded into more laughter when we discovered both of our heads entangled with feathers. I sat down criss-cross in front of Alana and stared at her pink, gray, white and green wig of feathers and took a picture off of my phone. It was a keeper. I showed the picture to Lana and we both started laughing again. My cheeks started hurting from smiling and laughing from a full minute of laughing, but I didn't care. She took a picture of me, too, and I exploded into laughter again. My strawberry blonde hair was covered in mostly pink and white feathers, somewhat in the shape of a flower crown, only in the front of my head, though. The back was a complete mess of white, green, pink and gray. We smiled at each other and looked around at the room.

"Oh, what a mess! We'll have to clean this up later, but first, I need some waffles. Or cereal. Maybe pizza." Lana said, and began to stand up. She grabbed her thick-rimmed glasses and put on her favorite fuzzy socks. It was early fall in California, so the kitchen floor was ice cold.

"My socks are sooo far," I said with a groan. Lana laughed as she watched me crawl on my stomach, pushing with my knees, to the nightstand next to the door. When I finally reached the nightstand, I grabbed my furry blue socks and put them on slowly. I laughed, my face to the floor, when I tried to stand up. My legs were asleep. When I looked back up, Lana was gone. Something terribly cold and wet splashed onto my legs and I shouted. Lana had another cup of water and dumped it on my legs. My legs were awake now.

"Lana, I am going to kill you," I instantly shot up from the ground and tackled her to the ground and started tickling her, a weakness. She started to giggle and snort, something that only Lana's family and I have seen. I laughed as well and finally stopped and we both got up to the awaiting blueberry waffles downstairs.

"Good Morning, girls, eat up. You guys have to get your dresses or whatever you teens need these days for Homecoming. So, eat quickly." Lana's mom, Mrs. Riccio, was at the kitchen counter when we got downstairs. She stood up and began to go upstairs when she said, "Oh, and Nichole, your mother said you had a softball practice later today?" I nodded. "Well, if it's at five, you girls have about six hours before the practice."

"'Kay mom, thanks for letting us know. Mmm, where are the waffles? They smell sooo good," Lana said with a moan. Mrs.Riccio pointed to the left and both Lana and I ran for the stacked waffles and orange juice. There were seven waffles, so we cut one in two to be even. We sat down at the kitchen counter and we both dug in. I added a ton of sugar and syrup to my three and a half waffles, while Lana just kept hers plain. She's so simple, and I love her for that. Always knows what to wear, unlike me, who takes hours to decide. I smiled at her.

We soon finished and went back upstairs to a clean, feather-free room. Lana looked at me with a questioning look. I raised my hands, which meant, Uh, not me. From across the hall, Mrs.Riccio shouted, "Your Welcome! Next time you guys are cleaning up!" A laugh followed. We both shouted thank you and got ready to go to the mall, or wherever dress hunting would lead us.

"Lana, what are you going to wear?" I asked. I always wanted to contrast outfits.

"I think I'll just wear a flannel jacket. With a white shirt, dark blue jeans... and a gray beanie, I guess." She said, while looking through her closet. She pulled out her favorite jacket, which had a blue and white flannel design and a hood. Her gray beanie was a cable knit beanie with a folded hem. Her jeans were skinny and her white shirt was plain. I nodded with approval. Lana never really knew how well she was with pairing clothing. She was amazing at it.

"I'll wear a flannel, to match you. You always help me out, Lanes. Without you, I'd probably still be here still here deciding tomorrow," I smiled at her and she smiled back. She was putting on her contacts while I looked through her closet, and what clothes I had brought. We borrowed each others clothes often, we were the same size.

I took out a red and white plaid flannel from Lana's closet and my light blue ripped denim high waisted shorts. I looked at Lana who said "You rock it, girl." I laughed and got ready to dress. Lana was already dressed up and ready to go, some makeup and shoes on. I finished dressing up, and got my makeup done. Eyeliner and blush. I put my gold bracelets on and put my white hightop Converse on. I was a full opposite of Lana. White versus black shoes. Red and blue flannels. Mine was buttoned up while hers was over her white shirt. Dark and light jeans, too. My hair free, hers in a beanie. It really described us. We got in my car and drove to the mall two blocks away.
