my Missing Piece

Chapter 4

Amelia pov (continued)
While sitting awake on this plane that will only be landing in the next 13 hours I started to think about my life and the changes I wanted to make like changing my name start anew, or the fact that I didn’t want to go back to Africa any time soon. I thought about all the pros and cons about it and told
myself that I should think more about the moving, but I’m definitely changing my name to something that would be
picked up easily, like Leah everyone back home already calls me Lia, when new Yorker ask why they pronounce it different I can blame it on the accent or something. So Leah Amy
Samuelson it was. I was even tempted to change the way I dress, like dress girly but that’s pushing it, let’s stick to name
changing first. I eventually let sleep consume me.We I woke up, the captain told us we landed safely. We were so tired that we simply just got to the hotel and slept as Sam
had to be at work tomorrow.

“Elizabeth you are not going out tonight!” I was currently on the phone with my best friend Scarlett; she was being a complete pain in my ass.I put her on speaker and tossed my phone on my bed as I looked through my cupboard for something to wear to go out
even though Scarlett just told me not to.
“Liz, please… I’ve known you since kinder garden this is not who you are… if you doing this because you bored let me know because I don’t mind coming over… but you can’t go
out and get drunk tonight you got the audition for the new Annie movie tomorrow”
I considered her words and put my dresses back and grabbed my pjs instead.
“Okay Okay… I won’t go out, but that means you coming over again for the fourth night in a row and you bringing me cookie dough ice cream!”I put the phone off and went to take a shower as I knew Scarlett would be here in 20 minutes as usual.When I was done I put my hair in a messy bun and headed to
the kitchen to make some hot chocolate as it was quite a chilly night in New York.
Scarlett let herself in and walked towards the kitchen“Hey Liz, so they didn’t have cookie dough so I got you actual chocolate chip cookies and chocolate ice cream, do with
them as you please” she stated and smiled
Scarlett has had my back since kinder garden. We built the best sandcastles in the sandpit she kicked Jessica butt after she shoved me in middle school and she took me to prom
and most recently helping me get through my break up with a douche named Brandon. We’ve been dating for 4 years and
then he cheated on my with a girl named Brittany, and yes this was a solid year ago but it still hurts.I got pulled back to earth by Scarlett“A penny for your thoughts” I just looked at her and then embraced her and said thank you.She kissed my cheek and headed to the cupboard for the mini marshmallows she bought 2 days ago. We don’t say
much, because well there’s not really much to say it’s a cycle.She tells me I can’t go out, I go out anyways she finds me,
brings we back here to the hotel, we stay up, watch movie talk, eat... a basic girls night I black out, wake up the next morning with a headache she sands prepared with the
painkillers and water, she makes breakfast and then heads out and then we repeat. Well tonight we saved at least 3 hours because I didn’t go out.We spoke about her marvel movie and how she gets to meet the actual black widow in 2 weeks to talk about the fine
details of the character, like the emotions she was feeling at the time and stuff to make the movie realistic as possible.We talk about rose and then how I should move on and passed him because his had 6 girlfriends after me.
And then something she has been very consistent about...“Soooo, when are you going to let Robbie take you out on a proper date” she now had a smirk on her face“What do you mean proper date, and for your information
coffee dates is a date it’s in the name besides his my best friend that would be gross.” Scarlett faked gasped as if she was offended to which I quickly had to change my words.
“And you Scarlett are my bestest of best friends, my wifey…I’m with you ‘til the end of the line” we laughed at the last part
“you did not just quote Evans” we laughed a bit more talked a bit more and watched a movie until we both fell asleep.
