"What is going on for today?" I question

"We are sightseeing and going out tonight," Taylor said drinking her coffee

"What do you mean going out tonight?"

"She means that Louis asked us girls out...and Taylor called Ricky and asked him to come," Zoe said

"Ohhh," I said with a eyebrow raise

"Yeah," Zoe said sitting down eating her eggs and bacon

"C'mon it will be fun...maybe Claire can meet someone" Taylor suggests

"Nooo," I said getting up walking to my room with my coffee

"We are here for a month...You never know" Taylor said

"All I know is that this trip was supposed to just us girls, not boys and girls," I said turning around walking back to them

"WHO IS THE ONE THAT TOLD THE GUYS THAT WE WILL SEE THEM AROUND?!" Taylor shouts

".....I...I-I...Bye" I ran into my room and shut the door

"Thought so" Taylor shouts back

"Shut up" I bark getting ready for the day

I wore a baggy grey shirt with jeans that had holes and some high black boots. I did my makeup and walked out to see what the girls wear doing. I saw Zoe dressed in a white dress that went below her knees with a plain gold necklace and some white vans. Taylor had a black shirt with black pants bring out her hair color and red vans. 

"You girls look amazing," I said walking up to them

"Haha, Look at you. Simple but, amazing" Zoe said

"Thank you, Ready?" I ask

"YES," Taylor said running out

"She is texting Ricky," Zoe said walking out with me

"Ohhh," I said locking up

We walked around London. We saw the London Eye, Big Ben, Tower of London, and then we took a tram over to St.James's Park to go on the ferries wheel. When we got there, Zoe paid the tram guy and we walked over. The girls got a pretzel. I wasn't feeling one. I walked over with them when I got a call.

"Give me a sec," I told the girls

Caller ID: EX

"Hello?" I question

"Claire"

"Yes?" 

"How is the trip?"

"Why do you care?"

"C'mon now. Don't play like that"

"What do you want?"

"I'm just thanking you for coming to my wedding"

"That was weird and wrong of me"

"I am glad you came. Macy and I thank you"

"Who invites there  "ex" to a wedding, I have to go"

"Wait, Please wait"

"What?"

"I am regretting leaving you"He whispers 

"Excuse me, We were fine till you said you wanted more then you left and then the next week your getting married"

"I was stupid"

"No"

"What?"He laughs in disbelieve 

"You were smart. I look back at us and it was just a big crazy game"

"Really all 2 years" 

"Yes...Bye"

"Ww-" I hung up

I walked over to the girls.

"What was that?" Zoe asked

"Tim," I said looking up

"What does he want?" They ask at the same time with a chuckled realizing they asked the same thing

"Me," I said

"I ain't gonna ask farther," Taylor said

"I am hungry can we go eat?" Zoe ask

"I don't mind," I said

"Same, Let's go," Taylor said walking out of line

We got on another tram because the girls liked it so much and went to Little Franks. 

"I am so hungry, I can eat a horse" Zoe laugh

"All that walking did me in" 

"Hey, so where are we going?" Zoe looks over at Taylor 

"Well, I was hoping for a club but, I guess that there is a ball," Taylor said drinking her water

"What?" I asked trying not to choke on my tea

"Yeah...I told Ricky that we would come" She said

"We have clothes, but nothing that is 'ball' worthy" I whisper-yell

"SHOPPING" Zoe said

"Yay," I said sarcastically

"C'mon Claire is will be fun," Zoe said grabbing my hand and squeezing it

"After this" Taylor said

"When does it start?" I ask

"8 and it is 5 now," Taylor said 

"EAT FAST," Zoe said

We ordered our food, we all got a salad because of having to fit into dresses. We paid our way and got a cab. We went to the nearest shop to our place because Zoe wanted to make sure she had time to get ready. We decide to go to the nearest place by us so we could get ready quicker. We spent an hour looking at the dress.

"I give up," Taylor said

"You're the one that got us into this," I said

"Thinking it would be easy but look at us," She said with her hands in her face

"Guys over here" Zoe yells

"Zoe?!?" I question concerned

"Are you o-" Taylor stopped when she saw what Zoe had

"I found our dresses," She said with a big smile

Zoe held up 3 beautiful dresses. They had the same design but were different colors Blue, Gray, and a Rose-gold color. 

"These are amazing," I said

"I love the blue one" Taylor replied

"Here you go," Zoe said 

"Which one do you want?" I ask Zoe

"I really want the Rose gold one," She said

"I want the Grey one then" I smile

We paid and all went home. We did our makeup and got dressed. Taylor curled her hair and pin a side of her hair. Zoe did a messy braid, which was amazing. I put mine in a bun...a cute one. 

"We look amazing," Taylor said when her phone chimed "I need to get this"

"Thank you, Go ahead," I told her

"I can't wait to see Louis..." Zoe announced 

"Ricky sent us a ride...It's HERE" Taylor said grabbing her bag

"Let's go," Zoe said grabbing my hand

"Can't wait" I reply 

Thank you for reading Chapter 3. I hope you enjoy it!

I feel so bad for Zoe...Poor girl
