Since i cant update the old drabbles i feel the urge to make new ones!!!

I walk into the room ready to fight the world if i have too, i know now that i cant rely on anyone else to help me. I am alone. Ernest is gone, but i realise he had to go, he didn't exactly have much choice. It was the right thing to do, but where did that leave me? I try to be unselfish, but it doesn't always work. I try not to want everything to revolve around me, and i really don't. Not anymore.

But is it so much to ask that they care? I mean they should, they are my friends. My closest friends, and my earliest friends. the most loyal, just the best friends I could have. Till now.

Maybe i have done something wrong? But i know i havent, yet i cant help but wonder if i have.

I feel so alone, yet i'm in a room full of people.

Yes, now it's just me and myself. I wont let them come back, but what if they dont want to come back? I know really, even though i dont want to admit it that i would be friends with them again, even after everything. But what if they dont try? i cant apologise, i havent done anything wrong. Really i havent.

Yet why am i trying to convince myself that im not in the wrong?

I put my hands to my face, to blot away the tears. I am so confused, and everythings turning into a mushy mess in my head. I have to get out of here. i run out of the room, before anyone notices my tears.

i run blindly, through the familiar, old corridors. Plas Howell is my only friend left. This is not a comforting thought.

I have to get away, away form everything. i can feel myself getting into that state where i will be crying hyterically soon, where the tears will refuse to stop. I need to be alone with my self pity.

I push on my door, hoping to be alone but for the foget-me-nots sprinkles about my walls.

They are there, sitting side by side on my bed. As if they belonged. As the tears stream down my cheeks, i am at my weakest. Two against one, i wait for the hostility, the bitterness and the anger.

It doesn't come.

Hugs Gwensi tightly

Thanks for this, brie. I could always feel Gwensi's pain in Goes to It. It must have been such a wrench for her to lose her brother when he goes away and to see her beloved home taken over by a school.

Of course seeing them there in front of me brings more tears, just what i don't want. i don't want them to see how much i am hurting.

I look at them anxiously, why are they here?

Daisy breaks the silence of course. its not in her to stay quiet for long.

" Oh Gwensi! I've missed you so much"

"We both have" chimes in Beth, her serious eyes are fixed on my face.

"Can't we just forget this silly fight and be friends again?"

Daisy sounds so anxious, she must really care. I am touched.

Im so tempted just to accept, but they are wrong, aren't they? They should apologise to me.

I can feel my sense of pride rising inside me battling against giving in, even at the price of my happiness.

I take a deep breath and quench it. Friendships not about being right, its about feeling right, and making other people feel right. And i know that i wont feel right till i have my friends back by my side. And they wont feel right either without me. It doesn't matter who's right and who's wrong thats not important anymore.

Daisy is looking at me anxiously, i can see her trying to keep quiet, but she's so impatient and her bubbly personality doesn't help either.

Before she explodes, as even Beth is looking less placid and more anxious now, i nod.

Daisy squeals. loudly. Instinctively i giggle, i just cant hold it in. Beths eyes light up and she laughs too. daisy is looking at us bemused.

Suddenly i cant stop myself. I hate hugs, but just now was the right time for them.

We all hug, and i realise three way hugging is not as easy as it sounds.

I open my mouth to speak, i cant bear the thought that i might be that miserable again.

" Promise me we wont ever fight again, about anything. Nothing"

Daisy chimes in as usual, " not money or friends or anything."

"Or boys" says beth her eyes wide.

"Beth!" we yell at her, "Don't be all soppy, we're not idiots."

"I no" says beth patiently, "but some people do, and when we are older, and...." here she paused "like boys..."

"urghhhh beth, as if!"

i giggle it is great to have them back.

"c'mon you two! stop clowning about this is serious, we've got to be like... like..." i try to think of a suitable example " like the three muskateers!"

Beths eyes shine, she loves jules verne books.

"All for one, and one for all!" she exclaims.

"Everyone put their hand in" says daisy authoritatively.

And with our hands on top of each other, we all chant together.

"All for one, and one for all. all for one and one for all, all for one and one for all."

I smile complacently. We will never change, we will always be together for each other.

Gwensi scrunched up the sheet of paper in her hand. She squashed it into a ball and lobbed it neatly into the bin. Soppy mess, she thought to herself. Would she ever learn to write?

She glowered round the empty formroom. the pout on her face making her look younger than her seventeen years.

The door opened softly and Gwensi swung round guiltily. She glared at the figure at the door.

"I don't want to talk to you Beth Chester" she said coldly.

"But Gwensi, please just let me explain..." Beth trailed away as she was met with a stony silence.

Gwensi stood up abruptly.

"You betrayed me, and our friendship. If i cant trust you, you are not my friend."

The words were simple but they cut Beth up inside, and the anguish she felt was plain to see.

"Gwensi, you don't understand."

"No I understand perfectly Beth. I'm not as important to you as he is and you made that decision, and you can't go back on it."

Beth shook her head.

"But, but is there nothing i can do?"

"No"

and Gwensi stalked past her out of the room.

The hatred Beth felt for Hamish Maclure at this moment was so strong she felt herself shaking. He had taken over her life, and then left her with her life lying shattered in pieces around her.

Beth knew that only two people knew about where she was going to go, and neither of them would be looking for her.

She crept up the back stairs that no one used and turned the knob of the door everyone else thought was broken, three times.

She stumbled into the little attic room hoping to find solace in the bare walls. But when she looked into the little room she felt repelled, as past memories swelled up and reminded her of the things she had done.

Things she was so ashamed of she could hardly even admit them to herself. If she had thought this quiet, little room would bring her comfort she was wrong. Everything abot this room reminded her so strongly of him.

Even he had abandoned her, and in her fury she hit the wall hard with her fist, the pain she caused herself brought her a twisted pleasure, as she realised that no one would ever like or trust her again.

She had thrown everything away and for what? She had lost the two best friends she could ever hope for, and it was no more than she deserved.

She closed the door, pulling it firmly behind her. If she could only get through this last year she could leave it all behind forever.

Somehow this thought of escaping was not as comforting as she had hoped.

Everyone hates change, she realised.

oh poo! i do hate the rain... although it is a useful procastinating excuse....

Daisy venables threw her pen across the room.

Life had been so much simpler before, well before she had seem them.

She shuddered as she tried to forget the day it had all started.

"Beth? have you seen Gwensi anywhere? The abbess is looking for her"

"what? oh no i havent. what on earth does this abbess want?"

"Oh don't worry silly. I rather think its to do with the chaletian, but theres no point in gwensi getting into trouble for not turning up..."

"She might be outside." said Beth

Daisy nodded, Gwensi often liked to walk through the grounds to clear her head.

"I'll go have a look-see"

Daisy had strolled outside, and walked round the back of the house. Not many people came round here, but Gwensi always liked the quiet, so she often came here.

Daisy caught sight of a strip of flame up ahead in the trees. She was about to call out to Gwensi, when she realised she wasn't alone.

Daisy decided to get up closer before she called out. It wouldn't do for junior or middle to hear one of the prefects yelling.

As she got closer, daisy realised to her surprise that the person Gwensi was with was a young man.

She was about to turn away, when she let out a gasp. The man had just kissed Gwensi. He had his arms around her. he kissed her again.

Daisy stared open-mouthed before she turned and crept back to the house.

She had wandered back up to the prefects room, dazed.

"Did you find her?" asked Beth

"oh what? no... no i didnt" murmured Daisy

"Daisy whats wrong?"

"what? oh nothing. i'm fine"
