I stood in front of the mirror for what felt like forever. Staring at my reflection staring back at me. I took in every detail of my face and watched the pureness of my skin breathe. It is in times like these where you see yourself for who you really are, because the girl in the mirror is a different person to the one standing outside looking in. One is the person who lives everyday feeling guilty and angry and the other person is the one telling her to feel that way, letting her believe its true. One of them is alive and one is dead. And I am still trying to figure out which is which.

'Ally, hurry up we wanna go!!' That was my flat mate Millie. She and I met when I first arrived in London a few months ago. She was kind enough to let me move into her flat since her last flatmate had moved to America. The flat isn't big, but how big does it need to be for just 2 girls? There are 2 rooms one for each of us that lie opposite each other. Then down the hall to the left is the kitchen, to the right a lounge and each of us have our own bathroom. The flat is in a bit of a rundown area of London and there are quite a few thugs around, but I don't mind because I enjoy travelling on the tube in the morning to get to work.

'Ally seriously hurry your ass up or when we get there all the alcohol will be gone!!' Millie screamed down the hall. I snapped out of my daze and ran and grabbed my bag off my bed and fled down the hall, to be greeted by Millie with a very annoyed look upon her face.

'Sorry about that, I just couldn't find the right shoes.' I slung my bag over my shoulder and stood opposite her and smiled. She looked down and my feet and frowned.

'When have you ever worn any shoes besides your converse or vans?' She questioned me. I couldn't help but notice how funny she looked when she frowned. The creases in between her eyes were very noticeable. I looked down at my feet too, which were dressed in my blue vans.

'Yeah you're right, I just felt like seeing if anything else would look nice with my outfit.' I had decided to wear my high waisted shorts with a white half shirt which had 'classy' written across it in black and then finishing it up were my blue vans.

'Well I think you look hot and that you will attract a lot of males tonight.' She said with a wink and then turned around and headed out the door. I followed behind her running my fingers through my hair which I had decided to wear loose.

Once we got into the taxi I turn to Millie who was touching up on her makeup. 'Millie, how many people are going to be at this party?' I asked and then bit my lip.

'Oh only a few people, don't worry it will be under control.' She said with a reassuring nod. Although it didn't really reassure me, because even though I just met Millie, I know she is the type of girl who will party until she passes out and that she would never go to any party where there are only a few people.

I turned to face the window and watched as all the buildings flew past us. I watched all the people living their own individual lives, wondering if any of them felt like me.
