Lizzie barely noticed the blonde hair that suddenly filled her face before it did, neither did she see Dem's happy eyes or her wide smile. But she almost fell over as her friend hugged her, and she returned the hug as she answered I know we really are big kids now, the older half of the school!!! She was excited to see her friend again, it had been a very lonely time without having Dem, Shay and Cha around. Almost all of last year, and then the summer.. There weren't words for the happiness she felt. I haven't seen her around, but I'm sure she's here somewhere. Her eyes followed the table for a second, before she looked back at her friend. I can't believe how long your hair's gotten Dem! And you are so tall! She giggled and took a step closer. I always knew I was sorta short, but now it's so obvious! She stuck out her tongue teasingly and smiled.
