Baby I'm A Sinner novel Chapter 89

Noah eventually texts me half an hour later when I'm trying to pick out my outfits for Leeds festival, since we're leaving in three days.

Noah: I got into Kings!

Dani: :) that's so great!

Noah: (kissing emoji) (kissing emoji)

With a smile on my face, I begin pulling out clothes and picking out outfits for the three-day festival that is going to be sort of a last hurray before we all head off to Uni.

It's really sad to think about to be honest, because in less than two months from now, we are all going to go on different paths to pursue our dreams (even though we're probably still going to meet up and keep chatting on the WhatsApp group).

After I'm done packing I sit back down at the desk and go onto the Imperial College site to see what I'm about to get into.

It's scary yet exciting at the same time.

It's Tuesday morning when Noah arrives in front of my house with his Bentley. Jade, him, and I are going to the festival together, since we all divided each other into groups of three or two.

We're going to be staying in tents for three days, but I'm excited nonetheless. I packed a giant suitcase even though I know I won't be using even half the clothes in there, but you know, a girl has to be sure she has a lot of options.

I dress up with a pair of jean shorts (the typical girl attire to any summer festival to be honest), a white crop top with BOYS on it, white converse, and a jeans jacket, because I'm as basic as one could be.

Leeds is about an hour away, so I don't bother taking off my shoes and getting too comfortable, because I know Noah drives like a maniac and will probably get there in thirty minutes.

"How big are the tents?" I ask fifteen minutes in.

Noah turns down the volume to look at me. "They're for five people. Jake will be staying with you girls."

"Yas." I smile and turn the volume back up. I'm excited to see The 1975 and Arctic Monkeys, even though I saw the latter live.

The festival officially starts at ten am, but we only get there by eleven, and we have yet to set up our tents on the hill.

That's always the hardest part, because 90% of us know little to nothing about setting up a tent. Thank God for Liam though, who sweats like a pig while doing both of the tents.

Once everything is set we place our suitcases in and pick our spot, because we're three year olds, of course. I end up sleeping between Emma and Jake, like we always do when we have sleepovers.

"I'm going out for a smoke." Jake says and leaves us girls inside.

"Can you believe this is like...our last 'thing' together? Before we separate?" Jade sighs and lays down on her sleeping bag.

"Don't say that, we're going to see each other again." Eleanor pouts.

"Yeah, but we're going to be too busy with Uni and other stuff. Carly uh...she told me that's how her mother ended up with her group of friends."

Everyone is silent, just like we always are when someone mentions Carly.

"You know what? I say we all forget about the future for the next three days and have the most fun we've ever had in our entire lives." I start and smile encouragingly. "For Carly."

The girls smile and we all huddle together into one massive hug. "For Carly."
