Raura [ON HOLD]

Sandy was great.

She told us that she was sorry for what had happened but that we should still be thankful for not going through worse and having each other during the hardships.

Ness and I smiled and hugged her, both of us with tears in our eyes.

"Alright." Sandy said. "Enough of this sappy stuff. Let's go shop!"

"Woo!" I yelled and Ness gave me a 'behave' look.

We went to Topanga mall, the biggest mall in LA. Woah.

It was so beautiful. Stores at every corner. And a wonderful smell of food in the air.

We went to so many stores. We spent like five hours there.

We all tried clothes on in each store and they were so gorgeous! Ness and I were close to the same size so that was a bonus. Whatever she got I could wear and vice versa.

Ness bought lots of high heels and long boots.

She got jeans, shorts and dresses.

She also bought lots of shirts: mostly bright colors.

They were all so fucking cute! Omg!

As for me, I got lots of sneakers, combat boots, flip flops and heels.

I got lots of jackets. Leather jackets, Jean jacket, hoodies, knit sweaters etc.

I love sweaters and jackets.

I also got jeans, shorts, leggings and a few pairs of overalls.

I got lots of shirts too: flannels, band shirts and lots of cute shirts like Ness got but with a darker tone.

And I got dresses: long, short, sexy, cute, formal, casual. You name it.

We both got hats: Ness got us cowboy hats and boots. Idk why lol.

I got lots of beanies and this cute black round hat.

We got purses. They were the cute small ones with the long straps. Most of them were black, brown or white.

We got flower crowns. We got jewelry. I saw a ring with the letter 'R' on it and it reminded me of Ross, I don't know why, but I bought it.

The ring was cute. It had a black circle with a silver R in the middle.

We went to Victoria's Secret. That was so awkward for me, but Sandy and Ness were very mature about it.

I had to bite my lip to hold in a laugh when we checked out.

We had bought so many bras and panties. They were so cute btw. And Sandy insistently threw in some lingerie. She kept telling us we would need it. I couldn't hold in my laugh when she said that but I let her put it in our basket anyways.

We also bought perfume and lotions. Shampoo and conditioner. Sandy even bought us a blow dryer, straightener and curler.

We then went to Sephora and bought all kinds of make up. I got mostly nude colors and Ness got a couple colors. We also bought nail polish.

Towards the end of the trip, Sandy gave us each money (a lot of money) and told us that it was a free bee. We could get whatever we wanted.

Ness and I ran to Ikea.

We bought colorful beanbags, rugs and lamps for our rooms. The rooms were already furnished beautifully, but we wanted to add our own flare to them.

We also got a mini fridge. I mean who wouldn't?

You may ask, how could we carry all this stuff? Well Sandy, being the angel that she is, had a guy driving a small cargo car, wait for us outside each store and we'd load him up.

Ness wasted all her money there, but I purposely saved money and went into a music store.

I bought a record player. Some records: Queen, The Rolling Stones, Cage The Elephant, My Chemical Romance, The Beatles and many more.

I bought a beats pill. And headphones. I got a guitar and picks. I really want to learn how to play it.

I got CD's. And a CD player.

I got a Queen Poster. I love Queen so much.

I bought a disco ball. It just seemed right at the time.

I then walked to Barnes and Noble. I got a few books that consisted of Music and Art History, Music Lessons, and I got a new song book.

I went back to meet up with Sandy and Ness. I gave Sandy a huge hug. This was seriously unbelievable. I still couldn't believe how much she gave us.

"Thank you.. So much.." I whispered.

"Aww It's nothing, trust me. I'm rich." She teased.

"Let us pay for lunch?" Ness asked.

"Sure." Sandy smiled.

We went to The Cheesecake Factory and dug in. So fucking good. Sure Ness and I basically spent all the money we earned from working for the Lynch's but it was worth it. For Sandy. And this Spaghetti I got.

As we were leaving, Sandy stopped and smiled at us.

"What?" We asked.

"Spa time!" She yelled, pulling us into a spa.

Before I knew it, I was in a mud bath with cucumber on my eyes, and I wasn't complaining.

Ness was in a sauna with Sandy.

We got waxed... everywhere. I had never been more embarrassed in my life.

Sandy got waxed too. The woman knows how to live.

We got mani-pettis. And a spa treatment on out skin and hair.

We came out like queens. Oh my god I love Sandy.

We then got back to her house and her workers helped us order everything as we wanted it in the guest home.

Sandy called us out and gave us one more surprise. Well she gave Ness a surprise.

She got her a car. Like a legit car. Ness broke down crying.

I would've cried, but I was still in shock. It was so pretty. It was a light blue bug.

Ness was literally kissing Sandy's feet thanking her.

Sandy pulled her up and hugged her.

"This car is for both of you, but Ness is the registered owner. She's the oldest."

I was jumping up and down with Ness and we were screaming our head off.

After our celebration, Sandy called us in for her last surprise.

It was for me. She went down to the basement and asked us to follow her.

I went in the room and it was my turn to cry.

It was a recording studio. In my house.

"It has sound proof walls, so you don't bother your sister with your racket." She winked at us.

Ness said, "Thank you so much. I did not want to listen to that."

We hugged her really hard and cried some more.

"Thank you so much Sandy. You are our miracle. I..I love you." I shakily said. "Not for the gifts, but because you believe in us. Thank you, for being the mom we never had."

Sandy was bawling her eyes out, "Aww girls, I love you too. For still having hope after all you've been through."

After a few minutes she said, "Okay Laura go get ready. You need to be at the studio in an hour."

"Okay." I nodded and ran out.

I went in my room and was shocked. My room was so beautiful. I opened the closet and saw the clothes neat and organized.

I pulled out some black leggings, a white Queen crop top and a leather jacket. I got some black converse as well and some black laced undergarments.

I took a quick shower, put the clothes on and French braided my hair back.

I put on a little foundation and some mascara.

I got my purse and was going to put my new songbook in it when I saw something shiny in it. I pulled it out and it was an iPhone 6 plus.

Oh my god.

This woman never stops. I need to talk to her.

It had a note not the back.

This is your number: (805) 889-8898

All your contacts are in: my number, Calum's, David's and Ness'. Have fun.

:) Sandy.

I smiled and put it back in my purse when I saw another shiny thing.

Ironically, this made me happier than seeing the phone.

It was the ring from earlier.

The one with the 'R' on it.

I smiled at it and put it on.

I then ran out of the room. I couldn't wait to drive that bug.
