Gemma and Alice have been friends from the moment they were born. They may be best friends, but they are totally different people. Alice is polite, clean, and organized. Gemma is sometimes a troublemaker, being where she shouldn't, and doing wrong things.

When Alice's dad gets a great job opportunity in Scotland, Gemma and Alice try running away together.

They get caught by Biscuits, and Alice does move away. Gemma gets to see Alice, but what do you know? Gemma causes trouble and gets sent home.

Alice is always talking about Flora. Flora's room, Flora's clothes, Flora's ballet skills. Gemma is sick and tired of it.

She becomes friends with Biscuits, before her enemy, and they end up being great friends.

Gemma realizes that Alice will always be there no matter what, and she can make other friends, but still have the one that stands out.
