anything else, I’m going to find my jeans and T-shirt.” I turned on my heel and
left her standing there with her mouth open.
    “Wait, I think I have something else that’ll meet your
approval.” I heard her rummaging around in her room again before she came
barging into my space, quickly shoving something into my hands. It was a red
sparkly tank-top accompanied by a white skirt. Another short item, although the
skirt wasn’t as short as her other clothing.
    “Why haven’t I ever seen you wear this before?” I
asked as I pointed to the piece of clothing. “Is it new?”
    “No, it’s just too long on me.” Figures . “Will you at least try it on? See
how great you look?”
    “All right, I’ll try it on only to shut you up,” I
said, throwing her another smile over my shoulder.
    “I’ll be right back,” she retorted. “I think I have
the perfect shoes to go with it, should you grace me with your approval of
wearing it.”
    I checked the size before I did anything. Even
though we were different heights, we sometimes fit into the same size pants and
skirts. Not that I wore a lot of her clothes, for obvious reasons. The top was
bigger than she usually bought so I was wondering if she didn’t buy this for
me, secretly hoping to push me out of my more conservative wear. I wouldn’t put
it past her. “Why did you buy the wrong size shirt?” I asked as she came back
into my room.
    “I grabbed it by accident and didn’t feel like
taking it back to the store.” Uh-huh .
    After I’d quickly thrown on the clothes, I stood in front
of the mirror and smoothed everything out. Surprisingly, everything fit the way
I’d want it to. The skirt hit me mid-thigh, a length I could definitely work
with. The top, while tight to my chest, looked amazing.
    “What do you think?” I asked as I twirled around in front
of her.
    “Holy fuck, girl! You look so hot! You have to know
how good you look right now, Sara.” She was hopeful I would agree with her.
    “To be honest, I think I do look nice, but I don’t
know about this,” I said as I waved my hand back and forth over the top of the
shirt, pointing to the obvious. “Don’t you think it looks a little sleazy?”
    “Not at all. I think you look fantastic. Here’s the
shoes.” She handed me a pair of nude wedges. Thankfully we wore the same size.   I had to admit with the shoes, I really did
like the outfit. It accentuated all of my curves and made me look…sexy.
    “You were right. I look good, although I’m still
not a hundred percent sold on the shirt. But I’ll work with it. Thanks, Lex.”
    “I knew you would come over to my side one day.”
    “Just for tonight,” I chuckled.
    It was already 7:15, which meant I only had a
little over an hour to get ready. We had to allot at least twenty minutes to drive
to the club.
    I dried my long chestnut-colored hair as quickly as
possible, running a big curling iron through it to smooth it out and give me some
nice bouncy, loose curls. I wore minimal makeup, some sheer eyeshadow, a little
eyeliner and mascara, some blush and a clear lip gloss. I thought the outfit
was enough already; I didn’t want to add to the dramatics with an overdone face.
    I was officially done with fifteen minutes to spare,
so I sauntered into Alexa’s room to see how she was coming along. She was
almost ready as well, putting the finishing touches on her own makeup. She
really did look beautiful, even with the revealing clothing she chose. She had
shoulder-length, dark blonde hair with sun-kissed highlights. It was her
natural color, and almost everyone complimented her on it. Her pale blue eyes
and olive complexion were a great contrast to her tresses. Alexa really was
quite the looker, and I made sure to tell her as much.
    “You look really beautiful tonight, Lex. You’re
going to have to fight the men off for sure.”
    “You look fantastic, too. We’re going to have a
great time.” She laughed as she did a little dance.
