"Does this dress make my butt look big?" Gwen asked jokingly.
Lily rolled her eyes and Nick and Joe bust up laughing. Gwen smiled and Lily poked her head out of the door of her dressing room stall. Joe's face lit up at the sight of her.
"Do you have a dress?" he asked.
Lily replied, "Well, yeah, but I don't know if I like this one… and it is our senior prom so I don't want it to be the wrong one…"
"Just show us the dress," finished Nick.
The door Lily had been holding to herself swung open freely. Lily tenderly stepped in front of the entrance to the dressing room so Nick and Joe could see her. Gwen walked over and stroked the fabric lightly, whistling softly.
The dress was dark blue and flowing. It was strapless and long, sequins and gems sewn all over it to highlight parts of Lily's figure. The blue faded as the fabric began to reach the floor, becoming a soft powder blue by the time it brushed her bare feet.
Lily looked up at her friend's faces, waiting to see Joe's reaction. He was, after all, Lily's date to prom. She smiled as she saw the astonished look spread across his face.
"So?" she prodded, trying to get Nick or Joe out of their state of speechlessness.
"It's amazing!" Nick commented quietly.
Joe's eyes scanned Lily's dress from her feet all the way up until he looked her in the eyes. She smiled and he matched her expression, but with a bit more shock.
"What is it?" Lily asked, trying to decipher Joe's look.
"It's… it's…" he couldn't seem to find the words.
"What?" Lily whispered.
Joe's full smile broke out across his face, lighting up his eyes. He finished, "It's perfect."
Lily's smile grew and she turned to Gwen. Gwen nodded, telling Lily, "This is the one."
Lily then noticed Gwen's dress. It had the classic ball gown shape, tight to her torso then puffy skirt starting at her hips. It was purple with white and black accents and a hint of a shimmer in the main fabric.
"I love your dress too," Lily said. "Are you going to get it?"
Gwen was shopping for prom dresses with Lily. Even though Gwen was a sophomore, her grade was allowed to be at the prom. Actually, all grades were accepted, but usually the freshman didn't go.
Gwen hadn't gone as a freshman because she hadn't been asked. But this year when she hooked up with Nick at Christmas break, they decided that they wanted to go to prom together.
"Yeah," Nick added, "Do you like it?"
"I love it," Gwen responded, "I think I'm getting it."
Lily smiled. She said, "Good. I'm going to get this one then."
"You mean I'm going to get that dress?" asked Joe.
"What?" Lily asked, shock spreading across her face.
"I'm going to buy your dress for you. Now come on… don't you two want to get dresses for that beach bash also?" Joe asked.
Gwen and Lily clapped excitedly, then rushed back into their dressing room stalls to change back into their regular clothing. Joe bought Lily and Gwen's dresses for them, then had the woman put them on hold until they had finished shopping.
As they walked down the main hallway of the mall, Nick's growling stomach was audible. He started to complain about being hungry, so they all made a detour to the food court.
After getting their McDonald's food and finding a table, they quickly cleaned their plates. Lily didn't eat much, saying it was because McDonald's didn't fit on her new diet plan. She instead pulled out a protein bar and started munching away happily.
"Diet?" Joe asked unbelievingly.
"Yeah," Lily explained, "I want to look my best this summer, I turn eighteen and I want to look great in all the pictures of my last summer before college."
"Okay," Joe replied hesitantly, "But you don't really need to diet."
Lily shrugged and took another bite of her granola bar.
When they were done eating they hit a few more stores. The girls found dresses and swimsuits for the beach bash, and Joe and Nick both scored some awesome vintage t-shirts. They got the prom dresses from the store where the lady had reserved them, then went outside to Joe's car.
"Can I drive?" asked Nick excitedly. He had recently received his driver's license and was always eager to practice.
"There's more than one person you're not related to," Lily explained, climbing into the passenger's seat.
"Yeah," agreed Joe, sliding into the driver's seat. "And there's no way I'm letting you drive my car. Kevin's… maybe. But not mine."
Joe drove them home, dropping the girls off at their houses with the dresses. Once Lily left, Nick hopped into the front seat next to Joe.
"That dress Gwen bought was amazing," Nick said, trying to start a conversation.
Joe nodded, keeping his eyes on the road. He had turned on the radio, but the music was like white noise. Nick tried again.
He commented, "Lily's dress was pretty cool too."
Joe hinted a smile, but it disappeared quickly. Nick was getting frustrated, Joe wasn't usually this quiet.
"What are you thinking about?" Nick asked. "You're never this quiet."
"That whole 'diet' thing from lunch today," Joe explained. "It's just not like Lily."
Nick shrugged. He responded, "She's a girl. She just wants to look perfect for her senior prom and her eighteenth birthday."
Joe nodded, but the thought still bothered him. He pulled into the long driveway, putting the car in park and shutting it off. Nick grabbed their bag of new shirts and they walked inside the large house.
As they walked through the door, their seven-year-old brother Frankie ran into the kitchen shouting news of their arrival. Nick and Joe kicked off their shoes and Nick bolted upstairs to his room.
Joe walked into the living room and plopped down on the couch. He held the remote in his hand but didn't turn on the television. His mother and Frankie appeared at the doorway.
"Joseph, Frankie and I are going to buy some groceries for dinner. Your father is at work so that just leaves Nick, Kevin, and yourself," his mom said.
Joe nodded and shortly after heard the front door shut as his mom and Frankie left. Kevin ambled into the room and sat next to Joe on the black leather couch.
Kevin eyed the remote and asked, "Are you going to turn something on?"
Joe tossed the remote between his hands, then threw it to Kevin who snatched it out of midair. Kevin's eyes searched Joe's partially concealed face, and instead of turning on the television he sat up a bit taller.
"What's bothering you?" Kevin asked.
Joe leaned back, sinking into the cushion and resting his head on the wall. He responded, "What do you mean?"
Kevin laughed. "Usually I have to fight you for the remote, and today you just give it to me?"
Joe's eyes grew narrow. He explained, "Lily's started on a diet."
"Why does that bother you?" Kevin wondered aloud.
"That's just not her. She looks perfect anyway…" Joe's voice trailed off.
"Maybe you should go on a diet with her!" Kevin responded. He sat forward quickly and playfully backhanded Joe in the stomach.
Joe made an 'ooff' sound as Kevin's hand connected with his center. Joe's feet came off the ground momentarily and his torso snapped forward. Kevin might've been teasing but he could pack quite a punch.
They both began to laugh and Joe slugged Kevin on his exposed shoulder.
"Hey!" Kevin complained.
Joe stood up, still chuckling. He shook his head and walked out of the living room. As he rounded the corner and started up the stairs, he heard Kevin turn on the television to MTV. Kevin was quite addicted to music videos, even though they didn't play many of them on MTV anymore.
Joe took the steps two at a time and reached the second floor of their New Jersey home quickly. He passed Nick's room and heard him talking. Joe paused momentarily and caught the name of who Nick was talking to. Gwen. Joe might've guessed. The two of them were always together, and when they weren't physically together they were talking on the phone.
Lily and Joe didn't talk that much, but they weren't as new as a couple as Nick and Gwen. It had only been since Christmas break for his younger brother… whereas Joe had hooked up with Lily the summer before. Joe smiled to himself, remembering that it was actually on Lily's birthday that he had asked her out. She had admitted to Joe later on that she had always like him. Joe told her that it was the same way in his case.
Now almost one year later they were still together, and quite happy actually. They really understood each other and got along flawlessly. Well, they had their arguments every once and a while but it was mostly smooth sailing.
Joe entered his and Kevin's room, dropping down onto his bed. He laced his fingers together, placed his hands behind his head, and lay back until he felt the soft bedspread beneath his hands. Joe thought for a while, wondering what he should get for Lily for her birthday. He still had a while, her eighteenth birthday wasn't until July 15th, but Lily always seemed to have her presents for Joe a month or two early.
It wasn't until Nick came in and had to wake Joe up that Joe realized he had fallen asleep. He had been especially tired all day, but he just put on a smile as he followed Nick downstairs for dinner.
