Bella P.O.V.
I just left work to rush home to my appartment and see what 'big surprise' Alice had waiting for me. That girl knew I hated surprises but, she was stubborn and my best friend. How could I refuse?
"Hello?" I unlocked the door and tossed my keys on the table, setting my purse down.
Nothing.
"Alice?"
I saw a note pinned to the refridgerator door. Ofcourse I said to myself.
"Your surprise is in the back of the closet - Alice" in her unique calligraphy.
I know I said I didn't like surprises but, my curiosity washed through me so, I rushed into the closet to see what my 'special surprise' was.
.
I gasped at the beauty before me. It was a gorgeous ball gown. A sweatheart neckline, a corset the laced in the back; it really accentuated my thin structure but still made my chest look good. What more could a single girl ask for? It was a floor gown that had silk cascading from the waist down and the same floral lace that was embroidered at the top of my corset was placed ever so delicately over the silk. The color was an astounding pale green, like an ivory.
This was unusual for Alice because she always thought that purple was my color but, oh well; it didn't change the fact she picked a grogeous dress.
As if that weren't enough, Alice out did herself again with a beautiful mask that was nothing but the same sheer ivory lace with two holes cut out for my eyes. The shape of the mask we cut perfect to frame my face and fit right above my cheek bones. the lace faded into a fish tail braid into ivory silk ribbon on each side that I was to use to tie around my head.
For fear of fainting, I quickly put the beautiful dress back with the mask in hopes of avoiding the price tag. Alice's parents were filthy rich. By filthy rich I mean, bathing in the tub full of money, drinking Champagne like it's water, and vacation homes in like, every country.
"5:00..." I sighed. Whoa, wait. 5?! Already?! Alice's masquerade was tonight at 8:00 and went through the night. I didn't even plan on going to her party but I guess I didn't have a choice anymore. Quickly analyzing a things to do list like, get a shower, shave, do my hair put on make up... I just began stripping down and stumbling to get in the shower.
Tripping over myself trying to free myself from my panties, bein the graceful person I am, I fell into the shower.
I didn't do anything with my brown curly locks but let the silk ribbons from my mask elegantly sweep the curls surrounding my face. My make up was more dramatic than usual with a dark shadow and black liner, it really made my deep brown eyes stand out.
After looking over myself in my beautiful dress that fit like a glove and my matching mask I slipped on some simple heels Alice picked out and hurried to the castle like structure her parents owned where the Masquerade was to be held.
My phone rang on the way. Alice, of course.
"Hey girl! So, you better be in that dress and on your way here, or else I'm coming to get you." She screamed through the phone over the classical music in the background.
"Yes, I can't believe I'm actually doing this, but that's what best friends are for, I guess."
"Well, Best friends are also good at getting each other hot dates, which I so, have for you!"
The excitement in her voice was contagious.
"Oh My God, Bella, I can't wait for him to meet you, I'm not supposed to give you a name, but he'll know you when he see's you and you'll definitley know him!"
"Alice, are you really going to put me through this, again? I'm just not elegant and charming as you are, he will probably find the wrong girl anyways."
I was flailing my hands around like an idiot as if she were right there in front me getting awkward glances from the guy next to me at the stoplight.
"Whatever you say darling, just give this a chance, I know it'll work. You'll see,"
"But, Ali-"
"Gotta go, love!" She cut me off, "Sexy mysterious guy just asked for a dance!"
Sexy mysterious guy? That's Alice for you, and as for me, there was no turning back. God, I hope this turns out OK. I slammed my hands on the steering wheel and nervously whipped into my parking place.
Maybe this could be my night, and I could have my own sexy mysterious guy. Did I really just say that too myself?
