"Thank Gawd," Alicia sighed, "I thought your dad's lectures would never end."
Dylan giggled as she sipped her usual low fat smoothie from their schools café. The clear bottle read in big bold letters Sugar Free StrengthShe made sure that everything she bought was low fat. She had this conscience thought that she was fat. Although she was just a size 2.
"Well it paid off," Massie said waving her manicured hand casually in the air.
"Yeah, my dad would take longer than that to talk about how we should spend our time in Cali with the Briarwood boys," Kristen admitted, "He might even pull out a spare condom."
The girls cracked up. Claire laughed extra hard since her giggle turned into hysteria. Soon everyone was gripping their stomachs.
"Man, I can't wait till summer, It'll be awesome," Kacey exclaimed as she caught her breath.
"Ah-greed," The girls said back to her.
Kristen was especially happy. She's gained the trust of her parents and finally earned enough money for 5 decent shopping sprees. It might've taken her a long time for that, but she was grateful that the end result was spring break in California.
"Ah well, I gotta get home and fix the ol' baggage thing," Kacey said, "Claire you ready?"
Claire smiled and nodded. Ever since this winter meeting Kacey was one of the best things in her life. She loved the TPC but Kacey was a nice mix of fun and beauty. And she loved gummies, could it get any better?
"We'll be back in Tuesday," Kacey said, "Man, oh man; I hope Myles is there early."
The girls giggled as Kacey said Myles Bailey's name. He was her latest crush and everyone approved. With his shaggy brown and golden locks with his light blue eyes, he was nothing but gorgeous.
"Bye Claire and Kay," They called after their friends as they left the Block residence.
Massie made sure the two girls were finally out of sight to say her next words.
"Is she a GLU?" Massie smiled.
"Given," Alicia said.
"Given," Dylan said with an approving nod.
"And given," Kristen said.
"Total GLU," Massie said smiling.
And just like that, Kacey Bella Valentino was officially in the ties and twists of The Pretty Committee.

Claire's usual pajama attire was on again. Her blue silky pajama's brought out her eyes and her white tee was her average. She was so sick of being average. She wanted to be different.
"Hey, do you think your heels fit me?" Claire questioned.
"Probably, I hate calling them heels though," Kacey said getting up to get her gold heels, "They're so comfy."
Claire silently thanked god for her first pair of real designer heels to be comfy.
"I can't believe people just give you those for free," Claire said.
"How so?" Kacey raised an eye brow, "They practically threw Keds at you when you were out doing Dial L for Loser."
"I know, It's just Keds aren't exactly expensive," Claire said.
"Do you want to go for expensive?" Kacey said not getting the point.
Kacey was getting utterly confused. Tonight would have to be her first time ever seeing Claire wanting to be something she wasn't. Sure, Kacey could tell it was on her mind, but she had no idea it was in her mind to actually want to change her style.
"I don't know," Claire sighed, "I just want a change, that's all, nothing minor."
Claire lied. She knew she wanted to gain attention and become hot all of a sudden.
"If you're so sure about it," Kacey sighed, "You've came to the right person."
Claire's smile beamed. Her eyes twinkled and she felt as if someone actually paid attention to her needs. Not Massie's, and with that, she felt special.
Kacey threw down the heels and fished around of what's left of her walk in closet. She pulled out a couple of clothes that might fit Claire's thin and lanky body. She pulls out a pair of light wash skinny jeans from DKNY, a black tunic with blue lacings and her make up kit.
"The skinny jeans will fit you're skinny legs perfectly," Kacey said.
"Your skinny to you know," Claire chuckled.
"Yeah but I have extra curves," Kacey laughed.
Claire took a few minutes to get dressed and looked herself in the mirror. Kacey was full on right, she looked great. The blue in the black tunic made her eyes pop and hugged her torso perfectly. The skinny jeans didn't give that baggy sensation Claire's usual Gap jeans did.
"Now, all you need, a little mascara, gloss, and a bit of eye shadow," Kacey worked her magic as she talked.
Kacey moved her body so Claire looked herself in the 10 foot mirror. She looked pretty. Claire couldn't even believe her eyes, for once in her life, she looked ultra girly.
"The tunic makes you look tall and sophisticated Claire," Kacey gushed, "You look fab."
"I know," Claire sighed happily, "I hope Cam likes it."
Kacey nodded and headed off for the closet again. She pulled up a pair of back strappy Jimmy Choo's. Claire put them on with a bit of a struggle but got them on nonetheless. And once more, Claire faced herself in the mirror.
The ends of the jeans hugged her ankles perfectly in order for the heels to work their magic. Claire had to admit; now she looked perfect.
"I am so wearing this tomorrow," She smiled at herself in the mirror.
Her blonde bangs finally grew and now she had layers. Claire looked flawless for her age. But she loved the feeling of being pretty. However, it doesn't take clothes to make people pretty. But of course, Claire didn't acknowledge that.
"Look!" Kacey grabbed Claire's wrists and pulled her towards her pink clock, "It's 11:11, make a wish," Her voice came out a low whisper.
And with that, the two best friends closed their eyes tightly and held hands, hoping to God their wish would come true.
