Chelly was running late, as always. Nat said that she would meet Chelly at her place and help her pick something out to wear. According to Nat, Chelly didn't dress to flatter, she dressed to hide. Apparently she thought it time that Chelly stopped hiding.
Chelly pulled into her driveway fifteen minutes late and saw that Nat had let herself in. She probably already has like twenty outfits for me to try on for her. I can't believe that I actually agreed to this, hell, I can't believe that I am actually excited for this. I just feel like something awesome is going to happen tonight, maybe this guy will be the one. Whatever, let's not get ahead of myself. "Well, I might as well get this runway show on the road. Chelly, welcome to hell." Chelly laughed at herself as she thought about what Nat was going to put her through. Ever since she told Nat about her past, Nat has put her heart and soul into getting Chelly excited about the date. She thought it would be good for Chelly to have something to concentrate on.
"You're late!! Girl, get up here and start trying on some of these outfits, you only have three more hours to get ready!" Chelly looked out her cart window and up to her bed room window on the second floor of her house, there was Nat leaning out as far as she could waving her arms like an idiot. It's times like this that I am glad I don't have neighbors.
Two and a half hours, fifteen outfits, and four hair styles later, the girls agreed on Chelly's first outfit. "Now, let's do your makeup and then we can go."
"Where are we meeting them at?"
"The restaurant at the hotel that they are staying at, I figured it would be easier on them."
Chelly looked at herself in the mirror. I don't look half bad tonight.
The girls walked into the hotel lobby with confidence, "Ah, Nat?" "Chelly, you are so not chickening out on me now." Chelly just glared at her friend while shaking her head, "I would at least like to know the names of these guys." Nat looked at Chelly and grinned, she was surprised at how eager Chelly acted about the date, "Their names are Mark and G—Oh look there they are!" Nat excitedly pointed at two huge, handsome, brothers. Chelly followed her friends gaze. As her eyes settled on the sight before her, her stomach suddenly developed butterflies the size of eagles, her eyes shined with adoration, and her lips broke into the most beautiful smile that caught the attention of every guy in the restaurant. Chelly grabbed her friends arm and quickly recovered her self and put a nervous look on her face. "Nat, I don't think I should go on a date with either of those men, I mean, I realize that they are handsome and I can totally see why you'd be into them, but I don't feel comfortable dating either one. I'm sorry." "Chelly that is totally BULLSHIT! To bad, you are going to do this for me, just this once." Nat whispered angrily in Chelly's ear. "But you don't understand; I can't date those guys." Chelly was fighting a grin. Nat just gave her a look and pulled her towards the beautiful male specimens waiting for them. The guys weren't aware of the girls yet and so they have no idea of the girl's quiet squabble. Nat walked up to the table and caught her date's attention, "Hi Mark, this is my best friend Chelly. Chelly, this is Mark." Mark looked at the Nat's friend a little confused, she looks very familiar, she can't be. "Hey Nat, Chelly. This is my little brother Glen." "Nat, I am serious-" "Chelly!" Nat was getting a little embarrassed at her friends open rudeness. "Hi Mark, hi Glen. Nat I can't date either of these guys, that would be gross," "Chelly!" Mark and Glen both broke out into huge grins as they finally recognized Chelly. "Nat, hear me out! Remember that story I told you the other night?" At Nat's nod Chelly continued, "These two idiots are my brothers." Nat looked at Mark, then at Glen, and then finally at Chelly. "Oh," was the only response the speechless Nat could come up with.
