Chapter Eleven, MY TV IS FIXED. Little brothers are good, sometimes, right?
All the dress options are on my page! Check out them out!
Alli and I get to the store, and get the Friday rush hour, well rush. We make our way to the dress store, and Alli gets excited when we step in. She nearly takes out a young woman walking with a toddler waddling along her side, gripping her hand tightly.
"Sorry about her, Vegas dance at school Sunday night." I apologize, sincerely.
"I was a teenager two years ago, I understand." she smiles at me sweetly. I smile and look at the small boy, he bounces slightly and giggles. I laugh. I walk quickly to find Alli. I find her looking at a little white dress.
"Can you see yourself in this, I know I can." she hold the dress up to me, I look at the dress a little closer. it's a white mesh-like fabric over a solid white fabric. The outer part had black polka dots thick at the bottom but getting smaller as they rise up towards a thick, silky black tie.
"I dunno, I was looking for something, I don't know less, me." I say shaking my head, and scrunching my face up a tiny bit.
"Oh," she smiles a toothy grin and continues looking. She finds an attractive red dress with a halter top, but I can still see myself in it, I shake my head no. I picture myself in all of these dresses, but I waned something more Eli's style. Alli picks out a hot pink dress. I make a face.
"For me silly," she holds it up, it appears to be meant to be skintight, its low cut, and has thin ribbon like straps.
"I think its perfect," I say sure of myself. I continue to fan through dozens of dresses. I see a purple ones I take a liking to. it's a silky medium purple, with a gathering of rhinestones on the chest of it. I pull it off the rack and hold it up to me. It looks nice but I think I can find better. Alli comes out of a dressing room, clan in the pink dress.
"Think Drew will like this one?" she asks, seductively. I laugh at her expense before nodding vigorously. She smiles, waltzing back for her street clothes.
I see a black dress, with a deep "V" cut and two half inch straps. There is a black ribbon tie around the waist line, tying a long bow in the front, just a few inches below the cut. Another two to three inches below the tie it begins a new material over top of the solid black, the material is similar to that on the white dress. It starts to bunch in a ring around, with equal increments of space in between. The material under stops before the overlay. I bite my lip, pleased with this dress. I take it off the rack and find just one more that I can try on along with the black one.
After Alli changes she comes up to me carrying a nice blue dress with a beaded belt, with matching straps. I sigh and take it from her, I head into a small dressing room. I slip out of my day clothes and try the blue one on, its pretty, but not what I am looking for. I step out and hear Alli squeal.
"I love it," she says squirming in her chair.
"I don't think its what I want," I look at myself in a narrow mirror. After locking the door once more, I strip out of it sliding into the black dress. I stare at myself in the mirror and hardly recognize myself in the short black dress, it is perfect, especially for a three month. I go back to show Alli, she jumps out of her chair, throwing herself at me.
"Yes!" she screams, and we get several stares, she pulls me into a tight hug. I can't help but smile. "Now go take it off so we can find us some perfect shoes!" she screeches in my ear, prior to letting me go. I come back out carrying the dress in my left arm as we take off to the shoe section. As Alli looks through regular heels, I look through heels that are a little different, red. I find a pair of ankle boots that are a soft red material. I try them on and they fit nicely, and are comfortable. There are a few ruffle-like things around the ankle part. I show Alli.
"Edgy, I love it,' she says pulling the pair she chose out of the box. They are pearly white and somewhat platform, perfect for her.
"Good choice," we walk to the accessory department and I go off on my own once again, Alli looks around, but already has jewelry. I pick out a red rose pendant on a thin silver chain, a few thin, red, and metal bangles, and a headband with a black and red plaid bow on it.
After getting the Alli-approval we go to the check out line. There is a medium length line, we only end up waiting fifteen minutes or so before Alli puts her items on the counter, she cashes out the dress and the shoes and pays. I step up next.
"Good choice with the black dress and the red accents, perfect together," the lady working the cash register says to me while scanning barcodes. "Your total is $179.56," she says smiling at me warmly. I hand her two hundred and she gives me my change. Alli and I head outside and I call Eli.
"Hey there, gorgeous," he answers after two rings, I smile and blush lightly.
"Hi, could you pick Alli and I up now? I have something to show you, so you know what to wear Sunday," I speak confidently into the phone.
"On my way," he shuts his car door. I am shocked that he was already in there. He hangs up and Alli looks at me.
"He's going to love it on you," she says, overly excited. "What do you plan on showing him?" she questions.
"The necklace and the bracelet, that's all," I say. She wriggles in her spot, sitting on the curb, vaguely reminding me of a dog wagging it's tail. I cant resist laughing. She starts laughing too, unknowingly at her own expense. I hear loud music, but it stops when I look up. Eli pulls to the curb near us and unlocks the door, he hops out walking to the back of the hearse. We meet him there handing him out dresses.
"No peeking," I say giggling. He fake pouts. I hand him my bag with my shoes but hold onto the accessory bag.
"Fine, but what's that," he point to the small bag in my hand. I pull out the necklace and the bangles. "Red," her smiles, wincing lightly when he tugs at his split lip. Alli walks to the passenger door, leaving us alone.
"Still hurts," I touch his lip with my thumb, pulling down to see the slit along the inside, also.
"A little, nothing a kiss can't fix," he smirks and I let his lip free, I kiss the cut carefully, applying almost no pressure.
So a little shorter than the last, mostly just a way to get to Eli point of view, for the dance. So yeah, dance next chapter? Also I still need pool answers!
