Chapter 36: D-Day
This is the time of year that I dread. It's marked on my calendar as "D-Day." I started thinking of ways to get out of it, as I do every year. What day is this?
The day we shop for Homecoming dresses.
I'm trembling even as I merely think about it…
"Ooh! I love shopping for dresses!" Kendall laughed as we walked into the local mall on Saturday morning. It was a girls' day, we were shopping for dresses then sleeping over at Montana's house and do girl things. Montana was just as cheerful and they skipped ahead. Behind them were Stella and me, walking like dead people.
"I hate dress shopping…" Stella mumbled as she stumbled next to me.
"Come on Stella! Cheer up!" Montana said, smiling and skipping to Stella, who merely gave her a death glare.
"I am in no way going to be cheery."
"Keisha?" Montana asked turning to me, in a way looking for someone who would listen to her.
"Montana, on this day, I will be anything but cheery."
"FIRST STORE!"
"And the torture begins…"
"How do you like this one?" Kendall asked, walking out of the changing room wearing a lime green dress.
"I like the color but I like the purple dress better." Montana said, picking up a purple dress that had been discarded on a hook outside the dressing room. "Ooh, Ryan gonna love you in this!" Montana blushed as she took the dress. "Oh, are we turning into Keisha?"
"You know what?" I asked as I sat outside the dressing room with my iPod. Montana walked over to me and yanked the earbuds out of my ears. "Hey! There are few cardinal rules with me. Number one is never pull out my earbuds when Brandan Urie is serenading my eardrums!"
"Pick a dress out! Even Stella tried on a few!" Kendall said, shoving a dress at me. It was royal blue, floor length and sort of ruffled at the top; with spaghetti straps and it was very velvet-y though I didn't have a clue what it was made of.
"Now GO!" Montana pushed me into a dressing room door, but the problem was that it was locked. I fell to the floor and the door opened to reveal a lady who overall looked very mad at me.
"I'm sorry…is this your door? I'm so…ooh, that's a very big scuff…um…I'm going over here now…" I stood up and ran into the nearest open dressing room and locked the door.
Remember next time Keisha…don't wear Converse high-tops I thought as I untied the knots and fought to get the shoe off of my foot. But I lost my balance and slammed into one of the walls. As I lay there with my shoe half off, someone pounded on the wall."Sorry Stell!"
"Oh, is that Keisha? Okay then." I could hear Stella yell as I stood up and pulled my shoe off, exhaling deeply.
"Well that was harder than I wanted it to be." I took the other shoe off and slipped into the dress. It fit snugly, and showed off my features, my height, my dirty blonde hair, and my blue-grey eyes. It showed the curves that I usually hide with hoodies and band shirts.
"Hey Montana…I think I like this one."
"Are you just saying that so you don't have to try on any more dresses? Because if you are…then I'll…ignore you." Aww, Montana can't think of a threat.
"As threatening as that sounds, no. I actually like it."
"Then let Montana approve. Come out here." I opened the door, walked out for a split second then walked back in.
"NO! LONGER!" Kendall yelled, yanking the door open. "Out!"
"Yes ma'am." I chuckled as I walked out. Kendall squealed and ran up to me.
"Oh this fits you so nicely! Look Montana!"
"I know!" They flooded around me and they oohd and ahhd over it.
"Danny's gonna love you in this!" Kendall teased, playfully shoving me.
"Ken! I'm taking Colton, not Danny." I chuckled, trying to hide my face which turned such a shade of red that I looked like a tomato.
"So? Danny's in our group! He'll see you and fall in love with you and you'll ride away on your white stallion!" Montana chuckled walking out of the dressing room with a red dress.
"Actually..." I laughed as I turned around in a circle, per Montana's silent request; she was motioning with her hand to turn around.
"So, are you set on that dress?" Montana asked as I walked inside the changing room.
"Pretty much!"
"Only Keisha would find a good dress the first try. Come on Stella!"
"NOO! I REFUSE!"
After the girls were done in the store, I took my dress to the front and who was working the front desk but one of our own. "Hey guys…anyone know Hawkes' hours?" Kristy asked as we hid behind a wall.
"Oh no! I forgot he was working today!" Kendall giggled.
"But seeing his bloody face totally eliminates the point of Girls' Day Out!" Stella complained.
"Well, we have to talk to him; he's the only one working the register." Montana said, peeking around the corner.
"No!"
"Welcome to Carson's…hey guys...Homecoming dress shopping already?" Hawkes asked with a huge smile on his face.
"Yeah, you never work on Saturdays though." I said as Hawkes scanned my dress.
"So, are you ready for Homecoming?" He asked me who was giggling and looking away. "Aw come on, look at me with those pretty eyes." I looked up and Chikezie smiled. "There we go…"
"I'm so excited for Homecoming."
"And I am going to be sick with all this fluffiness."
"All right Stella, I'm stopping."
