A/N: This is an O.C. Story,(obviously!) and this chapter is where Summer lays the grounds for a notorious plan.
I'd planned it to perfection. I asked Anna if she wanted to go to the mall with me after school, because I had this completely wonderful dress on lay-by, which was a complete lie – I can't believe she swallowed it. I mean, come on, why would I put a dress on lay-by? I can afford anything I want with those magic cards of mine! And everyone knows Versace has a lay-by, at least not one that I know of. She agreed and we rode in my car to the Newport Mall. I quickly pulled her into my favourite shop, Nemesis, and showed her the first outfit I saw.
"It's nice." She said, "But men's suits don't really look that hot on me." I looked down and blushed to my dark haired tips.
"Whoops, wrong outfit!" I squealed childishly. Okay, so I overplayed the perky dumbass front, but what else would you expect?! I've always made myself seem stupider than I am, so on the rare occasion I show my quick wit, everyone's amazed – it's the perfect plan.
"I meant this one!" I giggled, then smartened myself up, handing her a – thank god – proper, gorgeous dress. It was perfect for her – low-cut, baby pink but with a light metal chain around the waist. You wouldn't catch me dead in that sort of attire but Anna seemed elated.
"Oh my god!" she squealed happily, "Summer! I didn't know you knew my exact style! It's so wonderful!" I couldn't believe that, other than the Golden Girls thing, Anna and I had connected I nearly felt bad for what I was about to put her through. Emphasising the nearly.
"Are you gonna get it then?" I asked, "It would make you look so good I think!"
"Oh..." Anna's face crumpled sadly as she checked the price tag, "I can't afford this."
"But it's so nice! If I were you, I'd do anything to get that dress!"
"You and me both." Anna sighed, putting thee dress back on the rack.
"Yeah." I said, smiling sweetly, "Anything..."
