"Yuck, to frumpy!" I grumbled.
Jessica laughed. "That dress makes you look like Cinderella gone wrong!"
I stock out my tongue. "Did you have to rub it in?" But it was true she was right. I threw the orange frumpy dress in the reject pile. Finding a dress for this dance was harder then I thought. We were in Fashion Train. The coolest place to shop, and still I was yet to find a dress. Jessica handed me a new pile of hopeful's. She had already found her dress. Black THIN straps low cut and it shimmered when the fabric was moved. I slid the red fabric over my body. Sensing that this was finally the one. It was a two piece. The red sleeveless blouse and the long red shirt went perfectly with my features. It clung to all the right places showing off my curves. The top was cropped showing off some of my tanned stomach. I looked in the mirror and smiled. I came out of the change room and put on a mini fashion show for Jessica doing a little dance.
She clapped. "Conner is gonna faint when he sees you"
I bowed "Thank you, thank you." I turned the price tag over in my hands. The second I read it my face paled. "$200!" I yelled.
Jessica sucked in her breath. "Wow" I scrambled to open my purse, frantically searching for an extra fifty bucks.
"Urrrr! This is not happening!" I started heading towards the dressing room.
" Wait." Jessica called "How over budget is it?"
I almost tore of the top. "$50 bucks!" Jessica opened her wallet and pulled out a fifty dollar bill then slid it under the change room door.
"I can't accept your money."
Jessica gestured towards her shoes. "Believe me. I oh you remember."
"Since when?" I shot back.
"Since I glued your sneakers into a chair leg in third grade forever ruining them."
I changed into my regular cloths picking up the fifty-dollar bill as I exited the change room. "I guess I can accept it, but those shoes were more then fifty bucks!"
Jessica covered her face with her hands. "Still on the guilt trip here?"
I handed my dress to the cashier. "I will never forget my beloved shoes. " I teased. After are purchasers were made we headed to 'I scream' for frozen yogurt. Through the window I cold see a group of kinds from our school, loners and happy go families. We placed our orders and made our way to the back of the restaurant.
"This is gonna be the best dance ever!" I exclaimed.
"Don't rub it in." Jessica griped.
"Sorry little miss grumpy, what's up?"
"I still don't have a date." The waiter placed our orders down in front of us and I started to dig in. Jessica' reaction was to stir her yogurt till it was a fine liquid.
I sighed. "Will will ask you and if he doesn't someone even better will."
Jessica glared at her yogurt. "There is no one better then Will." I spooned the tasty treat in my mouth.
"Sure." I said sarcastically. "And I married Enrique Iglesias." Jessica didn't answer she just continued giving her yogurt the evil eye. A bell dinged signaling that a customer had entered. I peered over the top of our booth. Conner was heading towards the counter (looking totally cute as usual) WITH Melissa!
