Summary: There is a party going on at Sam's house for Christmas, what could possibly happen there?

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Sam walks home and makes it in home in time to see her dad leaving. She waves good-bye to him and walks inside to find her mother in her room looking at the most hideous dress ever.

"Mom! What the hell is that!" Sam asks, disgusted by the dress…it's pink.

"This is your party dress, honey." Mrs. Manson says in a voice that was so bubbly that it could make an unsuspecting citizen vomit. Honestly it almost made Sam do just that each time she heard it.

"Mom. I am not, wearing that." Sam points at the pink dress in front of her.

The dress looked like a frilly, girly bottle of Pepto Bismol had thrown it up, to be perfectly honest. Sam hated it, but she knew that her mother was not going to let her not wear it. She also knew that there was a can of black die in her closet, a pair of scissors in her drawer and an amazing idea blooming in her head about how to fix it. She knew that she only had a couple of hours before Danny would get there, she didn't have to go down stairs until then-after all, and they weren't her guests down there. So she politely said thank you to her mother and got to work at her craft table the very second that she had left.

Sam cut here and snipped there for two hours. During that time she got rid of all of the lace, turned it black and got rid of the sleeves. She had tried to save them but they were hopeless so she just tightened the chest so that the dress would stay up on its own. She also shortened it to the point of a mini-skirt. This was weird for Sam but she had two different reasons to do so. For one she couldn't find a way to help it not look so frilly if it wasn't as short as she had made it. Another, she wanted Danny to see her legs. They were seventeen now and so she had desires as much as any other girl.

Another hour later and she had put on a pair of black high heels that she had bought for a Halloween costume to impress Danny. She had also curled her hair and put on some make-up. She was looking at herself in the mirror when she heard her name. She turned around to see some distant relative or something looking at her. "Your friend is waiting down stairs." She had said 'friend' very pointedly but Sam didn't bother making it clear that that was all that they were. She was still hoping that after tonight that would all change.

Short Chapter but the next one is about the party so it will be less boring, I hope. Review please.
