The Crane Estate
Friday, August 31
7:46 PM
The five members of iCandy were huddled in Cosette's purple shag rug, discussing outfits for the first day of school.
"Ehmagawd!" Rosalie shouted.
"The Alexander McQueen blue goddess dress?" Eliana grabbed the silver material off the floor.
"Toe-dally!" Cosette giggled as Eliana tried to shimmy into the dress.
"What about my It boyfriend cut jeans?" Jenna turned to Cosette.
"Wait for fall." Romera grabbed a pair of French mules.
Suddenly the doorknob turned and in walked Cosette's mom, Massie holding a half filled glass of seltzer and a sleeping bag. Behind her was their housekeeper, Belva, holding four other matching sleeping bags.
Eliana dunked her hand into the bowl of chocolate covered pretzels as Romera laid the sleeping bags out on the floor in a star shape.
"Thanks Mom." Cosette kissed Massie on the cheek.
They all fell onto their sleeping bags the moment that Massie left he room.
Rosalie grabbed her palm pilot and the others followed.
"Okay, Alexander McQueen, Chloe, Gucci, DKNY, and Chanel. Romera? Do you want Marc Jacobs?" She asked her friend.
"Do you have to ask?" Romera cackled and pulled a piece of hair off her Marc Jacobs camisole.
They spent the next hour putting together a list of their outfits.
Back-2-School Outfits
Jenna: BCBG empire top, It straight-leg jeans, and her own purple All Star High-Tops, (only okay for this week only because they were in US Weekly)
Eliana: Alexander McQueen silver goddess dress with her silver DKNY ankle boots.
Romera: Gucci blazer over an ivory tank, with Marc by Marc Jacob skinny jeans and Chanel wedge scandals.
Rosalie: Gray L.A.M.B. skirt, C&C layered tanks, and gray stilettos.
Cosette: Gold Alexander Wang mini dress over tight skinny jeans and Steve Madden pumps.
Cosette sighed and threw her palm pilot on her duvet. She fell back onto her sleeping bag and everyone giggled. Suddenly her computer dinged and they all rushed over to her new iMac.
JOBRO100: Hey!
They all cackle-screamed so loud that Massie had to come check on them
"We're fine." He rolled her eyes, as if saying, EhMaGawd-Leave-Us-Alone.
When she shut the door all the girls jumped up and ran toward the computer
"What should I say!" Cosette flailed her arms.
"Hurry!" Romera slammed her arms on the computer.
COCOCHANEL: Hey! What's up?
Cosette slapped herself for sounding so boring.
JOBRO100: Chillin' with my guys.
COCOCHANEL: Hanging with my girls.
JOBRO100: Is Jenna there?
Cosette waved Jenna over to the screen and encouraged her to log on to AIM.
J-DAWG17: Wazzup?
LOGIBEAR: With Jo, Sean, Matt, N' Austin. How About U?
J-DAWG17: iCandy.
LOGIBEAR: Kewl.
A sudden ping caused Cosette to turn the computer screen away from Jenna.
JOBRO100: Got To Go! Pizza. Yum...
Cosette sighed and handed the mouse to Jenna.
LOGIBEAR: Food, see you l8er!
Rosalie ran into the bathroom and grabbed a gray Essie bottle of nail polish to compliment her clothing for school.
"Let's go to sleep it's 12:00!" Romera screeched.
They all scrambled into their sleeping bags, giggling and tripping over scattered clothing. They fell asleep to the steady breathing of each other and the scent of lavender.
