Author's note: I saw the new Degrassi. All I can say is "What no Eli?"
I was still thinking about what I would look good in, when Allie and Jenna burst through my front door. Allie looked like she was going to explode. "Clare! I was doing some last minute shopping, and I saw something that is just so you!" Jenna was nodding like a bobble head next to her. I was still a little mad at her, but when I found out that she was pregnant, I decided that it would be better to forgive her. K.C had been an ass to both of us, so I guess we could help each other get over him if we really wanted to. Not that we wanted to. Mostly, Allie kept us together, and we wanted to be civil in her presence. Allie was just trying her best. "Clare! You are going to love this dress!" "Allie, I don't mean to be a downer, but why would you spend all that money on me?" She looked at me and faked a look of pain. "Clare! It hurts me when you think that I, of all people, would pass up a chance to buy such an adorable ensemble? Really, it's not a big deal. Just consider it your birthday, and Christmas, just a little early." She then pulled put a beautiful light blue dress. It was simple, but still amazing. "Oh, Allie, This is perfect! But its strapless and I've never worn anything like this." "Clare, with that dress and a white boa, you will quite literally knock the pants off of Eli." All I could do was blush. Every time I thought of Eli, my stomach did a backflip, and my heart skipped a beat.
After about two hours we were all ready. Allie looked amazing in hot pink, and Jenna also looked great. She was afraid she looked too pregnant, but we assured her that we looked fine. Drew and Adam rang my doorbell about a half hour later. Adam was gaping at me when I answered the door. "Oh God Adam. Do I really look that different?" He was still slightly aghast. "No! It's just that, well, you never really, well wear clothes like that." I felt my cheeks get hot as I looked down at my outfit. I was really… different for me. The dress was tight from the top to the waist and got loose from there until the bottom. It was a pretty boring dress, but that in combination with a white feather boa, false eyelashes, and heavy makeup, I looked like a regular Vanna White. Allie and Jenna followed Drew and Adam outside. "See you soon Clare," they called. Now all I had to do was wait for Eli.
I was only waiting for a few minutes when I got a text from Eli.
I'm on my way. See you soon
~Eli
Oh Eli, get here soon. I was quite literally trying to make time move with my slightly underdeveloped telekinesis when Eli opened my front door and walked into my living room. I stood up and walked over to Eli. He looked fabulous in a solid black tuxedo with a red silk shirt underneath. "Clare, I have to say, that honestly, you look stunning." I blushed again and replied, "Well I must be pretty average compared to you, Mr. Swank." Now it was his turn to blush. "Well Miss Edwards, I do believe that we have a dance to attend." I followed him out to his car, and got ready for the night of my life.
