Ethereal

New Friends

You leave work exhausted. You call Cecilia and ask her if she wants to go out with you and the girls tonight, and she excitedly accepts. Luckily, you were let go from work early today so you have time to take a nap. After you sleep for about two hours you wake up and get ready for your night with the ladies. Cecilia is going to be at your house at 7:30 and it's now 7:00.

You choose a deep red cocktail dress. It has an open back with a v-neck that shows off your cleavage. It's tight, and it it ends at your knees. You put one a pair of red open toed heels and some gold hoops, and for makeup you wear mascara, some eyeshadow, and a red lipstick. You look really good. Once you tidy up your hair you hear a knock at the door. You run as fast as you can to answer it, which isn't very fast considering the length of your heels. You open it and see Cecilia.

"Shit y/n, that dress looks really good on you." She says as she walks inside.

"Thanks you look really good too." You say. She's wearing a dark purple dress with spaghetti straps and black heels. You give her a hug and walk into your kitchen.

"Do you want anything before we go?" You ask.

"No thanks I'm saving room for shots." She says and you laugh. "Speaking of which, are these ladies fun? I've never heard of FBI agents who like to party."

"Trust me, they know how to have fun." You say. "I just hope that it doesn't go too far. It would be embarrassing for Spencer to have to pick us up naked off the street or something."

"You guys love each other, you'll be fine." She says back. She's now standing next to you as you pour a glass of water before you go. "But if you do get completely wasted, know that I will be taking a million videos."

You raise your eyebrows and put your glass in the sink. "Ok let's go. They're probably there already." You say.

"It's only 7:35." Says Cecilia as she checks her phone.

"Well they like to party and they're FBI agents, which means they're early to everything. Especially a night at the club." You say.

"I cannot wait to meet them." Says Cecilia. You two leave your apartment building and walk to your car. You get in the drivers seat and immediately turn on the radio. Cecilia surfs through the stations and lands on Post Malone's "Sunflower". She turns up the volume and you two sing along with the words while you drive.

"Oooh, some things you just can't refuse, she wanna ride me like a cruise, and I'm not trynna looose!" You two yell. You sing the chorus and do a little dance with your eyes on the road. It puts you in a good mood before you even get to the club. When it ends you turn down the volume.

"Get my phone and connect it to the bluetooth." You tell Cecilia. She does just that and looks at you.

"What do you want me to play?" She asks. She has Spotify ready on the screen.

"Spencer sent me this song on Wednesday and told me it reminded him of me. It's really good, it's called Good Days by SZA." You say.

"That's so cute. I've never heard it, I'll play it." She says. You hear her fingers tapping on the screen until the majestic intro music starts to play. She turns up the volume and you listen. You hum a little bit and sway. You can't see Cecilia so you don't know if she likes it or not yet. Your question is answered when she turns the volume up louder.

"This is really good!" She says. You look over and see her swaying too. "I can see why it reminded Spencer of you."

"Really? What do you mean?" You ask.

"It's gentle but strong, and it sounds beautiful." She says. You smile at the words.

"Aw, thanks." You say. "Tell me more about how amazing I am."
