Going back to my house was the hard part. I have a thousand thoughts swirling around my head. Who is that boy? Why was he following us? Why was he staring at me? Is Rose hiding something from me?
"Hey, is everything okay?" Rose says while nudging my arm. I am annoyed that she is asking me that, of course I am not ok, I can't stop thinking of that boy. I mean, I can't blame her for asking me, I'm never this quiet.
"Yea, I'm fine." When I see my house only a few feet away I sprint to the front door. I can't wait to try on my ball gown!
"Maya wait for me!" I come to a halt when I reach the door. I unlock it, and then run to my room with Rose tagging along. I basically trip over my own feet while rushing to my closet. My mom picked up the dresses from Rose's house after we left for our hair appointment. I pull open my closet with all my force, and there she is, my beautiful ball gown. I felt myself smiling from ear to ear.
"Are you going to try it on or what!?"
"Yes, give me a second." I say half paying attention.
I slowly take the dress off of the hanger, making sure to be very delicate with it. I admire it one last time before I go to my bathroom to put it on. As I step into the bathroom, I feel the cold tile press against my feet. I shut the door behind me. I step into the dress as carefully as I could. The silk felt like butter against my skin. I have the dress almost perfectly around my waist, I just need Rose to zipper it. I walk out of the bathroom holding the dress to my skin making sure it doesn't fall down. I sit down at my vanity looking at my reflection. "Hey Rose?!" I call to her.
"Whats up?"
"Can you please help zip up my dress?"
"Yes of course!"
I hear her footsteps behind me. Rose zips it up. "Wow you look stunning! Someones getting a date tonight!"
"Rose, stop it! I don't even remember how to talk to boys!" That's a lie. I know very well how to, I just want her to drop the subject.
By the time we finish getting dressed it is already 7:15 Pm. The Masquerade starts in 45 minutes. "Girls! We have to go now if you don't want to be late!" My mom screams from down stairs.
"Coming!" Rose and I say at the same time. We head into the car and off we go.
