CALLIE PRESTON

"I give up. I don't have anything to wear. I'll just cancel." I say with a smile and a thumbs up. Taylor rolls his eyes at me, flopping his back onto the bed and looking at the ceiling. Stella sighs standing up and walking over to where I was standing at my wardrobe.

"Don't be stupid, Cal. You're going on a date. That's exciting, you can't just cancel." Stella says, running her fingers along my clothes, pulling at a few to take a further look.

Before I left the boys house yesterday, Harry asked to take me out tonight and I agreed before my brain even processed his question. That means I'm trying to figure out what to wear and I'm having a meltdown.

Luckily, my mum has been back for a while and she's doing really well. You don't realise the impact someone has until they're gone, and she has the biggest impact on the girls; they haven't fought with each other or screamed in ages. It's pure bliss in this house.

At the moment.

That's why Taylor and Stella are round helping me pick an outfit because I'm incapable of doing it myself. I've gone through every t-shirt, every skirt, and almost every dress.

There is one dress I know I have that I would definitely wear but Stella and Taylor are here and would be extremely concerned if I stepped out in it. But Harry would love it.

"I personally think I'm the most fashionable here, so you two gremlins take a seat and let the king do the searching." Taylor says, standing up from the bed and shooing us to sit down. I perch on the edge of the bed, hoping he can find something for me quickly because Harry is picking me up in about 10 minutes and I'm nowhere near ready.

He skims through the clothes we've already discussed, pushing them all to one side as he carefully goes through the remaining dresses. He then stops, staring at a dress before pulling the hanger out of the wardrobe and holding it out in front of us.

"You cheeky fucking minx!" He says, pure shock and excitement. "Where did this come from and why did you not immediately put it on?"

He's found the dress.

It's a navy blue, sequin dress that has long sleeves and a very low cut top half. It's also very short.

I shake my head as I can feel my cheeks burn red. I really wanted to wear that dress, but I didn't know if it was too much for a first date. But then again, he's already seen me topless.

"Um yes. You are putting that on right now." Stella says, pushing my shoulders so I stand up.

"No I really can't. It's too much, I don't even know where were going. What if it's McDonalds?" I press, sitting back down and gripping the duvet so I can't be pushed again.

"Callie, I've seen his house, it's fucking huge. I really don't think he's going to drive you round in his Vauxhall Corsa for a Big Mac and chocolate milkshake." Stella says, crossing her arms and standing next to Taylor. The two of them tower above me, staring down at me as I sit there in pink pyjama shorts and a black t-shirt.

I sigh, I do really want to wear it and I know Harry would like it. And the only reason I was reluctant was because I thought Stella and Taylor were gunna go crazy, but they didn't. So I guess I have no excuse.

"Fine." I say, standing up and pulling the hanger out of Taylor's hands.

I pull off the clothes I'm wearing, throwing them onto the bed for when I get back home. I really don't care if they see me in my underwear, I've known them for long enough and they know me inside out. I slip the dress on, pulling the bottom of it so my arse was actually covered.
