Everything Happens For a Reason (Bradley Simpson)

Finding the Perfect Dress

I woke up and laughed as I was sandwiched between my three friends

"bitches wake up!" I laugh bouncing on the bed. They groan and look at me with pissed off expressions. I laugh and get out the bed turning on the stereo blasting some music.
"We are leaving in an hour girls!" I yell before going into the restroom to get ready.
About 45 minutes later I came out ready wearing a pair of jeans and a baseball T shirt and some converse. I send a quick text to Brad telling him we were about to leave and I couldn't wait for tonight.
I walked downstairs to see Macy and Jessica ready, "where Cait?" I ask sitting down on the couch next to them. They point to the open bedroom door.
I laugh as I saw a frustrated Caitlin holding up two different pairs of jeans.. Almost identical.
"Caitlin we are going to the mall, not Vera Wang's fashion show! Come on hurry!" The girls laugh and she finally comes out.
"do I look okay?" She asks with her hands on her hips. I nod and pick up my purse. "let's go ladies" I say walking out to my car.
We drove to the mall and hit up almost every store. The girls have found dresses and shoes and I have still yet to find anything that looks good on me.

"I'm just not gonna go! I can't find anything" I exclaim as we sit down at a table in the food court.
"You'll find something Syd.. " Caitlin says sipping from her smoothie. Macy and Jessica nodding.
"Yeah we still have a few more stores! I promise we will find you something hot!" Jessica smirks.
I roll my eyes and stand up
"Okay then let's go! We have to be home in like an hour and a half" I say motioning for them to get up.
We walk around the other half of the mall until I see something that catches my eye. I see a gorgeous cocktail dress in the window of the store. It was black and lacey, two of my favorite things!
I grab the girls hand and pull them inside.
As soon as I see the dress I grab it and run to the dressing room to try it on. I slip it on and stare at myself in the mirror in awe. I have never actually looked at myself in the mirror and felt attractive, or confident. But this time was different.
I stepped out of the dressing room and all the girls looked up from their phones, their mouths dropped open. I bite my lip trying to hide my smile.
"Do you like it... Or is it too much?" I ask looking at myself up and down.
They all shake their heads.
"Syd you look hot" Caitlin says standing up coming to take a closer look.
"Brad will totally tap that!" Macy smirks, "agreed!" Jessica calls out, causing a ripple of laughter from us all.
I found my dress.. And I couldn't wait for Brad to see me in it tonight.
