Two Halves

The Dress

                               Amara's POV
Juliette swung open the curtain. I looked up from my phone to see her in the most beautiful pear green dress I have ever seen. The color made her eyes sparkle in the most magnificent way.

The way she looked was almost indescribable! I wanted to tell her how beautiful she looked. How much that dress that suited her. In every way, not just her eyes.

But all I could slip out was, "It's nearly perfect."

Nearly perfect?? It was perfect! What's wrong with me. I could feel the urge to slap my forehead but I resisted.

She got the dress and we left the store.

"Do you have anything in mind for shoes? There are a few places we can go to look!"

"No thank you! I think I'll just slap on my sneakers. "

"Excuse me?"

"What? Of course I will clean them first. I'm not crazy!"

I looked at her with a dead face. "Are you sure about that?"

"Umm, yes?"

"At least borrow a pair of my shoes. I can't let you for to the dance with those old Convers."

"There is nothing wrong with my Convers thank you very much!"

"Please! They can be flats. You can have the black ones you love!"

"Hmm.. Fine! But I'm taking my sneakers just in case."

"Deal!"

We got back to my house and Juliette set the bags on the table. We headed upstairs and flopped down on my bed.

"So what are you gonna wear to the dance?"

"Oh, I actually have something already picked out!"

Juliette gasped so loud and suddenly it made me jump a little!

"And you never told me!?"

"No I didn't,and I'm not going to show you yet!"

"How dare you!" She shoved me shoulder and crossed her arms.

I chuckled, "I'm sorry! But if it makes you feel any better, my mom hasn't even seen it."

She looked at me with a look of... Well... I didn't know how to describe it. Confused? No. Concerned?

"Are you ok?"

"Am I ok? The real question is,  are you ok? Who picks out their prom dress and doesn't even show their mom?"

"Umm, me?"

"That is unexceptionable! You have to be from a different planet I'm sure of it!"

"We already knew that! But don't you think your being a little dramatic?"

Juliette was definitely being dramatic but, I didn't mind! I love her when she's like this. I MEAN- I love to WATCH her when she's like this! I don't love her! Pshh...
