Ophelia's POV
"So is Niall meeting you here?" Tomi asked when she came into work the next night.
"Yes. And he said to wear a dress."
"A dress?"
"Yeah." I made a face. I wasn't much of a dress person. I was a jeans and t-shirt person, or a jeans and nice shirt person but not a dress person.
"Do you even own a dress?"
"Yes, surprisingly. I actually own a few."
"I don't think I've ever seen you in a dress."
"Well, I took a few pictures because I want your opinion on which one. I have them all in my car but obviously on a hanger is different than on a person. Sooo, take a look and tell me which one I should wear."
I handed her my phone after bringing up the pictures I had taken in the bathroom mirror earlier.
She stopped at one in the only super skintight dress I owned. "Oh shit, that dress is fucking hot! You should wear that one; hugs every curve on your body. If he can't keep his hands off you in that dress, then he's gay."
I laughed a little at her comment.
"But he didn't specify where we were going so I don't know if that's an appropriate dress. I mean, this one," I said pointing at a nicer one shoulder blue dress, "is a bit fancier. And so is this one," I said, pointing to a looser black dress with lots of pleating. "What if he's taking me some place fancy? That first dress is more of a 'I'm getting laid tonight' type of dress."
"Then definitely wear that one! You want to get laid tonight, right?"
"That would be nice, but I don't want to look like a slut in a super fancy restaurant."
"Good point. Let me see if Mully can get any information out of him. Or at least figure out what he's wearing to give you a better idea of what to wear."
"Can you do that more discreetly than you did yesterday?"
"Yes. I do now how to be discreet."
"Do you?" I said, rather cynically.
"Ha...ha. Leave it to me and Mully to help our two best friends figure their shit out. Even though we have our own shit."
"And what would that be? Which position to try tonight?"
"Ha...ha. No. Honestly, everything's great for me right now, so yeah, I'm more than happy to make everything great for you, too. Plus, the faster you two get this awkwardness over with, the better. I'm dying to have a double date! And I don't double date until all the damn butterflies are out of everyone's system."
