Finding Pieces Of Myself

Chapter Nine

Ariel just sat there completely shocked by what had just happened. I mean Ariel was no stranger to people throwing themselves at her but still, Thea had caught her completely off guard with her forward request.

"Alice is that you at chica," said Ariel as she walked through the door. "I'm in my closet" replied Alice as Ariel walked in and sat down across from her best friend as she started to change. "What's up," asked Alice. "Some co-workers invited me to go clubbing with them tonight and I'm not sure if I should go," said Ariel. "I think you should, it will help you build confidence in yourself," said Alice as she finished zipping up her boot

"Ari I know you. Clubbing has never been a problem for you before so what's going on" asked Alice as she sat down next to her best friend.

(Sigh) "today Crystal asked me to work with Thea on some outfits for one of our upcoming shoots. When we were done Thea asked if I would be going to the club with them and I said I didn't know and she said if I did that I should save her a dance" explained Ariel.

"So how does that make you feel" asked Alice. "It makes me feel uncomfortable. I know I shouldn't be but I am" replied Ariel. "Babe you're not wrong for feeling like this. You're not used to co-workers being forward" said Alice.

"Before if I danced or hooked up with someone at the club I didn't have to worry about running into them again but with Thea, I would have to see her at work all the time and it would make things awkward if I knew I screwed her the night before," said Ariel.

"If you see Thea tonight just tell her you don't want to do anything that will make you or her feel weird" replied Alice as she leapt off the bed to show Ariel her outfit. "You look amazing" whistled Ariel as she took in her sister's outfit. Alice was a the well known.ish graffiti artist Black Mamba. No one has seen what the Black Mamba looks like but they all know the Black Mamba has eyes like a snake. "Thanks, babe, now I'm off to mark my territory so the people of New York know that the Black Mamba has arrived and is ready for a little fun" winked Alice as she strutted out of her room and out the front door. Ariel laughed at how confident Alice was when it came to doing something she was passionate about. Ariel wished she was just as confident as her sister
