"This isn't going to work. Sorry I tried" I tell Charlie as I step out of my closet " I don't own nice clothes"
"Liar" Charlie grins pushing me out of the way to get to the closet. He slides each individual piece of clothing down the rod with a screetch. "Wow... You were not kidding your cloths are ugly" "Hey!" I grab a pillow off of my bed and throw it at his head. He ducks and the pillow knocks at least 20 of the hangers off of the shelf. Darn.. that backfired. "Come on, lets go" Charlie yanks me off of the bed and drags me out of my room. " Where to?" I have a feeling we are going shopping and I am perfectly fine with that. I am about to make Charlies day 1000x worse. I chuckle and slip on my no longer white converse. I grab my keys off of the counter and start to head out of the house. Charlie rips the keys out of my hand and throws them back onto the counter. "What the heck was that for?" "I will be the designated driver today not you" "You never answered my question, where are we going?"
"Its a surprise."
Lame.
The car pulls up to an empty mall parking lot. Woo I never would have guessed. I hop out of the car and slam the door.
"Respect the car!" Charlie yells as I try to catch up with him.
"Yeah whatever"
I can feel the sun on my back and start to hurry because I burn like a true white girl. We enter into the mall and a blast of cool air hits my face.
"Where to?"
"It's a secret. Gosh woman"
Charlie grabs my hand and drags me over to H&M. He pulls the first dress he sees and hands it to me. I look at the dress and stare at Charlie with a blank face. Dude this is a size 12. "That's not your size?"
I punch his chest even though it probably hurt me more than him. I hang the dress back up and stomp over to the next rack. I pulled a cute Arctic Monkeys band tee off of the rack and show it to Charlie.
"What about this one?"
"Are you serious right now?"
"Duh"
"We are looking for something nice..that is not nice"
"What the crap are you talking about this is like Marc Jacobs nice" I inspect the tee shirt and it has holes covering the shirt and a cut out of a pulse line on it. Who am I kidding. This is not nice.
I lift a hanger off of the rack that has a black and white block dress that looks like it will come mid-thigh on me and show Charlie waiting for his scrutiny on my style. He gives me a blank stare and slaps the dress out of my hands. What did I expect this is impossible ,I give up. I pick it up off of the floor and throw it back onto the rack. I turn around and head to the exit.
"Sorry I will be serious now, how about this one" I turn around to see Charlie holding up a black dress that flares out at the bottom. Not bad. "Okay I'll try it on but if it doesn't work we're going home okay"
Charlie nods and hands me the dress. I step into the dressing room and hope to the almighty that it fits. I look at myself in the mirror and am not repulsed by my reflection.
The dress exaggerates what little curves I have and makes my short legs look long. I step out of the dressing room and call Charlie over. "That looks good" he says with a grin. " I have such good taste" I face palm myself and go to get changed back into my normal clothes.
We head back home and I get ready for the party. I remove all of my makeup and start from scratch. I do a dark smokey eye and nude lipstick. The H&M bag was laying in my bed with my new dress (paid for by Charlie) laying inside of it. I lay the dress out onto my bed and pull out all of my shoes to see what would look best.
I am stuck between wanting the black pumps or my nude wedges when I get a text from Charlie that he is on his way to pick me up. I choose my black pumps and go into the bathroom. I slip into the dress and straighten my hair.
I grab my nude purse and my heels and run down the stairs.
Clark stood at the bottom and stared at me with his mouth open.
"What never seen a human being before"
"I think I have only seen you wear a dress once in my entire life who convinced you to wear one tonight?"
"Charlie is making me go to a party with him and he insisted that I wore a dress but I made him pay." I explained.
"Alright I expect you to be home before one okay?"
"Okay. I hope to be home sooner than that."
"Make it two"
