It's almost seven o'clock at night and the party started at eight. I just got out of the shower and I threw on the dress. I grabbed the glitter and a thin liner brush. I carefully drew glitter tears on my face from under my eyes down to my cheeks. I fixed my hair and put on some clear lip gloss.

I threw on a pair of white heels and put the wings on. I grabbed the perfume that smelled like lavender and sprayed it all over me. I looked at myself in the mirror and turned my body a couple of times.

Damn, I look fucking cute.

I walked out of my room and over to Zion's room. I knocked on the door and she yelled for me to come in. I walked in and saw she was fixing the hood of her costume. Her hair was curled loosely and her makeup had a beautiful blend of browns and greens.

"You look so amazing," Zion said.

"Thank you, but I think you look better," I said.

"I swear you're looking in a mirror sometimes."

"Says you. I could eat you for a snack right now."

"Yet, you're the one looking like a whole meal right now."

The both of us laughed and Zion threw on the combat boots she bought. She fixed herself up in the mirror and took a look at how she looked. I nodded in approval and walked up to her. She wrapped her arms around my shoulders from the side. We smiled and I hugged her.

"I have to get a picture of us!" Zion said excitedly. She ran off to get her phone and I stood in front of the mirror. The feeling started to creep in and I took in a deep breath.

Oh my god. You've been killing me for the last week. Give me a break.

Zion came back with her phone and we posed in front of the mirror. I kissed her cheek as she took the picture and we giggled. A couple of pictures were taken on each other's phones.

"Alright. We have about forty minutes before the party starts," Zion said. "Wanna go out to eat with Hawks?"

"Yeah. I'm down," I said.

"Awesome. Let me call him and I'll let him know that we're gonna go out."

Zion sent a text to Hawks. I sat on her bed and looked at my fingernails. I remember when she did my nails a while ago. The nail polish was chipped and faded. Zion came up to me and noticed I was looking at my nails.

"Want me to paint your nails again? We can do white to match your costume," Zion said.

I nodded and Zion walked over to her vanity. She grabbed the nail polish remover, cotton balls, and white nail polish. She sat in front of me and started cleaning the previous nail polish off. I grabbed my phone with my free hand and put my music on shuffle.

After about five minutes, Zion finished painting my nails and put the stuff back. I fanned my hands so I can let them dry faster.

"Are we going in my car or yours?" I asked.

"We can go in mine in case you decide to drink too much."

I rolled my eyes and blew on my nails. You know what? I'm not gonna drink tonight. I'm gonna continue this streak of being clean of everything.

The feeling started to get heavier on my chest and it felt like I was having seven different emotions at once. I closed my eyes to try and control my emotions, but I felt like screaming. I'm confused as to what's happening to me. My heart rate went up and my senses heightened.
