Four am

chapter nineteen

"We have 5 hours to get ready for this party and we still haven't decided on a costume. Come on, this shouldn't be that hard." I whine into Adri's bed. We've had forever to plan our costumes for this party but surprise surprise we waited for the last minute to actually figure out what we're going to be. But to my defence Adri and Leah are the ones who can not decide on something they both like. At this point I'll be willing to wear whatever.

"Leah I thought you had an entire pinterest board of ideas why is this so hard."

"I did have one, but then Adri decided that it was a good idea to shoot down all my ideas."

"Because they were tacky!" Adri exclaimed.

Leah's gaps, "they were not. You take that back."

"You're going to disagree with me really? Leah you had a fricken barbie doll idea in there for the love of god."

They start bickering back and forth so I take a pillow off of Adri's bed and throw it at them.

"Bitch what was that for?"

"It's because you're both insane, we need to figure this out soon. So we'll do the process of elimination or make a pro and con's list until we figure something out."

"Yeah okay."

"Sure."

I get non enthusiastic responses from both of them.

"Okay, now that we're on the same page we need to figure out a costume that we all have, as I doubt Halloween stores will have any costumes left."

After brainstorming for way too long and 2 coffees later. We think that Leah finally came up with something.

"Okay, hear me out. We should be the Winx Club."

Adri and I look at each other. I tilt my head thinking it through. "I feel like that could work." I wonder what Cole would say about our costumes. Would he even know what we are? I was thinking about what Adri said when we were all hanging out about telling Cole I liked him at the party. I was considering it, really considering it. But, I've been observing how he's been acting towards me and I couldn't pick up on any feelings towards me in a non platonic way.

"Yeah that's not too bad, and we could definitely pull it off while looking cute."

"Wait, who's going to be who?" I asked.

"I think Leah, you should be Bloom because your hair is kinda giving me red vibes lately. Zoe you should be Flora and I would be a brunette Stella."

"Fair enough." Leah nods.

"Just one problem, what do we wear?"

"I have a pink silk dress that's sparkly. I bought it forever ago, and it would work for Flora." Adri starts walking towards her closet and starts rummaging around it. "It should be somewhere here."

"We would have to stop at my house, but I have a yellow V-neck halter top. If I remember well, I feel like I also have a blue mini skirt that I could wear."

We make a plan to go home and get all the clothes we can find that would work out for our costumes and bring them back to Adri's place in half an hour.

"I think our costumes are perfect." Adri looks down at her bed full of clothes.

I ended up wearing the sparkly pink dress that Adri found for me except it might be a bit too short and the V-neck is a little deep but Leah said it makes me look smokin 'hot. Leah is wearing a blue tube top and a blue mini skirt, Adri dresses similarly but in a Leah's yellow halter top and a skirt as well.
