She's always been one of the guys, and it's never bothered her...until she ran into the one guy from her past she hasn't wanted to shake free from.

...I stare up at the blazing stars, opening my mouth to answer the question that's been hanging...
So it's now 7:30 and I'm panicking, I've washed and restyled my hair at least five times, torn apart my closet, redone and washed my makeup off going on seven times now, and I only have 30 minutes.
I immediately facetime my fashion designer cousin.
"There's my Angioletto!" {translation: little angel}
"Leo! Thank god you answered, I am freaking the fuck out."
"Calm down mija. What's got your panties in a twist?" Yup, his mom's Hispanic and dad is Italian. Let's just say if he wasn't my cousin, I would call him Daddy...
Kidding, kidding, mostly.
"So I have a date tonight and-"
"It's about damn time!"
"Geez you're more excited than me. So as I was saying, I need help with my outfit, I've already done and undone both hair and makeup so many times."
"Really? Cause both look like a 9 year old playing dress-up."
"What!?" I immediately rush to the mirror just to hear him burst out laughing.
"It was a joke Angioletto. You look gorgeous except for the ratty old sweats and hoodie which obviously belong to Alec or one of your other boy toys."
"Friends." I correct him. "We're all only friends except for Alec and I."
"Ooo do I smell a romance a brewing?" He wiggles his eyebrows.
"A bro-ma'ammance maybe, he's like my big goofball brother/ best friend"
"What in the hell is a 'bro-ma'ammance?"
I shrug, "No clue."
"You are adorable mija."
"I know. So the real reason I called you: outfit ideas-stat."
"Your white-ish, tan over-sized sweater with the loose turtleneck, and black belt with gold accents right above your waist to show your figure off a little, and those black combat boots you wore to Adrianna's sweet 16 last month. Or a black mini dress, olive green bomber jacked and those white platform vans with the cork like soles."
"Damn, how do you know my closet so well."
"Angioletto, all your clothes that are actually somewhat fashionable, we went shopping for together."
"Damn, both those sound great. Which one would you prefer?"
"Def. the bomber and mini dress, says movie date, the other one is like casual dinner or drinks."
"Dress outfit it is."
