Like ritual, the girls are sat in the diner as they always do after leaving the club.

The owner gives them free dessert now since they've been coming so often.

"He was absolutely amazing. I came twice and he was so attentive afterwards." Nia tells Erin as she sips from her strawberry milkshake.

Erin chuckles, "I told you. So, are you gonna sign the contract?" Nia nods her head, "I'd be a dumbass if I didn't."

"Look at you, finally growing up." Erin sniffles, wiping away a fake tear.

Nia kisses her teeth, "Girl I've been grown, don't do me."

"I'm just fucking with you. I'm just happy to see you branching out like you've always said you would."

Nia nods, "I'm happy too. I've been missing out big time." they fall into a comfortable silence as they finish their food.

A group of drunk men enter the diner, and that's the girl's cue to go home.

They split the bill and wait for their Uber to arrive.

"Are you working tomorrow?" Erin aks, organizing her wallet a little. Nia shakes her head, "No, Nicole has something to do so the shop's closed."

"Wanna go shopping with me? I wanna give my new subs gifts for being so good to me." Erin giggles to herself.

"Sure, I have to stock up on underwear." Nia rolls her eyes playfully.

Erin lets out a laugh, "He ripped your panties?" The younger nods her head, "He didn't even ask first, he just ripped them off. At least he apologized afterwards."

They stand from the table after Erin gets a notification indicating that the Uber is outside.

Walking towards the door, they hear whistles and catcalls from the drunk men. They try their best to ignore it as they leave.

"Ugh, men." Erin grimaces, opening the backseat of the car after making sure it's the right one.

"Tell me about it." Nia remarks, settling in the backseat next to her.

Nia walks out of the dressing room, adjusting the straps on the red dress she's trying on, "Does this look okay?"

Erin looks over at her from her stance in front of a clothing rack and gasps, "Yes, that looks so good on you! You should definitely wear that tonight."

"You think? Isn't it too fancy?" Nia twists and turns in the mirror to see herself from each angle, "Don't I look like I'm going to an expensive dinner or something?"

"Not at all. It makes you look sexy." she approaches the younger, "Do they have it in black?"

Nia nods her head, "Yeah I think so." "Then I'll be right back." Erin skips away towards the racks.

Nia chuckles as she waits for her to come back. Once she does, she's instructed to wait for Erin to change into the dress.

After a couple minutes, Erin steps out in the matching dress, "You should wear the dress tonight too."

"I was thinking the same thing. It'll look cute with those new boots I just bought." she twirls in the mirror next to Nia.

"Do you think Ho- I mean J will like it?" Nia asks, mentally facepalming for almost revealing his name.

Erin doesn't catch on though, "He'd be crazy not to. You look hot, end of discussion." she goes over to a bench and picks up five more dresses, "Now try these on so you can hurry up and help me pick out gifts."
