CHAPTER 14 - FANCY DRESS PARTY

Flashback (2010):

College life for the girls was definitely the best years of their lives. Out of some twisted fate Alyssa, Vic, Ella and Rachel all got accepted into NYU, and Mika and Dennise got into Julliard. Thanks to Pablita Louisse Valdez Alyssa's college fund was untouchable during her divorce to Ruel. He tried to take it away but Clara and her lawyers were able to stop him. Because of this and with the help of Mika's college fund that her parents had saved over the years the two girls managed to get their own apartment that was close enough to both schools. It was a small two-bedroom apartment so they invited Vic and Dennise to stay with them as well. Ella and Rachel decided to stick with dorm rooms for the first year but grew tired of that quickly and they managed to find a cheap two-bedroom apartment that wasn't too far from the other four girls. During the last two years of high school and throughout college the six girls became extremely close and considered each other as family.

It was getting towards the end of the year when the girls were invited to a fancy dress party at one of their other friend's house. It was one of those huge house parties, they had been to a few over the year but this one was supposed to be even bigger and better than the rest. Mika thought the idea of it being fancy dress was excellent...Alyssa not so much. She hated having to get dressed up in some stupid tacky costume, why couldn't they just wear normal clothes? It wasn't your average fancy dress party either, it had a theme: Famous Couples in History. Vic was not impressed either.

All six girls were over at Alyssa and Mika's apartment catching up over some beer and snacks. Once again no one knew how Alyssa and Vic managed to get any alcohol considering they weren't 18 yet.

"So, have you guys thought about what you're gonna dress up as?" Ella asked.

Rachel, Alyssa and Vic shook their heads. Dennise and Mika both had massive grins on their faces. Alyssa and Vic looked worried

"I have the perfect couple picked out for me and Alyssa." Mika told them.

Alyssa looked nervous.

"What? But we haven't even discussed it yet." Alyssa replied through gritted teeth.

"That's because there is nothing to discuss Alyssa, it's been decided and we will be going to pick up our costumes tomorrow afternoon." Mika informed her

"What? How come I don't get a say in this?"

"Because you would just veto every idea I would have come up with."

Alyssa just sighed.

"Fine...what are we going as?"

Mika smiled big and brightly.

"The ultimate romantic couple in history...Romeo and Juliet. Obviously, I would be playing the part as Juliet where you Alyssa will be Romeo." Mika explained.

Vic and Rachel couldn't hold in their laughter at the expression on Alyssa's face.

"No way! Why do I have to be the guy?" Alyssa yelled.

"Though I'm taller than you with few inch, for me you're so hot when you dress up as a guy." Mika replied.

"SO! That's a stupid excuse! I'm not going as a guy. Why can't we just go as...as...Willow and Tara from Buffy?" Alyssa asked.

"Alyssa, I know you love that show but I would never call them a famous couple from history."

Alyssa looked at her girlfriend in shock.

"Blasphemy!" Alyssa shouted then stormed out of the room and slammed the bedroom door shut.

Mika just rolled her eyes and sighed.
