"Wow, you look lovely sweetheart!" my mom complimented
"Are you sure?" I asked, looking down and then looking back at the reflection who I assume is me.
It's the night of all nights, the night to remember and every girls dream: the prom. Everyone who made it through the senior school years is buzzing with excitement for tonight, especially the boys who either asked their date or their girlfriend. My friends all have dates and are on their way to pick me up in a limo they hired. Unfortunately, no one asked me to the dance. I was okay at first; I am kind of tall for a girl, taller than most of the boys but seeing my friends with dates kind makes me feel a little left out.
"Don't worry! You look absolutely stunning!" Mom squealed. Tonight I am wearing a simple blue dress cascading down to my ankles that hugs my curves nicely and I'm also wearing black flats. My hair for once is tied up in a tight bun with a few strands of hair hanging on the side of my face. The only accessory that I have on is my ruby necklace to finish my outfit. For the first time in ages, I let my older sister and my mom do my make-up and I have to say they did a pretty good job of it. There's just enough to enhance my features. I was nervous at first, but now that I'm looking at myself I can't help but stare.
Just as I was walking out of my bedroom, there was a flash of light right in front of me. I was blinded for a few seconds and I saw dad with a camera ready to take pictures. "Say cheese!" flash "Dad!" I groaned. I seriously have to get going. "Oh come on, lurch! It's been ages since you looked like a girl" Dad teased. It was true though, besides special occasions I always dress like a boy. Dad was totally fine with it but my mom kept on complaining about my style. "Style? What style?" my sister would tease me sometimes. But still, it was nice to dress up fancy. "Are they here yet?" I asked and just when the words left my mouth, a beep came from the road outside.
The sun was beginning to set and as I walked out a black limo was parked right in front of my house. The back door opened and out came my best friends in the whole galaxy who I trust more than anyone I have ever known (besides my family). Josh and Ben were fraternal twins, born one minute apart with Josh as the oldest. They are completely different, but that's what I love about them. Josh is a brunette with a fierce passion for film and theatre. His dream is to become a film director. Ben is blonde and even though he's gay, he absolutely loves theatre. He loves dressing up as a drag queen and making us do weird but fun things. Josh was wearing a black tuxedo with a black tie and Ben was wearing a velvet buttoned up shirt and a black jacket to go over it, making them look classy with their dates. Ben and Josh came straight to me and both gave me a hug.
"Darling, you look fabulous!" Ben exclaimed with a sassy attitude. "Wow, you look amazing!" Josh says admiringly. "Thanks, you guys don't look too bad yourselves" I commented. I looked back at the limo and I saw my girl-friend Shaniah. Shaniah came from Sri Lanka. We met in Year 7 at District athletics on the way back to school. We talked for while on the bus and turns out we had a lot in common. We both love superheroes (her favourite is Batman) and movies (I am a Hobbit fan whilst she loves Bruce Willis and Leonardo DiCaprio movies) and also actors (She loves Johnny Depp whilst I love Tom hiddleston) and we've been friends ever since. She is dressed in a purple dress with a matching cardigan to go with it and her reddish hair cascading down over one shoulder with sparkling earrings attached to her ears. She walked to me with some impressive high heels and gave me hug then a friendly punch on the arm. Josh asked her to the prom and she said yes obviously. Ben came with one of our friends Brianna. They asked me if I was okay going alone to the dance, but I brushed it off saying it was okay. I didn't want them to do anything they don't want to do. "So who's ready to rock tonight?!!" Ben screamed and we all shouted "WE ARE!!!!" and laughed. My dad told us to pose for one more photo and we all did.
