I continued to drive to Marble's house where Devin, Amethyst, Marble, Marilyn, and Tisha were all waiting. After that whole debacle with he who shan't be named, Prom planning was much needed with my girls.
After about 10 minutes I was outside her house. When I walked in I heard the indistinct squealing. Before I could even begin to knock, Marble was at door and Tisha pretty chocolate cheeks were flushing.
"Guess who the fuck Tisha is going to prom with!" Marble exclaimed. I looked at her and played dumb as if I didn't know. "Who?" I 'dumbfoundly' asked. "Evan" she sweetly said as she put her head down trying to hid her smirk.
"Ohmahhhgodddddddddddddddd!" I exclaimed. "Well shit! It's about damn time." I said as Marble nodded her head in agreement. "You all knew that he liked me?" Tisha asked.
"Come on girl. Evan nearly shitted his pants every time he saw you. You bring something out in him that I've never seen no other girl do. You're changing him and you're not even together! Just imagine how much of a person he'd actuallt be if y'all were together." I concluded as Marble got ready to jump in "Yeah girl, I mean that boy is like skin, bone, and muscle. Not including his heart. He has done a complete 360 since he has meet you! Remember that."
She blushed even harder and I had asked her, "So, how did he ask? Was it a prom-prosal? Or what?"
She started to explain some techy shit about Evan and his gr Great Value version of 'SAW'. She then pushed played and started to show us a little bit of the video. "Ah, I see that you have figured out my encryption." the voice said.
When the video finished both me and Marble were baffled as hell! "So, when did he ask you again?" I asked. The she said, "You see that part got me too. It's right here in my face but I couldn't get it. But all I could think about was Evan. So then it hit me! Subliminal messaging. So I ran the clip backwards and slow down the audio and got this. "I'd knew you figure it out, because you're smart and brilliant and I would be honored to have you, Tisha, as my Prom date for the Class of 2015 and then I was able to figure out the jumble. Everything was either reversed or misdirected. ZV3< = Evan. He did a good job."
I just sat there. Trying to process the fact the my brother, actually knows what he's doing. I gave Tisha a smile and a hug. This is her very first prom. She never went while she was in school because she was too shy and very focused on her studies. But now that all changing.
That shit was very cute but also boring, lol. I mean all that tech shit just isn't for me. But, I'd endure anything for my girls. After that we all went to Marble room where we were hit with more news.
"Sooooo,Emmy, guess who we are going to prom with?" Amethyst said with a smile. As if I didn't already know I said, "Who?"
She then grabbed Devin's hand and said 'my girlfriend' and shot a smile to Devin who was smiling ear to ear. I am so happy for them.
"Well, I'm going with that Demarcus Thompson fine ass!" Marble exclaimed as I dapped her up. "Who asked who?" I asked her. "Girlllll his sexy ass slide up the way into my DMs' before first period and popped the question." Her answered as she did the 'harlem shake.' This girl is a fool.
"What about you?" I asked looking at Marilyn. "Well, I don't exactly have a date." She said. "Hey! how about Greg?' Marble suggested. My eyes grew wide and I was about to tell them about what had happened when Marilyn interrupted and agreed. "That's a great idea! Greg is so cute, sweet, and I reckon since you are back with Derrick he's back on the market." She happily exclaimed. She just looked so happy, I couldn't hurt her.
"Yeah, I think that's a good idea. Here, here is his number." I said handing her my phone. I watch her skip int the back and dial his number, "Hello? Greg?" I heard her say as she walked into the backroom.
"There's nothing wrong with Greg" I kept telling myself. "If there's nothing wrong, then why can't I shake this feeling? What Have I done?"
THE NEXT DAY
I woke up with that same feeling. I checked my phone and saw a message from Marilyn saying that he said yes. Then the feeling hit me harder. Today we were going prom dress shopping and after that I was going to go talk to Greg's mom.
I got in my car and drove to Marble house where we all got into Tisha SUV (Dodge Durango) and off we went. We all had a idea of want we wanted. I wanted a black dress with lace, and my accessories were going to be red.
Marble wanted something green. Marilyn anted something tight. Devin and Amethyst wanted complementary, and Tisha was clueless. The first store we went to was David's Bridal. I just looked around to see if they had what I wanted. But no such luck. See, I love shopping but my body is so weirdly shaped. My body type is like a plus size pear, because my bottom is severely bigger than my top. Even though I dropped almost 45 pounds, my hips and thighs were going nowhere.
Long story short, A.) I didn't see the dress I wanted. B.)Nothing fits me right. C.) Everything is here is so freaking expensive.
So, I stopped looking for me and went to help Tisha. "Is there something in particular you are looking for?" She shook her head. "Well, what don't you like?" I asked. "How about you just pick something out for me" She suggested while pushing me towards the dresses. "Okay, do you have an idea for the colors?" I asked while shifting through the dresses. "Red and white" she answered.
"Red and white" I muttered to myself looking for a something to catch my eye. "Okay what style do you like?"
"Um, I've seen this dress where the neckline is high and it goes from the collarbone to the shoulder cap and it's kinda mesh. I'm sorry I suck at explaining things." she said nervously.
"Don't worry about it. How tall are you and what's you size?" I asked her. "I'm about 5'7 and 6" she answered. I pulled myself away from the dresses and looked at her.
"Okay so how do you feel about this dress?" I said as I pulled this gorgeous Bateau scalloped neckline dress with a sheer top along white embellishments.
She was speechless. She went to try it on and I swear time stopped. She looked so beautiful. "Tisha, you HAVE to get that." Marble said as stepped out in this pastel green backless dress. "I'll get this if you get that" she answered as she gestured her hand up and down Marble's body. "Done and Done" she said as they shook on it.
Then Marilyn, Devin, and Amethyst came out in their dress. Marilyn was wearing this silver A-line dress with plunging neckline.
Devin and Amethyst was wearing this black and white dresses. It was cute because Devin had white and black dress with a white bow and Amethyst had a white dress with a black bowtie. I loved this. They were so fucking cute!
After they all paid, we were walking out when I heard someone yelling after us. "WAIT, WAIT!" a salesperson yelled at us. We turned around and they said, "We have a dress for you. It was hold and the buyer cancelled, follow me" she said gesturing me towards her. We walked to the back and I watched her unzip my fucking dress. It was PERFECT. Strapless. Lace. Black. Beautiful.
"This was tailored and everything for the original buyer, but last minute she decided she did not want it." The saleswomen said as she helped me into the dress. It was a little big on me, but I could take it in add this to my portfolio for fashion school.
"I'll take it!" I exclaimed and I brought my dress and we headed back home. It was a long day and it's not even over yet. I rode over to 453 Marywether Lane. I pulled in the driveway, got out the car, and knocked on the door.
A female opened the door and I asked, "Nicole?" she nodded her head and said, "Must be Emerald. I've heard a lot about you. Come in, I know you have questions."
HEY GUYS! Hope you enjoyed! I was stuck for the longest lol. Sorry for the wait! Pictures of the dresses are at the top.
