*Skye's P.O.V.*

I slipped into my turquoise cutout dress that had rhinestones all over the bust, which is the fancy way of saying 'boobs'.

I curled my hair before doing my makeup. I checked my phone to see if anyone text me.

M: I can't wait to see Alicia tonight! Haha!

I slipped into my heels before replying.

S: I know! The suspense is killing me!

I walked into the living room, gathering my things while my mom started to act mom-like.

"Do you have everything? Do you need any money or anything? Are you going to be okay? You have my number in case you need anything, right? Are you sure your dress is appropriate?"

"Yes, yes, yes, yes and yes. Mom, I'm going to be fine" I reassured her, answering the questions that I wasn't listening to.

"Okay, well have fun"

"I will"

"Okay, now let me take some pictures of you" she said.

She took a few pictures of me before there was a knock on the door.

"I'll get it" I said opening the door to see Niall.

On a scale of one to ten, Niall's at least a hundred, but put that boy in a tuxedo and daaaaaaaaaamn! He's easily a thousand.

His neck tattoo slightly peeking out of the collar of his shirt and the small diamond studs where his snakebites usually are and his hair was... blonde?

I've never seen Niall with a natural hair color before. His hair has always been blue or purple or green or red or... pretty much anything unnatural.

I greeted Niall before saying bye to my mom.

"Wait, don't you want to take pictures together?!" My mom called out after us.

"Bye!" I said before Niall and I left.

We got into his car, which I haven't been in for a long time, and Niall drove off.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" He asked.

"I've never seen you with a natural hair color before" I told him.

"Yes, you have! Last year" he laughed.

"That seems like forever ago! I can hardly remember what you looked like without any tattoos!" I told him. "It's just strange seeing you with a natural hair color"

"Why? Does it look bad?" He asked, clearly not realizing that it's physically impossible for him to look bad.

"No, it looks good. It's just going to take some getting used to"

He pulled in front of a house I didn't recognize and started searching his pockets.

"Is this your house?" I asked, pointing towards the two story Victorian house. It was nice, nothing I can afford.

He looked up at me. "No, it's Percy's" he said, now searching his car.

"What're you looking for?"

"My phone, I was gonna text Percy and tell him we're here. I think I may have left it in my house. Do you mind texting him for me?"

"No problem" I said, texting Percy.

"Thanks"

A minute or two later, Percy walked out in a tuxedo and climbed into the back of Niall's car.

"You decided to go yesterday. How did you get a tuxedo the day before a dance?" Niall asked him, driving away.

"Every guy should have a tuxedo just in case, just like every girl should have a spare dress just in case" he replied. We nodded in response as Niall pulled in front of a familiar brick house. I text Monique and she walked out in a peach halter dress.

"Hey guys! Vic couldn't make it, but he's definitely coming to prom" she explained, climbing into the backseat.

Niall drove off and pulled in front of a huge house. It was definitely the nicest and biggest house on the block.

"Is this your house?" I asked shyly, spinning a strand of hair around my finger.

"You've never seen my house before?" He asked. I shook my head. "I have to go inside and grab my phone, I'll be right back"

Once he left I turned, asking Percy why he decided to come at the last minute.

"I'm not going to miss Alicia's makeover" he explained.

"Niall can't know it was us or he'll be pissed" Monique said.

"I'm not going to tell him"

"Good, 'cause if you did, Skye and I would have to kill you" she joked.

"Sorry about that" Niall apologized, climbing into the car.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When we got to the dance, we were standing in the back, talking and waiting for everyone to show up, especially Alicia.

Once everyone else showed up, people started dancing and having a good time.

"Where's Alicia? I hope she didn't change her mind" I whispered to Monique.

"I doubt it. She probably probably wants to be fashionably late"

"Or in this case, unfashionably late" Percy joked.

"Why don't we sit down? My feet are killing me" Monique whined.

We sat down at a round table, Niall's back to the door.

Nathan and Andre passed by talking.

"So you and Alicia are on a break?" Andre asked.

"Yeah, she thought I was cheating on her with Pamela" Nathan replied.

"Were you?" Andre asked.

"Yeah, but she doesn't know that" Nathan continued as they walked away.

I looked at Niall, who looked like he was thinking, probably about how to get Alicia back.

Just as I was about to see what was up with him, the door flew open. Percy snorted as Monique and I snickered at the sight of Alicia.

Alicia had green hair and orange skin and she was wearing an orange dress. Lyndsey followed her carrot-like friend into the dance.

After a minute, the three of us couldn't contain ourselves any longer and we started laughing our asses off.

"She looks like a fucking carrot" Monique laughed.

A very confused Niall turned to see what we were laughing at.

"Oh. My. God! What the hell happened to her?" He asked, turning back towards us.

"She looks like she took the whole 'you are what you eat' thing literally" Percy laughed.

"Wait, did you guys do that?" Niall asked, pointing towards Alicia. We ignored him and continued laughing. "Oh my God, you did! I can't believe this!" He said angrily.

"It's not what you think" I told him, not laughing anymore. He ignored me and walked off. "Niall!" I called after him. He walked over to Alicia, who everyone was laughing at now except for the three of us, and he danced with her, clearly pissed at us.

"This dance sucks, let's go clubbing"
