Lydia and I spent most of our afternoon at the mall, we went shopping for dresses for her birthday party tonight. She got a couple dresses for herself, one for Allison, and one for me.

I let her pick out my dress, since it's her birthday and all. She settled on a short green floral print mesh cami dress, and boy, was it beautiful.

I took her out to lunch and then we decided to head to Allison's to get ready. We walked up the stairs and through her doorway.

"Clear your schedule—this could take a while." Lydia suggested, as we came in the room with bags hanging off our wrists.

Allison smiled as she walked over to the bed, where me and Lydia set down the bags.

"...How many outfits do you plan on wearing tonight?" Ally asks giggling.

"It's my birthday party! I'm thinking host dress, evening dress, then, hmm...after-hours casual?"

I smile widely, watching Lydia get excited about tonight.

Allison speaks up, hesitantly. "I noticed that you didn't send out any invites..."

"It's the biggest party of the year, Allison—everyone knows." She replies, laying a dress down on the bed.

"I have a feeling things will be different this year." I mutter.

"This one's American Rag, Mm, I love it." Lydia states as she holds up a tan dress, "for me, not you."

She holds up a pink-ish red flowery dress in front of Ally. "This one's Material Girl. It's for you."

Ally's mom knocks on the door as Lyds holds up a short strapless blue dress.

"Mrs. Argent, what do you think of this one?"

"Oh, it's lovely..."

She seems to have her mind on other things, I wonder what...I smirked to myself.

"Hi, Mrs. Argent, how are you?" I ask her, smiling brightly, even though it took everything in me not to attack the woman for trying to kill Scott.

"I'm okay honey, thank you." She smiles back.

She goes on to ask Allison to speak with her before she goes, and she completely blows her off.
