Roxanne

Chapter 9

(Woo By Rhianna)

Roxanne's Pov

"What are you doing today? Wanna have a girls day?" Julie asked, walking into her spare room where I was staying.

"I thought you had work, hence why I haven't moved from bed." She laughed, laying on the bed next to me.

"I don't have work until tonight. Wanna go shopping for the party with me and Eryn? You can help us decorate." She smiled and I felt my heart melt.

They want me there?

"Of course I'll come with you guys. I just need to get ready." Julie got up, and left the room, closing the door so that I could change.

I put on sweatpants and a crop top before putting my slides on. I didn't feel like pulling my sneakers out and wearing them.

I grabbed my leather jacket, Matteo and I had them. We got them when we both got motorcycles, and we both wear them all the time now. Some things never go out of style.

I walked out of the room after making sure I had my phone and wallet, and Julie looked at me with a smile. Matteo was cuddled up on the couch watching a movie which caused me to laugh.

"Be safe. Love you both." He said as we started walking out of the apartment.

"Do you want to drive? Only so I know that you have enough leg room?" Julie joked, causing me to smile.

She always made me feel normal to be tall, even though she was short. I towered over Julie, but she still made it seem like I was right there on the same level as her.

"Yeah I can drive. Only if you're comfortable though. I don't want to drive your car if you don't want me to." She tossed me the keys and got into the driver's seat.

I learned how to drive a stick shift because of Jaxon. I guess it was one of the good things that I got to learn from him. He taught me in his Dad's car when we first started to date. It was one of our first dates after becoming a couple.

Something about driving a motorcycle or a manual car as a woman made me feel so powerful. I know that it did the same for Julie, that's why she had one. I remember hearing the story of how she learned. Her brother taught her, and she loved it, so her brother bought her this car.

I put the seat back because I was way too tall for the way that she had her seat set up. I moved her mirrors a little bit, and put on my seatbelt. Unlike my brother, I liked making sure that I was safe.

"Where is Eryn's house?" I asked before noticing her pulling it up on her gps and setting her phone up on the holder.

"Thanks Chica." I pushed the clutch in, and started her car.

I rolled the windows down a little, I know that Julie likes the windows down, and I do too. After being on a motorcycle for so long, you get used to the wind, the hair flying. You get used to that feeling.

I started driving towards Eryn's house. The music blared as we drove. When we pulled up to Eryn's house, she sprinted out of the house with a smile on her face, and her bag thrown over her shoulder.

"Be safe! I love you!" I assume her boyfriend yelled.

Noah, I think his name is.

I'll figure it out at the party.

"Hey ladies!" She said, sliding into the car, and putting on her normal seatbelt.

"Hey Babe." Julie looked back at her with a smile.

"What is up Shawty?" I tried my best to have a New York accent, but failed miserably.

"Who's ready to shop?!" She clapped her hands iht a smile on her face as I pulled out of her long driveway and started to drive towards the mall.

"What are the odds that I dye my hair blonde for the halloween party?" Eryn asked, lookin at her phone.

"Please don't." Julie said, cringing at the thought of it.

"Just buy a wig, they are pretty easy to put on." I shrugged, pulling into a parking spot.

"What are you even being?" Julie asked, as I turned off the car, and got out. I put the keys in my pocket and walked up to them as we started walking into the mall.

"I can't tell. It's a secret." She pretended to lock her lips, throw the key on the ground and stomp on it.

She's so funny.

"We need decorations. Get whatever you want. It's on me." Eryn gave us each a cart, and I pushed it through the store.

"Is there a theme?" I asked, turning around to look at her.

"Monster Mash? Even though I think nobody is dressing up as anything scary." Eryn said, a small smile forming on her face as she looked down at her phone.

"I am. Well.. Kind of." I spoke before shrugging and walking through the store.

I grabbed a blonde wing for Eryn, so I could make sure that she wouldn't dye her hair blonde for a costume. The cart was a little less than halfway full. I didn't want to go so crazy, but when I met back up with Eryn she had two carts full, and Julie had hers almost full.

"Jeex, you two know how to spend money." I said before they both broke out into laughter.

"Yeah. It's a bad habit..." Eryn pushed the cart up to check out, and the worker's eyes almost bulged out of his head.

"Holy shit i dont get paid enough for this." He whispered under his breath before starting to scan things.

I'm so ready for this party.
