"Oh my Goddddd........I look so hot" lea squealed as she twisted and turned in front of the full length mirror in rory's room. It's the day of their graduation. That day they're going to celebrate taking another step into adulthood and say a thousand fuck yous to school works, projects and annoying coursemates.
Lea turned back to look around the room for Rory if she's done dressing "Hey girl, you done yet?"
"Nope" Aurora yelled from the bathroom
Aurora got back home pretty late last night after the dinner. Since Lea was already sound asleep, she also went straight to bed after taking a short shower, deciding to save the long one for this morning. She needed it after all the negativity at the dinner yesternight.
"What exactly are you doing in there? You've been in there for like the past fifty minutes" lea exclaimed as she started styling her hair
Aurora walked out of the bathroom, her hair wrapped with a small towel and her body, in a long one, dripping with water "I'm taking a shower. Ever heard of it?......that thing where people soak themselves inside water for a long time to get rid of dirts and germs from their skin pores. Besides, i need it after last night" she said as she walked across the room to do her skincare
Lea scowled at her as she let her hair down from the bun she packed it in "Okay, someone's being a smartass"
Aurora smirked as she looked over to lea. The outfit looks really good on her "You look gorgeous by the way and we aren't even done with your makeup. God, I'm so good at what I do......I mean look at that" she said as waved her arms up and down, gesturing at Lea's body
"Cocky much?"
"Nah, just stating facts"
"Yea,yea. Hurry up and come help me with all of this. I need to look and feel my best today"
"Yes ma'am. Give me a few minutes"
Lea walked towards the bed and grabbed her phone, she took a seat and decided to check the messages she got.
Cameron💜: good morning baby, congratulations on your graduation by the way. I know you'll probably be busy with preparations and I'll tell you this later when I see you, i just want to let you know that I'm proud of you and I love you so much. Can't wait to see you.
Lea swooned in her mind at her thoughtful boyfriend and his sweet message before she decided to reply him with a 'thanks babe. I can't wait to see you too and I love you' with tons of love and kissy face emojis.
She scrolled further down and saw a couple of other messages, from her parents who congratulated her and told her they can't wait to see her later. Then she checked her brother's message
Big bro: hey lea, wassup? Just wanted to tell you that I landed yesterday and I'll be coming with mom and dad. can't wait to see you and Rory. She's gonna be there right? Congrats by the way
Lea smiled after reading the message, typical Tyrone. She replied his message and place her phone down deciding to reply the other ones later. She stood up and went to meet Rory to help her with her hair and make up.
-----------------------------------------
An hour later
"....Yes we're about to leave....Hnmm.......Can't wait to see you guys......no, they haven't called me....they're probably busy....Yes....see you soon" Aurora sighed as she dropped the call, it was from her grandmother who wanted to check up on her and make sure she doesn't feel bad from last night's event.
She's way over it
"I'm all done. God, we look so sexy" lea exclaimed as she walked into the room with a stylish silver purse in her hand. Aurora had helped lea with her hair after she finished dressing up a few minutes ago and they both look beautiful in their dresses. With lea in a coral halter-neck long gown with a slit at the upper thigh, spotting silver details along the slit and on the halter neck, serving as a necklace and will make the gown reflect in a brightly lit place. She paired it with silver heels, silver rose bracelets and dropping earrings. Her hair was packed up in a messy bun leaving some baby hairs to frame her face and beautified with silver hair clips in different forms. In one word, she looked stunning.
While Aurora was dressed in a forest green coloured gown with an open back with only tiny straps going in a zigzag motion to hold the sides together at the back. The gown was straight up until the knee with a little flare all the way down. She straightened her black hair and let it fall past her shoulders, holding it behind her ear with hairpins in the shapes of a butterfly and heart. She paired it with silver jewelleries too with a silver wedge. In one word, she looked captivating
"You bet we do girl" Rory smiled as they both took mirror pictures, selfies and photos in crazy positions
Lea checked her wristwatch for the time and realized they should probably get going
"Let's go"
"Wait...What about food? I'm not hungry now because of all the anxiousness but that doesn't mean I won't want to eat later"
"Don't worry, we'll eat at the after party okay. Right now, i might throw up anything I'll eat"
"Same, let's go then"
They both stepped out of the house into the limo waiting outside for them. Aurora's grandparents made plans for their transportation to the venue. Aurora got in first after greeting the guard who opened the door, one of her grandfather's men she'd seen at the mansion a few times. Lea got in after.
"Guess who asked of you this morning" lea Said facing Aurora as they both settled in the car
"Huh..Cameron?"
"Well, Cameron asked after you but someone else did"
"Who?"
"Your long time secret admirer, Tyrone" lea said wiggling her eyebrows at Aurora as she took two wine glasses and poured both of them the drink
"Oh, you could've just said 'my brother Tyrone asked of you this morning' you know? I'll have you know he's not my secret admirer, we share a platonic brother-sister relationship and I'd like that not to be spoiled, besides, need I remind you of Asian girls?" Aurora said as she took the other wine glass
"Like I once said, keep telling yourself that. He's my brother and I know him. And if you're gonna brother-zone him, let him down gently please?God...he's gonna be so heart broken" lea said knowing already that her brother has no chance so he'll have to stop his crush or whatever he has on Rory
"Okay, ma'am. Whatever you say" Aurora smiled as she took a sip of the drink
"You know you haven't given me details of what went down last night with your family" lea said
"Well someone was fast asleep by the time I got home last night and I don't want to start the day thinking about what happened last night. I'll tell you later"
"Is it that bad?" Lea said looking concerned for her friend. She has seen it first hand how rory's parent can be so toxic so she can't put it past them to do crazy things
"Nah, i took care of it just fine" Aurora said with a grin
"Okay, with that look on your face, i have no doubt you did. Are they gonna be present today?" Lea asked referring to rory's parents and sister
"I don't think so but grandfather told them not to miss it so I'm not really sure if they'll come or look for an excuse again" Aurora said
"Oh......Today's gonna be so much fun" lea said as she brought out her phone from her purse to Take pictures with Rory in the car.
After they took pictures, both girls went through them looking for sexy ones to post online since they both have quite impressive social media presence, especially lea, due to her work as a model.
