Lover Era

Chapter Nine

Makena laughs as I rant about how I've got nothing to wear. "Why not this?" She suggests, holding up a deep red dress that's down to my knees. Instantly, I shake my head wildly. Last time I wore that it was to my second date with Connor. We had only went to a simple movie but I wanted to look really pretty for him.

She gives me a weird look. "Makena, that's the dress I wore to Connor and I's second date!" I explain. Makena drops it, making her way back into my closet. She's been helping me pick an outfit for Conner and I's date later.

As soon as Conner hung up, I went to call Makena. Believe me when I say she started freaking out. She mentioned that her and Darron had been predicting this ever since we all met. Thinking about it now, that's probably what Darron meant by "Makena and I's dream." Don't know how I didn't predict that sooner.

I had only an hour and a half left until my date with Conner and all I've done is put on makeup. I'm smart enough to know doing my hair before changing is a horrible idea. I swear though, none of my dresses feel right for this.

Conner had texted me again this morning asking if the date was still one. It probably took me like, thirty minutes to reply. I was honestly thinking of just saying I was sick and canceling. Makena convinced me not to though. I think it was the best idea too, because he seems really excited for this.

Finally, Makena comes out again, a grin stretched onto her face. "Okay, you better like this because I think I've found the perfect dress!" She exclaims. I give her a confused look until she holds up the dress. It's the one I wore for the Eras tour. "Perfect, right?" She giggles.

My jaw drops. "The Eras tour dress? What else would I wear with it? It's not like I can dress like I did during the concert!" I argue. Makena smirks.

"Exactly why you're not going to!" She runs to my bathroom. After a bit, she comes right back out holding our pearl earrings and a simple, thin, gold chain necklace. I smile. "With these, it's just a simple little outfit. I'm a genius, aren't I?"

Standing, I wink at her, grabbing everything before heading into the bathroom. I carefully dress into the pretty pink dress. I really hope Conner likes it. It's not like the memory of our first meet up was all that memorable. Who knows, though, maybe he'll love it anyways!

Once I'm changed, I swiftly step out of the bathroom, showing off to Makena. "How do you like it?" I ask with a giggle. Makena claps in approval.

"Sally, it's prefect! You are absolutely lovely! I doubt my opinion matters though, you've got a date soon and you still have to do your hair!" She scolds. Chuckling, I head right back into the bathroom. I've got a pretty good feeling about today.
