I've spent the last 2 weeks hanging out with Elle and Neil. Mike's been at college.
I hadn't returned to Wild West and have done a good job at ignoring texts and calls.
Elle and I have spent almost everyday together, with or without Neil.
She's growing on me. Her laugh rings in my head.
It's Halloween and I watch as the neighbours and their kids all dress up and head out. The appartments were covered in toilet paper, out of towners on a rampage with tricks. Bored kids just looking for shit to vandalise.
Neil and Elle convinced me to come with them to a party Mike's college friend was hosting. They'd be here soon to pick me up and the best outfit I could come up with was my cowgirl uniform. Ugh, I suck.
I put my hair in a plait, chucked on a flannel, my trusty blue jeans and a cowboy hat. Elle's gonna laugh at me. She told me to put some effort in.
I picked up my phone and sent Elle a text.
Andi:
Ready & waiting :)
Not Neil:
If you're dressed as a cowgirl I'm gonna undress you myself and force you to wear something else.
Andi:
Is that a promise?
Not Neil:
You're insufferable.
Andi:
<3
Not Neil:
We're nearly there! I think... GPS is taking us to a motel?
Andi:
I put the home in motel.
Not Neil:
There's no H in motel :P
Andi:
There doesn't need to be if you say it like a cowgirl. 'ome.
Not Neil:
Idiot.
I wait outside for Neil & Elle, I can see Mike's truck coming into the parking lot and I flag them down.
"HA! Elle, pay up!" Neil says as I get in the passenger seat.
Elle's dressed as Patrick Bateman, hair slicked back, plastic poncho and covered in fake blood. She looks... really hot... I blush just looking at her. She sees me checking her out, "Hey! I told you to put more effort in! Now I'm down $20." Elle hands Neil a $20.
"Told you she'd dress as a cowgirl." Neil's dressed a priest.
"You guys look really good." I tell them from the backseat.
"Thanks, you look..." Elle starts,
"Like I'm the most wanted?" I finish her sentence, repeating her cowboy pickup line from the night we met & she goes bright red.
"Something like that." She says, Neil smiles at her, nudging her arm. "Let's go, we're gonna be late."
"Ay ay Mr Bateman!"
-------------
We arrive at the party and wow, Mike didn't mention the place we were going was basically a mansion and frat boy galore. We find our way to a kitchen, pour ourselves some drinks and set out to look for Mike.
All the people here were students at Mikes college, but with the amount of people around, no one would second guess us at all. Elle held out her hand for me to hold as she leads the way through the crowd. Butterflies.
We find Mike and he introduces us to his friends, he was dressed as a killer clown.
The outfits around were crazy, Elle and I created a game where we took a shot everytime we say a girl in a sexy cat or sexy maid outfit. We soon just limited it to sexy maids because the cat ear rule got us drunk pretty fast.
