Launch Party

Leslie

"Hey babe we have to get going soon." Sam says as he fixes his hair in the bathroom.

"I know I'm doing my makeup." I reply back to him. I look so crazy right now, I have a bunch of big rollers in my hair and I have half of my makeup on. "Babe have you seen my eyeliner?" I yell while rustling through my makeup.

"Sorry babe I was using it yesterday." He says sarcastically.

"How fucking funny. I found it." I pick the eyeliner up from all the clustered makeup and begin applying it.

Sam comes out the bathroom and just stares at me with a smile on his face.

"What?" I laugh.

"You don't need any makeup, you're beautiful without it." Sam walks up to me and kisses my cheeks.

"As corny as that was I got to finish up. But thank you." I flash him a smile.

"Since I'm already done I'll just wait for you in the living room." Sam walks out the room and shuts the door behind him.

I was struggling to find something to wear but then I remembered the box I got from the mail man the other day. I pulled the box from underneath my bed and I unwrapped the bow that was placed on top of it.

I immediately gasp once I see what's in the box, it was a pair of white high waisted pants with a matching blazer and this cutout crop top.

"Thank you Justin." I whispered.

I put on the entire outfit and accessorized it with my white chanel bag, silver earrings, silver bracelets, and my white strappy heels. I took the rollers out of my hair and brushed my fingers through it, last thing I did was spray perfume all over me.

"Perfect." I smiled in the mirror.

I walked out the room and into the living room, the look on Sam's face said it all.

"You look...Wow." He stutters.

"Thank you babe." I quickly peck his lips and grab the car keys.

"I'll drive the leading lady tonight." Sam takes the keys from my hand. He opens the front door and lets me exit first.

During the whole ride to the event I just kept fidgeting around. I'm so nervous about tonight.

"Everything is going to be fine." Sam places his hand on mine.

When we pull up to the party there were photographers, reporters, and a bunch of people arriving.

"Remember babe, this is your night." Sam steps out of the car, walks to my side and opens the door for me.

All the flashing lights turn towards me and I instantly smiled, Sam stood along by my side.

"Leslie over here."
"Leslie turn this way."
"Are you excited about tonight?"
"Congratulations Leslie."

"Thank you guys." I smile to all the photographers then made my way inside the party. As soon as I walked through the door all eyes were on me and everybody was clapping.

"Here she is Ladies and Gentlemen, the host Leslie Velasquez." The dj yells over the playing music.

There was strobing lights everywhere, fog machines, the music was so loud you could feel the bass moving your body. People were either on the dance floor or talking to each other.

"You liking it so far?" Sam yells over the loud music.

"It's incredible, I can't believe I actually did it." I smile as I look around the club.
