The second that Willow, Julie, and Sarah arrived at my condo, everything was insane. They were all rushing around, doing my makeup then hair before helping me find proper undergarments to wear under the dress that had been selected for me, which I had yet to see. They all insisted it be a surprise. I was soon slipped into a pair of seamless underwear to avoid underwear lines and was not wearing a bra because the dress was padded with an open back, and it would just look odd to wear a bra and have it showing at the back .
"Alright, Ella, are you ready for this dress?" Willow grinned, excitedly, carrying the garment bag into my room, making me bounce on my toes in excitement as I nodded eagerly, alright come here," She directed, pointing me behind the makeshift dressing area we'd created and made me close my eyes as they tugged on the dress for me and sipped up the back. I felt them help me sit then slip on a pair of heels, before helping me to stand again, "Open your eyes," Willow whispered and they shot open, my jaw dropping at the girl I saw in the mirror. I looked beautiful. I haven't felt that beautiful since my high school prom, four years ago. I looked glowing in the gold dress with my blonde hair lightly curled and all of it pinned over my left shoulder.
"Wow," I whispered, doing a three-sixty to look at myself all around, "Thank you girls, so much," I thanked, hugging each of them, then jumping when the doorbell rang, signaling that Harry was here. Julie rushed over to the desk and grabbed my matching gold clutch, which she had filled with my cellphone, lip gloss, and some money for emergency while Willow and Sarah went to let Harry in.
"Ready?" Julie sighed, looking at me in awe and I replied, "Yep," And she walked in front of me down the hall. I could see Harry laughing at something that Willow or Sarah had said and couldn't help but admire his fit body in the black and white patterned shirt covered by a black suit-jacket that was patterned around the collar. His slim legs were covered in a pair of simple, skinny, black jeans with his brown boots on his feet and a black fedora covering his long curls.
When my heels hit the hardwood floor and began to click, his head shot toward me and his eyes widened as Julie stepped out of the way and he scanned my body with his darkening eyes, taking his bottom lip between his teeth while he admired my dress, "Ella... you look incredible," He complimented, walking closer until we stopped in front of each other and he leaned in, pressing a kiss to my cheek, making me flush.
"Thank you, Harry, you don't look to bad yourself," I joked, making him chuckle before he turned to the girls and saying, "Thank you for your help, but we must be going,"
They all nodded and said, "You're welcome," before letting Harry and I leave and telling me they would lock up once they cleaned up in my room, and with that we were on the way down the front stairs. When I looked up from where Harry had grabbed my hand and held it in his, my jaw dropped at the sight of a sleek, black, stretch Hummer in front of my house. I looked around and saw some of my neighbors standing on their front porches, staring at the sight at my house as Harry opened the door for me and helped me in before sliding in next to me and sliding toward the front to tell the driver we were ready.
There was music playing quietly and Harry leaned to the mini fridge against the wall between us and the driver, and pulled out a bottle of champagne with two glasses, then carefully poured me a glass and passed it to me before pouring one for himself as well, "I propose a toast," He started, "To your first shoot and event with Victoria's Secret, congrats, Ella," He smirked, making me giggle and clinked my glass with his before we both sipped from the glasses.
