My Best Friend's Brother ♡

Five

Just a week before prom. Seven days. This was the time to start getting prepared. It was Sunday afternoon, and I had to go home tomorrow. Of course, no one wanted that, so I called my mom to ask her to stay for the rest of the week. And the cool thing about our school was that we have the whole week off to get ready for prom and graduation.

I picked up their house phone on the wall in the kitchen.

It rung. . .

"Hello?" My mom answered.

"Yeah, Mum?"

"Yes, dear? Are you ready for me to pick you up?"

"I wanted to actually stay for the rest of the week," I said, scratching my head nervously.

There was a few seconds of silence. . .

"But Honey, I wanted to help you pick out your dress this week - we had it all planned out, I don't understand-"

"Can you just like," I sighed. "Send me the. . . money or something? Or Alexis's brother can drive me there to pick up my clothes with the money?"

"Honey, what happened over there? You were so excited on going to the designers to pick up your dress," She said, hoping I'd change my mind.

I dug my hair back. I was excited, but not as excited as Alexis and her mom taking me instead. It would be more fun.

"I'm, sorry mom . . . " I said in a guilted tone.

My mom inhaled deeply and let go. "It's okay, Honey. You can come later on tonight to pick up your clothes and the money. But I'm leaving for work at ten-thirty."

"Okay. Sounds great," I said, grinning. "Okay, thanks mom. Love- Love you too, okay, . . . Alright. Sure thing. Buh-Bye," Then I hung up.

There, Nosey Rosy and Nosey Mosey stood on each side of me.

Alexis leaning on my left, Logan on my right. "What she say?" They said in unison.

I nodded and bit my lip. "She said yeah."

They smiled, then Alexis grabbed my hand and rushed me upstairs. I stumbled on ever two steps, wondering where she was taking me.

"Okay, so where are you taking me?"

"Online shopping. Kay's Dresses has a online boutique. If we reserve now, we won't miss out on the good dresses once we get there." She said quickly.

We reached her room and she opened her laptop. From in front, she clicked and clacked the keys for a few minutes in focus.

"There," She said, now twisting the laptop to face me. The dress was very pretty, and purple. One of my favorite colors.

"That's hot," I said in daze.

"I know right? I might want that one," Alexis said thinking.

"No, I might want it," I said chuckling but serious. "Plus they probably won't have it i your size anyway," I said, looking on the screen.

"I'm just one freaking size bigger than you, and you assume I'm fat? Meanie!"

I laughed with her.

We were talking until I felt a light touch slowly move up my waist. The touch got larger, and more shapely. It was Logan, standing behind me while I sat on the bed.

I turned and he leaned in for a kiss. Until a pillow was thrown into his face. He froze, his face blank.

Alexis bursted into tears of laughter on the bed.
