"Where'd you two go?' Courtney asked, plopping down on the couch beside me.
"We went up to Dazzi's Diner." I replied.
"He make you try the burgers?" she asked, smiling.
"Yes!"
She laughed.
"Yeah, they're pretty good."
Courtney lay back on my bed and sighed.
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"It's my boyfriend."
"What happened?'
She turned her head to look at me, stood up, and then walked over to the door and closed it.
"He's gay."
"Damn."
"Right. What the fuck am I supposed to do with a gay boyfriend?"
"Did he not know he was gay when you started going out?"
"Nope. He said he didn't start looking at guys sexually until about a month ago. He said he was trying to figure out a way to tell me."
"Shit. You guys broke up right?"
"Duh. But now I'm single and lonely all over again."
"You'll find somebody else."
"Yeah yeah yeah. You said you're 16 right?'
"Yeah."
"There's this little stupid teen club in town that everybody goes to. My friend works the door. I could get you in."
"Yeah, we can go. Just not tonight though. I need some rest. Tomorrow night?"
"That's when we were gonna go. I hear Friday nights are the best. Get some rest. We'll go shopping tomorrow afternoon to find the perfect outfit for you to wear."
"I don-.." she lifted her to silence me.
"Nope. We're going shopping. No if, ands, or buts. Goodnight Angelica."
"Goodnight."
"I like this one." I said, fingering the fabric around my waist.
The dress I had on was a black and white Michael Kors Striped Paneled dress.
"That's the one." Courtney replied.
We bought the dress and then walked across the strip to Coldstone's.
"Now wasn't that fun?" Courtney asked, licking her spoon.
"Yeah. Shopping with you is pretty fun."
She grinned.
"Alright. We can eat our ice cream on the way back. Let's get back home."
The preparation for tonight was long and tiring.
"Are you done?" I asked Courtney.
"Almost. Your hair is rather stubborn." she replied.
There was a knock on the door.
"It's Daniel." he said from the other side of the door.
"No go away. Nobody can see anything untill we're finished. I'll let you know."
Daniel mumbled something under his breath and then walked away.
An hour later, Courtney was finally done with me. I stared at myself in the mirror.
