Barely Friends (Unlikely Friends sequel)

Chapter 25- Mason

Mason:) :wt time should i pick you up?

I smiled. Alli looked at me.

"Oh My Gosh Phia. Just stop already you two have been like this for what, 2 months? Like, when you told me he kissed you in the pool three months ago, I thought you were going to say he was horrible and you would never end up with him. I've never been so wrong."

I rolled my eyes.

Me: 5-is mayb? the party starts at 7:30. And we won't have to rush thru dinner

Mason:) : ok, 5 it is then

I put my phone back in my purse, and looked for my size in the shirt I wanted.

"Alli, can you help me find a size 4 in this shirt?" I held it up. It was a purple halter top with a deep 'V' cut into the back of it.

"Sure thing, Can you also keep an eye out for that red strapless shirt I want. Same size."

I nodded my head.

"Found it!" Alli called out a few minutes later.

"Great, now help me find my shirt." I mumbled.

"I'm talking about yours!"

"Ohmygosh!" Thank you so much! Isn't this what you were looking for?" I picked up a red shirt from the end of a rack.

"Yessss! What pants should I wear with it? I was thinking either my brown skirt that my mum gave me for Christmas or my khaki shorts."

"I would wear the khaki shorts, they're cute and I love red and khaki together. I'm wearing my dark wash jean shorts that have the roll at the bottom."

"The ones from Brandy Melville?"

"Yea."

"Aren't they really short?"

"Maybe..." I smirked.

"Ohhhh. I see.." Alli winked.

"Alright, let's buy this and get out." I laughed and linked arms with Alli as we walked to the checkout area.

*~*~*~*~*~*Later that night.~*~*~*~*~*~

I walked out of Alli's bathrom and into her room.

"How do I look?" I posed.

Alli looked shocked. "You look amazing!"

"You think?"

"I know! The shirt and those shorts are perfect. Plus your legs look SUPER long!"

I inspected myself in the mirror more. My purple halter top was loose and came back in at the bottom which had a band. My shorts were dark denim that rolled at the bottom and stopped right At my butt. Alli was right, my legs looked extremely long and toned with the black pumps I was wearing. I curled my hair and my makeup was a dark smokey eye with sparkly pink lip gloss that tasted like strawberry.

I caught myself smiling because I actually looked really nice.

"Anyway, enough about myself. Alli, you look amazing too!" I had her stand in front of the mirror now.

She wore the red shirt that she bought today with the khaki shorts, as I suggested. Her hair was up in a bow and her makeup was a smokey eye like mine. She wore the same shoes as me, but her's were a sleek black.

"Thank's BB." She smiled and grabbed her wrist let.

"It's quarter of five. Shouldn't Mason be at your house soon?"

I looked at my phone. "Oh yea, thank's for getting ready with my Als." I walked over to her, air kissed her cheek and quickly walked out her room and down the steps.

I opened the door and found myself facing a surprised Cody.

"Er, um. Hey." Cody didn't move from the doorway.

I couldn't look him in the eyes. "Hey."

"So. how have you been?" Cody kept looking around, like he felt uncomfortable.

"Um, pretty good. How abou-"

"I've actually been seeing someone." He quickly but in.

I raised an eyebrow. "Oh really? That's.....go-ood. I. I have been too actually."

"Oh? That's nice."

I finally looked up at him. He looked nervous and confused. Exactly how I felt.

We stood there in silence for a few minutes. You could have cut the awkwardness with a knife.

A black Hummer pulled into my driveway the I immediately noticed was Mason's.

"Well,I gotta go." I pushed past him and quickly walked to Mason's car. I got in the passenger seat. He leaned over and kissed me, which took my by surprise.

"Hey." I smiled and buckled my seat belt.

"Hey. You look really nice." Mason turned the car around and drove down the driveway. I could see Cody in the side mirror. He was staring at us, shocked. I couldn't help but to smirk.

"Thanks. So where exactly are we going?" I played with the radio until I found a station that I liked.

"You know that seafood place on the corner?"

"YES! I love that place!" I lit up basically at the thought of going there.

"Well, we're going to the hibachi grille next to it." Mason chuckled.

"Oh."I laughed. "That's fine. Seafood is too overrated anyway."

"Sure." Mason chuckled again and rolled his eyes.
