"Halston has more decorations!" Alexa runs in the backyard where Kendall and I are, giving us a bag of decorations. 

"Good. And Carlos?" I ask frantically.

"Just texted me that...he and Logan are coming back home and so are Aleena and Halston! They can't hold them off any longer!" James panicks.

"But we haven't even finished yet!" I exclaim.

"Don't worry, Val, we're almost done!" Kendall says.

"Not exactly! We still gotta put that last set of decorations on that part of the backyard, and if you haven't noticed, Kendall, that set is huge!" I shout.

"Then James and I will do it. Let the guys handle that huge set, and you and Alexa better get changed into your dresses while we're on it. Guys change quickly, so you better get to it," he reeminds.

"Fine. Thanks Kendall," I kiss him in the cheek, and Alexa and I run back to the house.

We've been working on the decorations for five long hours, and the event has to start very soon because they're coming home. I guess once Halston was running back to the mall, Aleena caught her, and she has no choice but to come home. Great. This is just great. Note the sarcasm. Logan and Carlos are on their way back, and boys can walk quickly, so we better hurry. Alexa has her dress ready in my room/ She went home earlier to take it.

We both decide that she changes in the bathroom as I change in my room. She takes her dress and walks out. I lock the door and start stripping off my clothes. Then, I take my purple dress and put it on. The dress is strapless and it's literally shining. It reaches just below the knees. I take a look at myself in the mirror, and not to be vain, I look good. I smile at myself. My thoughts are interrupted by a knock on the door. It must be Alexa. I open the door and see Alexa wearing a green dress that has two sleeves that reach halfway to the elbow. The dress is made of silk, and it ends also ends right below the knees. She looks beautiful, more than she already is! I never though that would be possible. 

"Wow. You look amazing!" I compliment.

"You do too! where'd you get that dress?" she asks.

"I got it back at Kansas," I smile.

"Wow. Kansas got style!" she laughs.

I laugh along with her, and we start doing our hair. We both look at ourselve in the mirror, deciding on what to do with our hair. Suddenly, I get an idea of what I'm gonna do. I take a ponytail and take a large amount of my hair and tie it in the back, leaving another part flowing down. Just a simple look, but it totally matches my outfit. Alexa smiles as she grabs a ponytail, and she starts fishtail braiding her blonde hair to the side.

"Nice," I say.

"Same. Here hold on," she replies.

She takes a comb and combs the bottom part of my hair. Once she finishes, I thank her. We take our shoes from the side of the door. Alexa's shoes are blue. They're cute wedges that she reallty seems to rock. My shoes are simple pink flats that look really good with my dress. We both smile at each other and link our arms, walking out of the room. Once we open the door, we see Halston panting hard. 

"Carlos is downstairs with Logan. Aleena's...in the...front yard...standing there with a bored mind. We gotta hurry up or her head explodes from boredom!" Halston informs. "Cute dresses by the way!"

"Thanks! Well you gotta change quickly! Alexa and I aren't wearing makeup, so you shouldn't too. Girls' theme is no makeup. Boys' theme is formally not formal if you know what we mean," Alexa tells her.

"Got it," Halston smiles as she walks in my room to change.

"I'll go take care of Aleena," I call.
