What Love Does Is Up To You..

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

In our haste to get home, we arrived at the front of my gate at 6:50pm. Time is key, every girl needs to take their time to glam up.

"I call the shower!" Al yelled as she shoved past me and swung the door open.

To our dismay, my mother stood, cross-armed, at the foot of the stairs blocking our way.

"Where have you been? Your dance starts at 8pm sharp, your dates will be here by quatr-"my mom started to list the events leading up to Prom when I cut her short.

"Mom, we're sorry, we got caught up at the Mall. We'll be ready, " I sealed the promise with a kiss on her cheek as i squeezed my plump size past her and up the stairs.

Al and Haley followed behind me.

As we reached my bedroom i took a deep breath before entering. Al was impatient and cut my breath in half.

"Move, woman, I have tons to do!" she wailed impatiently, usually by "tons" she means "wash my hair, shave my legs, scrub my body with soap that smells as good and as sweet as perfume that will have the bees buzzing" so I shifted to the side, unnecessarily, since her supermodel figure could slip past me without my needing to move.

I braced myself for disappointment. Haley had already plopped herself on my bed with the tin of nail polish ready to manicure her nails. I walked in trying not to look around my room, Haley sensed this.

"Angel face, he's a jerk and Jos is a bitch for asking him to Prom," she said, ushering me towards the bed.

"Haylz, maybe she didn't know..."

"Don't be so naïve, she hates you, boo!Ever since you took her first kindergarten crush from her. She knew you had asked Jordan to prom and she also knew that he's easy enough to steal. Just take the pictures down, and tonight we will find you a life-size poster of your new hottie!" she said with a smile that made me realize her charm. Boys swoon over my Brunette Barbie of a friend. Maybe she was right, I could find a new guy to crush on couldn't I?

I walked around my room peeling off my photos of Jordan.. By the time I had yanked the last photo off the wall Allison emerged from the bathroom with a towel around her body, her gorgeous black and brown locks cascaded down her back like a waterfall. Hayley and Allison could pass for sisters, their similarities were astounding. Similar tanned skin, Dark brown hair that was so long that one winter, they plaited their hair into one plait that could wrap around the both of them as a scarf. Although Al has the most beautiful grey eyes I've ever come across, she wears blue contacts. She thinks that they suit her more and Haley has bright green eyes. I could not be more different. I resemble a vampire from one of those sappy love stories; platinum blonde hair, pale white skin, hazel eyes, plush pink lips though my shape is on the round side, which I've accepted, I don't think there's much wrong with me.

"Chop chop, slick," Al hollered," you need to get ready!
