Picture of Axel, Natalie, Heather, <<<<<<
I'm pacing back and fourth in my room anxiously.
"You should just open it" suggested Holly who is seated on my bed. I turn to glare at her. She raises her hands backing off. I snap my fingers and Brooklyn hands me a handkerchief. I wipe my forehead. I'm pacing across my room in only my under garments. Today is the day of Heather's party and Natalie dropped off my dress an hour ago. It's in a silver box tied with a light pink ribbon. I called Jaime, Holly and Brooklyn immediately.
"What if I don't like it? What if it's so ugly and I have to wear it because I don't want to hurt Natalie's feelings and everyone laughs at me because I came in with an ugly dress that my brothers girlfriend made" I say in one breath.
"What if it's not" Jaime points out. "Your not going to know until you open it" I chew on my bottom lip considering if I should listen to her or kick her out. Of course I know I have to open it to know if its Gucci or not. I'm just scared if I'll like it. Natalie told me three days ago that the dress will be Royal blue. I told Nickolaus and he already got his suit. He's going to be here to pick me up in two hours. I nod my head. Jaime let's go of her breath. She must've thought I'll blow up in her face like a ticking bomb. Well... She was fifty percent right.
I motion for the box. Holly grabs it and hands it to me. I lay it on my lap carefully and slowly pull on the ribbon and it unravels. I pry open the lid and lift it. It's neatly folded inside the box. I peer at the girls who have anxious looks on their faces. I oh so slowly lift up the dress.
Wow....wow. That's the first thing that comes to my mind when I see the dress. It's so elegant, and daring. It's so my style. "Try it on" whispers Brooklyn with wide eyes. I hand the dress to Jaime. She helps me in it, zipping it up in the back. I smile at her in the mirrors reflection. She's taken back by my smile and gently returns it.
The top of the dress is strapless. It's not Royal blue but powder blue. At the waist there's a thin silver bow belt. The waist down is like a flow. The front stops right above my knee, the back stops right before it hits the floor. It's so beautiful. It looks so...Prada.
"You look drop dead gorgeous" Holly compliments. I do a spin. I love it. Wow, Natalie has a great talent. She must've worked day and night. I curled my hair and It cascades down my back in beautiful waves. My light brown highlights glow under the lights.
"You just need one more thing" Brooklyn says getting up. She hurries to my vanity and picks up my blue jewel hair clip. She comes to my side. She grabs a side of my hair and carefully pins it. The blue diamonds glistens. I smile wide at my reflection.
"Okay let's get you girls ready" I say excitedly. They giggle running to get their dresses.

"Perfect" I finish Jaime's hair. I did her hair in a elegant bun. I let her bangs down the side of her face curled. I pin in a couple of pearls in her twists trailing them all the way to her bun. She checks it out and gasp.
"It's gorgeous, your really good at this Evangeline" I smirk.
Jaime's the only one in my group of friends who call me by my first name.
"I know" I reply. She smiles shaking her head. She stands up in her gray gown. Brooklyn is wearing a white gown that goes perfectly with her golden hair. I straightened her hair and put a white orchid behind her ear.
Holly has a tight black dress that stops a few inches above her knees. I curled her long maroon hair and put a black headband with small diamonds.
