My Mute Mate

Ch. 28

Their outfits in this order from left to right, Trinidee, Dove, and Sym.^^

"I feel accomplished that we talked you out of dresses and skirts." Sym laughs and Trinidee punches her arm.

"You're lucky those sweaters were actually cute." Trinidee tries to act mad but she's grinning from ear to ear.

"Are you guys sure I look good enough in mine? I haven't seen Calum in weeks and he's been on California with all those pretty girls in bathing suits and tanned skin who're probably throwing themselves at him off stage.." Trinidee cuts Sym off by placing her hand over her mouth.

"Girl, you're his literal soulmate. He's probably freaking out just as much as you are. I'm sure he misses you. Also, yes, you do look crazy good in yours." Trinidee gives some wise words of encouragement and Sym nods. I watch their conversation quietly, just enjoying the moment.

"So Dove, me and Sym we're talking about how we should all meet up in your room to get ready." Trinidee gives me a sweet smile.

'Why my room? Masons always in my room.' I furrow my eyebrows and Sym laughs.

"Don't worry about that silly. I told Jaxon and Leo that they need to take them out 'for their birthday' to an amusement park." Sym smiles and I nod.

'Okay then. We'll meet in my room.' We climb into the car and start our way home.

~Time Skip To Friday~

Trinidee pokes and prods at my eyelids relentlessly to give me the 'perfect smokey cat eye' for the party, matched up with a light pink lipstick. Sym has light gray eyeshadow and a dark plum lipstick, while Trinidee has a smokey eye and lip gloss.

Trinidee finally steps back and admires her work happily, seeming contented with her attack on my face.

I stand up, stretching my legs, only to discover my right leg has fallen fast asleep. I trip and fall onto my face. They both start laughing at me as I get up, rubbing my nose.

"Cmon clumsy. We're gonna be late." Sym smiles at me and I shoot her a glare.

"Shut up. Let's just get going if ya'll are done laughing." I snap playfully and they just laugh harder. I smile and shake my head. They are truly ridiculous.

I walk out of the room without them but they soon catch up after they finally stopped laughing. I almost wish that they had kept laughing because the quiet afterwards left me to my anxious thoughts alone.

What if something goes wrong? What if Blake somehow gets me alone and finishes the job on my throat? What if some creep hits on me and I cant say no? What if I make a total mess of myself and Mason and Rose get mad at me and everything goes to hell? A huge knot forms in my stomach.

"Yknow guys I'm not so sure I wa-"

"We're here!" Sym exclaims from the front and my stomach drops, knot and all. "Sorry Dove, what were you saying?" She turns back and gives me an award winning smile. I'd hate to ruin their fun. I simply smile and shake my head. Her eyebrows furrow.

"Are you sure?" I nod, please Sym stop asking before I change my mind. I've never been to an actual party before. I usually just set up and hide in my room.

"Yo are we going or what? We're gonna be late to our best friends party." Trinidee calls from the walk way. Okay. Go time Dove. Just be thankful you're not in heels like they are. I get out of the car and take a deep breath. I walk up the way with the girls chattering excitedly in front of me.
