The hot morning air of California swam in thru April's open window, the annoying sound of her alarm buzzing and a clearly frustrated April tossing in her full size bed.
"April...you're damn alarm has been ringing for ten minutes now...APRIL TURN IT OFF!!!"Dan yelled from his room across the hall " April... Damnit" he said jumping out of this bed an walking to her room. " April"
"What, what I'm up"she said sitting up quickly
"You're alarm woke me up April it's Friday I'd like to sleep in"
"I'm sorry I know you do but I just wanted too...wait it's Friday Daniel our flight leaves in three hours and we haven't even packed"
"Well so much for sleeping in..I'll start packing"
"You'll have five hours to sleep on the plane go now start packing. Remember pack warm it's fall in Pennsylvania like really fall not Cali fall"
"Yeah yeah whatever" he said walking to his room. April quickly jumped up an grabbed her suitcase putting on music at the same time. April began running around her room throwing things in her suitcase. An hour and a half later both April an Daniel were completely packed yet April continued to run around. "April why are you still running around you're completely packed?"
"I know but I need to look good like really good my ex is coming"
"Wait April are you using me to piss off Norman?"
"No I'm using you to empress my family his jealousy is just a bonus"
"I'm feeling completely attacked right now"
"I worry about you"
"You should be worried about Norman I mean jealousy might kill him"
"Do you honestly think you can make him that jealous?"
"Yea I do believe this I also believe that you're running out of time to get ready"
"Right"she said pulling off her nightgown landing in her black lace bra and underwear.
"Umm...April I'm right here you could have told me to leave"
"No I need you here"

"I need you to tell me what I look hot in within reason of course"
"Well let me get in my jealous but I want to show off boyfriend mode....okay I'm ready that lace is great for when we're alone but never wear it in public"

"Okay then"she walks back slipping into a long pearl dress "what about this one?""No not sluty enough it's too loose"
"Okay this is my final offer"she walked away to a red dress that hung at the back of her closet. She slipped out of the long dress and put on the tight body hugging dress.

"Wow you look....wow""Really?"
