Jesella

chapter three

"Jesella! Wake up! Wake the hell up!" Someone yelled shaking me to death.

"What do you want?" I groaned.

"There's a dance in a couple of hours and you have to come! Please!" Silver was still shaking me.

"A dance? What dance?"

"A friend of mine is having a dance party for his birthday and you're going!" She pulled me up out of bed.

"Then you must be very ridiculous because your mother would never ever let me go outside. I'm surprised she let me go when you and Athena arrived when I had to grab your bags from the car."

"Look, you had enough drama for the past week. You need a good break so I am taking you out to that dance. Whether my mother likes it or not but follow me!" She walked downstairs with me following behind.

We walked all the way to Caroline's room and the both of us barged right in. Caroline snapped her head towards Silvers direction.

The look on my stepmothers face made me wanna zoom right out of the room. She looked creepy and scary, her hair was a complete mess.

"Silver? What do you want?"

"I came to tell you that Jesella is coming with me to a dance in a few hours."

"No she is not!"

"I didn't ask you mother I simply told you! Jesella deserves a good break so I'm taking her to this dance whether you like it or not!"

Caroline looked at me up and down with disgust. "Fine. How about we all go?" She smirked.

"You are crazy! You are not coming!" Silver became angry.

"Do not tell me what I can and cannot do! Be glad I'm letting you even take her out at all! I'm coming and so is everyone else and that is final!"

"Fine but stay away from Jesella when we leave." Silver pulled me out of the room and dragged me all the way back up into the attic.

I was really surprised. I didn't think Caroline would let me go to the dance. But I am very blessed that she is letting me. For the first time in four years I can finally experience what it feels like to be out in the world.

I wanna feel the coldness of the breeze, smell the air knowing that winter is here.

I sat down on my couch while Silver was going through my clothes like crazy. Shirts, shorts and other clothes were flying all over the place. After a few minutes went by she stood up and looked frustrated.

"Since I can't find anything for you for the dance, you can borrow a dress from me. I'll be right back." She speeded downstairs and came back up a minute later.

"Here you go." She handed me a white dress.

The dress was short and strapless, it was longer in the back then it was in front. The skirt of it had little ruffles, the top of it was sparkled a little and made it pretty. I had to say that she had good taste in style, better style then me.

"How much was that dress?" I asked.

"Oh this was two hundred dollars but it was no biggie when I got it."

"I can't even afford myself anything at all. The dress is very beautiful, you have good taste."

"Aw thank you so much babe." She smiled and handed me the dress. "I don't have heels that match this dress though." She sat on a stool.

"I think I do." I went behind the couch and opened up a small wooden door that was connected to the wall. "These should do, right?" I showed her the heels and her eyes widened.
