I parked Cindie in Lexy’s driveway a few minutes later. I turned off the engine then turned to her and rose an eyebrow. “You sure about this?” I asked, I silently hoped she’d say no. We would go inside, we could dress in sweat pants or something and watch non-stop Teen Wolf until we fall asleep. But I knew she wasn’t going to say no when she slowly tuned her head; giving me a ‘what the fuck do you think?’ look. I smiled and rolled my eyes. “I’ll take that as a yes…” I murmured, she nodded and hopped out; seeming satisfied with my answer.

I sighed and rolled my eyes at her, she’s just lucky I love her so much otherwise I wouldn’t be going through with this. I took a deep breath then took my keys out of the ignition and climbed out of Cindie. I followed closely behind Lex as she walked up the store walk way and unlock the door.

“After you, bitch.” She said, gesturing for me to go ahead of her while grinning; I smiled and laughed at her.

“Thanks hoe.” I told her, she stifled a giggle as she followed me inside; after she closed the door her expression turned serious.

“Alright bro, this is how it’s gonna go down. I planned this very precisely in the car.” She said, I just sent her a ‘WTF’ look and rose my brow.

“You did?” I asked in confusion, she only looked at me; expression still deadly serious.

“Yes, yes I did.” She told me, I only laughed.

“That’s so typical of you, dude.” Lex smiled like a proud parent of an all A student at a PTA meeting.

“I know. So anyways, we’re gonna get ready. Dress uberly hot! Like skin tight hot, and I was thinking we could rep like.. leather jackets.” She explained, I pondered this information for a few seconds before nodding my head in agreement.

“Sounds good, what about our hair?” I asked. I didn’t know why Lex wanted me to ‘dress skin tight hot’, it was only me, her, and Justin; maybe Chris or Connor as the DD but that’s it… right?

“Straight, definitely.” Lex’s voice interrupted my thoughts, I only smiled and nodded again.

“And our make-up?” I asked, only to stop myself from asking the one important question on my mind; is Taylor going to be there? Alexis paused, thinking about the make-up question before shrugging.

“I dunno, depends on what colors we’re wearing.” I smiled then glanced upstairs toward her bedroom.

“Alright, should we go get ready now?”

“Well duh!”

We both headed up stairs to Lex’s bedroom, since it was the master it had a connecting bathroom; perfect to get ready in.

“Alright bro, I’m gonna search through my closet and see what I can pull together.” I said.

“Alrightyyyy.”

“What’re you gonna do first?” I asked curiously, leaning against her bedroom door frame.

“Shower.” She said simply, I furrowed my brows and sent her a ‘really’ look.

“You’re just gonna sweat from dancing, anyways though.” She only shrugged.

“Yeah, but I feel gross right now… I haven’t showered in two days.”

“Oh my God, bro. Why?” I made a disgusted face and stuck out my tongue, she placed her hands on her narrow hips and shot me a look.

“Cause I’ve been extremely busy running around every which way, and I got super hung over. And I slept… sorry!” She explained, I smiled and playfully rolled my eyes then shook my head.

“Okay, go shower. You smell anyways.” I told her.

“Gee, thanks.” Lex gave a short laugh then headed into her bathroom.

“No problem!” I called, I walked to my own bedroom then. My Alakan Husky’s head popped up the moment I turned on the light. “Hey girl!” I greeted as Shasta hopped off the bed and trotted over, I gave her a quick pet then turned to my closet. I scanned my closet contents then picked out black American Eagle skinnies, a black sequin top that showed my mid riff, and finally a red leather jacket.

“Hope Lexy likes.” I murmured, I quickly walked back to her room; hearing the shower running I laid my outfit on her bed, just as I was thinking if I should have accessories to with it I heard a phone vibrate. Instinctly I pulled out my Droid Razor, there was no new messages. Looking around I spotted Lexy’s iPhone on the nightstand, I picked it up and looked at the message.

Hey babe, I’ll b on my way over in 10. (;

I smiled and rolled my eyes, Justin, naturally I thought. “Broooo! Justin texted!” I called out to Lex.

“What did he say?”

“He said, he’ll be on his way over in ten!”

“Ask him if he’s meeting with Taylor!” My head swiveled in the direction of the bathroom.

“WHAT?! Taylor’s coming too?!” I angrily squealed, I should’ve known she’d pull something like this; I was just stupid not to ask about it earlyier.

“Yeah! That’s why I told you to dress uber hot!” Lex called, I sighed angrily. I closed my eyes, pursed my lips and jammed my fists onto my hips. I took a deep breath, counted to ten then opened my eyes.

“I’ll get you for this Alexis Jordan.” I grumbled, quietly raging to myself; she so should’ve told me Taylor was coming. I relaxed when I realized I couldn’t blame her, I know everything about her… whereas I still have things to tell her myself. The worst thengs Lexy knows about me is: I used to belong in a New York gang, and I used to cut myself.

“Bro! could you text Jay back for me?” I sighed and posed my thumbs over the key board.

“What do you want me to say?” I asked annoyed.

“Say, okay, see you soon.” I quickly typed as she asked and was about to hit send until she added. “Oh and tell him I love him too.”

“I’m not doing that!” I screamed.

“C’mon brooooo! I’d do it for you!” She whined, I sighed exasperated.

“Fineeee. I’m only doing this cause I love you, dude.”

“Love you tooooooooo!” I only laughed.

“Hurry up and get out of the shower.”

“Okayyy!”

A few seconds later she came into the room wrapped in a towel and dripping wet. She went to her closet and scanned its contents. “Bro?” her head turned to look at me.

“Hm?” I gestured to my clubbing outfit.

“This is what I’m wearing.” I said, I watched her expression carefully; hoping she approved, her face brightened after a quick glance.

“Ooh, I like…” she marveled, nodding in approval; I sighed in relief, success.

“I thought you would.” I said grinning. “What are you wearing?” I asked, she let out a humming noise then shrugged before turning back to her closet.

“I dunno, I’ll find something..” She murmured, I just nodded knowing she’d be looking hotter than me… which wasn’t that hard to pull off, so I was confident Justin wouldn’t take his eyes off her… and neither will every guy at the club.

“Alrighty, I’m going to get dressed.” I informed her, snatching my clothes up and turning toward the now steam free bathroom.

“Mkay.” Alexis murmured, still scanning her closet contents.
