Mr. Summer's Suprise

Chapter 2.

Once Melanie left I went downstairs in search of my mom. I just realized I agreed to go without even asking her permission first. " Mom, do you mind if I go over Melanie's tonight and have a sleep over?" "Not at all sweet heart.  Just make sure you call me before you go to sleep." Okay mom I promise. I gave her a kiss on the cheek and told her I loved her before going upstairs and packing an over night bag. I couldn't have Mel meet me here and us get ready. My mom would wonder why I was so dressed up for a sleep over. You see my mom is pretty protective of my brother Max and I. It's gotten alot worse ever since our dad passed away from leukemia when I was a freshmen in high school. I was 14 at the time and it was really hard on me. My brother Max took it the hardest though. He was only 7 at the time and he and my dad were more than just father and son, they were best friends. It took alot of therapy but eventually we all learned to deal with his passing. My mom doesn't like to let Max or I breathe, Or so it feels sometimes. I think she is so over barring because she is afraid of loosing us too. The only time we get to ourselves is when we're at school or mom is working. She is a physical therapist at the local rehabilitation center in town. It's a pretty decent job, but I know my mom still struggles financially.  Melanie on the other hand barely sees her parents. They are pretty well off financially. They're these big shot political lawyers. They travel quite alot. So most of the time Mel has the house to herself. No parents, no rules, and all the money in the world to spend the way she likes. I used to envy her for that, but eventually I figured out even though Mel pretends to be happy she's truly not. She's lonely. I think she feels abandoned by her own parents, and I couldn't imagine how hurt she feels. I guess my mom being so over protective isn't so bad after all. I guess in a way we're lucky to have her around everyday. Melanie has an older brother Steve. He's 21 and he goes to the local campus in town, which is also where he lives. He does occasionally stop by and check up on Mel though. At least she has someone that's there for her family wise. I text Mel when I was on the way to her house. She only lives a couple blocks away so I declined her ride and decided to walk.
Once I reached Mel's mansion ( it's pretty much the size of one) I text her that I was outside and she came down to let me in. We ran upstairs and decided to get ready for our big night. I took a shower and shaved before brushing my teeth and heading into Mel's bed room. " Andie I'm going to grab a quick shower. I put your dress on my bed.When I get out prepare to become even more beautiful my sexy bestie." I rolled my eyes before blow drying my hair and looking at the dress Mel had picked out for me. It really was a beautiful dress. It was silver with sequins all over it. It came up mid thigh and didn't swoop down too far which I was eternally greatful for. She had picked out a pair of black high heels with a thick heel to top it off.
I quickly dressed. As soon as I had my dress pulled up Mel came out of the bathroom in her pink fluffy robe. She zipped my dress before ordering me to sit so she can do my hair and makeup. She straightened my already straight hair and added loose waves. My long blonde hair flowed beautifully down past my shoulders. She didn't go crazy on my make up. She added a little liner and a light eye shadow along with some mascara that really made my eye lashes look long. When she was just about finished, she added a glossy red to my lips. When I looked in the mirror I was shocked. She really did make me look beautiful. I thanked Melanie before offering to do her hair and make up as well. Once I finished straightening her hair, I did a smokey eye shadow. I finished the rest of her make up as Mel  slipped on her two piece skirt set. It was black and gold with an o neckline, and it sparkled when the light hit it. She looked fabulous. " Mel you look incredibly hot!" She returned the compliment to me after she added how sexy and "bone" worthy I was. Sometimes this girl killed me with the things that came out of her mouth. She definitely has a way with words. We looked at our phones and saw it was quarter till 8. We had to leave now to be there and in the club by 9:00. On the way I asked Melanie how we were getting in. We are only 17 year old girls after all. She told me her brother Steve was working tonight and he put a good word in with his new friend and bouncer Jerry to let us in. " Hey this is perfect girl! My brother made sure we're getting in and he's bartending. We're in the clear babe. We will get as many drinks as we want without even being carded." I shook my head before leaning my head back and relaxing for the 20 min ride to the club.

When we arrived at Club Palm we walked up to the long line and stood waiting impatiently. After standing in the line for nearly a half hour we made our way to the bouncer. His shirt read Jerry and I was relieved he was the one at the door when we arrived. Melanie told him our names and who her brother was before he unclipped the rope that separated us from the loud music and alcohol inside. I held my breathe as we made our way through the front entrance. This is it I thought to myself. Time to loosed up Andie and have some fun. I grabbed Mel's hand for reassurance. She gave it a tight squeeze and gave me a sideways smile before we started descending our way down the stairs into the groups of people sweating, dancing, making out and drinking. I couldn't help but think to myself, " What were you thinking Andie?" And that's how my night started. Already second guessing myself and I haven't even had a drink yet. "This is going to be a long night."
