Wild Romance [DISCONTINUED]

3: Party Time

“I’m still not 100% sure what to wear!” Rachel said as she sat down on my bed next to me.

“Just look through some of my clothes, we’re the same size. I'm pretty certain you’ll find something to wear.” I replied with a smile. I knew that she wanted to borrow my clothes for tonight’s party.

“Thanks!” she squealed before jumping back up and rummaging through my wardrobe. “What are you wearing? I don’t want to end up matching or anything,” she pointed out whilst moving hangers around and picking out a few tops.

“Nothing over the top. It’s just a small house party. I might end up wearing jeans,” I shrugged.

“No way! I'm not letting you out of the house dressed casually,” she said with distaste. I arched a brow at her and she chucked a few of my clothes at me.

“Try some of those on and I’ll decide what will look good for tonight,” as she said this a few more items of material flew into my face. I did what she said whilst she shook her head several times to each top I put on.

“What’s wrong with my clothes?” I asked with a pout.

“Here, try this one,” she handed me over a black laced top. It was strappy and sadly showed a bit of cleavage.

Why did I even buy this? I asked myself.

As soon as it was on my body Anita jumped up and down, clapping her hands. “Perfect!”

I made a face at her, “I'm not sure...I think this is way too over-the-top” I said in an unsure tone.

“You’re wearing it. End of story.” She demanded.

Ah well, no use arguing with the boss I thought.

“I think these high waisted shorts will look great with that top” she added whilst handing me over the shorts. I wriggled into them, buttoning them up and staring into the mirror.

Rachel’s right, this outfit does look good. I still think it’s a bit much though.

“Now, it’s my turn.” she said before trying on loads of clothes. “Do you reckon Derek will notice me if I wear this?” she asked before twirling around in front of me so that I could see what she was wearing. She was wearing one of my Playsuits and a pair of mid high heels.

“I think more than one guy will notice you, Rachel” I complimented.

“Yeah, but will he notice?” she didn’t care about anyone else so I played along.

“He’ll love it” I said enthusiastically.

“That’s the idea” she giggled.

I decided against wearing heels, so I settled for my low top converse shoes. It toned down my outfit a little and made me look slightly casual, which is what I was going for. Rachel chose not to comment which suited me fine. Tonight’s party was going to start a bit early because it was on a school night and we’d probably only have about four hours of fun, so Rachel and I were given a ride by my dad at around 6 and dropped off at Trina’s house ten minutes later.

Trina opened the door, a drink already in her hand and a wide grin on her face. “Hey girls! Come in! The party has officially started!” she beamed, ushering us into her house.

The party had indeed started, music was turned up even louder than what it was before and everyone was crowded in each room, standing or dancing. There were some of Derek’s friends standing about and I spotted John in the corner of the kitchen having an arm wrestling match with another guy. Rachel quickly ran over to watch and cheer on Derek. I decided to greet the rest of the gang but they were all separated off into other groups, chatting with guys.
