Black Winter[Completed]

Chapter 15

I stare at myself in the mirror, unable to believe that the woman staring back is actually me. I gingerly touch the tendrils of hair framing my face, a slow smile spreading across my face. My dress is black with intricate embellishment on sheer lace at the top. The back is bare, covered in lace with beautiful work too. My hair is up in a complicated yet slightly messy bun, tendrils of hair framing my face to soften the look. My makeup is natural with a dark red lipstick to complete the look.

My mum walks into the room, Aunt Kaley and Belle behind her. She spots me and gasps, holding back tears. 

"Oh, sweetie you look gorgeous." Aunt Kaley and Belle share her opinion exclaiming how I'll be the belle of the ball. Scoffing, I say"I seriously doubt that. The guys won't be able to keep their hands off you girls." and it's true. My mum is dressed in a dark blue gown with off the shoulder sleeves while Aunt Kaley is wearing a dark green dress with a one shoulder strap. Belle looks absolutely ethereal in a baby pink gown with a sweetheart neckline and a sexy slit up one thigh. 

"The boys are waiting downstairs for us."my mum says. I nod clasping on a pair of diamond earrings and a diamond bracelet.

"Us four adults will riding in one limo while you kids will be in another." Aunt Kaley says to me and Belle. We nod with the arrangement. My mum and Aunt Kaley walk down first and I can only imagine my dad's and Uncle Jack's starstruck expressions.
