Just A Girl Thing

Chapter 19

(Brinna's POV)

We're all at Kendall's house. I can tell that Liz is feeling a bit awkward since she is the new and temporary addition to our group. She gives me a small side-smile as we load up into Kendall's mom's SUV and head off to the mall. It's not that close because Kendall lives in shits-ville so we actually have to drive to get anywhere close to a mall. At least with something decent and orderly.

Kendall asks for music suggestions since she can play anything on her phone on pandora. Liz and I shout out "The Fray" at the same time. Just that sends us into a fit of giggles. Kendall plugs her phone into the car's stereo and blast The Fray's 'How to Save a Life'.

Liz means everything to me and I kind of saved her life in a way... I found her and dug her out from all those lockers and now we're here almost three years later. Sitting in the back seat of one of my best friend's SUV's. I bust out singing, not that I'm very good, but I don't sound like a dying horse so I'm good. Liz looks like she's thinking about singing, and then joins me. So does everyone else in the car. We all star really exaggerating the notes and it sounds really funny so we start giggling again. This keeps going with many different songs until we hit the mall.

The first store we go into is JCPenny's for shoes and just to get Liz warmed up to our shopping style. None of us really like JCP but sometimes they have some really cute shoes. Of course we all try on just about every single shoe in the store. Really high and sexy heels, strap-y sandals, and even the ugly granny's floral shoes. After about thirty minutes, we decide to look for a dress, then shoes.

My friends and I are known for a new dress each week so finding the perfect outfit in very important to us. Lizzy looks like she's finally relaxed and enjoying herself so I hope she doesn't turn into my mother while dress shopping.

Lesley is the first one to find a dress. She picked out a strapless sweet-heart neckline that goes a little higher than mid-thigh. It's neon orange until it hits the elastic band that goes around her upper body under her bust. The bottom skirt half is white lace with a shear but not see-through white liner. It looks awesome with her spray tan and tattoos. Surprisingly, as much as Lesley gets spray tanned, your think she'd come back orange once or twice. Nope. Lesley is known for always having perfectly tan skin year-round. She ends up buying white pumps to finish the look along with some silver hoop earrings.

Kendall and Jessi are next because they take longer to find matching dresses. Always together, always twins. They found a electric blue dress that has one thick strap on the shoulder. Following the strap, the material goes across their bust, leaving an open space from the side of the strap (right), and wraps around and zig-zags back down to a short pencil skirt. I have know idea how they managed to find out how to put it on but it looks amazing. Both a perfect figure that fits dress. That's also the reason their buying it. They claim to have this dress "fit their ass, perfectly!".

I'm next to pick out a dress. It looks really cute on the hanger and I want to try it on but I'm not sure. I don't want Liz to freak but she has been pretty mellow about Lesley, Kendall, and Jessi. I go into the fitting room and try it on. It's white mini dress that has a sweet-heart neckline and two smaller straps going criss-cross on my back. It's has two little stripes at the end of the skirt. I really don't think Lizzy will call me out because this dress isn't super sexy like the other girls, but more summer-y and carefree.

I come out of the dressing room to show my friends. I earn four squeals of delight and an extra big hug from Liz.

"Don't you want to get a dress, Lizzy?" I ask her.

"Nah, I got plenty of those things! Where to next on our stops of adventures?" Liz replies.

"I wanted to get another tattoo!" Pipes up Kendall.

"Away we go!" I say.

*•*•*

"What do you want?" Lesley asks Kendall.

"I want a pair of black angle wings, small ones, but not too small, where a tramp stamp would be." Kendall says.

"Sooo...like this?" asks Lesley. She had sketched the design out on her note pad. Two little, but not too little, black angle wings with defined feathers was upon the pad.

"Yes exactly! But with a few, like three, feathers falling off. Well, down." Replies Kendall with excitement.

Kendall doesn't have many tattoos and neither does Jessi. Lesley and I are the most inked. Jessi has a sleeve on her right arm of a Chinese dragon because she once went through this stage of anime and she wanted something done that has to do with it. The only other tattoo is a doge on her inside left ankle. Kendall just has small scattered tattoos. She has a bird on here left ankle, too, but I don't think it's a dove. Jessi and Kendall got the birds together. Kendall also has a tattooed flower bracelet on her right wrist and a very small, about the size a little bigger that a quarter, rose behind her ear. She says that was her first one and wanted to be able to cover it up if she didn't like it.

So finally the angle wings go on. Kendall doesn't like big tattoos but she wanted to show off something during the party on Friday. Again, it's not really wild and crazy but we dance a blare music from time to time. Other days we just get high and drunk and play game from when you were five. Like hide and go seek. Except, its different. Your all tipsy and calm and the world doesn't spin right and it's a lot more fun than when you were five. It's all just depends not the crowd and who comes that night.

Lesley just finished the first wing and it took about ten minutes. So much quicker then Liz and I's.

"Hey who wants to take a pic so far and let me see?" Kendall's voice made Lizzy jump and little. She had been staring at how Lesley inked the skin of Kendall's back. I guess it just fascinated her.

"I will." I respond. I take the picture with my phone and show it to Kendall and she smiles. I thinks this might be her new favorite. Kendall doesn't usually tell us the resins for getting each tattoo but that's her story. Still, it'd be interesting to know what's behind this one.

Lesley finishes and blots off the extra ink and sits back to make sure everything is perfect. Then I take another picture to show to Kendall before she looks at it in the mirror.

"It's awesome Lesley! Thanks!" exclaims Kendall.

"Alright, it's been a very long and eventful day, I'm ready to sleep." I state.

"Yep."

"Agreed."

"Totally."

"Let's go."

They all say. And with that, we left to go sleep as we all agreed.
