Chapter 13

"How about this one?" Kat holds up a short strapless fuchsia cocktail dress, I study the dress up and down. "Nah, too girly."

Kat rolls her eyes but digs through her closet some more, I run my hand over her comforter and sigh.

I really hope that Jc planned somewhere because I have no idea where to go, I start searching restaurant on Kat's phone when she throws 3 dresses on me.

I stare at them blankly before I hand her the last one she threw, "I don't like green."

Kat shrugs and throws it back into her black hole closet, I quickly undress and slip into a Tiffany blue dress that comes down to right above my knee caps.

Kat has a lot of dresses because she participates in a lot of pageants and not to mention she's practically a model for commercials- I mean I can't blame her, she gorgeous and has an awesome body. If I were her I'd strut my stuff all I could- I suddenly feel very insecure.

I cross my arms tightly over my chest, Kat turns around and her eyes glow. "I love it! You're wearing it, you're wearing it!"

I shrug and look at myself in the mirror, I do look kind of cute. I twirl a little and smile a bit.

"C'mon flower girl-" Kat hurries me into the bathroom "- lets get you dolled up."

It's 7:45 and Jc is still not here, I texted him Kat's address and told him to pick me up here. I saw that he read the message but he didn't reply, I pace around Kat's room and list off reasons why he's not here:

"Maybe he ran out of gas" "Maybe he ran into a friend and they chatted and lost track of time" "Maybe he got into a crash- I hope not- but it's a possibility" "Maybe he lost his keys" "Maybe-" "VICTORIA"

I stop pacing and look at Kat, she holds up my phone which has 1 message on it.

From: Jc

I'm sry I can't do this..

I slowly sit down on Kat's bed, I throw my phone at the wall in front of me as angry tears stream down my face.

Kat hurries over to me and hushes me, "Don't you think you're being a little dramatic...?"

I open my mouth to spit out every swear I know for being inconsiderate but I close my mouth. I take a deep breath and speak, "You're right, he's not worth my world destruction tantrums"

Kat chuckles but then frowns, "So... what are you gonna do now? You can stay he-" "No, no. Your mom will call child services or- even worse- my stepdad and he'll kill me."

Kat gives me a mad and annoyed look at the last sentence but she has to admit- it's kinda true.

"Okie, so are you still gonna stay with the boys? What about school?"

"I'm gonna continue with the boys, I'm not gonna give up the only place I can stay just because of Jc. As for school, I'm 19. And plus I can just... maybe... I don't know what I'm gonna do..." I sigh loudly.

Kat pats my leg, "You can stay tonight." I swallow my tears of depression and nod, curling up on her comforter I slowly fall asleep.
