"I can see my bones," I tell Bella as I'm looking down at the skin between my crop top and the mini skirt that Bella let me borrow. I had this problem on Tuesday when I wore the groping skeleton, I could see my hip bones that night too, but this time, I'll be around a lot of people that I know so I'm more self-conscious about it.

"No, you look hot," Bella assures me as we're walking into the frat house. "You have bones, you know, I think that it's a known fact. Everybody knows that you have bones."

"But-"

"You look amazing," She says again and then she's pulling me into the crowded house. The black crop top isn't as cropped as the skeleton one that I wore on Tuesday and it's not tight either. It flows around my midsection and there's only about two inches of my belly showing before the skirt. But the skirt is really short so my legs are making me nervous. My shins are short, my thighs jiggle and when I sit down, they fan out and look like dead blob fish.

We go into the kitchen to get a cup of beer before we meet some more of our friends in the dining room where there's a very heated debate between Captain America and Iron Man in the Civil War movie.

"He was protecting his friend!" One guy shouts from the left side of the room.

"But he was breaking the law!" A girl shouts from the other. "And Tony was just trying to protect everybody."

"Steve was doing the right thing," Another person claims in a very heated fashion.

"You're all nerds!" Bella shouts into the crowd and I know that she's just joking because she's a fan of the superhero movies too but she's more of a DC fan. If she starts a DC vs. Marvel debate though, shit is going to hit the fan so I think that it's just safer for everybody if we keep it with in the Marvel universe.

"Bella, you have no place here," One of the Captain America defenders tells her when she doesn't take their side. I just take a drink of my beer and watch this entire thing unfold before me because it's pretty entertaining to watch.

"Hey, I have opinions too," She argues. "I think that Spiderman was irrelevant and Ant Man is a joke."

The entire room erupts in either agreement or outrage at her comments and it makes me laugh.

"He's a human bullet!" One girl cries out.

"You are one of the nerds, Bell," I inform her with a small laugh. I'm personally on Iron Man's side but I'm not a fan of confrontation so I'm just going to sit back and drink my beer.

"No, I'm not," She disagrees. "I'm just fueling the fire. You know I'm a Batman girl. Oh, shut up. Watch this."

I take another drink of my beer as Bella stands up on a chair in the dining room to get everybody's attention.

"You are all losers," She informs the entire room of people ranging from sober to wildly drunk already when the party has barely even started yet. "Let's move on to things that really matter in the real world. In lieu of the Brandgelina divorce, are we Team Jen or Team Angie?"

Another huge outcry from the crowd in the dining room. The Jen fans move to the left, Angelina Jolie to the right, and then they go at it again.

"Jen is a little innocent flower that just wants to be loved," Somebody begins the debating, prepared to tear down her opponent because she apparently feels very defensive of Jennifer Aniston.

"Brad Pitt deserves nobody, he can just die alone," I decide to voice my opinion and that's apparently one thing that people can agree on because they all start cheering and I just take another drink of my beer.
