It's here. Prom night. Something I never thought I would be going to. Just as I expected picking out a dress was a nightmare. We walked into the store and everyone was throwing things at me left and right. I never imagined it being so stressful. I tried on a ton of dresses before I found this green dress with long cutout sleeves.

The instant I put it on I felt amazing, and to my surprise, Natalia found this one for me. She said it brought out my eyes, which I'm not too sure about, but I just roll with it. And it turned out that we didn't have to get this one fitted since it was already my size, which took a lot of pressure off of me. Unfortunately for Natalia, that wasn't the case. She just got it literally today.

Anyway, Natalia and I are getting ready in my room and Ryan and Tristan are getting ready in his. Once our hair and makeup is done, Natalia and I get into our dresses.

I step out of the bathroom and Natalia comes back into the bedroom when she's done changing. She looks amazing in her blue and silver dress, and I personally think it was worth the wait in alterations because it fits her like a dream.

"Oh my God we look so good!" Natalia squeals looking in the mirror. I laugh, but I have to agree. I've never been so dressed up in my life. It's weird to see myself in such a fancy dress. I really hope Tristan likes it.

So here's the thing. Natalia told me that they should wait until prom to see our dresses. I thought that was stupid, and that they only did that when you're getting married. However, she insisted on it, and basically bullied me into not showing him, which is now why I'm anxious about him seeing it.

"You ready?" she asks putting in her last earring. I take one last look at myself before nodding my head. I follow her down the stairs and outside to the backyard where Ryan and Tristan are waiting. Unlike him, I knew what he was wearing. As always he looks unbelievably handsome in his all black tuxedo waiting for me. When we look at each other he smiles so brightly I can't help but smile back. All the nerves from earlier are gone as he seems to appreciate what he sees.

I get to him and he wraps his arm around me giving me a light kiss on the forehead. "You're so beautiful" he whispers to me and I feel myself blush.
