Six.

'Emergency, get to my house asap. xoxo' I sent this message to Alice and Lucy. Within the hour they were at my door. I let them in, cautiously.

"What's the emergency?" Lucy asked, worriedly searching every where for something even the slightest out of place.

"Sup," Alice giggled, watching Lucy panic. "Lucy, calm it and then Jess will tell us." The three of us strolled into the kitchen.

"Can I get you anything?" I asked, now driving them both up the wall.

"TELL US!" They practically screamed in my face.

"I just wanted you two to coordinate what I was going to wear for this evening." I explained, shrugging before taking a crunch out of my shiny, green apple.

"Ooh, and where are we going little lady?" Lucy winked, running herself a glass of water.

"A date by any chance?" Alice rose an eyebrow, despite her 'tough' character that she puts on, she was actually average sized and very skinny but above all she hated cheating of any sort.

"No. Just a..." I racked my brain for the perfect word. "Just a chat." I immediately mentally hit myself with a metal spade in the head knowing that this would spark up more questions. To my surprise, it didn't. Lucy nodded and Alice took a sip of Lucy's water before she rushed up the stairs followed by Lucy. I didn't want them in my room without me for too long so I took another few bites from my apple and threw it in the bin with a single flick of my wrist.

"So, how long have we got?" Alice asked, ruffling my hair.

"Just under two hours." I sighed, looking down at myself in the mirror.

"Easy." Lucy winked.

"I bagsy hair and makeup." Alice said grabbing some crazy 800 piece make up set.

"Please don't go over the top." I began regretting letting them loose with my appearance.

"Shhhhh." Lucy hushed me whilst bustling through my wardrobe. "What about this?"

"Oh, he said it had to be r-" Before I could finish the last of my sentence, Alice jumped down my throat.

"HE!?" She shouted.

"Um yeah..." I said nervously staring at my bare feet and the wooden flooring beneath them.

"What were you going to say, Jessica?" Lucy said before winking at me when Alice looked away knowing that I didn't want to say anymore about it.

"Red." I mumbled, quietly before letting them do what they had to do.
