t e n - E.M.

After I hung up the phone I immediately dialed Ariana's number. "Hello?" She answered.

"Come over. Right now. You told me you wanted to look good for Ethan, right?" I asked her.

"Yeah," She responded.

"Well I have just the dress for you," I say, opening my closet and pulling out the perfect red dress. I hear keys jangling on the other line. "On my way," She tells me and hangs up.

I also pull out a black dress and cream colored heels. I smirk to myself as I know Grayson will drool over the dress.

About ten minutes later I hear a knock at my door. "Come in!" I yell as I pull out a bag of chips from my cabinet. I hear the door open and close and hear heels click on the apartment floor. Ariana sets her keys down on my kitchen counter and I hand her the bag of chips.

"Salt and vinegar, your favorite," I say with a smile. "Thank you, Em! But I don't want to eat this right now or else I'll get super bloated before the party and I'm pretty sure whatever dress you have in mind for me is going to be tight," She says.

I nod my head. "Good choice because it is," I tell her, leading her into my bedroom. She lays her eyes on the dress and gasps. "Is this it?" She asks. I nod my head again. She covers her mouth.

"Oh. My. God. Thank you so much for this! I won't stain it, don't worry," She says, giving me a hug. "No problem. Now, is this dress good for me?" I ask, grabbing the black dress and holding it in front of me.

She gasps again and nods her head. "Try it on!" She exclaims. She turns around and takes the red dress into the bathroom to change and I quickly slip out of my clothes and into the dress. Ariana comes back into the room and her jaw drops.

The dress is long and has a slit where my right leg is and is cutout on the back. I look into the mirror standing against my wall and tilt my head. "I don't really like it that much," I say, "I thought it would look better." I turn around at look at Ariana in her dress.

The dress is tight and velvet. It has thin straps and wraps around her curves perfectly. "Ethan's the luckiest guy ever," I say, hugging her. "You look amazing. Now we need to find me a dress because the party starts in a few hours," I say again.

She runs her hands down her body and smiles. "Thanks, Em. I'm going to go take this off and we can go to the mall," She tells me. She walks out of my room.

My phone buzzes. I grab it from my desk and see that it's a text from Grayson.

G: Got my outfit as well. You're not gonna be the only one looking good tn ;)

Me: wow okay. I'll keep my eyes open for ya

I smirk at my phone until Ariana comes into the room. She's dressed in her normal clothes with her keys in her hand. "Let's go," She says.

At the mall, we walk into tons of stores yet can't find anything. I groan as we walk out of Forever 21. "Why can't I find any-" I say but then a certain thing catches my eye. A certain dress. It's a very light and pale pink color, some sort of satin or velvet material, and has a teardrop shaped cut on the chest. I point to it.

"That's the one!" I exclaim as I grab her arm and rush into the store, which turned out to be Urban Outfitters. I quickly scan through the dresses and find my size. I grab it from the rack and rush over to the dressing room. I quickly change and then open the door of the room.

Ariana nods her head rapidly. "That's the one. It really is," She utters. I grin and turn around to look at myself in the mirror. Grayson will love this. I change out of it and we walk over to the cashier and I pay for the dress.
