Slapping and dancing

I wake up, Monday! John's gonna pick me up tonight for our date! I need to take a chill pill.

My phone rings, who is it? John? Jen? It can't be my dad, I made it to where his calls are silent. I look at my phone,

"Jen!"

"Hey girl, what's up?"

"Well um, I kissed John after I told him I liked him and he said the same. And Nate came twice, the first, John was in the bathroom, the second- John went outside and punched the crap out of him. Nate never came back. My dad is trying to get a hold of me and my first date with John is tonight."

"Woah! Didn't your dad leave you and your mom when you were like 2?"

"Yep."

"And he thinks he can just wiggle back into your life? That jerk!"

"Calm down, girl. The important thing is- what should I wear?"

"Where is the date? How much taller is he? Can you walk in heels?"

"A restaurant where it's part tables and part dance floor. Sorta fancy. About 4 inches taller. And yes, I can walk in heels. I can also fight in them."

"I don't think fighting is necessary at dates, Serena. Send me pictures of the dresses you brought."

"Alright, that would about ten, since I brought almost my whole wardrobe, they aren't exactly fancy material, they're more sun-dressy."

"Then we'll go shopping."

"We?"

"Oh yeah, I forgot, I'm taking the week off, I'm calling from a cab in Oklahoma, in fact I'm almost to your house. Can I stay with you?"

"Duh! Of course you can! But how did you get here without paparazzi?"

"Well, I dyed my hair auburn before I left for the airport in LA and wore a hoodie here. By the way, I'm at your front door."

I hang up the phone and leap up from my bed, running to the door.

"Hey," I say as I open it, "come on in."

"So, you excited?"

"And nervous."

"Don't be, you already got him wrapped around your finger. By the way, what's your ring size?"

"4, why?"

"When he asks me before he proposes to you, I want to be able to answer."

"Bit early to think of marriage."

"No it's not, you too will be together forever and ever."

"Now," she says as she puts down her duffel bag next to her suitcase, "let's go shopping!"

********

We go into the Dress Boutique on Main Street and start searching.

"Serena, what's your dress size?"

"6. Should I wear makeup tonight."

"No, you got flawless skin then again mascara and lipstick will enhance."

"Mascara and lipstick it is, I got a question."

"Yes?"

"Will people come here to see you?"

She looks around the shop making sure no one is around, "I hired a look-a-like with blond hair to go to my apartment in New York and had a 'source' tip the tabloids that I was in NYC."
