tuesday night.
they planned and planned until it came down to the final plan.
they were going to do the typical 'ev is spending the night at ali's' gag, which is believable because the two of them were always together.
then if the boys were to want to check on her or drop something of paddy would distract them.
if that didn't work they would say that they went out to go see a movie with haley.
"you see nothing can go wrong!" ali said as she filled around the dirty chalkboard to reveal the clean side.
"okay but what are we gonna do about that" paddy gestured to ev's outfit.
"ah yes, you're going to help us pick her out a new outfit!" she cheered.
"do i have to?" paddy groaned out.
"yes, you see that sprite in your hand," she paused and pointed to the sprite "payment. you work for me now."
"fine." he rolled his eyes a bit.
"goodie now let's go!" she squealed and grabbed both of their hands and pulled them toward the door so she could get to her room.
"we can choose from my closet since we'll probably have no luck in her closet."
"hey! if nobody here appreciates my taste in clothes then i will just go!" ev put her hand over her heart in a joking manner.
"sweetie your clothes are fine but just not party clothes." ali places her hand on her shoulder.
"she's not wrong. now show us what you got. chop chop!" paddy said pushing the doors of her closet open.
the 3 of them spent the night sifting through loads of clothes, even holding a mini fashion show. they stopped for dinner part way through, it pasta in case you were wondering
it was currently 7:30 and all of them were tired, paddy laid across the semi stained carpet, most of the stains from paint or food, his head being propped up by the faux fur throw pillow and body covered by a matching blanket as ali laid across the soft pink duvet, her head almost swallowed by the silk pillows.
a large pile of unfolded clothes sat in the corner, mostly from this little try on haul.
ali's small vintage desk lamp was the only thing illuminating the room and the air was filled with the sweet sound of just loud enough 50s music.
ev walked into the room in tight high waisted leather pants and a muscle-t, ali clapped her hands together in excitement, which caught the attention of paddy who was humming gently along to the music, staring at the off white ceiling, and the small chandelier that hung from it.
"that's the one! yes yes yes!" ali jumped up and down moving closer to her friend, paddy nodded his head in agreement.
"i can barely breathe in this." ev groaned.
"that's the point!" she squealed, "one last thing though" she paused and reached for the bottom of her shirt, tying it up in a knot to give it a cropped effect.
"there, no outfit is complete without a thot-knot" ali smiled and nodded at her work.
"now what shoes to wear?" she asked herself, "ah i know just which ones." she reached down in the bottom of her closet and pulled out some red flats.
"wear these, and to match we can give you a red lip!" she handed her shoes over, smiling brightly, proud of her creation.
ev let out a shaky breath and nodded, going back to change into her regular clothes before her and paddy went home.
woah, i'm sry for the trash writing lol, maybe i'll try harder, wouldn't that be nice.
