UNBREAKABLE

Seventeen.

          "It's too short. My ass is almost spilling out." Hayley complained. She had been right about Jazz. The kind of dresses she came home with had been meant for teenagers. First of all she was a mother which meant her hips were wider and even before she hadn't been that slim. In high school she used to wear baggy clothes to hide her 'fat' legs. So all the clothes Jazz bought either looked too small or barely covered her up. By covering her up she meant the scars. She wasn't ashamed of them but she wasn't going to advertise them either. "Seriously Jazz how old do you think I am?"

"I don't know 25?"

"Seven. I'm 27 and a mom. You can't expect me to wear such clothes if I can even call them that." Hayley told her fingering a red backless dress with a plunging neckline that was too much for her. She thought if someone pulled the strings on the neck, her girls would spill out. It would be scandalous considering she wasn't supposed to wear a bra with it due to the backless design. She dropped it and scanned her bed. All of them were almost the same. "Seriously what were you thinking?"

"That we were going to a club therefore we needed to dress the part. Duh" She retorted. "But have no fear. I predicted your reaction so I grabbed something sexy but still conservative" Jazz produced a dress she had been hiding and Hayley sighed in relief.

"Why didn't you start with that?"

"Go change. Let's see how it looks" she was ushered into the bathroom and the door closed behind her. Scoffing she put it on and decided with a cardigan it would be way better than the others. It was a black knee length bodycon with a plunging sweetheart neckline covered with sheer lace that went all the way to her arms. It had gold lace at the cuffs and therefore didn't need any jewelry. It looked good on her and clung to every part of her body but something was off.

"Jazz I feel like it needs something. Don't you think?" she asked but Jasmine didn't say a thing prompting Hayley to look up at her. "Jasmine" she snapped her fingers in front of her face.

"Wow....that... The dress is... Wow" Jazz stuttered. She definitely should have led with it.

"So?"

"Remove your underwear."

"What?" Hayley shouted

"Your panties. The line is visible at the back and it's so not cool. Take them off"

"I can't walk around naked. If I take them off then all I'll have on is this dress."

"Then wear a thong like normal people"

"Let's find another dress then. I'm. not walking around naked" Protested Hayley. She hated thongs because they were uncomfortable and she could feel them deep in places they shouldn't be.

"Stop whining. We're already late. Shree will kill us" Jazz said deciding they didn't have time for styling their hair so a ponytail will have to do. Unlike Hayley she had no qualms about the dress she wore. It was a red leather dress with straps that crisscrossed at the back and ended inches above her ass. Not that the rest of the material covered a lot. She was a little taller than Hayley but the heels she wore made her look much taller. She had been approached by some modeling agencies looking to hire her but she'd turned them all down. She wasn't interested in modeling at all.

"God I hate thongs." Hayley complained walking to her underwear drawer.

It took them another hour before they left the house. Hayley had insisted on tucking in Alexis even though the girl didn't want her to. It was almost nine and they were supposed to meet Shree at a bar an hour and half ago. If they were lucky, she would still be sober enough to recognize them. JR was nowhere to be seen and being on a Friday it was understandable. Hayley felt a pang of jealousy thinking whoever he was with had to be a woman. Otherwise he could have been drinking with Nick at the house. "Ready ladies?" Zach asked. They were taking him as a precaution even though Hayley knew she wouldn't be drinking tonight. She just agreed to go with Jazz because it had been a while ever since she'd gone dancing.
