Aurora on Pointe

Chapter Eight

It was the weekend and i'm just so excited to relax! I draw myself a hot bubble bath and put out scented candles. Yes cliche, but so worth it! I slowly get in, jumping a little at the hotness, but relax, dipping the rest of my leg in. Oh yes. So worth it! I submerge my head under water when I hear a strange noise. What? My head rises from the bubbles only to hear my phone ringing. I grab it and look at the caller ID. Isabel. Answer it? Don't answer it? I bit my lip and decide to answer.

I hesitantly raise the phone to my ear. "H-Hello?"

"ERIN!" My hand rips the phone away from my ear as I jump at the loudness of her voice. "Erin? Hello?"  I roll my eyes and hold the phone a little bit away from my ear. 

"Yes?"

"There's a party tonight." She says matter-of-factly.

"Uh,so?"

"And your coming with me." Ah, I figured she'd say that. 

"No I'm not. Isabel I'm not going. Nope. Now way." I shake my head back and forth hoping to get through to her.

"Too bad. I'm at your house and I BROUGHT A REALLY CUTE DRESS!" She screams the last part making me sigh. Really? "Yes really. Now let me in!" With that she hangs up. 

I step out of bubbly heaven and wrap a towel around me. Going down the stairs I try not to slip and I open the door slowly. "Hey Girl!!!" Isabel barges in holding two big bags. "Come on! We gotta get ready!"

"Isabel, I'm not going." I scold her.

"Oh erin...." She drags me up the stairs to my room and slams the door closed. She grabs a hair dryer from my bathroom and turns it on. My hair flies all over the place and the heat burns my skin.

"Isabel! Ouch!" She ignores me and finishes the job. Next she straightens my hair pin strait. "Wow..." I stare at my reflection in awe, fingering my silky hair.

She slaps my hand away. "I'm not done yet!" Then she does a smokey eye on me and makes my lips red. "Oh Girl, you look hot! Now for your dress!" She waggles her eyebrows at me, making me skeptical. She pulls out a strapless dark purple dress and slides it on my. The dress clings to my body, sparkling in the light, stopping about mid thigh. Wow. I do look hot. Isabel hands me black stelletos with a smirk on her face. "Me likey! You likey?" She points in my direction and i quickly nod. "Yay! Lets go!"

She drags me back down the stairs, outside to her car. We drive for a few minutes and arrive at Jason's house. "Jason's house...?" Jason never told me he had a party tonight...

"Yea it was kinda a last minute decision of his. I heard about it from Eric." She unbuckles my seat belt and gives me a push, "Come on!" I reluctantly slip out of the car and stare at the booming house. People are all over the place, some even passed out outside. Wow. 

"Wassup my ladies?" Eric comes tumbling over, beer in hand, and throws his arms around us. "Awesome party, right? Let's go get another drink!" He tips his head back, chugging down the last of his beer and falls back in the process.

"Eric!" Isabel stumbles to catch him. She sighs, "Just go in, I got him." I chuckle and make my way inside, searching for Jason. Drunk kids keep bumbing into me, making me stumble in these four inch heels. I curse under my breath And push through the crowd.

"OMG Erin!!!" Alli screeched and grabbed me into a hug. "Let's dance!" Before I even had a chance to hug her back, she drags me to the dance floor. Oh, what the hec! I start swaying my hips to the beat and throw my arms above my head. Alli does the same and we sing to the song 'What makes you beautiful'. Yes, it's cliche, but so catchy and sweet!!! I add a little bounce-twist thing to my step and sing louder. Alli hands me a red cup. "Drink up!" I gulp down the beer and shake my head, feeling the buzz. Yea, I'm not so good with alcohol.
