I'm on my bed going through Pinterest looking at my favorite rock bands. I might be quiet but I'm a stormy fire inside. Little clue is that I'm a big rock music fan.
I'm trying to consider Nessies' advice. Tell him you like him? That's a big gap from love. I'm getting confused not knowing what I'm feeling. But, withstanding all, I'll try to take it all slowly. Like I always do. But this time with a slight difference of taking action.
"Tell him you like him!! He's not going go bite" ,Nessie had said sternly.
"Yeah right! And be counted one of the girls who can't get over how hot The quarterback is" , I say rolling my eyes and meaning it.
"Good things just don't come around without struggle, you've got to put effort not just ogle" ,she says, laughing in a cocky manner.
"Taken. So , what's your big league plan? " ,I ask her feeling hurt. As close as we are, Nessie's never known any of my love interests. It's weird involving her in this one. Violet will surely find it a boost of improvement on my side.
"You ever watched those fashion shows where they transform you from a unattractive scuzzy icky yicky yucky.. "
"Okay, I get it!! I am soo not that! You lying OK? I'm so comfy in my flairs. I don't need to be in anyones' skin. Now what you said tops every other thing I've heard from Violet. And I don't carry grime!"
"That's what they all say. Whatever babe. Point is,tomorrow we're going to make you sparkle to the extent glitter glare's gonna triple that of an Lampyridae!!" ,she says stubbing me in the arm with every word.
"And how's that going to happen?" How are you going go extract the light from the Fly? "
"Don't put me to shame,Jules!! We're going shopping! You know, that thing you do when you get new outfits to replace nerdy ones in your closet"
I'm about to open my mouth to protest when she says "Not a word Jules, you've waited too long. You deserve more."
Lost in my thoughts, Violet comes into my room.
"Hellllo! What's up? Where are you?",says Violet.
"You never stop making me laugh! You see me sitting right here and you ask me where I'm at"
"You looked lost in thought. How was the party?"
"Well it was okay considering someone left her sister all alone"

"Whether you like it or not, you've got to think it true and do what I say, OK?? Not for me, for yourself, OK?? Now let me hear 'yeah'" , says Nessie waving invincible pom poms. We're in the schools restroom and she's putting finishing touches to my makeup.
"Yeah Grann , happy now??"
"Yaas baby!! Now get outta hear and give them what you've got"
"Ugh!" ,I say stopping at the door, "If I'm right and I correctly remember, I'm sure I took nothing of anyones'."
"Get outta here dumbass! Now listen, what was it we rehearsed again?"
"I'm to go up to him and say hi and maybe tell him we should hang out again like old times"
"Exactly! Don't forget to wave fingers and flip hair,k"
"Got it Gran! "
"And quit the 'Gran' shit" ,she says as I walk out the door.
