I enter my apartment and head for the bathroom. I feel like I have to rinse off what I felt was an intense moment of sexual frustration with Josh. I come out with a towel wrapped around me and one around my head. "Hey girl, you got less than an hour to get ready. We're hitting the mall, movies, and getting pedicures" Jess yells as she shuts the front door. "Okay" I scream.

I blow dry my hair and throw it back in a high pony tail. Throw on jeans shorts and a tee shirt, along with flip flops. Jess looks similar in her attire except she has some dangly earrings in. We jump in her car and head to the mall.

We park in a close parking space next to Macy's and walk in. We browse through stores for a few hours, mostly window shopping, and picking up a few odds and ends. We walk in Bath and Body Works and Jess buys me a few candles and lotions that I pick out for me as a present. We continue on to Victoria Secret and Jess pushes me to buy a few sexy panties including a sexy green bra and pantie set. "Sexy clothes always make us feel hotter" she says.

We snack on a soft pretzel and make our way to the nail salon and begin our hour long pedicures. As the ladies soak, scrub, and lotion our calves and feet Jess asks "Are you really going to stay miserable or figure things out with Josh... Not trying be a bitch, but you guys weren't together officially...yet...sort of?" "Yeah, it might have the occurred during the same week we started spending time together and we weren't officially together but I still feel like an idiot" I respond. "Alright... I know what will cheer you up or at least keep you distracted" she excitedly says. "What" I curiously ask.

"There's a big music festival...concert type...thing tonight and we should go." I look up with excitement from my magazine "Now were talking."

We finish our pedicures and head back to our apartment. We recently made a few friends with those who also have boyfriends at the dorms and invited them to join us. "More the merrier" Jess yells at me. Around 8pm, Lacey and four other girls show up in her ford focus.

"Bitches, let's go" one of them yells from the car. I glance one more time in the mirror trying to work up the strength to go and encourage myself that I look hot for tonight. I wore the green bra and pantie set to boost my confidence along with wearing black jean shorts and cut off sleeve Beatles t-shirt. I let my hair stay longer in the hot rollers to add more curls and volume. I had to admit I looked pretty good. As I regained my confidence I grabbed my bag and headed out the door.
