***Gemma's POV***
I had one other friend who I knew could help me with finding a less good girl outfit.
I found Adele's contact in my phone and called the number.
"Hello?"
"Hey Adele? It's me. I need your help, can you meet me at the corner store on Sampson Street in 15?"
"Yeah sure, see you there" I hung up the phone. I had known Adele since kinder as well, although we slowly drifted apart in middle school I consider us quite close now days.
I took the bus to Munro Street and walked towards the corner store, I saw Adele leaving against the wall of the shop on her phone. She was probably talking to Harry her boyfriend.
"Adele" I called
"Hey gem, so what are we actually doing?"
"Well, you know the party tonight at Ben's? Well I need something a little 'out there' to wear" I looked away, hoping she got my hint
Adele's mouth formed an O as she nodded and led me into the shop. I sat down while Adele started rummaging through the clothes racks searching for whatever looks slutty and chucking it at me. First it was a small black dress that could pass as a long top. Then a blue dress that had cut outs on the side and barely passed my butt.
I tried them both on, deciding to go with the blue one. But crap the dress was expensive. I barely ask for anything in this world. A 200 dollar dress wont kill me.
"Thanks so much Adele, I guess I will see you tonight then"
"It's alright Gem, and sorry I'm not going to be there tonight, I've got other stuff planned." She gave me a wink.
Adele has had a boyfriend for a grand total of 4 years now, although they struggled a lot at first they've gotten to be a lot more out there and happy. So I know she is spending the night with him.
"Oh ok, see you later then."
I began to walk down to the bus stop; seriously hoping the bus would arrive soon, and it did.
I got off the bus and approached my small country house that I lived in with my aunt and my older sister, although she spends most of the time with her new boyfriend.
I walked in to the sweet smell of Lucy, my aunt baking a cherry pie.
"Hey Lucy, I'm home and won't be for long." Lucy is a young auntie, only 12 years older than me.
"And where are you going?" She turned around and washed her hands.
"I'm going out...to a party." Lucy reacted just as I expected her too, shocked but happy that I was actually having some fun.
"Good for you chicken, would you like any help getting ready?" She was so kind to me, I know she struggled a lot too when she found out about my parents death.
"I'm alright thanks." I smiled sweetly and made my way up the stairs to my bedroom.
Ok first things first. Get the dress on.
Then I began to do my makeup, which I covered my face in beauty products such as layers of foundation and eye shadow.
Lastly was the hair I decided to leave it down, allowing my loose curls to fall free.
I looked in the mirror and barely recognized myself. The conservative me was long gone.
I had an hour or so to spare before I needed to leave for the party, so I did what every teenager does in their spare time. Facebook.
I noticed I had one new friend request and a few messages from Jeremy.
Of course the friend request was from Astor. I can't stand him; I clicked on his profile and began to stalk. What was with this guy? His profile picture was a picture of him hooking up with some chick that was topless. Most of his photos were of him topless, self centered much?
I accepted despite my mind saying he was a douche, almost instantly I had a message from him.
'Hey'
'Hey' I replied
'Will I be seeing you tonight?'
Unfortunately he will be.
'Like I told you before, only if you're lucky'
And I went offline.
I hurried downstairs past Lucy and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
"My my Gemma! How much different could you look!"
"Not much, see you later, do I have a curfew?"
"No, don't worry about it, go and have some fun!" To be honest, I was a little shocked about easy going Lucy was about this party.
I ran out the door, and made my way to Ben's house, which was easy to pick as it was blasting with music and lights. God he must be loaded, I don't even understand how his parents allow for him to throw parties this big.
As I walked in there were several couples hooking up in the doorway. Wow.
I turned around to see a guy I had never seen in my life checking me out.
I didn't know quite what to do since it was like my first party in a long time, so I began by getting a drink at the bar; a few drinks never hurt anyone.
The bartender was a very attractive shirtless guy who seemed slightly drunk himself,
"Double shot of vodka" I acted like I knew what I was doing. The bartender laughed.
"That drink doesn't exist sweet cheeks" He smiled as he poured me what looked like a single shot of vodka.
