"I like this one." I said picking up a blue tight skirt off a rack in urban outfitters.
They both looked at the skirt, then at each other.
"It's a bit-" Grayson said.
"Slutty." Ethan butted in.
"Hey, I'm not a slut. This is cute." I said holding it up to my waist.
"Your ass is literally going to hang out the bottom." Grayson said pulling on the material.
"Well maybe I'll bag myself a man if I show off my assets." I said cocky putting it back on the rack knowing they wouldn't let me leave with it.
"Don't be like that Emma it doesn't suit you." Ethan rolled his eyes.
"I'm joking. I'm not like that, we all know I'm the biggest virgin going." I smiled.
"Good." Grayson put his hand on his hip.
"Alright calm it Dad." I said hitting his chest.
"What about this?" Grayson said picking up a pair of jeans from a pile.
"Jeans? To a party?" I raised my eyebrows at him.
"Yeh, with a flannel." He confidentially said looking for my size.
"No way." I laughed pulling him away. "I want to dress up." I looked at him once he turned around.

"Well how about we pick something out?" Ethan butted in after looking at some other dresses for me.
"No way. You two are like my big brothers, you'd never pick out anything that shows off my legs, or even my shoulders."
"Correct." Ethan nodded.
"Well how about I find something that I think doesn't show off a lot and I'll surprise you guys later back at mine?" I looked at them both.
"I don't know emma. I don't want any of the guys hitting on you." Grayson did unsurely.
"Seriously they won't? Look at me compared to other girls." I started looking at some more clothes. Grayson grabbed my arm and turned me around.

"Don't put yourself down like that you're beautiful."
"Thank you But please, I'll meet up with you guys in an hour Okay?"
"Please chose something sensible to wear." Ethan rolled his eyes and motioned for Grayson to follow him.
" I will." I smiled, jumping up  and down a bit, happy they were leaving finally.

Later that night.

Ethans POV -

"We've got to pick up Em at 7." Gray said walking into my room.
"Dude that's 15 minutes why didn't you say earlier?!" I shouted jumping out of bed and running over to my closet.
"I gathered you'd be ready, you better hurry up." He said walking out and shutting the door.
I opened my closet doors and grabbed a shirt and a pair of jeans. I stripped down and applied some deodorant, never know what might happen. I buttoned up the shirt and pulled the jeans up my legs, while still managing to do my hair and apply after shave.

I looked at myself in the mirror, I didn't look too bad. Although I had got ready in 5 minutes I surprisingly didn't look messy.
"Gray I'm ready.." I called slipping on some Air Force 1's.
"Meet me in the car!!" He shouted and I heard the front door shut.
I ran down the stairs and quickly checked myself in the mirror before running out the front door and meeting Grayson at his bronco.
"Jesus you got ready fast.." he laughed when I hopped into the passengers seat.
"Well maybe if you'd told me earlier that we had to be at Emma's at seven I wouldn't have had to rush." I raised my eyebrows at him.
He started up the car and began driving down the road towards Emma's.
"So, why did you and Olivia really break up?"
"Uh- it doesn't really matter." I said embarrassed.
"It's because of Emma isn't it?" He said, not making eye contact.
"No not at all." I lied.
"Ethan, don't lie to me. I know you better than anyone."
"Grayson I swear I don't feelings for her anymore."
"You're biting your lip." He said glancing at me. "I know you're lying."
"Grayson just quit it." I put my hands over my face not wanting to talk about it.

"No I want to know." He insisted. I looked at him, I was so angry. Why did he feel the need to get involved?
"Why? It's my business not yours." I hissed.
"Because Ethan I have a right to know."
"What right do you have?" I furrowed my angered brows at him.
"I- you know what it doesn't matter." He rolled his eyes. He was going to say something, I knew it. He was scared of something.
"No tell me." I turned to face him. His face turned red, I wasn't sure wether he was angry or embarrassed.
"You gunna admit you like her?" He said through gritted teeth.
"It's none of your business." I turned back around. Now not facing him.
"Then there's your answer." He snapped.

We didn't talk for the rest of the drive. We both needed to cool down before we got into a serious fight about this. When we pulled up to Emma's we both sat for a Moment in silence.
"Hey, lets pretend this never happened and have a good night? Yeh?" I said to him.
"Yeah fine."
"And Emma doesn't find out about this convo okay?"
"Sure Ethan." He huffed.

We hopped out of his car and walked up to Emma's front door. I lifted my hand and kicked on the door and we were soon greeted by Emma's Mom.
"Boys, you both look very handsome." She said letting us step inside.
"Thank you Mrs chamberlain." We both smiled.
"Oh boys, how many times do I have to tell you not to call me that?" She giggled. "EMMA!! The boys are here!!!" She shouted up the stairs.
"Want a drink boys?" She offered.
"No thanks we'll be heading off in a sec, thank you tho." Grayson smiled at her.

Our heads turned to the sound of the floor creaking at the top of the wooden stairs. "Hey can you boys come help me do my dress up?" She asked, still in her robe.
We both nodded and headed up to her bedroom.

When we walked in she was facing away from us, not allowing us to see her face.
She dropped her robe slightly to allow us to see three small buttons and a zip.
"One of you do this up please?" She asked.
Grayson quickly stepped forward and began doing up the dress. His hands brushed against her skin and it made me jealous.
I felt my jaw clenching as I saw him push her hair out of the way and onto her shoulder, his fingertips grazing her shoulder bone.

"Done." He said letting her hair fall back.
"Thanks I'll be out in a sec." She said walking over to her joined bathroom. Still not really letting us peak at what she was wearing.

"You good?" He asked me. Noticing how my fists were in a ball.
"Yeah I'm fine." I spoke.

Graysons POV -

We heard the door unlock and a heel hit the wooden floor. I glanced up and my mouth hung agape at the sight before me.

Emma was wearing a beautiful purple silk dress that was a little too short for my liking. The guys would be hitting on her all night.
But she looked amazing.
Her long legs connected to the dress perfectly, her toes freshly painted with blue.
Her make up was so beautiful, not too much. Natural and glowy.
Her lips were shining when she moved, as the gloss would catch the light.
Her hair was curled lightly, more so beach waves. Her small little baby hairs still making an appearance.
She looked fucking beautiful.
