Jessica Davis and Elizabeth Jensen has decided to go dress shopping at a small dress store in their town. Jessica was in the changing room, while Elizabeth was rummaging through the clearance section near the dressing rooms.
"What do you think about this one?" Jessica questioned as she came out of the dressing room. She was wearing a tight black dress.
"It's cute, but the one with the flowers is still my favorite."
"I agree." Jessica nodded. "This is the last one, so I'm just gonna change back into my clothes."
Elizabeth smiled as a dress caught her eye on the clearance rack. It was dark blue sequined dress. "I'm gonna try this on, yeah?" Jessica nodded before returning to her room to change into her normal clothes.
Elizabeth had stripped, and then slid the dress over her body. She smiled. She needed something like this. It made her feel more like her old self. Maybe this dress would be step one on her way of getting back to who she was. She ran her hands down the side of her dress. She didn't know that a dress would be the thing to make her happy, but it was.
Elizabeth took in a deep breath before exiting the changing room. Jessica was sitting in a chair, staring at her phone. She looked up, and her eyes widened. "Wow, my best friend is a hottie." She laughed as she stood up. Jessica grabbed onto Elizabeth's hands. "I've missed you, 'Liza."
"Me too, Jess." Elizabeth pulled Jessica into a tight hug. The girls stayed like this for a while, feeling safe in each other's embrace. "I love you a lot, you know that, right?" Elizabeth spoke as she pulled away from the hug.
Jessica nodded and smiled. "I love you too, my love." She looked down before sighing. "Justin's going to go crazy when he sees you."

Elizabeth smiled as she looked at herself in the mirror. She felt good. She knew it was going to be a good night. She could, after a very long time, finally have a normal high school night. She was going to a school dance with the boy she was in love with. What could go wrong?
There was a knock on her bedroom door. She walked over to it and opened it. Justin was standing there, holding flowers. "You're stunning, baby." Justin could not take his eyes off of her. He could not believe that after everything he had done, she still loved him and chose to be with him.
Elizabeth smiled as he handed them to her. "These are beautiful, but you didn't have to do this."
Justin shook his head as he took her wrist and wrapped a corsage around it. "I did." He chuckled as he rubbed the back of his neck. "You are the most important thing to me in the world, and I want to be able to show you that in every single way." Elizabeth pressed her lips against her cheek. She pulled away and noticed his tie. She pointed to it with furrowed eyebrows. Justin smiled as he played with the tie. "Clay taught me how to tie it."
