"Is all of this REALLY necessary?"
We'd been sitting in Kat's room for more than two hours while she styled my hair and did my make-up.
"Yes, it is necessary. Now shush, you're gonna make me mess up."
I sighed impatiently.
This had better be one hell of a surprise considering all of the crap I've gone through today.
"How much longerrrr?" I whined and shifted uncomfortably in my seat.
"Not much, now SHUSH!"
I scowled.
Ugh, please let this nightmare be over soon.
"Aaaaand, DONE!" Kat stepped away from me and admired her work, "I must say, you look preeeetty smokin'." She pushed a few stray strands of her flaming red hair out of her face and smiled excitedly.
"Can I look?"
"Not until you have your outfit on." She handed me the dress and heels.
I quickly changed out of my clothes and into the body-hugging dress and impossibly tall heels.
She looked me up and down, then nodded in approval, "Now you may look."
Stepping around her, I looked at the mirror. The person looking back at me was a totally different person. Her curly hair was shiny and voluminous, hanging just above her hips. She had full, red pouty lips and the fabulous smokey-eye she had made her eyes look an even brighter shade of hazel.
Her silver dress clung to her body revealing every sexy curve and the tall heels added length to her legs.
"I did good didn't I?" Kat smiled at me in satisfaction, and I nodded.
"Now it's my turn to look hot!" She went to her overflowing closet and dug around until she settled on a fire engine red dress and black heels similar to mine.
~~~~~~~
After about twenty minutes, she was completely ready, standing next to she admired herself in the mirror.
"Ready to go? It's time for your surprise!" Kat jumped up and down in place, sending her red hair flying about.
"I guess so. Will I regret what I'm about to do?"
Kat grinned and put her arm around my shoulders, "Heck no! We're about to have the time of our lives!" She laughed giddily, "Now come on! There's fun to be had!"
~~~~~~~
After ten minutes of driving, we found ourselves outside of the new club everyone was talking about, 21 & Under.
"Surprise!" Kat looked at me, excitement very clear on her features.
I smiled nervously, "This oughta be fun."
We both stepped out of the ccarand headed to the entrance where we were greeted by a large line of people. "This is so exciting!" Kat bounced around nearly bumping into the people in front of us.
I giggled at her excitement. Kat's always been one to get a little too excited.
The line grew shorter and shorter until we were finally at the front of it.
"I.D." The large bouncer held out his hand, and both Kat anx I handed him our I.D.'s. He looked them both over and nodded signaling that we could enter.
As soon as we were inside, I was assaulted with the smell of alcohol & sweat, as well at music that was so loud it shook me from the inside out.
The inside of the club was dimly lit aside from the light-up dance floor, strobe lights, and the lights that adorned the bar. It gave the place a kind of 'underground' vibe.
"You ready to party?" Kat looked at me with a wicked grin and I grinned right back at her, "Hell yeah."
We made our way to the dance floor and let loose. Our bodies fell in time and swayed to the music. Before long, I felt a pair of hands take hold of my hips, and I turned around to see who they belonged to.
He was handsome, but obviously intoxicated. I didn't care though, I continued to dance, grinding against him and even letting my arms find their way around his neck.
After a few songs, I parted with my unknown dance partner and went in search of Kat. When I finally found her, she was seated at the bar, a drink already waiting for me.
I sat down and she scooted closer to me, bumping my shoulder with hers, "Nice moves on the dance floor you naughty little thing you." We both broke out in laughter.
"Ya know, that guy up there has been eyeballing you ever since we walked in here."
"Who?" I looked around in confusion until I found to whom she was referring.
He was up in the V.I.P. area surrounded by a throng of girls. His hair was a golden brown and was tousled sexily, his eyes were an unsettlingly bright shade of icy blue.
She was right though, his gaze was locked on me. Every movement I made was followed by his eyes.
Kat nudged me, causing me to break my train of thought. "He's pretty damn hot."
I turned back to my drink and nodded in agreement, but I could still feel his stare boring holes into me.
After a few minutes of shifting around in my seat, I couldn't take it anymore.
"I'm gonna go use the bathroom, okay?" I got up and fixed my dress.
"Okey dokey, want another drink?"
I just shook my head. How was she even getting alcohol? We're only 19!
This is Kat we're talking about, doesn't really surprise me.
Weaving my way through the massive crown of people, I finally got to the bathroom. I entered, and to my surprise, it was empty.
I walked up to the sink and looked myself over in the mirror.Hair? Check. Make-up? Check.
I let out a sigh and thought back on the strange guy in the V.I.P. section.
Why was he staring at me?
Approving of my appearance, I left the bathroom. As I was walking, I looked down to fix my dress again. Bad move. As soon as I looked down, I collided with someone.
Looking up, my breath caught in my throat, and my hazel eyes were met with icy blue ones.
