When Luke reminded me about the night, I almost tripped over the stairs to my bedroom to get there. When I looked at our clock in the kitchen, it was past four o'clock. I had no more than two hours! I had to start preparing myself! And I know just the person to help me get ready. So I got my IPhone and started to call her.

"Liv, can you come over, it's an emergency!" Olivia is my best friend, and she knows a LOT about fashion and she can tell you all the tips on how to get your crush to like you, we help each other out all the time, so I knew Liv would come over in just a flash. 

 "What is it hon?..Yeah..sure! Yeah I'll help ya! I'm on ma way, sweetheart!" I could hear her excited voice and I knew I did the right thing. After about ten minutes, she started to pound on our front door. Olivia always does that, she's basically a part of our family now. All the times we've spent together at our house playing hide'n'seek.

I rushed down the stairs to greet her, and I immediately took her to my bedroom. She took her big bag, stuffed with her designer clothes, makeup kit, and shoes. We are doing this so many times we know our routine off by heart.

"Ok, no time to lose. You didn't tell me where you're going" I told her, and I added Luke in my sentence.

"Awe..Im so jelly right now! Thre's no way you're goin' on you're own honey! I'm comin' too!" She shrieked in my ear, buzzing with energy. OMG that idea was awesome!

"OMG YESS! Liv, you HAVE to come!!" We jumped up and down, shrieking from delight. I can almost imagine us dancing with the crew, and I told her about James, Mike and, weirdly enough, about Josh.

"Ok, never mind about that, we need to get us BOTH ready!!!" I couldn't wait to be transformed by my bff! She got a black mini from her bag, dangling it in my face. Awe c'mon! A black mini? It's so typical!

"Um...Liv, no. Not that. Everybody is gonna wear that, you know." I saw Olivia's dissapointed face. And then she grinned, she threw the dress behind her, and started to dig for something else. Finally, she found it,  and moments later I found a red, strapless satin dress, held perfectly at the waist, and as short as you can imagine. I bent down, to see how far I could go, and you could see my whole butt, seriously. It was higher than midpoint, and I'm really excited to go out there like this. I'm not embarassed or anything!

Olivia finished changing in the bathroom, and when she went out, I saw a torquoise mini, exactly like mine, but more stiff and tight. We gasped when we saw what a simple dress could do to you.

"OMG it's perfect! Wait, don't look in the mirror, I didn't see myself either! Let's do makeup for each other and grab some pairs of shoes!"  Olivia said, loudly as usual, and started for her makeup kit.

"Ok, let's do this, we still have one hour." One hour?! I thought, and Olivia must have read my thoughts or something, because she replied, "You know it took us a long time to pick the righ dress for you. For me, it was only three minutes, whilst you were, like, the rest!"

True, before she found the red dress, she had given me at least twenty of other dresses to wear, but I refused. The red one was the only one that I felt comfortable with, even though it was the shortest dress. I like to think at times like these that I know what I want.

After our makeup was done- thick maskara and eyeliner, a bit of eyeshadow, lipgloss and blush, we started to choose our shoes. I picked Olivia's black high heels, and she picked my five inch stilletos. Yes, we were the same shoe size, amazing right? It helps enormously at situations like these!

We had ten minutes left. It was still light outside, since it was September. I wasn't nervous, but I had this feeling that tonight something will happen. Olivia, on the other hand, was buzzing with excitement, obviously couldn't wait to meet the guys. Beside her, I couldn't be nervous, she gives off this positive and friendly vibe.

We started to walk downstairs, just in time to hear a car parking outside.
