'OMG!!! What should I wear? What if he doesn't show up? No, what if he hates me now? No...what if he does show up but he doesn't like my dress?' Kara starts panicking. Here's what's happening. Jake asked Kara out and now, Jeremy, Rachel and I starts looking for a stupid dress for her.

I mean, can this day get any worse?

'Your bestie's kinda crazy.' Jeremy whispers to me..our eyes moves around the room, following Kara's movement as she panics, talking to herself or is it us?

'Kinda?' I ask. 'But shall I remind you, she's your bestie too.' I remind her.

'Shouldn't we go help her?' Rachel asks.

'Yea, let's call an ambulance.' Jeremy teases.

'Great idea.'

'Ha-ha, you guys are soooo funny.' I roll my eyes and walk up to Kara.

'Sit.' I order.

'Sit?'

'Yes, I said sit!' She heeds to my order and sits on her bed.

'Breathe in..' I say slowly. 'Now breathe out...' she does as ordered calmly, repeating the process.

'Whoa Val, did you just like perform magic?' Rae asks.

'Yea, I mean she's back to normal.' Jeremy is taken aback.

I push my hair back and curtsy with a smile on my face.

'You're welcome.' I say and they roll their eyes simultaneously.

'Look Kara, you're gonna be fine okay?' Rachel assures.

'Will you go with me?' She asks.

'Me? No way...I kinda have some things that I've to deal with.' She lies. I'm sure of it. Who'll wanna keep up with Kara and her crazy behavior? 'But Jeremy's free.' Rachel says and Jeremy signals a death glare.

'No I'm not...um..Ryan and I are..um...going fishing.' She stammers a lie. TRAITORS!!!

'Fishing?' We ask, confusedly. 'I thought Ryan was accompanying Jake?' Kara says.

'Busted!!!' She chuckles. 'Well, Valerie's free.' She says and I signal her the middle finger while mouthing the word 'bitch.'

I sit close to her on her comfy bed and sigh.

'I'll go with you.' I say.

'You will?'

'Yup.'

'I can't believe you'll do that for me!!' She smiles.

'Well that's what friends are for right?' I put emphasis on 'Friends' so Rae and Jeremy understands my point. 'And I'm sure you'll do the same for me.' I smile and she pulls me in a hug.

'Thanks boo bear.' She pulls away.

'You're welcome, but don't call me that. It sounds creepy.'

'I like it so I'll keep calling you that boo bear.' She says and I roll my eyes.

'OK, I've also decided I'mma go with you.' Rae offers.

'Really?' Kara asks and Rae nods yes.

'I can't believe I'm saying this but I also wanna go with you so you don't mess things up cause I'm like your biggest motivation.' Jeremy says, pushing her frizzy hair backwards. Have I mentioned she's a black American? Well, she is a very pretty one indeed. I love brown-skinned people. I've always wanted to be one.

'Boooooo!!' We boo her off, throwing things at her playfully.

Kara pulls us in a bear hug.

'Y'all are the best thing that has ever happened to me.'

'Awwww.' We squeal.

'Now let's not get too emotional.' Jeremy pulls away. I rummage through her closet and find the perfect dress for her. It's a mini turtleneck mauve-rose gown that falls right above her knees. I place it on her chest and smile.

'Perfect.'

'No bitch, mauve-pink doesn't look so great on her..wear this!!' Jeremy raises a white jumpsuit in the air.

'C'mon, we all know that I'm the only one with a proper fashion sense here so wear this.' Rae pushes a red shirt that falls off the shoulders and a matching mini skirt on her chest.

'Firstly Rae, it's a dinner date not a fashion show and Secondly Jeremy, it's mauve-rose not mauve-pink..Howcome you don't know that? Lastly, Kara's favorite color in the whole world is mauve-rose.'

'It is?' They all ask simultaneously plus Kara.

'Okay so I may have forgotten your favorite color but mauve-rose does go with your style.' I say.

'No it doesn't! White makes her look perfect!' Jeremy says.

'No, mauve-rose does.'

'No, red does!!!' We argue.

'Let's try them out first!!!' Kara shouts and we nod.

After she tries all of them, we figured the dress I picked out for her was perfect.

Rae fixes her make up..making it light and faultless.
