Break Down Your Walls

[27]

"You sure about this one?" I ask as I walk out of my bathroom in skin tight black jeans and a black tube top along with a black leather jacket and my black heels, a gold belt adding some color.

"Hmm, you look amazing, but I don't know if it's your style." Charlie puts a finger up to her chin and I sigh in relief. My thighs are begging to be set free.

"Here, let me try that outfit on and you try this one." She pulls out a white dress that looks as if it is being tied together like a shoelace. It seems to have fairly good coverage and the long sleeves are off the shoulder having the similar ribbon at the ends as it does in the bust area.

"Kk!" I take the dress and head back to the bathroom, excited to get out of these pants. I slip into the dress and let my hair fall over my shoulders. The dress is form fitting and hits at about my mid thigh. It is also fairly comfortable and I practice dancing to see if it would ride up uncomfortably, but it stays perfectly in place.

I bundle the other outfit up in my arms and head out of the bathroom, handing the clothes over to Charlie. She looks at me with widened eyes. "Oh my gosh, yes! Go off, queen!" She exclaims and I let out a quiet chuckle.

"Thank you." I reply softly before my eyes catch a black, slightly sequenced dress. "Charlie, you have to try that on first!" I hand the dress over to her and she smiles and jumps up and down in excitement.

"Okay! I'll be right back!" Her voice rises slightly in pitch with her giddiness. I shake my head slightly with a grin, my heart filling with joy at seeing her so happy to meet Haz and look perfect for the occasion.

I look at myself in the mirror, tucking a piece of my curls behind my ear. I have a feeling that tonight is going to go unexpectedly, but I'm not quite sure what that means. I just hope it's good.

I let out a soft sigh and then I hear the bathroom door open. I look over and see Charlie walking over towards me and my jaw drops open. "Wow, hotty!" I exclaim with a wide smile. I see her cheeks grow red before she squeals.

"Do you think Haz will like it?" She asks with hopeful eyes.

"No doubt about it!" I assure her. A little giggle escapes her lips before she bends down to try and pick some shoes for us.

"Here." She passes me a pair of transparent heels, reminding me of Cinderella and her glass slippers, Charlie seeming to be my fairy godmother. She slips on a pair of black suede heels and then checks her phone.

"It's eleven. We should head out so we're not too late." I bite my lip slightly in anticipation, not able to hold in my excitement.

"Then let's go!" I urge her, starting to turn off the lights around my flat. We join in quiet laughter, bustling to put things in order before leaving and locking the door, carrying little purses with us the essentials.

We can't even listen to music on the way there because we're talking too much in our frenzy of excitement to have a night out. We pull up along the street and it's already getting pretty crowded because it is half until midnight.

I take a deep breath before hopping out of the passenger side of the car, careful that no cars are coming my way. Charlie waves me over, starting to pull out her ID. I do the same and once we enter and show that we're old enough to be in there, we continue on.

People are dancing right in the center, purple and blue lights shading over the entire space. We look frantically around the bar area and lounge to try and find Tom and Haz before I hear the familiar voice of Harrison Osterfield calling us over.
