Chapter 14 ' I don't dress to please a guy . " 88 She rolls her eyes playfully before disappearing back inside her wardrobe . Yes , it really is big enough to get lost in . " Aha ! " she yells triumphantly , appearing with a dress in her hands. It's gold , short and covered with sequins . I gawk at the dress and throw Trish an amused look . " How many prostitute costumes do you own ? " Trish gasps , her eyes widening before she takes a second look at the dress . " Okay maybe you're right , only a little . This one is definitely a no . " Trish grimaces before hanging the dress back up . " I think I'll dress myself Trish , " I smile , rolling off the bed and heading for her wardrobe . That's how I end up two hours later wearing a long sleeved top with ripped jeans and black boots . My outfit covers the scars and bruises running up and down my body and that's good enough for me . My hair is curled to perfection and I've applied more makeup than usual with some red lipstick and dark eyeliner . I'm definitely channeling my inner Taylor Swift . I spritz myself with some perfume before standing back and scrutinising myself in the mirror . " Wow . We look hot , " I grin , holding my hand in the air for Trish to high five . Trish beams back at me and slaps my hand hard . " Yes we do . " Trish smiles , adjusting her bright pink crop top . She wore it over black distressed jeans matched with pink stiletto heels . Trish doesn't leave her house for a party without bringing her bright pink heels . " Come on , we've got a party to get to ! " Trish giggles excitedly , grabbing my hand and dragging me out of her room . A smile stretched across my face and I felt my level of excitement rise quickly . This is really happening . Tonight is the night I break my party virginity . " Let's make my first party a memorable one . " I grin , feeling completely carefree . It's time for me to finally act like a teenager . 44444 As soon as the taxi parks up outside and I step out , I gaze up at Ivory's house in slight awe . The large building stood in front of me was decorated beautifully from the outside , the grass is trimmed and flowers looked after . Two expensive looking cars are parked across the driveway , their shine so bright despite the darkness of the night . " Wow , " I say under my breath , my stomach breaking out into nervous butterflies . Beside me , Trish let out a low whistle . " Are you ready ? " She asks me , holding out her palm . I glance down at it before nodding . She takes hold of my hand , intertwining our fingers together . Her warmth spreads through my palm , calming down the nerves bubbling inside of me . When we enter , the hallway and living room is crowded with teenagers , laughing and chatting . The music blared all around the house , bouncing off the walls . I crane my neck , noticing a large group of tightly packed people dancing in the living room . Across from them , a bunch of guys are playing beer pong , clutching bottles of alcohol with silly carefree smiles on their faces . 1/2 9:03 Tue , Oct 14 B .. Chapter 14 88 " Emily ! Trish ! You made it ! Ivory grins , appearing in front of me . She hands me a drink in a plastic white cup and I take it from her , smiling back . " Hey ! Yeah I did , this looks great ! " I said loudly , leaning into her ear so that she could hear me over the loud music . Any louder and we'll all be deaf within the next hour ... " It's one of my legendary parties , trust me . You won't forget this night ! " She grins widely before wondering off into the crowds of people . I lift the cup to my nose and sniff it warily . The smell of alcohol knocks me back so I slowly put it down behind me on a table , grimacing slightly . " Oh come on , it's not that bad . " Trish chuckles from my side and I roll my eyes before picking the drink back up . " I guess it is my birthday tomorrow , right ? " I said , justifying my action . Trish nodded eagerly , signalling for me to take a drink . I lifted it up gingerly to my lips and let the liquid run down my throat . Surprisingly it didn't taste as bad as I thought it would , fruity with a little zing to it . Chapter Comments 12 о Write Comments SHARE
