Getting ready for Nicole's party took some time.
Sarah headed straight to the bathroom and thoroughly washed her hair and body, leaving a fruity scent from her shower gel. The hot water helped relax her strained muscles as she leisurely shaved her legs to remove the small stubble that had appeared over the weekend.
After wrapping a blue towel around her wet body, she returned to her bedroom to get dressed.
Sarah opted for a black singlet paired with a red plaid shirt, black shorts, and black boots as suggested by Taylor. Her blonde hair cascaded in loose curls down her back with small plaits woven through it.
She then applied makeup, skipping foundation since her skin was clear, and only using concealer to cover the dark circles under her eyes. She did her eyebrows, added mascara, and finished her look.
After getting ready, she went to Belly's room.
"Are you sure about this outfit, Taylor?" Sarah asked as she entered Belly's room and gestured towards the clothes.
In the room, Taylor and Belly were preparing for Nicole's party. Taylor was in a bright pink mini dress, while Belly wore a striped crop top and beige pants.
"Sar, you look hot!" Taylor exclaimed as she helped Belly with her mascara. "Tonight is gonna be so much fun."
"Yeah, I just hope it's not a disaster like the last party I went to." Belly said.
"You went to one party for like twenty minutes. It barely even counts." Sarah pointed out as she sat on the bed.
Belly rolled her eyes. "Yeah, and I embarrassed myself in front of everyone."
"No, you made people notice you. Enjoy it. Don't spoil it." Taylor advised her best friend.
"I mean, I guess it was pretty badass having a busted lip for a day, wasn't it, Sar?" Belly asked with a smirk.
"Yeah totally." Sarah replied sarcastically, chuckling.
"Anyway... you know what we should discuss?" Taylor said, changing the topic and giving Sarah a pointed look. "You and Conrad. I know you two are like... in a weird phase right now, but you guys need to fuck... like, now."
Sarah's eyes widened in surprise. "Taylor!"
"What? Everyone can sense the sexual tension between you two. It's starting to get annoying." Taylor explained.
"He's with Nicole... his girlfriend." Sarah reminded her.
Taylor pursed her lips. "Well, we'll have to do something about that won't we?"
Belly rolled her eyes. "You're unbelievable."
"Zero clumps. I'm a genius." Taylor said with a smile as she closed the mascara. She then noticed the flower crowns on the bed. "Oh, we should totally wear these to the party."
