Him

Parties & Church

"Katie! Get out here now!" My friend Hazel yells.

"No way! Not in this outfit."

I walk towards my bathroom mirror and look at myself. My friends had been too many parties. It seemed like a good idea to let them choose my outfit. Now though, I am regretting my decision to let them help me.

What they picked isn't too bad. I just usually wouldn't wear something like this. They picked short black shorts, a red tank top, and a leather jacket. I was able to choose my own shoes. I decided on red vans. With one last look at myself I walk towards the door.

"Are you sure about this outfit?" I ask through the door.

"Of course!" Emma yells.

"We wouldn't have picked it if it wasn't," Emma's twin Fiona yells.

Sighing I open the door and walk out of the bathroom and into my room.

The girls smile at me as I walk out. I sit down in my chair and let Hazel do my hair. She straightens it and pulls the bangs up, into a bump.

When she is done I do my makeup. Nothing too drastic. Just tight lined eyeliner and black smokey eye. After I put mascara on I get up.

"Aw! Katie you look so pretty," Hazel say.

"AA!" The twins squeal with excitement.

I just giggle and grab my phone, putting it in my jacket pocket as I walk out of my room. My friends follow behind me. We head towards the kitchen where my brother is there eating.

"Eli, we are going to head out now," I say.

"Okay. Have f--" He stops as he looks up at me. "Katie?"

"Yeah?" I say confused.

"You let them pick your outfit. Huh?" Eli says motioning towards the girls.

"Of course we picked it out!" Emma says smiling.

Eli chuckles and goes back to eating. With one last wave we all head out to Hazel's car. We decided there was no reason to take any other cars.

Once inside I became quickly nervous. I had only been to one other party in my life. It was boring and weird so I had left early.

Before I know it we are driving up to a crowded house. The music is spilling out of the house. I can feel the bass pounding as soon as I open the car door. So many people are here. They are everywhere!

I am frozen in my spot. It is absolutely insane! My thoughts are suddenly broken as Fiona links our arms together. She pulls me with her towards the house.

"Whose party is this?" I yell to Emma.

"Owen Deen's!"

My jaw drops. Owen Deen's party? Wow! He is the most popular guy in school. Captain of the wrestling team, and Eli's best friend. I hope he won't see me. I have always had a crush on him. Being the shy girl I am, I'm sure he won't even bother talking to me.

Finally we reach the door. I feel a renewed wave of fear spread over me. I enter slowly with my friends.

Everywhere I look there is someone there. This had to be the most crowded place I'd ever been too. Music was loud, and the bass was vibrating my insides. I keep hold of Fiona as we maneuver our way through the crowds of dancing bodies everywhere.

I see Owen walking towards us. He has a few drinks with him. Wait, is he really coming towards us? No way, he has to be going to someone else.

"Hey ladies," Owen says handing Fi and I a drink.
