章節 5: the perfect outfit

Heading into the mall we hit store after store until going into a Celine store and I fell in love.

I found my outfit.

A black leather jacket with a flower pattern patch on the back. A light blue long sleeve crop top that had a low neck line, and a pair of washed out black denim high wasted jeans. Grabbing the whole outfit I rush to the dressing room, passing my friends I say "I found it you guys, I found the perfect outfit."

They follow me.

I slide my pants down my slender hips. Adjusting my white lacy panties. I slide the denim pants on buttoning the waist, it resting just below my belly button so you could still see my piercing. They fit perfectly to my body making my ass look great.

The crop top hugged my body perfectly. Putting on the jacket I walk back out in full display of my best friends.

"Oh my god, you look so hot." Josie said "I'd fuck the shit out of you."

"Shut up oh my god, you're so gross Josie."

"You do look really good Seri, this is the outfit, it was made for you for this concert." Brooke said.

"You're trying to loose your virginity aren't you?" Josie joked.

"I hate you." I glared at her furrowing my brows.

Changing back into my clothes, we keep shopping looking for clothes to change into before heading home.

I found a new pair of dark green fleece leggings and an oversized cream colored cotton sweater lined with fleece, which still matched my boots and kept me warm without my jacket.

Arriving at the car and loading our bags, Josie decides it's best if she drives us home, considering we're apparently in shock and shouldn't be driving.

We were didn't talk much most of the ride, we blasted music with the windows down and the heat on high, singing along to our favorite songs. It was so necessary for us to have this to wind down after such a crazy day.

I played Bad Wolves for all of my turns, I was so excited for tomorrow. This is the best birthday I think I've ever had. I'm going to the beach and seeing my favorite band and I'll be so close too!

I really do have the best friends in the whole world.

It was dark by the time we got to my street. My drive way was dark, my dad hasn't fixed the lanterns that lined the road yet. He's been busy at the hospital, there's been more accidents recently so Trinity's been busier than usual.

"Why do you live so far out in the middle of nowhere? It's so shitty driving out here at night. I can't see anything." Josie complained.

"I don't know, but I like it, the stars are clearer here and the sound of the city is drowned out my the sounds of the night."

"When is your dad planning to fix the lights so I can see when I drive out here at night. It's super rude to make me drive in the dark."

I rolled my eyes and laughed.

Walking through the front door we take off our shoes and put them in the cabinet and hang our floats in the coat closet next to the door.

"Oh hello hunny you're home," Dad yells from the kitchen.

"You're late" my mom says walking out of the kitchen coming up to hug us. "I'm glad you're home safe."

"Wow, you guys bought a lot." Mom said smiling.

"Yeah, I might have went a little overboard," I awkward laugh rubbing the back of my head.

"I actually expected more, especially since Josie was with you guys."

"Wow, Meredith, thanks for the love." Josie joked putting her bags in the living room.

"No, I'm happy you actually spent money Seri." Mom said "You never ask for anything really."

"I just don't want for much, you guys give me a good allowance, so I buy things I really want. So I've never had to ask."

"You're such a filial daughter." Mom gave me anther big hug. "Let's go your fathers warming up dinner right now."

"Why are you guys so late?" Dad asked.

"Traffic was bad leaving Redding, and I had to make a lot of bathroom stops because of all the coffee I drank today." Josie answered with such confidence in her lie.

Impressive, I always forget how talented a liar she can be.

"Well drink less coffee." Dad joked.

"You're asking an awful lot of me Joseph." Josie joked.

"Why'd you guys change clothes?" Mom asked.

"We made a mess eating lunch at the taco place so we bought new clothes to wear so we didn't walk around with nacho cheese on our shirts." Josie answered.

Sitting at the table my mom asked question after question about our day.

Josie took on the responsibility of answering most of the questions.

Dad does most of the cooking in the house, since my mom could burn water if she is left unattended.

For dinner he made my favorite meal, spaghetti and meatballs. Dad would make the pasta and sauce from scratch. He also went to a butcher and would get the highest quality of beef and sausage to make the meatballs. He picks up garlic bread from our neighbor who bakers in exchange for work around the house. My dad liked to help out and the lady was well in her 70's.

"Mr Kinsington, you make the best spaghetti." Brooke praised my dads cooking. Her compliments always made him soak in his glory. One of Brooke's dad's was a professional chef so it meant a lot getting a compliment from her.

"You always know how to make everyone smile." Mom said reaching over the table to pat Brooke's hand.

"So we have a surprise you." Mom says getting up and walking over to the freezer. Pulling out a a cake, she lights the candle and begins to sing in her out of tune voice and then everyone

joined in:

"Happy Birthday to you,

Happy Birthday to you

Happy Birthday to Seri,

Happy Birthday to you"

My friends and father clapped as my mother brought the cake to the table.

"Make a wish." Mom said.

I take a deep breathe and close my eyes 'I wish for adventure come this new school year'. I wish to myself and blow out my candle.

"What did you wish for?" Dad asked.

"If I tell you it won't come true, you know the birthday wish rules."
