Now and Forever novel Chapter 15

One and a half hours later, Audrey was done with my makeup and hair. "And... done!" She exclaimed while turning me around to face the mirror.

"Final- Wow!" I cut my sentence short when I looked at myself in the mirror. "I know right?! Did I do good or good?!" Audrey exclaimed. "What kind of magic do you have in your hands?!" I asked while I took both her arms in my hands and all she did was chuckle lightly.

She had given me an all natural look but used plum lipstick. For my hair, she had straightened it and pulled it back, leaving some free to frame my face. "Alright alright, stop admiring my work and get to dressing." She said as she started undressing.

She was wearing a dark blue mermaid tail dress that hugged her curves in all the right places. It had a deep v-neck but was not showing off her chest too much and had little gemstones running all over the chest area. She matched her dress with a silver clutch and sparkling silver heels.

I took off my clothes and put on the dress we had gotten earlier on today. I put on my shoes and Audrey lent me a black clutch. For jewelry I put on silver hoop earrings, a diamond necklace and a silver bracelet.

By the time we were done dressing, it was ten past seven and the event started at eight. As we walked out of Audrey's room, Alexis and Bethany walked out of the room opposite of Audrey's room.

Bethany was wearing a red strapless dress that had a deep v neck, showing off more than it had to. The dress was so tight it fitted her like a second skin, with a slit on both legs reaching way above mid thigh. Her makeup consisted of a deep bold red covering her lips, a Smokey eye that complemented her blue eyes and thick layer of eyeliner. Her hair was curled at the bottom and cascaded down her back in volumes. She accessorized with a black clutch, gold earrings and a gold necklace.

Alexis was wearing a rose gold spaghetti strapped dress that was tight around her waist and then flowed free to the floor in layers, it was more of a princess dress but less puffy. For makeup, she went with a nude lipstick, glitter eyeshadow and pink blush. She held her straightened black hair in a tight ponytail and left some free to frame her face. She had accessorized with diamond studs, a silver bracelet and a silver clutch.

"You know we're going to a gala Bethany, not a club." Audrey said and I snickered. Bethany glared at us and walked away. Alexis glared at me then followed after Bethany.

Audrey and I talked while we walked towards the stairs. We got to the landing of the stairs where Alexander and three men who I think were Bethany, Alexis and Audrey's plus ones, were waiting at the bottom and I stopped dead in my tracks.

Alexander was wearing a back tux with a black bow tie and whit dress shirt. He had combed his hair back but some stubborn ones were falling on his forehead. His dress shoes were so polished to the point you could see your reflection in them. All in all, he looked HOT.

Alexander was typing furiously on his phone while sitting on the arm of the couch and didn't notice us coming down the stairs.
