“Yeah well, she doesn’t have a dress yet, so I offered to take her,” she said.
“Fine by me. More the merrier I guess,” I said.
“Right. Anyways, I’ll see you then,” I said.
The day before the formal, I met at where JJ was supposed to meet up. I saw JJ there, and then, there was Tori.
I know that Tori and I weren’t super close, but she seemed to be alright, I guess. Tori looked at me, smiling as I looked back at her.
“Ready to go?” she asked.
“Sure,” I said to her.
We then went off to have a girl’s day. The plan was simple: we’d go, get our dresses, have a relaxing spa day, and then we’d get some food. The first stop was the dress store, and when we got in there, I saw some pretty dresses that were discounted in the corner.
“I like these,” I told them.
“The color is nice,” JJ said.
“Yeah, looks pretty. You should try it on,” Tori said.
I nodded, grabbing the dress. I then went to the dressing room, and I started to try it on. When I got out, Tori immediately grinned.
“Oh my gosh, that looks so good. Let me take a picture!” she said.
She snapped a pic, and I looked in the mirror. It was alright I guess, but I didn’t really feel like it screamed me. I tried on a few more dresses, each one getting pictures courtesy of Tori, and then, I found he prefect one.
It was a black dress, a little one that showed off my features pretty well. When I tried it on, I felt hot, and I could tell it was nice. This was something similar to what I’ wear when I was escorting. After I finished up, I paid for it. We walked around the mall, and I noticed that there was a beautiful redheaded woman who was about our age with a man probably in his fifties.
“You don’t see that every day,” Tori said.
“You mean the girl?”
“Well yeah, she’s hot as hell, but she’s over there with that crusty ass man. It’s a shame,” she said.
“Right. I mean, you have to do what you have to do,” I said, trying to keep the tensions to a minimum. In truth, it reminded me of my days as an escort, which felt like a different part of my life. Sometimes, I did miss it, since I was getting a lot of money, and in many cases, I didn’t have to do all that much to get what I wanted from it.
After we finished up there, we went to the spa to get our nails done. I noticed Tori taking more and more pictures.
“You really all that interested?” I said.
“Of course! I mean, it’s not like I get to go out every day with people like this,” she told me.
I nodded, believing her when she said that. After we finished there, we then started to go to the restaurant. However, when we got there, I noticed three familiar faces.
“What are they doing here?” I asked out loud.
Sure enough, Luca, Phoenix and Thorn were all there. I was still pretty upset after what they did the other day. But then, Tori smiled.
“Oh, I guess they just found out about our little girl’s day,” she said.
I looked over at her phone, noticing that she had a lot of snapchat pictures on there. I know that she was taking pictures, but I thought it was because I didn’t have a phone. However, I noticed her purposefully going through them, and that’s when I saw all the captions.
She actually thinks this looks good on her.
More like puke green, am I right?
I swear, she’s so boring to hang out with. I’m only doing this for JJ.
Look at those nails! Who doesn’t take care of their fingernails? Bet she’s some primitive too who doesn’t wash her ass.
I read all of those snide remarks, cringing slightly at her words. She was such a bitch, but it’s not like I was able to do anything about it.
However, in the final snap, I noticed her other words.
By the Way, we’ll be here for a bit if you wanna come hang out. Could use some company after this piss-poor day.
I swear, she just sounded so miserable offline. However, I noticed that Phoenix and Luca were looking at her.
“My my, look at little Jules here. Isn’t she cute,” Luca said.
“Yeah, looks like you’re having a cute little girl’s day,” Phoenix said.
“Seems fun,” Thorn said.
“Whatever. Do you guys always have to hang around where I’m at? Don’t you have like girls to flock to?” I said.
“Nope, you’re our number-one target,” Luca said.
“We just wanted to come say hi. Nothing too rude about that, right?” Phoenix said.
Well, I was a little sick of hem already, that’s for sure. I started to sigh, feeling he frustration grow within my body.
“Anyways, what the hell do you all want? Why are you here?” I said.
“Oh, we just wanted to invite you to a private party, if you’re interested,” Luca said.
“Yeah, might be fun,” Phoenix said.
What made them think I wanted to associate with them after how shitty they were towards me? I started to scoff, looking at both of them.
“Go suck a dick. I have to get ready for the formal,” I stated.
I walked back over, looking at Tori and JJ.
“Let’s finish up here and then go back. I’m not in the mood to deal with this shit,” I said.
I wish they would just leave me be, but I don’t think that would be any time soon. They were obsessed with me, and I knew that the only way to get past this would be to just ignore them for now. but that was much easier said than done.
Chapter 14
The night of the formal was an interesting one. I was ready almost immediately, and I heard a knock at the door.
“There you are,” I said, looking at Dane.
He was an attractive man. I couldn’t help but feel slightly lucky as I looked at him. He
