beautiful and two well she actually bought it in my size.
    I smiled as I put the curlers in my hair styling my hair into a bunch of loose curls doing my makeup to perfection. I decided on a smoky eye look with a red lipstick.
    The doorbell rang as Elaina called up we are here. I yelled down telling them that I was almost ready. I took off my robe pulling out the gold dress it clinging to my curves seductively I paired them with some gold stilettoes. I took one more look in the mirror and smiled.
    I made my way down the stairs to my friends who were arguing when it got quiet. I looked up noticing the mixture of awe looks I was getting from them. Elaina came up to me, “Damn girl you look hot; do you have a plan of seducing some men?”
    I laughed out loud shaking my curls, “I have to say El,  that was my plan for tonight so let’s get going I need me a hot man tonight.”
    El smiled, “That’s the spirit.”
    I turned towards the others expecting them to be waiting but they were looking behind me at something. Turning around I came face to face with Matt who was looking really hot and kind of pissed off.
    Everyone walked outside to get to the cars leaving me and Matt alone for a minute. I turned around to follow El when Matt grabbed my hand gently pulling me towards him.
    “Love, why are you ignoring me? And what hot men are you talking about?” he growled out.
    I scoffed at him pulling away harder then I needed to, “Matt don’t start you haven’t said one word to me since Christmas and who I meet is none of your business we are not together I am not even sure if we are friends.”
    Matt touched my face carefully frowning a little, “I am sorry love you are right I have been ignoring you but not because of you I been dealing with family shit but we are friends Penelope don’t doubt that,” he stared into my eyes until I agreed and then he smiled, “Well lets go to this party.”
    Well the party was crazy too crazy for me but I did my best to smile and have a good time we all stuck together so none of us would be separated.
    I went with the girls to get some drinks well the boys played pool with some other people when I felt two arms circle around me pulling me towards a random room when the girls weren’t looking. Ugh I tried pushing him off but he was too strong he pushed me into the room against a wall kissing my neck and running his hands all over me and grabbing my butt. I went to scream but he bit down on my lip drawing blood.
    I whimpered as I tried to move him but he took this as encouragement pushing me in the bed moving my dress up. I started crying and screaming as loud as I could which he answered by slapping me. He got up to unbutton his pants when the door flew open and there in all their glory stood Matt, Luke, and Nate.
    Matt took one look at me and lost it. He kept hitting the guy until Luke and Nate dragged him off of the guy. Matt looked like he didn’t want to stop but Nate whispered something to him making him look at me.
    Whatever Nate said had Matt moving to me; he looked at my face and down to my body pulling my dress down and smoothing it out. He touched my face making me wince well making him get angry again when he noticed by bloody lips.
    “Come on love let’s get you out of here okay?” he held me in his arms as I molded my body to his quivering in fear. He kept whispering sweet stuff to me as he combed his hand down my hair calming me.
    We made it out the front where the girls were at; they took one look at me and they all ran to me grabbing me and practically crying and getting angry at the douche head. Matt left us to talk for a few minutes appearing with both Luke and Nate at his side.
    They wanted to go home but I couldn’t let that douche ruin my day or my list I couldn’t and I wouldn’t so I voiced it to the group.
    “No I want to do this please?” they all looked at each other but Anna spoke up.
    “Honey there’s always next year to see the ball drop,” I looked
