The next morning was a normal routine. I got up, got ready for school and cooked breakfast for both Jamie and I. At seven thirty on the dot Matt pulled into the driveway honking the horn. Jamie waved at Matt from the kitchen window as he got out of the car to open the passenger seat door for me. I grabbed my book bag and ran out the front door to the car, quickly kissing Matt on the cheek as i climbed in.

Within the matter of five minutes we were pulling into the school parking lot.
There was still a few minute's before class started so we took our usual spots on the steps outside the school. Within seconds Chelsey, Jordan, Sydney, Chris and everyone else had joined us. The conversation picked up right away.

"Bridgette, did you see the new dresses they have in over at Chez Romaiez ?" Aleigha asked as she sat down next to me.
"No, when did they get them in?"
"Yesterday afternoon."
"Oh, er I was out." I replied smiling faintly as Matt wrapped his arm's around my shoulder's kissing my cheek.

"Well we should go over after school. I know I haven't found my prom dress yet and they have an amazing selection."
"That would be great ! I haven't found a dress yet either." I smiled and looked up at Matt, " When I get home i'll call you."
"Okay." he said smiling.

"Can I go with you guy's ? I really need to find a dress too." Chelsey added.
"Sure, we can take my car. Have a nice girl's night." Aleigha said glancing at the guy's, "That mean's no guy's all night un till we get home."

The guy's groaned in protest, but Aleigha wouldn't have them ruining our fun, "Were not letting you guy's see our dress un till prom so your going to have to put up with that." she turned to Sydney, "Are you coming ?"
"Heck yes. I could do with a night away from Chris." She said smiling and pushing Chris playfully.

He took that offensive, "Hey, is it that bad being around me?"
"No."
He was half pleased with her answer.

"So it's settled, were having and all girl's night. No guy's whatsoever. Since I drove myself today we'll take my car and go right after school." Aleigha said.
"Okay." the three of us chimed at the same time.

The bell rang and we all headed off to our classes. The day went by rather quickly.
By the time it was done we were all over-excited to go on our shopping trip.

"Hey Chels." I yelled as I walked into the hall on the last bell.
"Hey Bri, come on. Let's get going. Don't want to keep the others waiting." she said sliding her arm through mine.
We walked out the door and to Aleigha's car. Aleigha and Sydney were allready there.

"Let's get this party going." Aleigha said as I climbed into the passenger seat.

Within ten minutes we were pulling up in front of Chez Romaiez.
"This is so exciting !" Sydney exclaimed as we walked into the store.
All the new dresses were georgeous. One in particular caught my eye.

It was pink at the top and a piece flowed down on the white bottom and was pinned on the left side with a gold clip.
I grabbed it and tried it on. When I walked out of the dressing room they were all there waiting to see it.

Chelsey was the first to see me. She gasped, "Bridgette, that looks absolutely beautiful."
"Bri ! You better buy that right now ! You have to wear that to prom ! I can see Matt's face now when he see's you in it." Aleigha added.
"Absolutely !" Sydney piped in.

"You know what, I think I will." I went back into the change room and took off the dress, carefully placing it back on the hanger and bringing it up to the counter.

I paid for it and within a couple hours they all had their dresses, shoes and tiara's.

When Bridgette got home Matt was sat in the living room with Jamie. Thank god this is in a solid colored bag. I thought as she walked into the living room, "Um, i'll be down in a minute. I have to get this upstairs."

"Can I see it first ?" Jamie asked standing up.
"Later dad. Matt's not aloud to see it un till prom." I said running up the stairs and placing the dress and accessories in my closet.
I ran back downstairs and jumped into Matt's arms kissing him passionately.

"Whoa now. Calm down Bri. Your acting like you haven't seen him in days." Jamie said.
"It feels like i haven't seen him in days." I replied without getting off of Matt.
He wrapped his arms around my waist, "It's only been a couple hours. I'd hate to see what you would do if we didn't see each other for day's." she said grinning.
I pushed him playfully, "Get your mind out of the gutter."

Matt and Jamie laughed and the night went on.
