Chapter 12 : Truth or Dare

"Rachel, I don't know. This one?" I held up a deep red velvet dress against myself, its plunging neckline and thigh-high slit screaming boldness I wasn't sure I possessed. I wasn't even sure why I had bought that dress in the first place.

"Absolutely not," Rachel scoffed from her position sprawled across her bed, makeup strewn around her like the aftermath of a beauty tornado. "That's way too Jessica Rabbit. Here." She leapt up, rifling through my clothes with the expertise of a seasoned stylist until she unearthed a sleek black bodysuit paired with high-waisted shorts. "This is it. It's mysterious, it's edgy, it screams 'I'm here to forget about tall, dark, and broody for one night.'"

I hesitated, fingering the delicate lace detailing along the bodysuit's sleeves. "Are you sure?" Doubt laced my voice as I studied the piece.

"Trust me, Lily," Rachel insisted, her eyes alight with an infectious excitement. "Pair it with those killer boots, and you'll own that party."
