She grabbed my hand, and we began heading upstairs. I looked over my shoulder and winked at Will. The smile on his face made my knees weak, and my insides craved his touch again.
“I love you, Lex.”
I loved how my mother and father would always tell each other how they loved the other more. Will and I had picked it up, and every time I said it to him, he would smile bigger.
“I love you more.”
Will chuckled.
Grace pulled my arm harder to get me to speed it up. “Jesus, y’all can go a few minutes without each other.”
An hour later, I looked at all five of us.
“Holy shit. We look good!” Lauren said with a giggle.
Lauren was probably the sweetest one of the bunch. Hearing her swear always made me chuckle. Taylor was just as sweet but far more innocent.
“Hell yeah, we do. We are five hot bitches,” Grace said, walking up to Libby and messing with her hair.
I looked Libby up and down. She had on one of Grace’s dresses. It was a silver cocktail dress with a scooped back that stopped just shy of her ass. I was sure just a few more inches, and we’d be able to see the string of her thong. Her blonde hair was piled on top of her head with curls hanging down to frame her face. Taylor had done Libby’s makeup, and her dark smoky eyes and red lipstick had even me catching my breath. I knew what Grace and Taylor were up to. They had made Libby look so incredibly hot that Luke was gonna shit his pants when he laid his eyes on her.
“Damn, baby sister. You. Look. Hot.” Maegan smiled and looked at Taylor.
Taylor was dressed in a simple black cocktail dress with silver accents and a high slit on the side. Her push-up bra showed more cleavage than I’d ever seen Taylor display, and it made her look about three years older than she was.
Taylor blushed and smiled.
“You do look beautiful,” Lauren said with a smile.
I glanced over and looked at Lauren. She had on a teal dress that hugged her curves in all the right ways. Her blonde hair was done so that half was up with the other half hanging down. The color of the dress brought out the color of her blue eyes even more. Taylor had also done Lauren’s makeup, and she looked breathtaking. My poor baby brother was gonna be whimpering all night while watching Lauren dance in that dress.
Grace, of course, looked like a knockout. She had on a beige cocktail dress. If it were longer, she would look like she’d stepped out of The Great Gatsby. Her light-brown hair was done in a French twist, and her makeup had been done to look very natural.
I stared at my best friend. She was so beautiful, yet she had no clue how beautiful she was. She not only looked like Aunt Ari, but she also had her mother’s spit and fire as well.
