They Can't Stop Us From Our Freedom

*Windy's POV*

"WINDY GET OVER HERE YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS DRESS!" my best friend, Lindley called. I glanced over and saw the back of her bleach blonde hair. She pulled the dress off the rack. It was a gorgeous black maxi dress with a cut out on the right shoulder and the right side of the waist. I absolutely loved it. Lindley and I aren't who people think we are. Well we are, kind of I guess. Yeah, we're super popular and love anything girly but secretly, Lindley and I also love punk but if anyone, and I mean ANYONE, knew we would lose our social status. We couldn't be the "emo" ones. Could you imagine how terrible that would be? We've both worked three fucking years to stop being the loners, there is no way we would let something as little as our music taste bring us back to who we once were.

"Ew that is the ugliest dress I've ever seen there is no color on it at all. What have I told you guys, we never ever wear neutrals. And it looks to me that that is solid black. If you want to stand out, you cannot wear something bland. Remember, sparkles and bright colors!" Sydnee told us in the most degrading voice I've ever heard. Sydnee's the main bitch if you couldn't tell. She controls everything we do and everyone around her. If she doesn't approve she is definitely not afraid to tell you. I swear she has no filter. Lindley and I hate her. I mean, who wants to be bossed around all day? The only thing keeping us here is the fact that she gave us our social status and is the only one who can maintain it. If she says anything bad about us, people will know almost immediately, she has that kind of power.

"Lindley, we should just come back without her tomorrow and buy what we want." I whispered as Sydnee ran away to go grab another dress.

"Are you sure? Sydnee will fucking murder us if she finds out we went behind her back, especially to do something she wouldn't approve of."

"Why the hell would I let her find out. She could do so much to ruin our rep if she wanted to. Come on, we've hidden so much from her before, why is this different?"

"Fine," I wanted it anyways why would I say no? I mean, it's not like I follow any rules anyways.

"WINDY! GET OVER HERE THIS DRESS IS PERFECT FOR YOU." Sydnee exclaimed as we ran over to her. It was a gorgeous one shouldered teal dress. I was jealous of Lindley's height, for she was almost 5’7” and i was only 5'2" but in a moment like this I was glad that this dress was too short for her. Sydnee was somewhere in the middle. She is the perfect height for everything, except for maybe basketball. We were both always jealous of her but each of our heights always came in handy for something.

"Hey Lindley look over here." I said as I turned around to see a blue-sequined maxi-dress.

"Oh. My. God. That is the most gorgeous dress I have ever seen in my life." she said almost speechless. I could tell Sydnee was getting frustrated, she had found nothing and we were done.

"OH MY FUCKING GOD! YOU LOOK ABSOLUTELY PERFECT IN THAT DRESS!" Lindley exclaimed as I walked out of the dressing room. I could have sworn I saw jealousy flash across Sydnee's face for a split second but it was gone in a moment. She was so good at faking everything, that was her whole life: being fake. So far today Lindley and I have looked absolutely amazing in everything we've tried on but Sydnee hasn't found a thing. We were helping to host a party for our parents tonight and we all needed outfits. Our parents decided to all host a spring party with all of their big corporations and we had to wait on them and "make a good impression", to quote my mom (gross).

"Yeah, Windy, I agree with Lindley. That dress is perfect on you," Sydnee said with fake enthusiasm, although I wasn't even really listening nor did I care; I was too in love with this dress. The blue accented my eyes perfectly and the length was perfect, not too short and not too long.

"I am totally gonna buy this!" I said as I rushed back into the dressing room. I came out and Lindley went in.

"LINDS, OH MY GOD YOU'RE PERFECT." I exclaimed when she came out. This time, Sydnee didn't say anything; she just looked away. She was so done with this. Lindley gave me a depressed look and I mouthed "ignore her". Once we all had our outfits, we left. I could tell Sydnee was frustrated. She ended up with a plain blue dress and simple pumps. It kind of looked as if she was about to go clubbing, I wonder how our parents would react to that. Well, more like how Lindley's and her parents would react. My parents couldn't care less about what my friends and I do.
