Ember had rolled her eyes at Sadie, but a smile played on her face. She knew Sadie would gloat about Ember asking for help, finally, but her excitement was endearing to Ember, and she stood awaiting the outfit Sadie would pick. Ember mentally challenged herself right there and then, in Sadie's doorway, that whatever Sadie picked, she would wear. She needed to get out of her comfort zone, needed to challenge herself more. She just found herself praying to God it wasn't a skirt she'd constantly have to pull down to feel comfortable in. And while Ember wasn't a prude nor ashamed of her body, she didn't want to wear too revealing clothes. 

She looked as her already beautifully dressed friend disappeared into the walk-in closet. She didn't know many people at the party, but she knew Christian, her gym buddy that made her feel safe and kept men from ogling her too much. She'd seen Jasmine before, and she knew Rhys. Somewhat. In a weird way. 

She hadn't expected to almost run someone over on her bike one day, but Ember was utterly lost, slightly panicked, and then she almost ran over Rhys on his skateboard. She hadn't expected to find the author of one of her favourite books in front of her bike as she hit the brakes, her wheels stretching to a stop and almost launching herself off the bike, but she recognised him right away. Apologised profusely at him. When she admitted she was lost, and her phone had died, she told him her address without thinking. Rhys had smiled at her then, admitting he lived in the same building. They went back together, him on his skateboard, her on his bike. 

They had spent a couple of times together navigating LA like that. And Ember appreciated it more than she'd let Rhys know. She was excited to see him, felt safe to see Christian, and felt absolutely scared to meet the rest. At the very least, Ember was happy to be entering the party with Sadie at her side.

When Sadie came back out of the closet, a garment in hand, Ember pushed herself off the doorway post and stood straight, eager to see what Sadie had chosen for her. She looked so happy and excited, Ember couldn't possibly say no to anything even if it was fucking terrible. [color=lightcoral]"It will look absolutely stunning on you."[/color] And it wasn't terrible, at all. The Dutch woman chuckled, grateful that Sadie had chosen something with pants, and not a skirt. It actually looked.. really nice. [color=E59866]"I- wow. Okay."[/color] Ember took the jumpsuit from Sadie before embracing her in a one-armed hug. [color=E59866]"Thank you Sadie. I'll go try it on. We have to leave soon."[/color]

Racing back to her bedroom, Ember put on the jumpsuit. It hugged her body just right and flattered her shoulders. The decollete was a bit more than Ember was used to, but even she had to admit it perfectly showed off her assets without being obtuse about it. Since the jumpsuit was black, Ember decided to go for a colourful orange [url=https://cdn.webshopapp.com/shops/7547/files/416703446/650x650x2/oranje-suede-plateau-sandaletten-met-grote-hak.jpg]pumps[/url]. A pair she had bought, but never worn. Fuck it, now's the time. 

Ember spend a little more time fixing her hair and make-up, wearing a lovely nude colour on her lips, before leaving her bedroom again. She grabbed the containers of food she had left in their kitchen and called out to Sade. [color=E59866]"Sades! I'm ready to leave."[/color]
