Introduction
Why do these things always happen to me?
The girl who - furniture and spill drink crush
Look forward to party for months
Chance to be the cool girl
Gonna be the party of the year
para 1
Spent hours getting ready
Love party’s but also the beforehand (getting ready)
Blasting out out Maneater by Nelly Furtado through Alexa
Dancing and singing around my room as I sang way better than Nelly Furtado into hairbrush
Para 2
spent lifetime cleansing, exfoliating and moisturising, plucking and polishing - along with all the other things my dad rolls his eyes at when I talk about.
Smiled at reflection - playing with bunny tail and drawing in whiskers
Katie’s idea to go as bunnies
Shrugged when she mentioned it however secretly love it
Do you know the hardest part of my prettifying procedure? It was somehow doing my make-up as a Playboy bunny AND making sure my fake tan didn't make me look like a huge carrot. I just about pulled it off.
Para 3
Arrive in taxi
Skipped down drive way + lawn look like Buckingham Palace
Felt like princess.. well a rabbit princess’s if it exits
Opened up the door hopped into the hall way
My heart sank. I stood, under the hot glares of each and every person around me, not knowing if I should laugh or cry.
There was no Peter Pans, pirates or princesses in sight.
Only person in fancy dress
People whispering sniggering - even heard Someone oink
Dialogue
'Didn't you get the message?' A girl I didn't know hissed. 'It's not fancy dress.'
2. 'Um, no I didn't,' I replied as I was panning the room trying to find something to hit her with. Only joking. I am a nice rabbit after all.
Para 4
Looked down at myself.
Noticed whiskers in the reflection of the stained-glass windows.
Grinned at the sight.
Pushed up my white, plush bunny tail stitched onto the back of my dress.
Strutted to the dance floor with everyone's eyes on me.
Sniggering turned into smiling and clapping.
Started to dance.
The song changed to "Maneater" by Nelly Furtado.
Whooped as the song played through the speakers.
Para 5
Continued dancing as the song played.
Heard the front door slam shut.
Heard a little scream from a familiar voice.
Saw a figure trudging towards me.
Noticed rabbit ears bobbing above the crowd.
Final
This is so embarrassing!' Katie groaned.
'What are you talking about?' I smiled, clearly taking Katie by surprise.
'I think we look fantastic.'
Quickly, the worst night ever and turned into the best one. I smiled as I thought to myself: why do these things always happen to me?
