“Lou, if you don’t hurry, we’ll be late.” Opal grabbed her camera bag and headed to the door.

“I know, I know. I’m getting my shoes right now.”

Opal opened the door and waited. When she saw Lou, she pointed to her ripped jeans. “You’re not wearing that.”

Lou held out her hands in question. “What’s wrong with what I’m wearing?” She cupped her breasts. “I put on a bra for this thing.”

“You can’t wear jeans to a formal thing like this.” Opal closed the door and walked down the hall.

Lou was an incredible roommate and had become a close friend. Opie was unsure at first, but Sybil had vouched for the honey badger shifter. However, she did know how to aggravate Opie.

“What the hell, Opie? We’re working.”

“It’s like when we work a wedding. Yes, we wear comfortable clothes, but they are also nice and presentable. Holey jeans are not acceptable.”

Lou stomped to her room, yanked the door, and went to her closet. Opie followed and sat on the bed. After sorting through the clothes hanging in her closet, Lou declared, “I have nothing that would be acceptable.” She used air quotes to mimic Opie.

“I have something you can wear.” Opie left the room and brought back her favorite black jumpsuit.

Lou took it and wrinkled her face.

“What?” Opie asked.

“This looks like something from the Housewives-Wanting-to-Be-Cool catalog. I’m not wearing this.”

Opie jerked the hanger from her hand. “Fine, then go look in my closet and find something.”

“Grr.” She brushed past her roommate, stomping the entire way down the hall.

Lou walked back to her room. “Um, Opie, what’s going on?”

Opie’s eyes moved around the room to avoid eye contact. “What are you talking about? We’re going to be late if you don’t hurry.”

Lou walked to the side of the bed where Opie sat and pointed to her fancy heels. Then she noticed the short skirt and the low-cut scooped blouse. “Opal, who’s coming to this thing tonight?”

“No one. A lot of people. Oh, I don’t know.” She uncrossed her legs and stood up. “Just wear what you have on, I don’t care. But we have to go.”

Lou snapped her fingers. “It’s that guy you mentioned. The one in the auction.” She stepped in close and rubbed her shoulder against Opie’s.

Opie’s face grew crimson, and she couldn’t hold in a smile. “His name is Dominic and, and, oh, I don’t know.”

“How much money do you have?”

Opie pulled her friend to sit next to her and giggled. “I only have twenty-five hundred. I can’t believe I’m even doing this. Can you imagine? How desperate do I have to be to buy a date?”

“Isn’t this more about the fundraising than anything else?”

“Yeah, but you haven’t seen him. He’s so hot. I mean, like I want to just spread peanut butter all over his chest and lick it off.”

“Dang, maybe I should put in a bid.”

Opie froze. Lou couldn’t help but laugh. “I’m kidding. I’m kidding.”

Opie let out the air she held. She was wound tighter than a honey badger about to pounce for the kill.
