Erica's Special Night:

Synopysis: It's a special night in all girl's lives, Prom Night, a night that takes weeks of preparation and for Erica Sanders it was no different, except, when she left the house, and her parents, for prom, she was wearing one thing and when she arrived at the event, something entirely different. You see, Erica wanted tonight to be special, perfect, unforgettable, her dream, and for her parents to know what she had planned would ruin it. They would most likely NEVER have allowed her to attend the way she had been planning for months. This was her night, her debut, her chance to express who she she wanted to define herself as and nothing was going to get in her way; not her parent's idea about her, nothing. The only other person who knew Erica's plans was her best friend and next door neighbor, Rachel, who had been helping her plan this night for months. Now the night is here and everything is going wonderfully. But, will it continue to once the night is over, she returns home and reveals to her parents her new look, the new Erica. How will it go? Will they accept or reject her and insist she go back to who she was?...

Exerpt from Ch.1: ". . . Erica again took a deep breath, cleared her mind, told herself everything was going to be okay, turned the doorknob and stepped into the kitchen, quietly closing the door behind her. . .

Standing in the kitchen, shaking like a leaf, she thought about her parents sitting in the next room, waiting for her to return from the prom. . . .Another deep breath to calm her nerves and as she exhaled she heard the sound of the television go away, muted.

"How was the prom, dear?" her mother called to her.

"The prom was great", she answered.

The prom, had not been "everything" she had hoped, but in ways, more than she could have imagined, and she did not have any regrets, until now. Now she was having second thought's about what she was about to tell them.

"Come on in here and tell us all about it," her mother said.

Well, she knew this was it. The moment had arrived and she was about to have their undivided attention, for there was no way they would be able to look at that brand-new 86" flat panel 3D LCD television hanging on the wall, once she stepped into the room.

As she made a step forward she nervously called out, "Mom, Dad I've got something I need to tell you."

Any parent could hear the reluctance in the statement; they heard it many times over the years. "Mom, - I spilled my milk," "Mom, Dad - I broke the lamp," "Dad - I--um, I wrecked the car." Could any words prepare them for what was behind the statement this time?

Heels clicking lightly on the hardwood floor, Erica stepped down the hall towards the family room, through the doorway next to the television, and into the light."
