Lip-gloss

For OXOXStayStrongXOXO's contest.

Here we go…

UGH! Why can't I just find the right lip-gloss? I know I have watermelon in here somewhere. Tawni told me that anything with the flavor of watermelon is Chad's favorite taste.

I have strawberry, cherry, blueberry, piña coolatta, but no watermelon!

"Usually I'm against this but if you're so desperate for a good lipgloss, just use my Cocoa Mocoa Cocoa. But only for your meeting with Chad. After that, I want you to wipe it off your lips and give me back the tube," Tawni said strictly.

"I don't want Cocoa Mocoa Cocoa. I want my watermelon blast," I whined.

"Knock, knock," a cocky voice said from the door of our dressing room.

I was still rifling through my lip glosses when I said, "Hey, Chad."

"What did you call me here for?"

By this time, Tawni has already left for her date with a Teen Gladiator.

"Oh, I don't remember…" I lied. Truthfully I called him here to finally tell him that I liked him as more than a friend.

"I can tell you're lying. Just tell me," he said encouragingly.

"I can't." It's true. I can't tell him I like him, most likely get a kiss, when I'm not wearing his favorite flavor.

"Why not, Monroe?" he said, slowly coming closer. I still had strawberry lip-gloss on from when I put it on this morning. I desperately need my watermelon though.

"Because! I've been trying to find my watermelon lip-gloss and I don't feel like talking to anybody until I am wearing it. Besides, I don't like the taste of the strawberry kind that I am wearing!" I burst. I quieted down my voice a bit. "I've been trying out all my flavors but I can't choose one. They're either the wrong taste, or too sticky or too slimy," I complained.

Chad slowly pulled me in by the waist and planted a kiss on my lips. "I like you, Monroe... And that strawberry lip-gloss. Wanna see how the cherry tastes?" he asked with a suggestive wink.

I quickly wiped off the strawberry and smeared on the cherry. He kissed me again. "I like you, too, Cooper," I said with a soft voice. He had that signature smirk on his face.

He rummaged through the drawer and handed me a different lip-gloss— one that I didn't see during my search. Without looking at the label, I smeared it on my lips. Before I could even get a taste, Chad's lips were firmly planted on mine. He actually moaned. "Mmm, my favorite. Watermelon." And with that said, we continued to kiss with me reapplying my lip-gloss every so often.

Short fanfic for OXOXStayStrongXOXO's contest. The word she gave me was lipgloss… if you couldn't guess that already… ;)
