Please forgive the first chapter. I wasn't aware it would upload like that. I hope this one turns out better.
I stood by the casket of my father as it slowly entered down into the ground. Tears fell freely down my makeup free face as she dropped a white rose down onto the casket. My friend with black hair wrapped her arms around me in a way to try to comfort me as we walked away from the grave and to a red car.
The black haired girl got in the driver side after she helped the me get inside on the passenger side. We drove away in silence all the way to an apartment not too far away. We walked inside, and I plopped down on a dark blue beaten up couch.
"Pearl, do you want anything to drink?" the black haired girl asked.
"I'm fine but thanks, Carla," I said as she stared at the floor.
"Okay, well I'm going to go change out of this skirt," Carla said as she walked into a hallway were a few doors were.
I just sat there until my friend that was eighteen returned. Carla returned in the same black long sleeved shirt, but she changed her black skirt in for a pair of black skinny jeans, her flats turned into platform boots with buckles, and added her purple spiked collar along with other accessories.
I looked up at my friend, "you look nice."
"Thanks, and so will you," Carla said as she grabbed my hand and tried to get me off the couch.
"Carla," I whined.
"Come on, you have to leave for Washington tomorrow, so lets have some fun before you have to go."
I caved in and got up to let her friend dress her up. We walked down the hallway to the last door where Carla's bedroom was. I sat down on the bed while my friend went through my suitcase.
"No. No. No," Carla kept saying as she kept going through them. Finally she came across a green and black plaid skirt with a few chains hanging off of it, fishnet tights, and a long sleeved black top with a plunging neck line. She threw them at me. "Put those on."
Carla went looking through her accessories (since mine had all been shipped to Washington) for me to wear. I finished getting dressed right when she turned around with accessories in her hands. She had bat dangly earrings, small black hoops and black studs, for the three holes in my ears. She also hand black studded bracelets for each of my arms and a collar with bats on it. She put all of them on me before teasing my hair. She then broke out her makeup. She used black and green eye shadow with black eyeliner and black lipstick.
"Feel better?" Carla asked as she saw my face soften in expression after I saw my outfit.
"A little," I said with a small smile. "What are your plans for us tonight?"
"Lets go to the movies," she said as she grabbed my hand and our purses and dashed out the door.
We didn't take the car for the movie theater was just a few blocks away. We interlocked our arms and talked about all of our fun times together since we met a few years ago. We got our tickets, though I'm not sure how the guy understood us through our laughing. We got tickets to see a horror movie. We went in sat waiting on the movie again. There were a few guys behind us whistling at us. We laughed. We got back to her apartment that worn out. We fell asleep still in our clothes.
