Just One Kiss
Chapter 3
"Duncan!" The petite girl giggled. Her black hair was falling into her eyes as the two wrestled around on the bed. "S-Stop i-i-i-t!" Gwen cried out as the teenage boy kept on tickling her ribs over and over again.
Duncan finally collapsed onto the bed beside his best friend. The two were panting heavily, trying their best not to burst out laughing again.
Gwen had been living across the street from Duncan for five years now. In that short period of time, their friendship had only grown and grown. Duncan and Gwen were as close as close could be. They did almost everything together. Nothing was going to tear them apart.
"JUST MAKE-OUT AND GET IT OVER WITH!" A small voice came from another room in Gwen's house. The twelve-year-old rolled her eyes.
"SHUT UP, LIAM!" She yelled back at her younger brother, sitting up on her bed.
"Mommy said you can't say shut up, Gwen!" Came another small voice.
Gwen's even younger brother always had to join in on any conversation going on in the house, and it was usually to tell Gwen she was doing something wrong.
"MOM'S NOT HERE!" Gwen screamed back. That shut the two of them up. "Why does she always leave me with them?" She asked Duncan, flopping back down on the bed and turning her head to face him.
"I have no idea." Duncan replied, smiling.
He found it a good thing that he was the youngest out of his own three siblings and himself. But he was always there for Gwen whenever she was left alone in the house with her two baby brothers. After all, that is what best friends are for.
Gwen sat at the dressing table, stroking her shoulder length jet black hair. Her face was turned into a sour scowl. The thirteen year old pulled open the top drawer with such a force that it almost came off in her hands.
The teen girl fumbled around in the drawer, searching for the scissors. She knew her mother hid them there to stop her baby brothers from getting at them and seriously injuring themselves.
She finally found them. This was definitely what she wanted to do. She knew her mother was going to freak out, but she wanted to do it. Gwen was prepared to face whatever consequences her mother was going to throw her way once she found out, but Gwen just didn't care at that moment.
The dark haired girl pulled out the nearest hair tie and collected all her hair in her hands. Gwen felt too much like part of the 'in-crowd'. She didn't believe she had any individuality like she wanted at school. All the girls in her class had the exact same hairstyle as her, and her mother refused to pay for Gwen to get a new haircut.
She brought the cool blades up to her hair, taking in a deep breath for courage, before snipping across her hair in one swift movement. All of her black locks fell instantly to the floor, and Gwen smiled. She felt much better now.
"Huh?" Duncan yawned, opening up his bedroom window. Gwen was stood outside on the small roof, staring at him with tears in her eyes. "Gwen?" The teen boy blinked his eyes a few times, but he was sure it was Gwen.
Duncan moved out the way so Gwen could climb into his bedroom at the early hour of the morning. Her face was bright red and her eyes were slightly puffy, with more tears brimming the edges.
"What...What happened?" Duncan asked, referring to her now short hair.
"I-I cut it." Gwen sniffled, rubbing her stinging eyes.
"You look beautiful." Duncan told her, wrapping his arms around Gwen. She looked like she had been through hell from her mother because of it, but she really did look beautiful to him. But that's what best friends are for.
