"I hate this, Anne." Mary muttered with much disappointment in light pink lips. How much she hated the feeling of lipstick.

"Stop, you are going to smear it." She pulled her closer her, holding her chin firmly between her thumb and index finger. The mirror shimmered back the reflection of the redhead trying to fix the small smudge mark that was painted halfway across Mary's flushed red skin. "Now don't rub your eyes, I'm not fixing this again for you. I will let you go around looking like a racoon, don't think I won't."

There was no doubt Mary hated doing things like this. Makeup, it had been years since she had even held a tube of lipstick. And now for some strange reason she was wearing a dress, heels (if you could even call them that) and makeup. It was an entirely new experience to the girl now of seventeen. She was smearing her mascara and was already slipping and sliding around in her shoes. How was she going to survive the rest of the night?

"This makes no sense… whats this suppose to do for me exactly?" The brunette tugged endlessly at the bottom hem of her dress desperately wanting it to cover the rest of her legs.

Anne snickered. "Trust me you look like one hot momma'" Finishing the last line of thick black eyeliner that decorated the strong feature in her brown orbs.

Without even a final remark, she was pushed out of the bathroom into the flamboyantly colored living room. Christmas decoration filled the house, draping over everything in its path. Their tree was even crazily decorated.

Mary furrowed her brow when she saw a familiar face grinning at her from across the room. "I swear Kenway, if you don't wipe that smile of your I will wipe it for you." She threatened angrily as she stepped up to the man, folding her arms calmly over her small chest.

. "You look nice." He stopped her arm quickly before it almost slapped him in the face. "I'm serious." He gently held her arm in his hands holding her in place, as Anne ran up with a mistletoe holding it above their head.

"Kiss her already Kenway." Anne chanted. Within seconds Mary and Edwards lips were placed firmly to each others.
