Disclaimer: I really wish I didn't have to write this stupid thing every time I write a new chapter. But I don't want to get sued so I don't own anything Stephenie Meyer does.
Okay so here's chapter four. I really hope you like it. I like this chapter. But that's me. Anyway enjoy :)
Right before she stepped through that door I stood up. I really didn't know what to expect. I mean I knew what Alice looked like but I really didn't know what she was like in person. My palms were sweating and I worried about everything. Like what if I didn't know what to say? What if she doesn't like the way I do her makeup? Or worse what if she doesn't think I'm good enough to do her makeup for her?
I was pulled from my thoughts when she walked in. I don't even think words could describe this girl. She was wearing some kind of designer jeans and a dressier shirt. You could tell by looking at her that she liked to look good where ever she went. Of course she had her regular spiky hair due. Her face was beautiful. I knew this but up close and in person it was 100 time more beautiful than any picture ever taken of her. Then she said "Oh hello. Who's this?" She had on the cutest puzzled expression. Stupid, stupid, stupid I scolded myself. I did not just think of Alice, someone I didn't even know, as cute.
"Oh I'm Bella. I'm the friend of the light person." Smooth Bella the light person!I laughed nervously. "they said I could stay here until the show started. I hope you don't mind." I sounded so stupid. Play it cool Bella you only get one chance to make a first impression.
She smiled "No I don't mind at all. It's nice to see a new face around here." her smile widened.
I couldn't help but smile back. "It's nice to finally meet you Ms. Brandon." I said as I stuck out my hand.
She giggled and hugged me totally ignoring my hand. It was a warm hug. I had to bend down a bit because she was so short. I thought hugging her was going to be really awkward because I have only known her for about a minute but as it turned out her body seemed to fit nicely into mine. Maybe that's a sing... Okay Bella let's not get our hopes up. Plus who says she plays for that team? Who says I play for that team for that matter?
"We're going to be great friends Bella. I can just feel it." She whispered into my ear, in my mind it was in a seductive way but I could be reading it all the wrong way. Every cell in my body went crazy. I can't believe what Alice just said to me. And she whispered it in my ear none the less. I really need to calm down. She's human too. I said to myself remembering Angela's words. "And Ms. Brandon is my mother's name. Please call me Alice." She said smiling once again. Gosh she had a beautiful smile. And it was very contagious.
"Now Alice shall we start on your makeup." her makeup artist cut in. I never got his name did I? I tried to remember. I don't think I did. "Bella here is going to help me. She's here so we may as well put her to work."
She looked impressed. What she didn't know I could do makeup? "Wow Bella I didn't know you were an assistant makeup artist," she said in surprise. She looked adorable. There I go again. Really? Can't I have a normal mind? I mean I sounded like a creepy stalker guy that has no business in thinking about a younger (okay, so Alice wasn't younger than me but still. Not my point) girl that way. Isn't it crazy to be scolding yourself in your head? That's just like having a conversation with yourself right...
As I was babbling like a idiot I realized I never answered Alice but that's okay because before I could talk Mr. Purple Pants man (okay I really don't know where that came from but I don't know his name and I need to call him something) cut in "She's not. Carlos was unable to make it today. And she looks like she can apply makeup pretty well."
"Okay that's fine." Alice said. As she studied my makeup her eyes caught mine and I got lost in them. I could probably get lost in them for hours. They were very bright blue, and blue is my favorite color. They were very beautiful, as beautiful as eyes can be. So when did I become attracted to women? I asked myself. May it's just Alice? Or maybe it doesn't even count as an attraction because anyone would agree that Alice Brandon is in fact attractive.
"Yeah she is pretty good'" she said walking over to her chair to sit down. Her chair was in front of a huge mirror that was against one of the walls. The mirror was bordered with lots of lights. I also had a counter in front of it that was filled with all kinds of hair and makeup products. There were so many products they could start their own beauty store.
I fallowed Mr. Purple Pants over to the counter where he showed me the makeup. "Okay we'll start with her foundation. But you'll need to wash her face with some cleansing wipes." He said pointing to a small box that had an Olay label on it. I used the same ones on my face in the morning. They are also good for taking off makeup which comes in handy when you're out late because it's easier than washing your face.
"Are you saying my face is dirty?" Alice asked jokingly as she giggled. I giggled too, I couldn't help it. She was so intoxicating it's hard not to be happy when she's in the room. I wondered briefly whether it was just an effect she had on me or if it was with everyone she's in the same room with. I glanced over at Mr. Purple Pants, he didn't look overly excited like I felt.
I shook that thought off and grabbed a wipe and brought to Alice's face. Her eyes caught mine again, but it didn't go as deep this time, because it wasn't as long. Her eyes just paused for a second before she closed them and let me work on cleaning her face. After I was done thoroughly wiping her face which wasn't dirty like at all, I did mention she looked like the type that liked to look good where ever she went. After I threw out the little wipe I looked at Mr. Purple Pants.
"Now I want you to put on the foundation and the I'll do her eyes and blush and I'll let you do her lips." He said with a smile. Then I thought I heard him mumble "I never liked doing lips anyway"
As I started Rubbing in her foundation it suddenly accrued to me that I would be putting on her lip gloss, which is dangerously close to her face. Keep calm. She's human too. A very talented, beautiful human. Okay again? You know what, I'm not even going to scold this time because it won't help. Gosh I think a lot in my head. After I finished her I stepped aside and went to the sink to wash my hands. Washing my hands didn't take long, but Mr. Purple Pants was very slow. He took his time and made the blush look perfect. Even though it didn't take much to make someone like Alice look perfect, she did pretty good on her own. Me on the other hand, it would take hours to make me look great. Trust me I have done it a few times.
"What color do you want for your eye shadow?" He asked.
"I'm feeling blue today. Like a very calming type of blue." Alice said making a very cute gesture with her hands. Again with the thoughts? I asked my inner self.
He didn't say anything just went on with the eye shadow, putting it on lightly and with care. After that Alice said black eyeliner, which personally I don't know why anyone would want a different color.
He put the mascara on after that, and made sure there were no clumps.
"Bella can you hand me that lip gloss?" Alice asked pointing, with a very mischievous, cute smile on her face. Okay I get the feeling that she's up to something, but I obeyed without question.
"Sure." I said. And I handed it to her
"Now bring your face over here" She said. I did what she said without even thinking.
She opened the lip gloss and put it on my lips slowly. The whole time I was staring into her eyes and for the second time I got lost in them. I wanted to look away and stop mysekf before I looked like a freak but I couldn't help it. Her eyes were so captivating I didn't think I had it in me to look away.
When she was finished she said "There now you have on the official lip gloss of Alice Brandon," She giggled after that.
I giggled too. I couldn't help myself. It was so easy to get lost in time with her.
"Can I see that for a second?" I asked pointing to the lip gloss. She didn't say she just handed it to me. I put it on her. As I put it on her I got lost in the fullness of her lips. She closed her eyes. I think she's really enjoying this. she opened her eyes when I was done and I said. "There now we officially put on each other's lip gloss." I lingered by her lips for a second and stared into her eyes. I can't begin to explain how I feel right now. I know it's her behind all these happy feelings. Why do I feel like this? Why does she make me want to scream? I shouldn't feel like this because I just met her and I don't know anything about her. I have to get a grip on reality, which includes me being a huge fan of Alice Brandon but not knowing a thing about the real her. Maybe if she is right about us being friends then I can get to know her. But for some reason the desire to know her was very strong. As I was thinking about this I suddenly wanted to ask her a million questions about herself and listen to her answers. For now I should push these thoughts and feelings aside and out of my mind. And that's what I did.
When I was finished so looked at Mr. Purple Pants, who was settled into the same chair he sat in before, and asked "How long till I have to get dressed?"
Mr. Purple Pants looked at his watch. "Well it's only seven so a lot of hours. But I would go check with the director."
"Alright. Thanks James" she said getting off the chair. So that's Mr. Purple Pants' name. "Bella would you like to come on a joy ride in my Porsche?" she asked. Why in the world would I say no?
Okay don't kill me please. Life really sucks. My mom told me we might be moving and my reaction was to start balling. Not the greatest reaction ever but I don't want to move and leave my school and my friends. Anyway tell me what you think about this chapter :).
