Chapter 4: Skip Day
My Friday morning began normally. I decided to give up on Bash not seeing me without makeup on. He usually came in around 8 am and woke me up. I always showered the night before so I wouldn't have to get up earlier.
Bash laid down on my bed while I got ready for my first class that started at 8:30, which I had with him, Transmutation. The good thing about classes here, was you only had to attend 3 of each of your abilities a week.
I brushed my long mane of hair and I plugged my zebra print flat iron into the wall. I quickly ran the flat iron through my hair just to get some of the random curls out. I turned it off and stepped into my room.
Bash was asleep on his stomach. I smiled at the adorable sight. His curly, black hair was a mess on my pillow. He was dressed in a plain black hoodie and some dark jeans with grey vans and his beanie. His 6'0 frame barely fit on my bed. I took the opportunity of him sleeping to change out of my pajamas.
I slipped on some grey leggings, a tight black tank top and some purple vans. I looked myself over in the mirror and smiled. Simple.
I walked over to the bed to sit beside Bash. He was snoring very lightly which made a smile tug at the corners of my lips. I moved some of the hair that was brushing against his cheek bones gently. His skin was soft and warm against the pads of my fingers. I pulled my hand away.
"Bash, Get up. Class starts in 10 minutes." I said, placing my hand on his shoulder and gently shaking his long body. He groaned.
"Lydia Hazel. I'm tired as hell." He said, his sleepy voice was sexy.
"I am too. You don't see me sleeping." I said, poking his left arm playfully.
"Lay down with me and I'll think about going to class." He said, groggily. I pondered this request for a second. I decided that it was friendly and that I shouldn't get my hopes up.
"Fine." I said. He flipped over on his back and smiled. He scooted over and patted the spot next to him. I laid my head on his shoulder and he had his arm around me.
"You wouldn't happen to want to attend a party, Would you?" Bash asked me, I could hear his heart beating quietly in his chest. I smiled.
"What kind of party would it happen to be? I don't feel like eating my weight in birthday cake today." I said, looking up at him.
"Blacklight party one of my buddies is throwing. He throws amazing parties. He is only a grade ahead of us. His brother is in a frat that is housed in the french quarter. We should definitely go." He said, smiling.
"Well, It sounds like fun. Put we don't have any neon or black light paint or anything. You know, That glowy stuff." I said, thinking about one of my friends that went to a party like the one he described.
"Looks like we'll have to go into town and buy some." He said, looking down at me with a smile.
"Would Cordelia let us leave?" I asked, curious.
"School policy says that students may leave if a supervisor knows in advance. And as long as someone doesn't go by themselves. So we are in the clear." His smile bright and happy.
"I'd love to go to the party with you."
"It doesn't start until 10 tonight so we have some time to kill."
"Black light party on a Friday with my best friend. This is going to be good."
We decided to skip our classes for today. We both had our classes for this week finished anyway.
We took his car and headed into town. We stopped at this party store.
"They should have they glow paint in here." He said as we pulled into the store's parking lot.
We walked into the huge ass party store and asked the clerk where the glow in the dark supplies were. He pointed us to the back of the store.
We looked around for different colored paints. They had purple, white, black, pink, blue, yellow orange and green.
"What do you want painted on you, Lydia Hazel?" Bash asked while looking at the different brands of paints.
"I want to be painted a white tiger. I love tigers." I said, turning on a single black light they had on sale.
"I'd love to paint you as a tiger. Me, however, I want to be painted as a skull. That would be sick." He said, looking over to me.
"It would be my pleasure to paint you, Bash." He smiled.
"Do you just want to get one of each?" He asked, coming to stand behind me.
"Yeah, but we should get more than one of the black and white. Since painting both of us are wanting to be painted something white."
He nodded. He picked up a few of black and white and one of the rest of the colors. He put them in a shopping basket.
We headed up to the front to pay for the paint. The clerk set down the book he was reading and smiled at us. He started to check us out.
"You guys going to the frat black light party tonight? I heard it's going to be amazing." He said, his blonde hair barely grown out from a buzzcut.
"Yeah, my buddies' brother is throwing it. Are you going?" Bash said, as he looked around at the balloons.
"Hell yeah man. I'm in that frat." The clerk said, bagging up the last of our paint. I handed the clerk the money and ignored Bash when he tried to pay.
"See you there." Bash said, giving the guy a high five.
"See you." The guy said to me, with a wink. I blushed as we headed out the door. Bash didn't notice him wink.
"Now where to, Lydia Hazel?" Bash asked as he opened the car door for me.
"Well now to the mall. We need to find some clothes for tonight. Well At least I do." I said, smiling over to him
We arrived at the mall and found our way to the Nike store, where Bash wanted to go first.
"What should I wear to the party of the year?" He asked, browsing the white muscle shirts.
"Something that shows off your biceps, that's for sure." I thought outloud. I blushed when he turned to me. His smile charming.
"Have you been looking, Lydia Hazel?" He said, he paused in front of me. He stared down at me, grinning. I blushed even harder.
"Uh no. Just saying. There will be girls there, right?" I said, saving myself from embarrassment.
"Not girls that I want." He said before turning back around. He looked into my eyes for just a moment too long...
He decided on a white Nike muscle tank that would cling to his body and some white board shorts. Not that I was complaining.
He paid for his outfit then we headed to Rue 21 that was a few stores down. We looked around and my eye was caught by white yoga shorts with a galaxy band. I picked up my size and continued to look.
"What did you want to wear?" Bash said, looking around at the girlish clothes. He never understood the way girls worked. I giggled.
"I was going to find some sort of bandeau." I said, looking around.
"What the hell is that?" He asked, feeling some fuzzy pants that were on a pajama rack.
"It's like a dressy sports bra." I said with a chuckle. I found the bandeaus. They hand a variety of different colors. Black, white with pink lace, green, purple. I decided on an underwire white one with black lace that was shaped like a bow.
I found Bash in the guys' section and asked him what he thought. I held up the shorts and bandeau to my body and he smiled.
"You would rock that." He said, looking me up and down. I blushed a little.
"I have an old pair of white converse I can wear with it." I said with a smile. I turned to the check out.
I paid for my party outfit and we decided to look around more and go out to lunch before heading back to the Academy. It was around 6 when we got back
