AN Alright here is the next chapter, its kind of a filler but enjoy!
Hailey's POV
I was still leaning against the door crying when Amanda came up to me. From her sharp intake of breath, I knew I looked like crap.
"Are you okay, Hailey?" Amanda asked. I could hear the worry in her voice. She sat down and wrapped her arms around me.
I sighed, "Amanda, I need to tell you something."
"Okay, wait. I know that you're upset, but let me go first. Please?" She requested.
I debated for a couple seconds before answering.
"Sure, go ahead."
"Okay, so I am really excited, because later, Justin and I are going on a date," when she was done a huge grin spread across her face.
"Justin?" I asked as the familiar feeling of my tearless cries came to a stop.
"Yeah, can you believe it? I had to get my eyes checked today and I went to his office. Did you know he was an optometrist?" she asked as she clapped her hands together and thought about Justin.
"Isn't he a little old for you?" I asked her. If only she knew he was 278 years older than her.
"Well, yeah, he's a couple years older than me, but think about it, Hailey. When will I actually get to meet a guy? I'm always being trapped here by you and Scarlet."
Those last sentences made me want to laugh and cry at the same time; if only she knew why we really kept her home.
"Okay, fine, you have a point."
"Thank you!" she yelled as she kissed me on the cheek, "Can you help me get ready?"
"Where's Scarlet, can't she do it? I'm not really in the mood for this right now, Amanda."
"But Scarlet dresses so different than we do, and I want you to help me get ready. Besides, it might make you feel a little better."
"Well, alright." I sighed, giving in.
Amanda could get anything she wanted if she begged.
She pulled me up from where I was sitting, through the dinning room where Scarlet was drawing a picture, and up the stairs to her room.
I opened the door to her walk-in closet and started looking through all her clothes to find a perfect dress for her. I knew what Justin liked, so I was going to do my best. Eventually, I found a strapless dress that had black and blue ruffles.
I tried my best to smile as I handed her the dress, "Try this on."
As soon as she got it on, she twirled around and around as she studied her reflection in the mirror.
"This is perfect!" She said as she flashed me a smile that would make any human's heart race.
I sat her down at the vanity and started on her hair. I straightened it, and then put it in a bun, leaving out her bangs and a few loose strands of hair.
"I love it!" She told me as I started to take out the makeup.
Amanda has always been so pretty and never needed any makeup, so I gave her some mascara and a light shade of eye shadow. For the last touch, I put a light pink lip gloss on her.
"Finished."
"Hailey, this is perfect, thank you so much!" She told me before giving me a hug.
I actually laughed, "You're welcome."
"Well, I'm going to go downstairs and wait for Justin," Amanda said with a huge smile, "Oh, and Hailey?"
"Yeah?"
"We're going to talk when I get home. Just try and relax while I'm gone." She told me sincerely before running down the stairs.
As soon as I heard the door slam and Amanda had left, I went downstairs and sat next to Scarlet.
"Hey, Hailey. Amanda looks great," She told me.
I tried to smile again, but failed, "Thanks. I can't believe she's going on a date with Justin."
"She'll be fine; he wouldn't do anything to hurt her. You know that."
I didn't feel like talking, so I went upstairs to my room. I started to review what had happened with Damien before Amanda came home.
I went to the window and looked out at the beautiful view. I gasped as I saw Damien sitting on the rock outside the house. I turned away quickly, and leaned against my wall, wanting to cry.
Here is the link to the dress Amanda wore.
