Nothing to say today, happy….Thursday.
I looked down at the picture of charlotte and smiled, kissing the middle of it. "soon, honey, soon" I repeated while putting the photo back into the back of my drawer.
I got up out of my bed and walked over to the door. "god-damn it" I whispered as I stroked my skin light with the tips of my fingers. I opened the door and walked down the hall. When I reached a door I began knocking on it.
"what?" Elektra yelled. I rolled my eyes "lose the attitude, can I talk to you?" I asked, she huffed and I heard foot steps coming towards the door, the door swung open.
"what do you wan-…what happen to your face?" she asked raising her eyes brows in shock. I hung my head towards the floor. "I don't know, can I borrow some foundation to cover it up?" I pleaded.
She sighed then motioned me to come in. I closed the door behind me and followed her over to her bed. "sit down" she ordered. I sat down and she got out a huge make up bag. "you're going to need some powder too" she said handing me some liquid foundation and then some powder.
"cheers, Elektra" I said gratefully. She nodded and I walked out back to my room. I finished applying the make up in about 30 minutes. Then walked down stairs to the living room.
As I entered everyone seemed to become speechless, but not in a good way. "someone call willy wonka one of his umpa lumpa's 'ave escaped." liam yelled as he laughed at me.
I blushed "does it look that bad?" I asked Elektra, who looked like she was about to explode with laughter. "yeah, come on" she took me by the wrist and led me up the stairs, grabbing the make up form my room then walking back into her room.
"Your not used to wearing make up are you" she said with a smirk. I shrugged "I only wear light foundation, my skin colour" I replied, sitting on her bed.
She took a make up wipe and threw it to me. I caught it then started to take of the foundation. "god, your skin's even more red! Are you allergic to foundation or something?" she asked. I felt my face with the tips of my finger. It was burning, red hot!
"I'm-I'm fine" I said put off by the heat of my face. She scoffed quietly then sat down next to me. I threw the wipe into the bin then sat still. She began coating my face lightly in foundation with a sponge.
Then she used a soft brush to cover my face with powder. "just don't tell anyone I did your make up, that's babies stuff" she spat. Then took out an eye liner.
"whoa, I'm not going anywhere!" I yelled as I dodged the pencil. She groaned "c'mon it'll look nice" she protested.
I sighed then let her coat me in all different kids of crap. She smiled at me after 10 minutes. "done" she said, putting the lipstick down.
"you haven't made me look like some slapper have you?" I asked. She shook her head "look for yourself" she replied, pointing towards a mirror.
I got up slowly then turned to face the mirror. I gasped at my reflection. My skin looked even, my eyes were bordered with a very dark black eye liner, I had a light blue eye shadow on and bright red lipstick.
I smiled "I look just like my mum" I mumbled to myself, pulling on a piece of hair that hung on my left cheek. "was she pretty?" Elektra asked. I turned around to face her.
"huh?" I replied, not knowing what she meant. "your mum, was she pretty?" she asked, standing up and putting away the rest of my make up.
I nodded "she was, she was beautiful, until drugs…well at least I imagine it was drugs" I said, trying to avoid her eyes.
She smiled at me sympathetically. "I'm gonna' go downstairs" I said, filling the silence. "Bye" she replied, getting out a magazine and sticking her headphones in.
I walked out, down the stairs for the second time today, into the living room. "wow, you look great!" tee said as she jumped up and started to run up to me. I laughed. "thanks" I replied, trying not to blush again.
Everyone began walking to up me and complimenting me. I replied with a few 'thank you's' here and there.
"not too bad" liam said with a sly wink as everyone walked off. I grinned and twirled on the spot. "it's too much I think" I replied, feeling dizzy from the twirl. He nodded a little. "you don't really need it" he said as he walked back to Frank.
I bit my lip secretly stopping myself from smiling anymore. stop it, calm down! I mentally snapped at myself. You know what happens when you start to trust guys!
I walked over to the sofa and sat down next to everyone. "next up on disney channel!" the TV yelled. I rolled my eyes. "seriously? Hannah Montana? Are you kidding me" Carmen began singing along.
"you get the best of both worlds!" she screamed, then stuck her tongue out at me. "what was that awful sound?" Tracy said, walking in the room.
I covered my mouth with my hand in order not to laugh. "I was singing!" I Carmen argued. "more like strangling a cat" I mumbled. She hit me lightly on the arm.
"ow!" I gasped in fake pain, I then 'fell' off the sofa then rolled around on the floor. "goodbye cruel world!" I yelled as I closed my eyes and faked my death. Carmen and tee were in fits of laughter. "wow Alex your really funny" tee said as she held her stomach in pain. I smiled proudly.
Okay maybe I'm getting in over my head, I'm enjoying being here way too much! I need to stay focused on what's important- charlotte!
