Beautiful

Takes place after Light Source II


What's beauty?

I sure don't know, I try to not be beautiful, that's Madison's thing, not mine. I try to look awesome… awesome-ness, that's my thing. Beauty is not.

Well, I mean, I get that Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn were beautiful and that a girl on Prom night wants nothing more than to be called that by her date, but other than that I'm quite vague on the subject.

Can guys be beautiful? Or are they "handsome"? I've never understood society really. It's too strange for me, I chose to reject it when I can.

"I reject your reality and substitute my own." That's my favourite quote ever and it really fits.

But tonight, Chip is taking me to this fancy restaurant that he saved up for. He was going to wait until my birthday, but with all that's been happening in the past few days, he decided now was the time to surprise me.

Toby gave us the evening shift off after he found out we were the rangers, so Madison has been fussing over me, trying to do my hair, and getting me to wear this pink and black dress she bought on sale.

The dress is okay, a bit short and I detest all of the gunk she's using on my hair. It makes me look like a reject from Hairspray. At least when I use gunk it looks cool...

But if I understand this beauty thing, even a little… actually, no. If I understand Chip, even a little, he really won't care.

I'll look beautiful to him, no matter what.
