"What the hell is on your face?" Josh exclaimed as he walked into his office after spending the last few hours in the sit room discussing options for their current troop deployment in Kazakhstan. He was tried and cranky, but coming back to see Donna waiting for him in his office made the stress dissipate a bit. Her hair was in a messy bun on the top of her head, her feet were out of her heels and resting on the table in front of the couch, head resting against the back, eyes closed.
She had decided to wait for him in his office and do work rather than go back to their shared apartment believing that she'd get more work done there, but when she found the peel off facemask Annabeth had given her earlier in the week she decided that was her new plan. Only, she didn't plan on falling asleep while waiting for the mask to dry. "Oh, hi." She slowly opened her eyes.
"Donna, your face," Josh asked again.
"It's a facemask." Like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
He said down next to her and stretched out. "Why?"
"Gets rid of blemishes and imperfections." She answered, waking up more.
Josh looked at his girlfriend intently, trying to figure out why on earth she would need to use something like that. Her skin always looked perfect and radiant. "But- why?" He turned to face her, maybe he was too exhausted to understand it.
"I just don't wake up with pretty skin- I have to work for it." She understood where his confusion was coming from. She had to admit her skin was generally pretty decent, but that didn't mean she could just stop using facial products.
"Let's go home, Donnatella." He put his hand over hers where it rested on the cushion between them.
"I just got to take this off."
"Wash it off?"
She laughed. "No." Donna grabbed the edge of the mask and started to peel it off while Josh watched on in horror.
"Donna!" He almost yelled, "What are you doing?"
"It's a peel-off mask." She said as she finished peeling it off- managing to get it off in a couple of pieces, then leaned over and threw it out. Josh sat with his mouth open in shock and disgust.
Donna stood up and grabbed her bag. "Ready to go?"
He looked up at her, "Uh, yeah."
Donna laughed while walking out of his office.
