Thank you for the review. Yes, it certain was a busy day, and the days to come will also be busy. Also, yearh Spinelli applying herself, mainly because she's older now, and while she doesn't have much of choice, it has a lot to do with how Ashley A is behaving. As for Ashley giving Spinelli directions about her future, is something I could look into. Now onto the chapter.

Chapter 7: hairstyling

Today had started out just like the previous two day. Spinelli was awoken by Ashley A, who informed her that they had quite the day ahead of them. Then Spinelli had a bath with the help of Joan, while Ashley A would pick out their outfits and get ready herself. She picked out a pair of jean shorts with a purple tank top with a pair of purple flats for herself, and a jean skirt and a yellow tank top with one yellow flat for Spinelli.

Spinelli then came back to the room and got dressed, and then came over to the makeup table, because she knew that Ashley A would just tell to do so anyway. Ashley A then started talking. "Okay Ashley S, we have quite the day ahead of us, I will teach you how to style your hair after we finished breakfast. Then it will be time for lunch, then after lunch we can, like, totally watch a movie, then it will be time for tea. After tea, I will continue to teach you table manners, and then it will be time for dinner. After dinner, we will watch one of my tv shows. Now I will just comb your hair today, and you can, like, try and put on makeup by yourself." Spinelli just did as told, even if she wasn't good at putting on makeup by herself, but Ashley A just fixed that problem and removed the makeup and told her that they would do it again the next day; thinking that if they did it every day, then she would eventually get good at it, and they did have all summer to practice, so there was no problem there.

Then they went down for breakfast, which of course was the same as the last two days. Though Ashley A did begin to talk. "You know Ashley S, you, like, did a good job yesterday, both at practicing makeup, and learning all kinds of manners."

"Really" Spinelli asked surprised.

"Of course, I wouldn't lie to you, but I, like, really think, that you, like, really did a good job here today at applying makeup"

"Oh, you really think so" Spinelli wasn't even sure on why she even bothered listening to Ashley A, though maybe it had something to do with the fact that the blonde was her only company this summer. She tried to shake of Ashley A's comments, though it was hard, when the two were spending all their days together for 6 solid weeks, if not the entire summer.

"Of course, I do, you just need to practice everyday and you'll be so good at it." Ashley A knew that she had to be careful around these subjects, but she could sense that she was making progress. After all, 3 months was a long time, especially if she was the only company the brunette had, and this time around, she had no one to bother her.

"Oh, okay."

They then went back upstairs after breakfast, where Ashley A would teach Spinelli one way, she could style her hair. Ashley A would at first show it by doing it on her hair, and then Spinelli could try on herself afterwards. Spinelli did as the blonde showed her, even if Spinelli herself wasn't as good as Ashley at it, but the blonde simply told her that they could do it again every day until she was good at it. They then moved onto applying makeup, this time; a party look, which also needed some work. Once they were done with that and there was still some time until lunch, Ashley had then decided that they should read fashion magazines to make the time go.

Of course, time went by slowly, which was how Spinelli felt. She felt time moved extremely slow, especially since they were doing something, she had no interests in, whatsoever. But eventually it was time for lunch, which they went down for.

Lunch was of course the same as yesterday, and Spinelli couldn't help but wonder if all days were going to be like this, with her learning makeup and hairstyling, and if the meals were the same every day. If all that was the case, then it would be a very long summer for her, an extremely boring summer.

Ashley A looked at the girl sitting opposite her and started talking. "Oh, you know Ashley S, all days won't be like this" she said almost as if she could read the brunette's mind, and Spinelli wondered how the blonde could simply read her mind.

Spinelli perked up. "Oh, it won't?" she asked the blonde.

"No, of course not, just until your leg is healed, but Saturday we will go to a fashion show, mommy got tickets for the three of us."

"Oh." Spinelli said, not sure on how she should feel; on one hand it would be nice to get out of the house for a change. But on the other hand, it had something to do with something she wasn't even remotely interested in.

"Isn't that, like, exciting?" Ashley A asked very excitedly. She figured that if the two of them got out of the house, then the brunette would feel a sense of gratitude towards her, and from there she could plan her next move.

"Yearh, excited" not Spinelli's idea of exciting, but she would have to take what she could get.

Soon enough lunch had ended, and that meant it was time for a movie, Ashley A decided it was time to watch a movie and so they walked in to watch a movie, which Ashley A had decided would include a teen boy. She was sure that if she searched long enough, then the two of them would find a common ground on at least something, and once they did, then she could plant small ideas into the brunette's head, albeit in a very subtle way. But she had a plan, now that they would watch one of her she would find a movie with a teen boy, a very cute one. There was no way Ashley S could resist a cute boy.

When they were watching the movie, Spinelli couldn't help but notice the boy. She actually found him to be cute. She didn't know what was going on with her, but she now thought that a boy was cute. She thought it was horrible that she now had girly thought about a boy, what was next, would she begin to get interested in clothes and makeup, or worse she might end up talking like an Ashley.

When the movie ended it was time for tea. When they were drinking tea, Ashley A decided to ask Spinelli. What she thought of the movie and more in particular, what she thought of the male lead.

That question actually made Spinelli blush, and even though she tried to hide it from Ashley A, the blonde saw it and smirked, looked like she had found a common ground with Spinelli and could work her way up from there, to the point where the brunette would join out of the free will. She then started talking. "You know Ashley S, I can, like, introduce you to many cute boys, once your leg is heeled of course."

"oh, no that's okay."

"don't be silly, it's, like, so not a problem. You know I only have your best interests at heart. Just think about it, being an Ashley would be so good for you, you would have boys at your feet. Cute boys indeed."

"Oh." Spinelli wasn't sure on how to respond to that.

When the tea time had ended. It became time for lessons in table manners, which was pretty much the same as yesterday, to which Spinelli wondered how much longer she would have to learn that. When that ended, it was time for dinner, due to Ashley A's parents being home from work.

Of course, during dinner, Ashley A's parents would ask what the two girls had been up to during the day, to which Ashley A responded that they had spend the day braiding hair, reading magazines, watching a movie and drinking tea.

Eventually dinner had ended as well, and the two girls were now going to watch some tv, another favorite tv show of Ashley A's, this one also involving a cute boy, which once again flustered Spinelli.

Soon enough the rest of the day passed, and it was time for bed, Spinelli fell asleep rather quickly, due to being tired from the long day. Ashley A went to bed feeling satisfied that she had found one weakness from the brunette and she could now use it to her advantage. She was now sure that by the end of summer; Spinelli would be an Ashley.
