plot: awsten get's his hair dyed by OC during lockdown

quarantine, affection <3, PDA in front of a parent

"Thanks, have a nice day", Awsten said to the postman, as he shut the door to his apartment.

His girlfriend Eliza was sitting on the sofa in sweatpants and his t-shirt. He bowed his head down to capture her lips in a sweet kiss.

Earlier that week, Awsten had, out of boredom, spontaneously decided to order bleach and dye. He had gotten tired of his natural brown hair, much to the dismay of his mother. However, he couldn't help his impulses. He just neeeded a change after being trapped inside of his apartment for so long.

The bleaching had already been done days prior by none other than his girlfriend, who had been staying home with him. She had somewhat inspired his decision too, as she had made him color her hair red back in march.

"Are you ready to do my hair?", he asked and sat down next to her, placing the parcel on her lap.

"Oh my god! Is this the dye?", she wondered excitedly and tore the parcel open.

Inside laid three tubes of semi-permanent hair dye in the colors dark blue, red and yellow.
Eliza shot her blonde boyfriend an excited look, smiling from one ear to another.

He looked back at her adoringly, wondering how he happened to be so lucky to have her be this infatuated with him. He had noticed that since bleaching his hair, Eliza's hands found home in it more often. She either softly massaged his head while they were chilling out on the sofa, or she would pull on it a little harder than usual when he would have her between his sheets.

"You put a lot of trust in me to not mess up your hair, you know? You could always keep it like this. I like the blonde on you and maybe with a bit of blue toner we could get rid of the brassiness... Oh, and when your roots grow back, we could shave the sides and the back... That would look so cool.", she rambled, genuinely not wanting to be responsible for an accidental hair faux pas. Especially not on her boyfriend.

Awsten laughed heartily, "Don't worry, angel. It's gonna be fine... I trust you. You've done your sister's and your friends' before and no one's ever complained."

"Yes, but those weren't as elaborate as yours. They all wanted just one color and not a frickin' party on the top of their heads.", she explained, laughing nervously.

"Now come on, before you decide not to do it.", Awsten jumped up from the sofa and gathered the dyes.

He took Eliza's hand and swiftly moved to the kitchen. They picked up silver foil and gloves. Awsten snatched a chair from the small dining table as well.

Then, they moved to the bathroom. Awsten took a seat on the chair he had placed in front of the mirror. He started putting everything they needed onto the counter in front of him.

"Oh, could you please get me a t-shirt from the back of my closet? There's one that has stains on it already... it's on the very right hand-side, I believe.", he said and looked up to Eliza, who had been reading the instructions on the hair dye.

"Yes sure, I should probably get changed too."

She returned, now wearing a t-shirt that had bleach stains on it from cleaning and handed Awsten the t-shirt he requested.

When he changed shirts, Eliza took the opportunity to place a kiss on his shoulder blade and the side of his neck.
He turned his head towards her and pecked her cheek several times affectionately. She chuckled at his actions, and felt the anxiety slowly leave her body.
