Skye's POV-
"Where can I plug in my straightener?"
Anne said while entering the bedroom. She was still in her pajamas; sweat pants and a tank top. I had just taken a shower and I braided my hair so it could be wavy for tonight. We had planned the party the day before yesterday and yesterday we went to get the food and our dresses. I have snuck into and out of my house many times so it was easy. I snuck my favorite dress; It was a midnight black sweetheart dress which clung to my chest and waist. It flowed out into rufflles with lace that had a design of small flowers
We had moved things out of the way in the living room and moved our supplies into the bathroom in the bedroom upstairs so that none of the guests would steal our stuff..
It was almost 6 and the guests would arrive around 7. I was wearing my leggings and a hoodie as I went downstairs to help out with anything. The food and drinks were all layed out in the kitchen for anyone to get and Xavier was testing his sound equipment in the living room. I decided it was time to bug him for a little bit.
"Hey? Need any help?" I asked him.
"What would you know about setting up sound equipment?" He said looking at his computer screen and typing things down. I pushed him aside and started typing things down.
"What are you-" He started to say but I cut him off with putting my hand in front of his mouth to shut him up. I clicked enter and some of the party lights turned on.
"Beginners luck" He responded unimpressed. I rolled my eyes as he took his spot back on the computer. I looked at him as he continued typing away on his computer. I ended up checking him out and I couldn't stop. He was already dressed for the party, boys never seem to take long. He wore black fitted jeans with a gray long sleeve shirt and a black jacket with some black vans. He took his time with his appearance. His hair was messy but i liked it.
"You like what you see?" He said not looking away from the computer screen.
"I've seen better" I replied taking out my phone and scrolling through some notifications. I was lying though, I hadn't really seen anything better, but I couldn't let him know that.
"You look pretty cute yourself" He said. I couldn't help but look at him. He was leaning on the counter and looking right at me. My cheeks gave off a tint of pink and I cursed at myself mentally for that. I really wanted something to break the awkward situation. I didn't know what else to say.
"Is everything where it's suppose to be?" Anne yelled from the room upstairs, breaking the tension I was feeling.
"I'll go check." I yelled back. That was my cue to get out of there but I felt his smirk on his face nonetheless.
"Sodas in the fridge....food and snacks on the table...what time is it?" I said to myself in the kitchen as I checked everything. I took out my phone and saw it was 6:30.
"Time to get ready" I said feeling kind of rushed but I knew what I wanted to wear and how to do my make up. Quickly rushing up the stairs, avoiding any eye contact with Xavier, I went into the room and locked the door behind me. Brooke was fixing up a few curls by the mirror. Brooke wore a tight dress that went above the knee, showing off her figure Her make up was done natural with a bit of mascara and blush to show off some facial features. . Anne had finished straightening her hair and was applying her make up next to Brooke but not trying to take all the space. Anne was wearing a black skirt that was tight around the waist but as it goes down loosens up. It went just above the knee and she wore a white off-the-shoulder shirt.. Her make up was very mature but not overly done, she is the best at doing make-up than the rest of us, it was her thing.
