Bath bomb

00

Michael.

I look into the mirror as I put my hood up, covering my bright blonde hair as I zip up my jacket.

I observe as I look down at my black skinny jeans, knowing someone could easily mistaken me for a lady right?

A punk gothic girl with a fucking manly face.

Holy shit michael.

You can do this.

Just go in there and buy another bath bomb. For your skin. Yeah it's good for your skin right?

And if anyone asks: it's for my mom.

I take in a deep breath as I take the keys to my car and close the front door behind me.

I get into my car; a shitty Prius I might add-and yeah I get fucking shit for it at school but it's all I could afford.

I put on some music out of habit, slowly remembering the last time I was in here. I put on some Taylor Swift with Calum not too long ago.

I hum along to fifteen a song I remembered I sang for a girl to my homecoming dance. Smiling at the memory-she rejected me, but the other girls felt bad and one ended up asking me.

I found myself practically screaming the lyrics my head bobbing to the music

"CUZ WHEN YOUR" and I do a light air guitar thing as I keep my eyes on the road

"FIFTEEEN" I scream but suddenly stop as I realize I was at a busy intersection with the family im the car beside me looking at me with wide eyes.

I nervously tap my fingers on the wheel as I slowly roll my windows down.

-

I park not too far away from lush-but close enough to hot topic so I keep my cool.

I go into hot topic, pretending to be interested in buying something, slowly nodding at random items and suddenly leaving.

The mall was very busy at this time of year, it was summer where practically everyone in the whole world comes down to Florida to be tourists

I keep my head down not wanting to make any eye contact as I finally see the store

Lush

I take a deep breath before stepping in. I look around to finding many teenaged girls in such a small store. Most of them eyeing me-as I'm the only masculine thing here.

I put my hood up closer to my ears as I look around for an employee

"Um" I tap her on the shoulder "I'm looking for the pink bath bomb my mom got me fo- my mom bought. She wants-um. She would like another." i stammer as the she looks at me cautiously pointing toward the aise of baskets of bath bombs

"Thanks" I mumble as I walk pass the other girls

I look around finding a variety of other colours and flavours I've never even heard of and that's when I spot the pink ball of goodness.

One left.

Holy fuck.

I reach for it and as soon as I do another hand does as well.

"What are you doing?" The girl snaps at me and i immediately snap my head to the side looking at her with a "scoffed expression"

"Getting the last bath bomb, what are you doing?" I say with gritted teeth as she rolls her blue eyes sarcastically laughing, earning looks from other customers

"But you're a boy!" She almost shouts - now getting everyones staring

"A guy needs pampering too!" I yell the words slipping from my mouth too quickly. And I get everyones' attention as a large amount giggle

"I mean-it's for my sister!" I lie and she tries to pull the bath bomb toward her rolling her eyes-again

"Oh right, what's her name then?" And I turn my head looking at the closest name like fruit

"Luke-key?" It almost comes out as a question and I silently curse as Lukes face popped in my head at the wrong time

"Oh lukey huh?" She questions still trying to get the pink bath bomb from my hand "tell her I say hi and sorry for taking the last bath bomb" she smirks as she finally pulls away, running up to the counter-me chasing after her.

"I'd like to buy this please and thank you" the girl says quickly placing the bath bomb onto the the table, the cashier eyeing the both of us

"Um, babe? I don't like that one..maybe we'll just buy this instead" I say smirking as I grab the nearest item

"That's a sample for soap sir, those are free" the employee asks as the girl from earlier nudges my side.

"That would be $37.65 including tax" and before I know it she had swiped her card in and the last strawberry melon bath bomb was gone.
