KISS Oneshots

#8 Ace Frehley x Reader

Tomorrow was my birthday but I wasn't excited or happy at all. A week ago my boyfriend Chad broke up with me in the worst kind of way. We were grocery shopping when we met Marcy, his affair for quite some time. Immedeatly he walked to her, kissing her deeply while I stood next to them. After a while I interrupted their make out session angrily and he just dumped me right on the spot.

He left me in the store and I needed to walk home in the pouring rain. Ever since then I shut myself in my house talking to nobody and crying my eyes out. I ignored all the missed calls from my best friend and didn't let her in when she stood in front of my house.

I was over being sad and now I was just angry, pacing up and down the house the whole day until I cried myself to sleep again in another wave of sadness and anger. On the morning of my birthday I didn't even want to get out of bed and so I just covered myself with the blanket again, burrying my face in the pillow.

Thats until I heard a noise downstairs, making me jump up. I listened intently and heared someone rummage through a cabinet or drawer downstairs. I grabbed my hairbrush, being the only hard object near me and made my way down quietly. On the stairs I could pinpoint the noise to the kitchen, creeping towards it.

I raised the hairbrush into the air as I rounded the corner, ready to strike. I groaned as I looked at my best friend Sara shrieking frightened, letting the hairbrush sink. "What are you doing here?", I asked annoyed, going to the coffeemaker. "Hey it's your birthday and I'm here to cheer you up! And I've got the perfect plan to do so!", she said cheerfully, making me sigh.

"Look, I'm happy you want to help and cheer me up, but there is nothing you can do to cheer me up ok?", I said, fixing myself a cup of coffee. "Oh no miss grumpy! You are going to shower, dress up nicely and have fun today! And most importantly you'll stop drinking cold coffee from days ago!", she said, grabbing my cup and pouring the contents into the sink.

"Hey! I was gonna drink that!", I complained and she shook her head. "No complaining! Now go up and take a shower, you look awful!", she said and I sighed. "Why are you bugging me like this?", I asked and she smiled. "Well, there will be some hot guys of a nice band coming here today and I want you to look good! Maybe one of them could take your mind off of Chad!", she said and I sighed.

"So thats your plan then.", I said and she smiled. "Alright, time to shower!", she said, pushing me out of the kitchen and up the stairs towards the bathroom. "And I want you to come out when you're finished and not earlier! ", she said, pushing me inside and closing the door. I sighed and complied to her wishes, stepping into the shower.

After I was finished, I sat in my room with a towel wrapped around me while Sara searched my closet for something to wear. After a while she found a dress she liked and held it out to me. "Put this on!", she said and I grabbed the dress, putting it on.

After she did my makeup and hair she was finally satisfied. "Thats it, you look fantastic! Now you only need to smile to be the most gorgeous girl those guys have ever seen!", she said but I didn't even flinch, sticking with my neutral expression. She groaned behind me, setting the make up bag down on the table in front of me. "Come on, Chad is an idiot for leaving you for that plastic doll! You are far more beautiful, smart, friendly and fun to be around! Now show me a smile!", she said and a little smile slipped onto my lips.

"Finally! Now lets decorate the backyard a little!", she said, taking my hand and pulled me with her to the backyard. We decorated until the late afternoon and she told me to wait upstairs until she would come and get me. I agreed, happy to have a little time to myself before all the guests arrived. Even when I tried not to think about Chad, I couldn't stop the thoughts from coming. Why did he dump me? Was I not good enough? And at the same time I felt the anger bubbling up in me again.
