It might be freezing outside,
But it's gonna be a warm December,
Makin' memories to last 'till next November.
"You look so beautiful." Violet tells me.
She's standing right by my side in front of the mirror. Brook let us use his room since, if you don't remember, the other night I was tripping on mushrooms and decided to break my mirror with a stiletto heel.
I obviously told everyone it was an accident...
"I look okay at best." I say honestly as I let my insecurities get the best of me while I stare at myself. Soon after my eyes move to the reflexion of the beautiful girl by my side. "But you... You look gorgeous!"
She does. The white dress she is wearing looks absolutely divine on her. Not to mention she is beautiful even wearing a trash bag.
She gives me a tiny smile followed by a short, pitiful, look right before being back to the smile, this time much bigger, accompanied by very optimistic eyes. "Well, I think you look delicious."
"Shut up!" I say with a laugh from her choice of words.
"I'm serious, Sky! You're gonna make me fall in love looking like this."
Oh God. Please-
"Wait, wait. Are we... about to kiss right now?"
Look at me making a joke. Go, Sky!
Violet lets out a big, genuine laugh making me smile immediately.
"No, now I'm serious. If you're down... I'm on my knees, dude." I keep the joke going.
"I mean-" Violet starts but is interrupted by a knock on the door.
Inconvenience master ...my brother...
"Can I come in now?" Brook asks, peeking on the door.
Wow, what? Talk about timing... Did he feel it in his bones that me and V were having a ~moment~? That there was a bit of fruity energy in the air?
By the way, if it isn't obvious, this is unfortunately a joke, okay? Relax.
Me and Violet share a knowing look, both giggling a little.
"We are kind of in the middle of something." I say, trying my best to keep a serious face.
"Middle of what?" Brook asks, entering the room anyways.
"Hm, I don't know... In the middle of me stealing your bitch!" I say with a purposefully aggressive tone. "Sorry. Sorry. Your girl. In the middle of me stealing your girl. Almost forgot I'm a feminist for a second there."
All three of us laugh this time. Brook looks extremely confused yet amused at the same time.
"What are you even saying?" He asks in the middle of laughter.
"I'm deeply ashamed to tell you this but... I was about to cheat on you, babe. It's true." V tells Brook. "I'm so sorry, I am disgusted by my own actions... please forgive me!"
She sounds like a Youtuber making an apology video.
Brook looks at me, pretending to be on the verge of tears and then back to V. "Cheat? With my sister? My own flesh and blood? This is low, Violet. Very low. I don't know what to tell you. We are... We are done!"
"No. Brook. Please. I didn't think it through. I'm sorry. Please. Just give me a chance. I can make it up to you. Please." Violet begs. As in the verb beg. Begging. Pegging.
