I yawn as I sit up in my bed still feeling butterfly's from Saturday night. Yesterday was basically a Netflix and chill day. Lucy tried to call me a few times. I didn't answer.
Putting my feet on the ground I decide to wear something nice. Maybe Eric will say something. Or will he not? Are we talking in school? Gah! I really don't know and I'm so confused.
I can still feel the tingles from all the kisses I received from my prince. He drove me home and somehow got me upstairs without letting my dad notice. And without waking me up.
I slide the hangers down in my closet flipping from outfit to outfit. My eyes pause for a moment on a black skater skirt. I choose this and a red crop top. It shows a little bit of stomach but not too much. Lucy would call me a tease.
Putting this on I strut over the the bathroom. I plug in the curling wand and brush my teeth while I wait for it to heat up.
Then I curl the ends of my hair perfectly. Pleased with my work, I take a picture and post it on Instagram. To finish off my look I add red lipstick and combat boots. The perfect I just found out my boyfriend was cheating on me and my best friend new about it look.
I grab my black purse and keys and head downstairs.
"Good morning sweetie. Why don't you look beautiful" my dad greets me
"Thanks dad" I smile and head over to the fridge and begin to gather the ingredients for a protein shake. But I stop. I have just enough time to stop at Starbucks on they way.
"Honey, don't you think that's a little too much skin showing?" My dad tries to say this lightly
That's alright. I think its cute that he cares.
"Oh no Daddy! Its just enough! Bye! Love you!" I peck his cheek not wanting to ruin my lipstick and rush out the door before he can say "I love you too"
I get in my car and start it. Then I drive off towards Starbucks. When I get there I am dissapointed to see how long the line is. Some guy tries to cut in front of my but I hit the gas and honk.
"Nice try asshole!" I scream out the window with a hint of road rage.
"Well someone really wants their Starbucks" I look up to see Eric walking towards his truck with two drinks in his hand.
"Oh um hey Eric." Oh god that was embarrassing.
His eyes light up with ammusement when he realizes how embaressed I am. "You might want to get out of this line. You have 5 minutes"
I look down at the clock on the dashboard and get so mad. I back up and drive away.
With the window down I can hear Eric's chuckling behind me.
**"Hey! Cinder! Wait up!" I turn around to see my prince charming running towards me
"Eric, make it quick please" he approaches me with his drink and stops dead in his tracks when he sees me.
"Dang. You clean up nice" this makes me so happy
I look down in an attempt to be modest. "No, not really"
"You look hot" he says this as a matter of factly
I just smile and change the subject "What do you want Eric?"
He puts one hand behind his back and the hand with drink in front of him and then he bows. He actually holds up the drink and bows.
"My lady"
I smile and take the iced refresher from his hand. "You didn't"
"Oh I believe I did" he kisses my hand and runs away
