Waiting For Love

You Are Beautiful

I felt the sun's warm rays shining on my skin as if it was kissing me goodmorning, welcoming me to a new day. I stretched my tired legs under the bed sheets and let out a long, soft yawn. I pulled the sheets over my face in an attempt to cover my eyes from the seemingly blinding light. My attempts succeeded and I finally relaxed. Suddenly I felt the sheets being pulled off of me exposing my warm body, enveloping me in coldness.

"Natalie, you monster!" I laughed, pulling myself out of bed. I opened my eyes, quickly adjusting to the bright and blurry surroundings.

"It's almost 12:30!" Natalie tells me impatiently, still managing to keep her seemingly permanent smile. I froze, remembering Paul comes at 2:30. Suddenly, I ran to my closet shuffling through numerous pieces of clothing.

"Don't worry! I've already picked your outfit out for you. All you have to do is have a shower, do your hair and then do your makeup." Natalie says, grins widely. She points to the dress that she picked out, currently lying across the couch.

"Thanks, Nat!" I say while exchanging a quick hug with her.

I frantically ran to the shower, grabbing the dress on the way.

"Your breakfast will be finished when you come out!" Kyah yells from the kitchen.

I mentally praise her and stare at the beautiful purple dress. Natalie's style of clothes was sexy yet intriguing. It was very short but still appropriate for the date. I started the shower. I quickly removed my clothes and jumped into the shower. The water was freezing cold making me shiver but then quickly became warmer. I enjoyed the feeling of the warm running water sliding down my skin. I grasped the soap tightly, making sure it wouldn't slip out of my hands, and started washing myself.

Minutes past and I massaged the shampoo then conditioner into my hair before rinsing it out. I positioned myself so that my hair was under the soothing running water and began to rinse it out.

Once I was done I stepped out of the shower I grabbed the now soaking towel from the rack and wrapped it around my body. I then opened the cupboard and reached for the hair dryer. I plugged it into the wall and turned it on. I dried my hair and began to comb it. I removed the towel, placing it in the washing basket, and changed into the dress.

"Nat!" I shouted. I had to wait awhile before she came.

"What?" She asked from behind the door.

"You can come in." I laughed, opening the door. She stepped in, shielding her eyes.

"I'm not naked." I said. She unshielded her eyes and looked at me, laughing loudly.

"So what can I do for you?" Natalie asks, playing with my hair.

"Could you do my hair and makeup?" I answer, shyly.

"Haha, yeah sure." She replies. She gets to work straight away, spreading power foundation onto my face. She applies eyeshadow, eyeliner and then mascara. She added a touch of blush on my cheeks with a brush before covering my lips with red lipstick. She then took my hair and put it into a bun. She took a step back and smiled. I turned to look into the large mirror fixed onto the wall. I broadly smiled and turned to Natalie, giving her a big hug.

"Thanks, Natalie." I say happily.

"You look great," she smiled, "now go have breakfast, Paul will be here soon."

I ushered Natalie out of the bathroom and into the kitchen. I was greeted by a plate of food made by Kyah. I smiled at the inviting plate. It looked delicious. I stared at the egg, bacon and toast on my plate.

"Thank you, Kyah!" I said, digging into my breakfast.

"It's a busy day ahead for us! Big breakfast for big days, I guess." She smiles, digging into her breakfast as well. Natalie started eating well before we did and I giggled at her patience. When I finished, I placed the plate into the kitchen sink and strolled into my room. I picked up my iPhone lying on my bedside table. 1:57. I walked back into the bathroom and brushed my teeth.
