A New Hope

Chapter 7: Hair Dye

"Ok, Baylee, are you coming?" I asked a little impatiently.

"Yeah, jeez, just let me get my shoes on," she said, pulling on her black Converse.

"Well hurry up. I want teal hair!!" I whined.

We had just gotten done blow drying my hair after getting out of the pool, and I was waiting for Baylee to finish getting ready to go get my hair dyed. "Ok I'm do..." she said before I cut her off by grabbing her arm and dragging her out of my room and down the stairs.

"Brendon, we're ready!!" I yelled.

Brendon came downstairs, grabbing his phone and keys from the coffee table before stopping at the door. "Dallon, come on, Chloe's getting very impatient and I do NOT want to be the one to deal with the grumpy teenager!!" Brendon yelled.

"She can wait a minute while I get my shoes on!" Dallon yelled from Brendon's room.

I rolled my eyes and pulled my phone out of my pocket. When I unlocked it, I saw a text from Alex: How's the swimming going?

I giggled and typed my response: Gave up on swimming. Going to get my hair dyed.

In almost no time flat, he responded: Wow, that's so cool! What color?

Me: Teal. I've always loved the color.

Alex: Awesome. Can't wait to see it ;)

Me: Can't wait to show you! Well, I gotta go. Bye!!

Alex: Bye!! :3

"Ok, I'm here. We can go now," Dallon said as he came downstairs.

"Finally. I had a full text conversation while I was waiting," I said.

"Shut up, let's just go get this over with," Dallon said.

~Ten Minutes Later~

"Ok, we'll take Chloe Urie now," the lady at the front desk announced.

I walked up. "Hi, I'm Chloe Urie," I said.

"This way Miss Urie," the lady said with a smile.

Wow, I love that sound. Chloe Urie. "Ok Miss Urie, what would you like done to your hair today?" the hairstylist, her name tag read Gigi, asked me with a smile.

"I would like teal hair dye please," I said.

"Of course. How much of your hair?" Gigi asked.

I hadn't really thought of that. "However much you like," I said.

She nodded and smiled. "I have the perfect idea."

~Ten Minutes Later~

"What do you think?" Gigi asked me.

"I think... I love it! Thank you!" I screamed happily, jumping up and hugging her.

"I'm glad you like it," Gigi said.

"Thank you so much. Here you go," I said, handing her a ten dollar tip.

"Wow, this is the biggest tip I've ever gotten. Thank you," Gigi said, a surprised look prominent on her face.

"Of course," I said.

"Well, let's go get you paid," Gigi said, walking toward the counter.

"Let me go get my dad," I said.

"Brendon, time to pay," I said, walking out to the waiting area.

"Wow, I like the new color," Brendon said as he got up.
