"I think you look beautiful" he whispered, getting flustered at what he said and looking down quickly apologising. Ally giggled, shaking her head and mumbling a small it's fine. she looked back up at Josh, a small blush apparent on both their faces as the movie played in the background. it was almost as if a pair of firm hands was pushing their heads towards each other. finally, when their faces were less than an inch apart, the house phone rang and they both jumped apart from each other mumbling a load of apologies, at which point the phone had stopped ringing.

after the awkwardness had died down, ally was comfortably laying on the couch, her head resting on Joshua's lap, and his fingers ran through her thin and weak hair.

"it's awful isn't it?" she spoke up after a while of silence. she noticed his confused expression and decided to carry on, "my hair. it's so thin and it's falling out... I just want to get rid of it..." she trailed of looking up at the ceiling waiting for the boy to answer.
"so you want to shave your hair?" he asked looking down at her and stroking the remaining, dying strands of hair on her head.
"would you be supportive of me if I did? and if so, would you be willing to help me out?" ally retorted, a small smirk playing on her face and a smile making its way on his, as he nodded quickly adding an "of course".

the duo were now standing in the bathroom, an electric razor in the girl hand. they were both staring in the mirror at the now hairless girl. "shit... shit, shit" she mumbled, her hands reaching up to her head, expecting hair but stroking thin air.
"fuck.." Josh breathed out looking at her, "you still manage to look stunning even without hair" he laughed and the the girl rolled her eyes. "what? can't I state a fact?" he laughed, stroking her spiky head and giggling at the feeling.

ally slapped his hand away, blankly staring at her reflection in the mirror, thanking every god, superhero and any other fictional character she could think of for having a nicely shaped head. "well I'll have to shower now.." she mumbled looking at Josh and he simply nodded, murmuring a 'I'll be heading to the hotel'. neither of them wanted to separate, but they had to.

they hugged at the doorstep for what seemed like forever, the now ginger haired boy managing to sneak a small kiss on the girls cheek before leaving.

"goodnight beautiful"

"goodnight Joshua."
