Before the Factor

All this for lunch?

Lou has been working on my face for the last twenty minutes. Powder, lotions, face masks, anything that could possibly help my poor skin to look better.

We sit in the bedroom, in front of the large mirror so that I can see everything that goes on. Harry sits on the bed, laughing at the funny faces I make and reactions to the harsh lotions.

"Lou's very excited to be working on a girl." Harry's says to me when Lou runs to the bathroom to get a wet towel.

"Really?" I say

He laughs and nods,

"Yea. I guess it gets boring with boys."

After an hour, Lou finishes with my face and moves to my hair. She has me pull down my hair, and I see her bring her kit over.

I never knew what was inside if it, but I see that it's filled with scissors and brushes.

"Uh, a haircut?" I ask

"Hmm, yea. I think you need one." She says as she holds up my split ends.

I giggle and Harry laughs.

I look at his reflection in the mirror.

He lays on his stomach, head propped up on his hand. He sees me staring at him and smiles.

I stick my tongue out at him and he laughs. He scrunched his nose and I giggle.

His phone goes off and the smile fades from his face, he looks at me with serious eyes and leaves the room to take the call.

Lou brushes my hair and starts to cut it piece by piece. I close my eyes and Lou laughs.

"I haven't gotten a haircut in years." I tell her

"I can tell!" She laughs

She finishes with my hair and tells me to shower so she can get me clothes.

I take a quick shower, not wanting to waste Lous time, and run my hands through my hair.

I step out into the bedroom, in my towel since I don't have any clothes, and find Harry sitting on the bed on his phone.

I stop in my tracks, he looks up and his mouth falls open.

My face turns red and I think about him half naked just like I am.

He smirks and I nearly drop my towel, he sees my panic and blushes.

"Do you want me to leave?" He asks

"No! You have to help me dress her!" Lou says as she walks in with three duffle bags in her hands. She turns to me and smiles,

"Oh! Your hair looks great! Doesn't it, Harry?" She says

Harry looks down at his shoes and laughs. He looks back up at me with apologetic eyes,

"She looks beautiful." He says

I blush an even deeper shade. Lou doesn't understand that I am super uncomfortable, and half naked, in front of my new boyfriend.

"Lou," Harry says

"Maybe you should give her some clothes right now so she doesn't stand there, you know, naked?"

Lou looks at me then back at Harry,

"Oh yea! That's a great idea!" She gives me one of the duffle bags,

"That should be everything you need." She says

"Thanks," I squeak and basically run I to the bathroom.

In the safety of the bathroom, I take deep breaths and open the bag.
