~Lauren's POV~
I woke up to the vibrating of my phone next to me. I rolled over and picked up my phone to see what it was.
@michaelclifford- nice to see you again LA!
I logged onto twitter right away and liked it as fast as I could, I just smiled at the thought of maybe getting noticed someday. Of course I had to reply!
lolo_goodvibes- Michael is so adorable! Can't wait for the concert in San Francisco! @michaelclifford
I always tweet the boys, mostly Michael, but once in I while I will tweet Ash, Cal, or even Luke. Once I hit tweet I jumped out of bed and headed towards the bathroom, not my own of course, what 16 year old would have their own bathroom? I quickly took a shower, got dressed, and brushed my hair before I went downstairs.
"What took you so long?" My mom asked as I entered the room.
"I just woke up a bit later today, no big deal." I spoke as I sat down on the couch. I was watching my favorite TV show, American Horror Story, when I felt my phone go off. It was my best friend texting.
Amanda😘- Heyyy
Me- Hey
Amanda😘- what's wrong babe?
Me- nothing, why would you think that?
Amanda😘- because you normally put more than one y in hey, or you would even put 'or is it hi?'
Me- I thought that it annoyed you?
Amanda😘- well it kinda does but I want my Lauren back.
Amanda😘- I gotta go but I love you and I'm here if you ever need to talk. Luv ya babe.💕
Amanda was never a fan of 5 seconds of summer, she thought they were to 'punk'. I mean don't get me wrong they are a pop punk kinda band but how can you not like them?
At this point I was done watching TV, the show was almost over and I didn't want to just watch bits and pieces. So I decided on going into the kitchen with my mom.
"Hey sweetie." She smiled at me.
"Hey mom." I paused, but with a smile. "I was wondering if I could maybe dye my hair?" I asked hopefully.
"I mean you probably can your old enough." She said kindly. Why was she being so nice? She is never nice, well to me anyway. Unless she had friends over.
"Ok thanks!" I said with a smile, I'm planning on going later today so I can color it before she changes her mind.
"Here why don't you go now? Here's the money to get it done." She smiled and shoved $150 in my hands.
"Mom it's only like $45-$50 to get my hair done."
"Well then get some piercings, I know you have wanted a lip ring and an eyebrow piercing for a while." She smiled at me, what had gotten into her?
"Oh ok." I smiled. I grabbed my bag threw a jacket and some headphones in it and headed out the door. As I was walking down the street to the piercing place, and I decided to tweet about it.
lolo_goodvibes- getting some piercings! A lip ring like @lukehemmings and an eyebrow piercing like @michaelclifford!
I hit the tweet button then stuffed my phone into my pocket. I continued walking until it started raining. When the rain started I just stopped at a nearby building and walked in, I decided to get an uber to the piercing place. Once the uber was on its way I just sat inside the building until it came.
......................................................................................
I hopped out of the uber and walked into the piercing place. I walked up to the counter and told them what I needed, I got weird looks from people nearby but I didn't care, my mom was letting me do what I have always wanted! Piercings and hair dye! This was sooo going to be worth it.
I ended up getting a black lip ring and a black ring kind of thing for my eyebrow, it looks exactly like Michaels. I smiled as I looked at the mirror.
"Like?" The guy asked me, I nodded my head still smiling. I handed him his $50 and walked out the door. The rain has laid off a bit so I'm just going to walk to the hair place, it's only a block or so and it's only sprinkling.
I walked into the hair salon and was greeted by quite a few nice ladies. They were all very bubbly and had amazing smiles. They also had pretty hair, which made me somewhat self conscious.
"How may I help you?" One of the bubbly ladies asked.
"I would like to dye my hair." I smiled at her.
"Wonderful," she did a little girly clap. "What color?"
"Do you have like a dark red?" I asked her.
"Yes we do." She smiled back.
"Ok, red then please." I kept smiling.
"Your whole head?" She asked.
"Yes please."
"Ok." She spoke with somewhat of disbelief in her voice.
....................................................................................
It took about 2 hours but it was totally worth it! It looked sick! (In a good way). I paid the lady and walked out the door of the salon. I was on my way home when I felt me phone ringing, I was getting a call. I looked down at it.
Mom calling...
I hit the accept button and held the phone to my ear.
"Where are you? You freak!" My mom screeched into the phone.
"I'm on my way home, I just finished getting my hair done." I said.
"Don't get attitude with me missy! You get your a** home right now!" Screeched again.
"Ok, I'm sorry mom." I said before she hung up. I started walking fast not wanting to get beat to badly tonight. She probably forgot about everything from earlier about the piercings, the hair coloring, which will only make my punishment worse.
As I approached the house the door swung open.
"It's about time!" My mom yelled at me.
"I'm sorry mom." I whispered.
"What the h*ll happened to your hair? And what are these rings on your face?" She asked irritated.
"Uh they- you said- this morning-"
"Just spit it out!" She yelled, making me flinch. "Someone a little cry baby?" I didn't say anything, I was to busy trying to keep the tears from spilling. "Answer me!" She yelled clenching her fists.
"N-no." I stuttered.
"Tell me what the h*ll you did to your face and hair, now!" She yelled again.
"Y-yo-u said t-th-is m-m-orning that I-i- could." I tried holding the tears back.
"I would never say such a thing. I mean why would I want my daughter to look like even more of a freak then she already did?" She questioned.
"Ok." Was all I could say.
"Go to your room! I will deal with you in the morning." she yelled pointing to the stairs. I just ran for the stairs and into my room. I plopped down on the bed and cried myself to sleep.
