Kissed by a Bullet

Chapter 32 ~ Do you have a heart that is green? Or are you just the grinch?

Song of Chapter: I want a hippopotamus for Christmas by Gayla Peevey

(THIS SONG IS MY JAM.)

"There I'm done." Carly says as she finishes my lipstick. "Your hair has gotten so much longer since the last time you had it down." Carly says quietly. I smile at her, a bright one.

"It's a stepping stone, I like the half up and half down you did with messy bun on the crown of my head. It doesn't make me uncomfortable wearing my hair down." I tell her and she smiles at me.

"I love seeing your hair down even if it's half up and half down. I think Jace has something to do with this and I like it." Carly says with a clap of her hands.

I smile back at her. "Well it's either this or have him break another if my damn ponytails." I say and I turn towards the mirror and do a double take.

"Wow I look..." Carly cuts me off.

"You look fergielouis, so delicious making Jace drop to his knees begging for more. I swear if you come home before ten, I'm going to assume that Jace is now swinging for the other direction." I started laughing at her and she laughs at well.

"Well I can assure you that he is not gay but, we really need to find one of those. Because honestly taking them to mall would be so fun!" I exclaim and Carly claps her hands and squeals.

"Yes! But seriously Mel you look so damn good I would even do you." Carly says putting a hand on her hip and checking me out. While I sit crossed legged on my desk chair.

I busted out laughing. "Carly your too much sometimes I swear." Carly starts laughing too.

It was moments like this, I treasure the most times with Carly that always puts a smile on my face no matter what mood I'm in.

"Melanie, Jace is here!" Carly looked at me wide eye. "That asshole came earlier, okay I'm going downstairs and you come down in about ten minutes okay?" I simple nod as she retreats from my room to the downstairs kitchen.

I look once again in the mirror, my blue eyes were brought more to life with smokey eye look, courteous of Carly. My make-up was spot on and I know I couldn't have done it without Carly.

I would have looked like a clown if I attempted.

I stand up and look at my over all appearances, in the mirror in the corner of my room is full length mirror.

I stand in front of it and my jaw dropped. Damn, if Jace doesn't say how good I look, I will have Carly hit the shit out of him with the broom again.

I decide to leave my room when I finally figured it's been ten minutes.

I slowly creep out of my room and to the stair case. Listening to if they are in the kitchen or the living room. But I didn't hear anything so creeped down the stairs and started hearing voices coming out of the living room.

"I swear to god Jace if you don't say her burgundy lips stick doesn't go with her burgundy jacket, I will burn you." Carly threatens and I try not to laugh.

"No, funny business with my little sister you understand or I will kick your ass to Africa and let the hippos eat you." Luke threatens as I make it all the way down the staircase.

"Why did every single statement you guys have said to ended in, I cut you nuts off, I will give you titty twister, I will burn you, and my personal favorite, not every date ends with X therefore I will cut you nuts off if she not home by eleven?" He asks them and I creep to behind the wall to watch them. Carly and Luke are standing with there arms crossed glaring at Jace. Jace is sitting on the couch back facing me so, I couldn't see his face. But with his statement I'm going to go with he is smirking.
