Driftwood Heart

Chapter 10

Her P.O.V

When I reach the house most people are resting up, getting ready for a hectic, full of partying and who knows what else. I rush up stairs, catching a glimpse of Matthew in tan shorts and a navy blue shirt with little palm tree prints on it, matched with a pair of navy blue vans with high rise Nike socks. I smile, handsome with a dash of cute. I run to my new room and slipped the dress out of it's box. The dress was beautiful, the cut was unique, the top half was off the shoulder and fitting around the chest, the sleeves coming just off the shoulder, the bottom was very flowy have two thigh high cuts and each side, the length went down all the way down to my ankles. I loved this dress, it was the dress I wore to my first social. The colour was a white beige with little red flowers on it. I hang it up while I put on some light makeup, first just some light BB Cream to protect and hide my breakout, the a little blush and bronzer, on my eyes I got a warm bronze and applied that on then in a little pot there was some golden eyes glitter, I applied it on very gently so it would only be shimmering, I also put some on my cheekbones to highlight. Some simple winged eyeliner and mascara, eyes done. I went deep into my makeup bag to find the right shade of lipstick, finally I found it. It was a little nude peach, with a matching lip pencil, I applied it on. While I was applying it on I had left my hair waver to warm up, when it reached temperature I quickly put parts of my hair in not forgetting to apply some argan oil first. Once it was all done I got some hair spray and sprayed it all over. I slip the dress over my head, surprisingly it still fit me, I take a small white belt that has tassels on the end a tie it around my waist, then I pick out a pair of white wedge sandals. Finally I go to my jewelry box and pick out a few rings and bracelets. I look at myself in the mirror, perfect. I take my phone and place it in the hem were when I was younger had sewn a small pocket. I look back at the box and see something shiny, I walk over and see a freshly made flower crown with a little tag on it-Your Fave Aunt. I smile and place it on the crown of my head, perfect.  I walk down the stairs where everyone was waiting and it suddenly goes quiet, "Well?" I ask, then they all cheer, I laugh. Making my way down I spot a face that looks totally awe struck, "Hey" I say, "H-hey" Matthew says,

"How do I look?"

"S-stunning"

"Thanks, you look so cute"

"Cute? I was going for more casual"

"Kidding, you would look good in anything" I say, carefully I place both my arms around his neck and cautiously lean in, my lips touch his and his breath hitches, but he returned the kiss, I can feel him smile through the kiss which makes me smile.

I pull away while still having our foreheads touching, we stay like that for a while. Then we start making our way down to the beach, all together everyone walks together in the sunset along the long stretch of sand. My hand brushed Matthews, he smiles at me and loops our hands together. This was perfect, walking on a beach, being with all my friends and being with boy that made me the happiest.

I'm thinking of deleting this book because I can't bear my self to write it anymore, so yea watch out for that-Helen😏
