Don't Let Me Drown

Sixteen

"The jet-lag is so real right now" I whispered to my camera. I rubbed my eyes a bit and yawned. "Good morning everyone it's seven thirty in the morning right now, hair and makeup is coming soon and breakfast has arrived. Today is more of a chill day, we are going to the Assegnato show, then a bit of downtime before Gucci, and Fausto Puglisi later on tonight. Over all of it, we're gonna have fun and eat as much food as we can"

"It's too early" Alysha whined and I laughed.

"Alysha is still tired, I am too we got in at one or two I think" I yawned before drinking some espresso. There was a knock on the door and I got up to open it.

"Sarah" I hugged her and my stylist. Ironically, the girl who has an celebrity styling company needs a stylist.

"I brought some items for you, pretty standard bold outfit but what's gonna make it pop is the metallic shoes and jacket" she said.

"I love it Roxy, I'll finally look taller" she laughed and I ate my food while my hair got done. My hair was loosely curled and I had a nude eyeshadow with perfect winged liner on. I had my contacts in and it took a while to adjust to them but I got used to them quickly.

"Alright, I'm in glam right now and Alysha is too" she smiled while Sarah did her makeup. "I get a quick break to eat the rest of my breakfast and now my dad is calling me. Hey dad, I'm vlogging"

"What's up vlog?" I chuckled and hung up.

"What's good dad?" I asked while I ate my food.

"Just wanted to check in on you, how's your jet-lag?" I groaned and yawned. "I see it's hitting you, I miss you bubz"

"I miss you too dad, I'll call you later?" He nodded. "I love you"

"I love you too Bubz, be safe" I nodded and hung up to chug my orange juice down. I shivered and stood up to put my clothes on. I slid my high waist red vertical stripe flared pants and white lace bralet. I slid my gold tunnels and diamond stud earrings. My phone buzzed and my heart broke when I saw that the Trump Administration decided to reverse the transgender bathroom protection. Nikita Dragun was one of my best friends, I know this affected her and so many others. It broke my heart.

"Bubz, what's wrong?" Alysha asked.

"Trump struck another low blow to the LGBTQ+ community" I whispered and lifted my head so my tears wouldn't fall. "I hate him"

"I'm sorry sweetie" Sarah said. Roxy gnawed on her bottom lip and went to her accessories suitcase.

"I was waiting for your anniversary to give you this" she handed me a box. I opened it and smiled. It was a belly button ring with a heart and a rainbow inside. I smiled and switched my silver belly ring to the on she gave me.

"Thanks Roxy" I hugged her and saw Nikita texted me.

Guess who's gonna have to use the men's bathroom again? ;-;- Nikita 🐉

I'm sorry hon, I'll be back soon so we can hug and chat. Love you baby ❤

"Alright, we should start heading out before traffic gets bad" I nodded and slipped my metallic rose gold stilettos. I draped my Saint Laurent rose gold satin bomber jacket over my shoulders and grabbed my bag and phone.

"We are about to head to the Assegnato show. Here's my vibe, shout out to Roxy for this cute belly ring. All the way from Europe, I'm sending my love to the LGBTQ+ community about what's happened with the Trump Administration and their decision. We stand together we resist together, I love you all" I blew a kiss to the camera. Once we got to the show, there were cameras flashing. I stepped out with Alysha and she held my hand. We walked through and I smiled when I saw Kendall.
