Almost You

The Date :)

Chapter 5

The Date :)

I smoothed out the front of my skirt, sighing at my reflection.

"Hey Liz?" I called from the bathroom, and I peered out the open door. Liz's head appeared in the doorway, a bunch of curlers in her hair and a green avocado face mask, she smiled her infamous wild smile.

"Yes hun?" Then she noticed my outfit. She looked me up and down, nodding at my outfit. Her smile got wider, she was starting to freak me out a bit.

"You are too cute!" She shrieked. No one could be loud like Liz.. I rolled my eyes at her, then rembered why I called her in here. I picked up a hair curler in one hand and a hair straightener in the other.

"Curled or straightened?" I hated how I sounded, like such a girly girl or what ever you would call those walking plastic barbie. I don't usaly put up such a fuss for a date, especial if it was Ryan. Ryan wasn't shallow, he was too sweet and he didn't care what I looked like.

"Curled," She answered immediatly. "But don't use that old dinosaur curler, it's older then my car, use this!" She jogged down the hall, her curlers bouncing madly on the top of her head. She came back, and shoved the curling thingy that looked more like a weapon then a hair tool, in my face.

"What is that thing?" I asked her, and plugged it into the wall. I turned back to her and she was looking at me like I just said that I was a man.

"It's a curling wand! USE IT!" She ordered. I obeyed, picking the thing up and holding it up to my head. Once I figured out how it worked, I started styling, sending beautiful curled waves framing my face. Nice.

''There we go, I can't belive that  you hardly do this stuff, like, you look really good, and maybe you're spending too much time with Adam, I mean, who dosen't  know how to use a curling wand! You've been living with me since the start of school!" I laughed at her exasperation, but turns out she was actualy serious.

The doorbell rang. I turned to exit the bathroom, but Liz grabbed my arm and attacked me with her mascarra.

"JUST A SECOND!" She screeched over her shoulder to Ryan.

Liz cacked on mascarra, and squeezed my cheeked together, forcing my lips to pout, and she creamed on lip gloss. She finally got up, but she beat me to the door.

"Why hello there Ryan-boo"  I heard her say to him. I smacked my forehead to my hand, she must be freaking him out with the whole avocado thing going on.

"Well, your girlfriend here has just been getting gloss-a-fied for your little date here." She started. "You know, it's cherry flavored, so that means lots of smoo-"

I elbowed her out of the way, cutting her off in mid sentence. A smile quickly replaced his shocked expression once he saw me. He looked quite handsome, his bright blond hair had been combed neatly, and her blue eyes sparkled when he saw me. He wore a button up blue shirt and dark jeans that fit him nicely. After I finished checking him out (not very subtley either) I met his eyes again.

I offered my hand to him and he took it, entertwining it with mine. For some reason I couldn't look away from his smiling eyes.

"Awwwwwwwwwww" The green faced moment ruiner cooed. I whirled my head around to give her a playful glare. Her mask was running all over the place from when she accidently fell on the floor when I elbowed her. I felt a light tug on my hand.

"Bye greenie!" I called over my shoulder as Ryan led me down to the lobby.

I spotted Ryans car and we hopped into it. He revved the engine when he turned to me, he raised an eyebrow.
