babysitter / cth au

Chapter 1

It's exactly one week since my mom caught me out at a party. It was my first party, so of course I was thinking, she'll never catch me! Boy, I was wrong. Who knew slamming the door drunkenly at 3 am returning from a party would wake her up? [a/n: that was a little sarcasm btw :)]

It was like those people who got pregnant when losing their virginity, but mine being a party; I guess I just wasn't meant to be a "bad girl".

BUT, an apology wasn't going to cut it. Now that I lost all my mom's trust to stay home alone for the next 3 months (even though I was almost 17,) she just HAD to get me a babysitter. If anybody at school found out, I'd be the laughing stock of the senior class.

My mom was a travelling nurse that would be taking a trip across the world to help with some organization I forgot the name of. I hated talking about her work while we were together since that's was the whole reason why we rarely spend more than a month together. That, of course, did not stop her from being a wonderful mom.

I think another reason why she wants me to have a babysitter is because of the weirdos in the neighborhood that have recently taken a particular interest on just our house. Then again, I really didn't want a creepy 70 y/o woman sleeping in our guest bedroom getting paid to watch me. But maybe she might do some damage with her cane or something.

"The babysitter will be here in an hour, Kirsten. Make yourself look presentable!"

I had just woken up, and now I had to get all dressed up, so I wasn't too happy. It was also because I had stayed up late watching videos on YouTube.

I decided not to shower since a quick shower will turn into an hour long deep thinking session, so I washed my face and brushed my teeth instead.

I absolutely loved makeup, but today was not the day to do a full face, so I just curled my lashes, filled in my brows, and concealed up those dark circles I had obtained from the night before. I didn't want to do my hair so I just brushed it. I threw on some jeans and a grey tank top before running downstairs to grab some breakfast. Hopefully this was "presentable" enough for my mom's liking.

I'll be updating tomorrow, or later I should say since it's 2 in the morning. I'm pretty tired so hopefully this wasn't too bad for now ;)
