Why Me?

Chapter 3

   Athena
       I swear if my mother or one of her minions stabs my head with one more bobby pin I will lose it. I have been sitting here for the past couple of hours getting my hair curled, straightened, and teased. And let me tell you, no one likes to be teased. Also don't even get me started on the makeup, mascara brushes should be called eye stabbers, and who thought that it was smart to stick delicate lashes  into a torture chamber also known as a lash curler?
     After what seemed like an eternity, my mother finally stepped back, looked at me and seemed satisfied. Lucy one of the bobby pin stabbers, turned my chair around so that I could finally see their efforts. I had to admit after looking myself over in the mirror that I looked hella hot! They had placed my hair into this intricate updo, that involved twists and braids yet still managed to look effortless. My makeup was a work of art I have to say. I have beautiful golds and bronzes around my eyes, and a simple pale nude lip.In all honesty they did it so perfect that it looked almost as though I wasn't even wearing makeup.
      Finally came the most important part, according to....well fashion guru people. Picking out the dress, shoes, and jewelry. I chose a navy blue lacy dress (Picture up top) it was long in the back and a little on the short side in the front. It was sophisticated but not stuffy, because I am 19 not some wanna be twenty something year old. Recently we had found some amazing navy pumps to complete the look. I was originally going to wear flats, but I am already short and let's face it, pumps make a girl's leg worth looking at. I decided not to wear anything on my neck, I hear men like collar bones...... and just wear some simple earrings. They were made of pure silver, like my mother says one must dress to impress. The bracelet I chose to go with the assemble was silver, with small opals, and diamonds imbedded into it.
         It only took 5 hours of being stabbed, teased, and playing angry birds, while others dolled me up before I was ready.

    In the ball room
     Athena

        As I descended the stairway I took in all the details and decorations that my mother had taken weeks to prepare.  My mother may be intense when it comes to social gatherings, and my father may be a tough and scary alpha, but all in all they are the best parents a girl could have. As I reach the bottom of the the stairs my father and mother are there to greet me. My mother has tears in her eyes as she stares at me and father while still looking stern, has pride in his eyes. For a few seconds time stands still and the grandness of the ball room fades away. Tonight is the night that I celebrate becoming an adult in the werewolf world. Let the festivities begin!
