I got home from school and put on my 1920’s costume for me I thought it was beautiful and I did some research in the dancing, makeup and hair department on the internet. I styled my hair in the curls but shortened my hair without cutting it. I also made smoky eye makeup on my eyes to make it bolder and a dark berry lipstick and made my skin look like a perfect complexion. I put the finishing touches on and the doorbell rang.
My mother went to the door and as I got downstairs to the door she asked me “Are you sure this young man isn’t your boyfriend because that would be vile if you have one” I answered with “No mum it’s just a fun movie night and we uh….um….need to watch this movie for history class about the 1920’s!”
“Ok darling enjoy yourself and study the movie hard.” She kissed my cheek and unlocked the door and went upstairs. I got my clutch and opened the door. Eli turned around and looked at me all surprised. Eli was wearing a handsome man’s suit in the 1920’s which was obviously black coloured. His first word to me was “Woah”. I smiled and blushed in reply.
He held out his hand and I grabbed it and we walked to his car. Eli said the car trip would take an hour to get there. We sat in the car and listened to music, I nearly fell asleep just sitting in the car. Eli nudged me and laughed and said “you’re falling asleep and we only just arrived”
“Sorry Eli the car trip was long” We got out and sat on top of the bonnet of the car and Eli put his arm around me and the movie started. We also noticed all the other people who dressed up some looked fantastic and some just looked like they dressed up with no care. In act 2 of the film there was a part with everyone dancing in the film. Eli hopped off the car and took my hand and pulled me off the car and started dancing with me. Soon I looked around and everyone was dancing. Eli and I started laughing and we were having the time of our lives.
During the last part of the movie we bought more food and drink that the event people supplied. We also both shared a few short kissed and more cuddles. After the movie ended Eli drove down to a nearby park and he took out a picnic basket from the boot of the car and we walked up a small hill in the park. Eli lay down the mat and took out small bites from the basket. We sat down and ate the food and the drink tasted fresh.
After our mini picnic we went back to the car to go home, but as we reached the car something looked wrong. Eli and I stood in shock someone had taken two tyres off Eli’s car and they somehow stole the spare tyre from underneath the car. Eli looked around the whole car as I stood and watched with my hand covering my mouth in shock.
He looked at me and said “We might have to catch a bus and walk home tonight while I in the morning get a mechanic to fix everything.” I stared back at him and then started to giggle a bit. Eli then smiled and laughed as well and grabbed my hands and we started walking to the nearest bus stop.
We sat underneath the bus stop shelter and I started to shiver a bit because the air was cold and it started to sprinkle raindrops a couple of minutes after. Eli took off his jacket and put it around my shoulders and he hugged me warm. The bus had come and Eli payed $4 dollars to get on. On the bus I took out my phone and with the camera I checked my makeup. Eli suddenly took the phone out of my hand and kissed me as the camera on the phone flashed. He then showed me the photo and we both smiled. I then sent the photo to Imogen and texted “Had a great first date with Eli, but the car tyres were stolenL.” As we got off around the corner from my house Eli walked me home. I checked the time and said “great timing I’ll be back before my curfew.” Eli kissed me goodbye and I kissed him back and he walked off down the street back to his house.
I opened the door and my mother said “welcome home darling, you came back in time before your curfew. You’re such a good girl, better than your drunken brother!” I looked to the lounge room and my dad was asleep on the sofa and my idiot brother was lying on the floor with his hair messed up and lipstick stains on his shirt.
I knelt down next to my brother and fixed up his messy hair and I put a pillow underneath his head so he doesn’t have a sore head in the morning… If he remembers anything. I went upstairs into my room and I dropped myself onto my bed and rubbed off my makeup and released my hair free and took off my ridiculously high heels.
Then I felt a buzz it was my phone and a text from Imogen. It said “Hi Becky I had an amazing night with another girl, we partied all night and drank like we have never seen liquid in our lives. I also found out she likes girls as well and so during the night we kissed. I’m so pumped to see her at school tomorrow! Good night Becky xoxo.” I lay on my bed in shock and then I smiled I felt happy she found love but I have suspicion that she has been tricked.
