I made my way across the cold roof and back into the house. I quietly went back to my room and checked the time.
6:23am
I sigh and went to my box of clothes. I pulled out a pair of skinny high waisted black jeans, with a white t-shirt. I went into the bathroom and changed into my clothes. I stood in the mirror looking over my features. I stare at my hair a minute. My hair has been growing out for long than I can remember, it reaches to my butt. I fold the long silky brown locks in half to get a glimpse of what my short hair would look like.
I shrug and grab a pair of hair cutting scissors off of the counter. I wrap a towel around my shoulders and pull my hair to the front. I take a good chunk out.
"No going back now." I say quietly to myself. I continue to cut my hair above my chest. I look at myself in the mirror. I smile.
"Change is nice. Not quite done yet." I pull the hair into a ponytail at the bottom of my head. I grab a black dad hat and pull it on my head. I go out into the living room with my truck keys. I get into the drivers seat and put the key in the ignition, I take off to the drug store.
I make my way through the aisles, looking at everything.
"Aha." I stop in front of the hair dye. I run my finger along the boxes. I grab a black and a really dark blue, I make my way back to the front of the store and set the boxes on the counter. The cashier sent me a small smile before scanning the boxes. I start digging in my bag and grab my money. I hand her a 20 and tell her to keep the change.
I take the bag from her hands and make my back to the house. I enter the house and go to Franny's room.
"Fran! Can you do me a favor?" I yell entering her room. She sits up on her bed and looks over at me.
"Yeah, whats up?" She asks. I dump the bag onto her bed and pull my hair out of the small ponytail. He jaw drops open.
"Awe Tish! You look cute!" She plays with the ends of my hair. I laugh.
"Thank you! But can you dye my hair?" I point to the boxes.
"How do you want it done?" I pull up a picture and she nods.
-3 hours later-
Fran has a blindfold over my eyes while she blow dries my hair.

"Okay and look at it." I look into the mirror at my black and blue hair. I smile widely. I give Fran a hug and thank her before running back to my room. I grab a couple of boxes from the corner and set them out. I start folding my blankets and stuffing my pillows in them. I close the box up and tape it shut. I pile all of my boxes up and start cleaning up my room.
I make my way into the bathroom and start packing everything in there. I sweep and vacuum, wiping down everything. I start setting my stuff in the living room near the door and let Elton know that I'm ready to bring my stuff to his house.
