Crashing into Love

Chapter 9

I put down my phone, rather loudly. "WHY THE HELL DID YOU GUYS JUST DO THAT?!" I yell, exasperated. Forrest and Elena look at each other and shrug.

"Well, it is fun to mess with you." Forrest says, stifling a laugh.

"Forrest, you do know that I know where you keep your knives, right?" I say as I walk hastily towards his kitchen. Forrest stops me.

"Woah, woah, woah. Hold up." Forrest says, grabbing my hand and restraining me from walking away. "If you leave the knives alone, I will let you give me a blind makeover." Forrest says, sighing. I squeal and drag him over to his desk, that happens to be covered with makeup.

"That's a pretty good deal." I say. I look around his desk for the proper makeup. "You know, Forrest, sometimes I think you're a little too gay...." I say, smirking as I examine a bottle of foundation.

"In my defense, that not all mine. Some of it is Elena's. And yours." Forrest says.

"Key word being, some." Elena says, laughing.

"Is it really that gay if a boy has a lot of makeup?"

"It is if you have waterproof mascara." I say, holding it up. Elena and I burst out laughing.

"Hey! It brings out my eyes!" Forrest says, defensively, This only makes us laugh louder. Forrest begins to laugh with us. In a matter of seconds, we're all rolling on the ground, laughing so hard it hurts our stomachs.

"You may be gay, Forrest, but you're fabulous, and we love you." Elena says.

"Well, I mean, who doesn't?" Forrest says. Elena and I both punch him in the arm. "Okay, okay. Come here, you two." We all stand up and gather into a group hug.

"Okay. Time for blind makeovers." I say, pulling away and walking towards his desk. Forrest groans. "Come, come, sit, sit." Forrest practically drags himself over to the chair. Elena gets the blind fold and ties it around my head. I blindly reach out to grab a tube of chapstick.

"So, Hayden was the one you were talking to on the phone, right?" Elena asks, curiously.

"Yes, he was." I say as I cautiously open up the chapstick and feel around for Forrest's lips.

"Soooo, what are y'all doing tomorrowwww?" Elena says.

"I don't know." I respoond. "He says it's a surprise." I can feel a blush rising on my face. Good thing the blindfold is covering most of my face.

"Oh my gosh, that is so cute." Elena says.  I begin to search for the lipstick. I aim again for Forrest's lips.

"Um, Hunt, you're kind of missing my lips. That's my chin." Forrest says. I giggle and aim higher.

"I'm not very good at this." I admit.

"That's the whole point of a blind makeover! You're not supposed to actually make him look good!" Elena exclaims.

"That's not helping me, at the moment, Elena." Forrest says.

"Oh, you people are no fun." Elena teases.

"Elena-" Forrest begins, but I cut him off my drawing a dark red line of lipstck straight down his face.

"HUNTER! YOU MISSED!" Forrest yells.

"Yeah, I know." I say.

"I need to get some more friends." Forrest mumbles.

"Hey, don't say that to the person who's giving you a blind makeover." I tease. I take the lipstick and smear it all over my lips, and then I give Forrest a kiss on his cheek, leaving a big, red, kiss mark.

"Really, Hunter? Was that necessary?" Forrest says, laughing a little.

"Oh, come on. You know you love me." I say.

"Not as much as Hayden loves youuu." Forrest says, teasingly.

"Okay, now you've crossed the line." I say. I take the mascara and begin to leave marks all over his face. He tries to fight me off, but he ends up falling off the chair, dragging me down with me. We both sit on the floor, again, laughing hysterically.

"God, my friends are weird." Elena says as she picks up the eye shadow and begins to complete Forrest's makeover.
