Girl at the Station

A Time Change

E dragged Charlie down the halls to her dorm. "Are you sure about this?" He asked. E laughed.

  "Of course! It's Violet after all!" That didn't put a lot of peace to his mind. E unlocked the door and had Charlie go to the bathroom while she got Violet. E and Violet came in moments later. Violet had dark skin and short brown hair that was straightened today. She was a fashion guru and loved to sew and design.

  "Let me guess Charlie, it was Jim and Max?" She said, already knowing her answer. Charlie nodded his head. Violet got out her makeup bag and started applying concealers and blushes to even out his skin. Almost an hour later, Charlie looked like himself again.

  "Thank you, Violet! I owe you one!" He said happily.

  "Okay, so why did you needed it covered up. You've had so many bruises I've asked to cover them and you said no. So why wanting to cover them up all of a sudden?" she asked. Charlie sighed.

  "I'm having dinner with my parents tonight and I don't think they'll be very happy to see a big purple and blue eye on one of their beloved sons," he said. They all laughed. "Well I better get going. E I'll pick you up at eight." Then he disappeared into the hallway. E turned to see Violet smiling like an idiot. 

  "What?" E asked. She poked E's sides.

  "You like him!" She stated. E gave her a no-way-you're-crazy look. "Oh, don't give me that! Everyone can see it!" She practically yelled.

  "I don't like him. Besides, even if I did, Charlie likes Clairey, not me. The only reason I'm going to dinner is that Clairey is on holiday with her family," E stated. Violet mumbled something under her breath.

  "Fine, can I at least help you get ready?" She asked hopefully.

  "Oh, okay," E said. Before she could say anything else, Violet was tugging and pulling on her face and hair. Violet dressed E, did her makeup, and did her hair. She didn't even tell E what she was doing. After an hour she was done.

  "You ready to see?" Violet asked.

  "Gosh, yes," E said. Violet turned E to face the bathroom vanity. Standing in front of E was a girl with beautiful lovat eyes, natural and curled red hair, dark eye makeup, freckles splattered around her nose and spread to her cheeks. The girl had a white dress that had sleeves and went down to her knees. The girl in the mirror was E. E looked beautiful. She looked perfect. She looked stunning.

  "I look like another person," she said. Violet smiled.

  "You look gorgeous," Violet complemented. There was a knock at the door. "That's him!" Violet squealed. E stayed in the bathroom making sure everything was perfect. She heard Violet lead Charlie in. E took a deep breath and came into the room where Violet and Charlie were standing. Charlie's eyes got big and he didn't say a word.

  "What do you think?" E asked nervously. Charlie put his hands on her shoulders and spun her around. "What do I think?"... to be continued...
