Makeup - A SwaggerSouls Fic

6.

Sarah felt gross. She woke up sweating, the clothes from yesterday sticking to her body. Her hair was greasy and her contacts felt like they were glued to her eyes.

She got out of bed, feeling almost every bone in her back crack before grabbing some eye drops and putting them in her eyes. She wouldn't be able to even get her contacts out if she didn't do that before, and once they were wet enough, she took them out and put her glasses on. She got undressed, grabbing a fresh towel and going to start a shower. Letting it heat to the perfect temperature, she synced her phone to the speaker before hopping in, the voices of Drake and Khalid floating through her bathroom.

She stayed in there a while before getting out, letting herself enjoy the warmth. She wrapped a towel around her body and walked back to her room, grabbing a pair of leggings and an over sized hoodie. She dried off her body, then wrapped her hair in the towel before changing.

Sarah had a lot of filming and editing to do today, and she was thankful that today was the day that the boys record their podcast. That meant that they'd probably get together, eat some edibles, do the podcast, and then be too tired to do anything after. That meant she'd have today to catch up on work and binge her Netflix shows like the couch potato she is at heart.

She applied a generous amount of moisturizer to her face, the Australian heat already making her skin dry out more than normal. She began her makeup routine, going for an intricate smokey eye look. It was hard to do when she didn't have contacts in, but her eyes were still bothering her from sleeping in them and she wouldn't dare put them back in.

Once Sarah was finished, she slipped her glasses back on and combed out her hair, letting it air dry while she picked through a few more questions for her video. A few were from the boys, and she had taken a screenshot of the most appropriate ones. She didn't like swearing on her channel. Her audience was mostly younger, between 8 and 15, and she didn't want to give them a role model that cussed out others for fun. That didn't mean she didn't swear when she was featured in Misfits videos, raging at games and such. But her channel, her rules.

Sarah's hair was finally fully dry, and she went to her office to turn her camera on and begin filming.

"Hey guys!" She started her intro, waving to the camera, "This set up is quite different, and it might change throughout the next few videos. For those that don't know, I just moved to Melbourne, Australia! I have pre-filmed videos that will be going up sporadically the next few weeks while I get acclimated to living here. I did film a vlog the other day, so it should be going up soon after this. No promises though.

"Anyways, today we're doing a normal Q & A. No get ready with me, I figured it'd be too difficult this morning. I don't normally wear my glasses to film, but I fell asleep in my contacts and my eyes hurt so bad. You're going to have to deal with this for today, sorry!" She said, laughing. Sarah really did enjoy filming. It let her creative mind expand in ways she never thought she could do.

"So I'm just going to get right into the questions. First one, how did you come to know the Misfits boys? Just a warning, a lot of these are about the Misfits. If you don't know who they are, they're a group of gamers that are absolutely hilarious. They have a podcast too. I'll link it all in the description! But, I met the guys through Toby. I had been doing a Get Ready With Me stream a few years ago, and he popped in and started chatting. We then started DM'ing on Twitter, and have been besties ever since! He introduced me to the rest of the guys, but it all started with Toby!" She said, before continuing to the next one.

"'Do you actually live with them, or on your own?' Good question, I feel like a lot of people asked this one actually. If you haven't seen Toby's stream from a few nights ago, I do live alone. Both he and Swagger were helping me move into my new apartment. Cam lives a few doors down, and the rest of the boys live in their house together."
