*Valerie's POV*

"Okay. Easy on the blush. I don't want to scare him away. Not that I could" I exclaimed.

Emma put on the last layer of blush on me and I'm pretty sure my cheeks look like a tomato right now.

"Please. My mom taught me how to apply blush before I could talk. Always use upward strokes"

"My mom was never really big on makeup tips. I never had a sister"

"Well, now you do. We're going to need all the family we can get. If we don't pull this off. My mother's not a barrel of laughs when she doesn't get her way. Just ask Snow White"

"Are you afraid of her?"

"Sometimes. Are you afraid of your mom?"

"I just really want her to be proud of me. She gets so angry with me when I disappoint her. And sh- yeah, she's my mom, so I know she loves me... In her own way" Emma started applying some lip gloss on me.

"Moving on. Come see"

"Are we done?"

"Yeah"

Emma guided me to the huge mirror and all my reaction was a 'wow'.

"Oh"

"I know"

"I look..."

"Say it"

"Not hideous"

"Not even close"

There was a knock on the door and Emma walked towards the door and opened it wide enough for me to see.

I quickly grabbed my purse and stood in front of Zach.

"For the first time, I understand the difference between pretty and beautiful" I smiled as he complimented me.

"I hope you like bikes" He passed me a purple helmet and we walked out the door.

This is going to be awkward.
