I’d just arrived at Daisy’s house after picking my stuff up from home. I’d knocked a few times but no one answered so I just walked in.

“Daisy!” I called.

She had told me she might not have been home but her brother would be. I walked up the stairs and opened the door Daisy said was hers. I’d never been to Daisy’s house out of the whole year I’d known her because apparently her brother’s friends were always over.

“Fuck!” I heard making me jump.

I walked out of the room and heard it again, “hello,” I said opening a door. When I peered inside all I really saw was two shirtless guys sucking each other’s faces off, “sorry! I’m so sorry!” I said then shut the door and ran o=down the stairs.

When I got to the middle of the entryway I heard a door open. I turned back and looked up at the top of the stairs. I saw a guy with black hair standing there and a boy with red hair standing behind him.

“You’re Blake I’m guessing,” I spoke up.

“Yeah. Sorry you had to see that,” he said, rubbing the back of his neck.

“It’s ok. Just a little shocked is all,” I smiled.

“Peasants we have food,” I heard a voice I didn’t want to hear announce. “Oh no,” he said once I’d spun around.

“Ewe,” I said and furrowed my eyebrows. “What are you doing here?”

“I was here first bitch so back the fuck down,” he said then shoved past me and started up the stairs.

“Dick head,” I muttered. “Daisy!” I screamed once I’d seen her head poke through the door.

“Hey,” she laughed nervously.

“Don’t hey me. You tricked me”

“Tricked is such an ugly word. I’d prefer bended the truth just a tad”

“Just a tad? Oh fucking no bitch salad, this is a whole lot”

“What was I supposed to do? Ashton asked and I knew you’d say no”

“Damn straight I would have said no,” I said and grossed my arms over my chest. “As long as that fucker doesn’t breathe the same air as me I’ll do Ashton’s makeup,” I said then spun on the balls of my feet and started up the stairs.

“Ah it’s hideous! Oh wait it’s just you Ashlynn,” Luke said then burst into laughter.

I laughed half-heartedly along with him then spat in his face. He screeched and frantically wiped his face before shouting multipliable profanities at me. I rolled my eyes and walked into Daisy’s room again.

“Irwin! You’re up,” I shouted and he quickly walked in, in his sweater and jeans.

I sat him on the floor and pulled out my makeup bag, “that’s huge,” he told me.

“All special effects stuff,” I shrugged and opened it up. “And this isn’t even half of it”

“Shit!” he swore and I laughed.

I started by cleaning his face with a wipe then started applying the liquid latex. Ashton kept complaining about how it felt weird and he didn’t like it but I ignored him. I then used my arsenal of makeup to add the redness and both red and purple to make the scars. Once I was done I pat his shoulder.

“Now piss off,” I said then he got up and walked to Blake’s room.

“Awesome!” he cheered and I smiled.

I then sat in front of the mirror and started doing my face paint. Once the blue was dry I pinned my hair and curled the bits I needed to with a straightener. 

“Daisy I need you!” I shouted.

“What’s up bean pole?” she asked.

“Spray my hair,” I said handing her the blue can.

“A please would be nice”

“I don’t owe you shit after today,” I said and she shrugged before complying. “Thanks Daze,” I smiled then sat back down and started on the makeup.

I put my contacts in before starting on my arms, “don’t your arm hairs get in the way of that?” I heard Calum ask from the door.

“I shaved them,” I replied but never stopped painting my arms.

“That’s weird”

“I’m committed”

“I can see that,” he chuckled.

Once my arms were dry I shut and locked the door before slipping on my dress and shoes. I grabbed my Maggot toy from my bag and walked out with him on my hand.

“Wow,” Daisy, Ashton, Blake and Michael said.

“This is what lots of practise gets you,” I smiled proudly.

“I’m impressed,” Daisy told me.

“I need help,” Devil child’s voice called.

“With what?” Michael asked.

“The stupid make up,” he called back.

I smirked and made my way down to the bathroom. I laughed at the sight and Luke’s eyes slowly travelled to me.

“Holy shit!” he cursed.

“Need some help?” I asked cockily.

“Not from you,” he spat.

“Dude just grow a pair and admit you need my help,” I told him.

“Never,” he sneered and I shrugged and turned my back to him. “Wait! I need…your help,” he said and I saw him cringe from the corner of my eye.

“All you had to do was ask Hemmings,” I smirked and sat him on the toilet.

I sat on the bathtub with the face pain but watered it down so it wasn’t as white. I then blended it down his neck and had to pop open the first button of his shirt to get it to hide under the collar.

“If you wanted to take my clothes off you should have just asked,” he chuckled.

“Not the time Hemmings,” I told him then put the face paint and brush down. “I’m sorry,” he apologised quickly.

“Chill. I’m just getting the purple,” I laughed.

“Wow, she’s already done a better job than you,” Calum joked.

“Of fuck off,” Luke scoffed.

I did the thick purple rings around his eyes then started on the moss. I grabbed a random comb off the sink bench and teased Luke’s hair before putting some of the green in it.

“What the fuck?”

“Beetlejuice has moss in his hair. It’ll wash out so calm your tits”

“I don’t have tits,” he pouted.

“I beg to differ,” I laughed.

He rolled his eyes just as I closed the container, “you’re done,” I said then stood up and put the green paint on the bench.

“I have to give you props MacAulay, you did a good job,” he said then looked at me.

“Now you owe me for having to breathe the same air as you”

“Whatever,” he said then buttoned his shirt back up; slipped on his tie and coat. “Watching me are we?”

I scoffed, “you wish Hemmings”

“I know you want me Ashlynn”

“You’re right,” I said and he looked at me in shock. “I want you to stick your dick in a meat grinder,” I smiled sweetly then waltzed out.
