Everything was as I wanted it; happy family, great friends, love and kindness in my life...everything was perfect. Until it wasn't. That one fateful night that my dad blames himself for turned it all around in a snap, just like that. Then everything...
I flutter my eyes open and stare up at the ceiling as I sit up and look over to see Hayley knocked out. I smile as I shake my head and look out through my curtains and slipped out of bed quietly before looking outside at the bright, beautiful day.
"What's happening? And why do you have that smile on your face?" I look at Hayley as she gives me a sly smile as I roll my eyes.
"Do I have specific smiles or something?" I raise an eyebrow as she grins before nodding.
"Oh yeah. You grin when you're up to something and you have a smirk when you know something people don't. That smile you just had...you usually have that smile when you're thinking about something you like or love. Or ya know...when you see or think about Brayden." I feel heat crawl up my neck as I shake my head vigorously.
"That's absurd, come on I need to start getting ready and I need your help with make up and hair." I say as I grab undergarments before heading to the bathroom and taking a shower; shaving my legs and making sure I am refreshed before rinsing everything and turning the shower off and quickly drying before moisturizing and blow drying my hair. I wrap a silk robe around me and toe it before brushing my hair and spraying heat protectant before walking into my room and sitting in my chair as Hayley did my make up.
Hayley curled my hair before braiding a couple pieces and tying in a small ponytail and braiding those pieces together and stretching them out.

I smiled as I looked in the mirror to see my sparkly blush colored eyeshadow and my long dark eyelashes and my red tinted lip gloss.
"Oh my word! You're a miracle worker! Thank you!" I smile as I stand up and check my phone before smiling again and opening my door so I could grab something to eat, something small. I grab a fruit salad before eating it quickly and brushing my teeth, sadly taking the lip gloss off but I can just apply some more. I walked into my room and sigh as sit in my chair again so Hayley could paint my nails and toenails a shimmery cream pink color.
"You're going to look gorgeous! Brayden won't keep his eyes off of you tonight! It's going to be so cute! Remember to send me pictures and to tell me everything that happens tonight, don't leave out any details. Tell me everything and I mean everything." I smile as I nod.
"Of course." I smile as Hayley gives me my ring my mom gave me before I slipped it on before she holds up several necklaces.
"I'm guessing you want to wear the one Brayden gave you for your birthday?" Hayley smiles as she raises her eyebrows as I feel my cheeks burn.
"Umm yeah." I clear my throat as she smiles before unclasping it and walking behind me and clasping it around my throat. I smile as I see it fall down my robe, resting between my breasts before standing up to show Hayley my dress. I walk into my closet and drop my robe before slipping on the blush pink lace dress (see dress above) and walk out.
