“Can I do your make up?” Jemmy asked as she bounced up and down on the edge of the bed.
I smiled and shrugged. “Sure.”
I handed her my makeup case and sat on the bench at the end of the bed. She was still sulking because she couldn’t go with us.
“Do you need some liquid courage?” Dawn wagged her eyebrows at me.
I refrained from shaking my head. I didn’t want to ruin Jemmy’s ministrations. “No thanks.”
“You look really good, I wouldn’t be surprised if all the guys would want to go with you,” Sierra smiled as she picked up my hair straightener and ran it over a few pieces I must have missed.
“Thanks,” I smiled. “I’m sure that was Noah’s intentions, knowing him.”
A knock sounded on my door. “Are you ready yet?” Jaxson called through my door.
“Almost,” Jemmy yelled back. “Close your eyes,” she instructed me.
I closed my eyes and tried to remain still as she brushed eyeshadow on my eyelids. I heard her rustling in my makeup bag before I felt her applying something else on my eyelids.
“Okay open and look up,” she commanded.
I did as she told me. I saw the mascara wand come dangerously close to my eyes as she applied several coats on my thick eyelashes.
“Now just your lipstick,” she rifled through my bag frowning. “You don’t have any bold colors,” she frowned.
“Here!” Dawn rifled through her purse and handed her a tube of lipstick.
I raised my brow curious about the color.
“Okay you can look now,” Jemmy said excitedly.
I got up and had to admire the dramatic bold make up choices she chose for me. It wasn’t gaudy by any means, but it was heavier than I would ever choose. I didn’t think I would have
liked the bold red lipstick any other time, but it seemed to be the perfect choice for the outfit I had on.
“Here,” Sierra handed me the beautiful star pendant necklace she always wore.
“I can’t. I thought your Abuela gave it to you,” I protested.
“Then take good care of it and give it back to me in the morning,” Sierra smiled as she slipped the necklace on my neck. It nestled perfectly between the top of my cleavage.
“Thanks,” I hugged her touched by her trust and thoughtfulness.
“Do you have you Alex and Ani bracelets that Jaxson got you?” Jemmy asked hopefully.
“Actually,” I snapped my finger. “I think I have it in my guitar case,” I stated as I ran to my closet. I got out my guitar case and pulled out the little pouch. I slipped the bracelets on my wrist. “Am I done?” I asked.
“You look hot, mama,” Dawn smiled. “We need to plan an outing for all of us. I need a reason to dress up!”
“Sounds good to me!” Rachel exclaimed.
“Blake!” Jaxson wailed plaintively.
“Why are you trying to rush her?” Jemmy demanded as she yanked open the door. “She’s going on a date with Noah. Not you!”
“I know,” Jaxson explained as he tried to crane his neck around her. “But I wanted the satisfaction of seeing her first.” Jaxson said mischievously.
Jemmy laughed. Leave it to her to want to get involved in mischief if she wasn’t at the butt end of it. She flung the door wide open. “Ta da!” she proudly proclaimed.
