Session with Dr. Petrova || Clara & Ana
Running the tube of lipstick over her already-pink lips once more, Clara Saltzman let out a long sigh. As she stared at her reflection in the mirror, she noticed that her lips were turned down in a frown and her blonde eyebrows were furrowed together. She was sitting in a comfortable chair in her assigned room for the pageant, and she had already finished her hair so she was now working on her makeup. But, for some reason, she couldn't focus. She had been staring straight ahead with the lipstick in her hand for nearly 10 minutes, her mind simply taking control as she sat there.Β
Clara had never been so confused in her life. She was in love with Derek, she knew that, and everything between them had been amazing. Up until that day last week when her old flame and best friend Clay Wilson had made his way back into town, showing up at Clara's door randomly. She had had a crush on the brunette ever since she was 14, and even after moving away to England, the two had kept in touch. And now that he was here, one of the first things that had happened was Clay admitted he was falling for her. She knew that there were some sort of unresolved feelings there for him, but now that she was with Derek, how was she supposed to chose between them?
Clara shook her head as a sigh escaped her lips and she set the lipstick down, noticing that her lips were already too pink. Just then a knock came at the door and she looked over her shoulder, her frown deepening. A part of her was hoping it wasn't one of the boys, because she truly wasn't ready to see them, and a part of her was hoping that maybe one of them would walk in, looking handsome and amazing and that would be her sign of who to chose. But instead as the door inched open and Clara pushed herself to stand, she noticed the person stepping inside was not only the same height as Clara herself, but that they were also of the female gender. "Ana!" Clara greeted, forcing her lips up into a smile as her friend closed the door behind her. "Hi."Β
