“i never realized how many shades of red lipstick there were until i opened my makeup drawer and i saw them all.” gracie laughed a little as she finished touching up her lipstick and looked over at them. “i sometimes wish i could pull off like the blues or purples but red’s already my signature color and i’m weird with change. maybe i’ll just keep doing what i’m doing. what do you think?”

gracie was exhausted. between working and keeping up with her social life, she needed some down time. she had orginally came over to spend time with anthony but she accidentally fell asleep on his bed instead while they watched a movie. her eyes fluttered open and her bright green eyes looked at him, giving him an embarrassed smile, “sorry.” she breathed out, sleepily. “i didn’t mean to fall asleep. how long was i out?” she asked.

“you remember that scene from princess diaries two where the girls mattress surf down that massive slide? i’m just trying to find a place where i could do something like that.” gracie paused as she fixed the bouquet she was working on, not looking up at the person who walked through the door. she figured they didn’t care to hear her ramble but she didn’t care. “i don’t know how happy the people in my apartment building would be if i tried it in the stairway.”

gracie had the biggest smile on her face as she plopped down across from her friend at the place she agreed to meet her for lunch, “i went on a date with my best friend. he did like me. i’ll have to tell you the whole story but first,” she paused, taking a sip of the water placed at the table. “tell me you’re still dating brandon because i haven’t heard anything. he just walks around like normal but without the annoying bragging part.”

gracie appreciated what her parents did for her but in all honesty, she just wanted to stay home and celebrate with her best friend - which, is what she was finally getting a chance to do. she swung the door open to her apartment, one her parents helped her pay for as long as she kept her grades up. “finally! i’m looking at all the snacks i bought and i was trying not to eat them all before you got here.” she joked, a smile placed on her lips.

“---oh my god, that was such a good movie.” she sniffled, wiping her cheeks as she looked over at her friend. “okay, please don’t judge me but movies are some of the only things that make me emotional and i honestly didn’t expect them to end up together but i was definitely rooting for them the whole time.”
