The Distance Between Us [Completed]

Chapter 6

"Which dress should I wear?" Joelle asks me as she comes into my room, holding up 2 dresses. I take a good look at them to make sure I pick the best one.

"The right one," I eventually say.

"You sure?"

"Yes, 100%"

"Great, thanks!" Joelle tells me before leaving my room. I go back to applying my make-up, putting on a little more than usual. It is New Year's Eve after all. Joelle and I are going to a party together, which is something we do every year. It's always a lot of fun and I'm very excited about it.

"Tadaa!" Joelle says, showing off her dress as she walks into my room again.

"Looking good! How does my make-up look?" I ask Joelle, who takes a few steps closer to me to expect my make-up.

"It looks great, though I would put on some eyeliner."

"I always mess that up."

"I can do it for you?"

"That'd be great!" I say as I hand Joelle my eyeliner.

"If you do my hair," Joelle says, not taking the eyeliner from me just yet.

"I will," I promise her and she takes the eyeliner from me. I sit down close my eyes, letting Joelle do my eyeliner as I think about what I could do with her hair. I've always been good with hair and it's something I love doing, both for others and for myself.

"One side down, one to go," Joelle says as she moves to the other side of me.

"How do you feel about braids?" I ask, imaging a hairstyle for in my head.

"I like braids, as long as they don't make me look childish."

"Okay, then I have an idea for your hair."

"Great! And... done!" Joelle says and I open my eyes. I take a look in the mirror and see Joelle has done my eyeliner to perfection, almost.

"Thanks Jo, you're the best!"

"No problem girl, just help me with my hair!"

"Ready to party?" I ask Joelle as we inspect our outfits in the mirror.

"Very ready. Can we take a picture before we leave though? For Instagram"

"Sure!" I say and she takes out her phone. We pose in front of the mirror and she takes a picture of us.

"We need to hurry, the cab is already here!" Joelle points out as she peeks outside. We quickly make our way outside and walk to the cab we ordered.
