The Dancer
Flash of light
SCARLETT P O V
i grab some leopard print trackies and pull them on, I grab a grey T shirt out the wash basket and put it on. I find a pair of stray cashmere socks and put them on, it's instantly heaven for my frozen toes.
I go into the bathroom and splash some cold water on my face. My head is spinning.
I try do something relatively nice with my hair, but as usual it's impossible, it's all birds nesty knotted up. I just grab it all up on top of my head and tie it in a bun, out the way.
I wipe the remaining makeup from last night of my face.
I dont bother to reapply, I just dab concealer here and there for my spots and breakouts.
I open my cabinet and see a pack of paracetamol. I grab them and swallow quickly with tap water.
as I make my way downstairs I bump into Nic coming out her room, she's looking spotless. she makes leggings, a baggy tee and no make up look amazing.
No way could I pull that off. I probably look like a tramp.
"Sorry.." She say her eyes trained on the ground.
"Sorry I didn't catch that.." I smirk
"don't push me women.." She says smiling, lifting her eyes to meet mine.
I laugh and grab her hand yanking her downstairs.
We turn into the living room and see Harry drapped across our sofa watching tv.
"Make your self at home then." Nic says I smile.
He blushes lightly. "Well you..we're taking agggges!"
"Were girls!" She's exclaims loudly while walking off. I giggle and go sit by him.
"So when you going?" I ask
"probably should have gone ages ago..I know I have to..but it's horrible you know?"
"I completely understand...but you know he'd want you there."
"Yeah..." He stands up. "Your right.."
I walk over and take his jacket off the hook.
I pass it to him, "well I guess I'll see you soon?"
"Not to soon styles..whenever I bump into you guys, something bad always happens." I wink.
But as I wink, deep down I realise it's true and by the look in his eyes, he can see straight through my joke of it.
He opens the door and stands on the top step. i step forewards and hug him tightly. He kisses my cheek.
Thats when I see it..well It was hard to miss, the bright flash of light from the bush across the street. I'm temporarily blinded.
By the time I've made sense of the situation, the guys out the bush and runnin to a car.
It hits me like a ton of bricks, and in the flash of light my careers gone.
please keep going i really like this!
