Making the rounds

Bobbi led Jack around the dorms, introducing him to every girl there. Too many names to remember, Jack simply nodded and said hi. Two hours later, Jack’s feet were killing him. Walking in heels was still awkward. Finally, after Bobbi was finished, he found a place to sit

One girl, Lynn, in particular, took an immediate interest in Jack. She walked over to Jack as soon as he sat down.

“Hi, Jacki? I’m Lynn! I was wondering if you could help me out? Becca and I were arguing about some makeup, and I noticed you’re not wearing any at the moment. Would you mind if I used you to price my point to Becca? Pretty please?”

Not really wanting anything to do with makeup, or generally being where he was, he still didn’t want to draw attention to himself. “Sure, I guess.”

“Great!” Lynn said as she grabbed Jack’s hand and led him through the house, down to the basement where there was a salon setup.

She guided Jack to a chair and immediately started working on his face. Liquids, powders, sprays, and things he had no idea what they were, coated his face. Working on his eyes, she spent a great deal of time. He thought he hear Lynn mutter ‘12 millimeters isn’t big enough’ as she worked.

An hour later and Lynn was on her phone texting. Jack tried to turn around to look in the mirror as see what she had done, but Lynn stopped him. “Not until Becca gets here.”

A short while later, a girl walked into the room. Jack assumed it was Becca, and he was right. “So,” Lynn said to her, “what do you think?”

“Oh my god!” Becca said covering her mouth. “You were so right! That semi permanent makeup looks so natural! And those lash extensions are perfect! I’ll admit, I was wrong.”

“See, I told you that you had nothing to worry about!” Lynn spun Jack around in the chair so he was facing the mirror.

He couldn’t believe his eyes. What he saw was 2 girls standing behind a very pretty girl who was sitting down. Her makeup was flawless. Eyelashes that screamed, ‘look at me’.

As Jack raised his hand, the sitting girl raised hers. Realization slowly dawned on him the last it was HIS reflection. His hand continued to raise when Becca quickly grabbed it and said, “My god girl, look at the stated of your nails!”
