dolling up

Candice made it down to the waiting car. She appologized to the driver and got in. As the car made it's way into morning traffic, Candice started to crave a piece of bubble gum.

The car was stuck in early morning traffic, and Candice spotted a **** store nearby. "Wait for me. I'll be right back!"

Before the driver could protest, Candice was out of the car. She ran to the **** store. Inside she noticed the cosmetics section. There was a mirror on the counter, and Candice patted her big, poofy hair then looked at her face. Her almost total lack of make up didn't go well with her hair. She quickly grabbed some fire engine red lipstick, blue-green eyeshadow, and pink blush. She then hurried to the register and grabbed a pack of strawberry flavored bubble gum. Candice paid for her items and ran outside.

The car had had to pull over and double park and people were honking. Candice jumped in the car.

"I'm like soos sorry, but I just had to have some gum," she told the driver. "Did I just say 'like sooo sorry'?" Candice thought to herself as she unwrapped a piece of gum.

On the way to the office, Candice applied the hot red lipstick, blue-green eye shadow and pink blush. She checked herself in her compact. "Isn't this a bit...you know...like slutty?" she thought before asking herself is she had really thought THAT?

Candice shrugged it off. She was a professional after all. She was a lean mean litigating machine, so what if she wanted to look sexy. After all she could use her sexiness to her advantage.

Candice arrived outside the office building where the law offices were. Smacking away on her gum, she headed towards the elevators.
