Make Me Perfect

Chapter 21 - All Thanks To A Makeover

"Wow."

I smirked at Nina's reaction to my house as I placed my bag on the table. "Come on," I told her, gesturing for her to follow me down to my room.

"Wow," she repeated, this time her green eyes widening to the size of dinner plates.

I laughed, "Are you ready to get started?"

Nina raised an eyebrow and glanced at the clock, which, stated that it was ten past four. "What time do you plan on going to the club?" she asked.

I shrugged, fixing my hair in my bathroom mirror, "Probably around eight?"

"We have like four hours," she said loudly, seeming to be confused on the subject.

I sighed, spinning on my heel to face her. I grabbed the end of her ponytail for the second time today and wrinkled my nose, "I plan on changing your look completely. That's going to take some time."

Nina let out a huff, sitting down on the stool in front of the bathroom mirror. She bit her lip, "Alright. Let's do it."

I smiled, for some reason very excited about this makeover. I glanced Nina over, walking around her and examining every inch of her small body. "Hmmm," I mumbled as I stepped towards her.

I pulled her glasses quickly off her face, then yanked the ponytail out of her hair. She yowled, scratching her head in pain. I ignored her and began putting a light coverup over her pale face. After I was done the makeup section, I advanced onto hair. Her hair was stunning, which made me angry at her for keeping it up all these years.

Two hours of doing makeup and hair later, we moved onto clothes. I rumaged through my wardrobe, determined to find the perfect outfit for it. I glanced at her skin tone and hair colour, deciding a medium shade would work perfectly. Another hour later of trying on every possible outfit, -which, believe me, was alot-, I stood behind Nina in front of my full length mirror. She glanced herself over, running her hands down her body.

"Is this really me?" she gasped.

I laughed, nodding as I looked her over as well. Her long brown hair was slightly curled, falling down to her mid back and shaping her face perfectly. Her makeup was a light brown, and her green eyes were outlined with black eyeliner and dark mascara. Her clothes, however, consisted of a blood red dress that cut in a v-neck with thin straps, exposing her back and her legs from the knees down.

Looking at this girl, I would've thought that she was gorgeous. Why would such a pretty girl hide her beauty behind baggy clothes and glasses? I hadn't the slightest clue. That didn't matter so much, anymore, however. I grinned, putting my hands out as if to present her, "Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you, the miraculous makeover of the stunning, the beautiful, the teacher's pet, Nina Changling!"

Nina laughed, clapping excitedly for a moment before wrapping her arms around me, "Thankyou, Peyton. Thankyou so much!"

I was caught off guard at her embrace, but I quickly shoved the shock away and hugged her back. Suddenly I felt a warm feeling in the pit of my stomach, and soon it spread to my heart. What was that? I had never felt that before...

Nina giggled, seeming to notice the confusion on my face. She ran a hand through her hair as she spoke, "That feeling is kindness." She turned to me, "You know, when you help someone out for selfless reasons?"

I swallowed, crossing my arms over my chest, "I know what kindess is."

Nina shrugged and turned back to the mirorr, "Maybe you should start proving that more often."

I frowned, about to protest when I realized she was right. I sighed and slung my arm around her shoulders, "Gorgeous," I repeated softly.

Nina smiled, and I helped her slip into a pair of my black stelatos. In about another half hour I was done up in a black strapless dress with my blonde hair straightened and bright red heels. Now I was ready to go to the club. I glanced at the clock, taking note that it was only quarter to eight.
