Summer Nights

20: 'Box dye disasters...'

Autumn stares at me with a perplexed expression with plastic gloves over her hands, 'Wait, so you two are just having sex?'

I nod slowly, 'Yeah.'

'But you aren't getting into a relationship?'

'Exactly.'

She frowns slightly, 'Scar, I love you, but do you think that you will be able to do this without catching any feelings for him?'

I shrug, 'It's always worth a shot, plus he's extremely good in bed.'

'Just please keep your heart safe and if he's an ass let me know, so I can kick his ass. I'm near enough a professional boxer now.'

I laugh loudly, 'I wouldn't exactly call you professional.'

'You're lucky your pregnant otherwise, I would have to show you my amazing skills.'

I glance at her nervously as she sloppily applies the pink dye into her hands, 'A-Are you sure that you can do this?'

'I dye my hair all the time, plus weren't you the one who said you needed to save your money now, so you can't go to the salon.'

'I-I did say that.'

'Then relax, I've got this.'

My eyes brows raise slightly as she begins to massage it into my scalp, I wince as a burning sensation takes over my body. But I let her continue, I've never used box dye before so maybe my head just wasn't used to it.

'S-Scar?'

'Yeah?'

'I-I think you are having an allergic reaction.'

'W-What?'

'Yeah, it isn't looking very good. We need to wash this off, like now.'

I glance at her hurriedly before I shove my head in the shower, my scalp cools slightly under the cold water. I grab a towel before heading over to the mirror, there was patches of bright blonde and pastel pink darted all over my hair.

'W-What am I going to do?' 

Autie winces, 'M-Maybe we could buy you a really nice hat'

'I do suit hats, I suppose.'

'Maybe, we just need to find a way that we can get the dye out of your hair.'

I frown, 'So, I guess I have to kiss pink hair goodbye for now.'

She flashes me a warm smile, 'I still think you are very pretty as a blonde.'

I wrap my arms around her tightly, 'You're the best.'

She gently peels me away, 'You are also dripping wet.'

'Opps.'

'I'll google now, the best methods to get it out.'

I cross my legs, 'Did I tell you? Rocky wants us to pay for this blood test which can find out if they are any abnormal cells and potential disabilities for the baby. A-And it can also tell you the sex of the baby early.'

'That's exciting.'

'A-And I was kind of hoping you would throw a gender reveal party for us.'

Her eyes widen massively, 'Y-You want me to organise a party?'

'Please...'

'Fine but my kind of parties and your kind of parties are very different.'

'What do you mean?'
