Chapter 116 Five: Piccola

• "Thank you for this," I tell Lexi as she puts the finishing touches on my makeup. She got up early to help me, and I'm grateful she agreed.
• I normally don't wear anything but mascara and some lip gloss unless we're going out, but I needed this today. I slept like crap last night and tossed and turned until the sun came up. The dark circles under my eyes need to be hidden, and Lexi is the best.
• "No thanks needed. I love when you let me do your makeup." She gives me a reassuring smile. "Plus, you're worked up over nothing. Grab the box when you get there and be done with it."
