Friday had rolled around. Billie found herself looking at the clock, counting down the hours. Not that time seemed to be moving at all, much like watching a pot waiting for it to boil, the more you do, the longer it takes.
She had already started picking her clothing out, the choice having changed from one end of the closet to the other, and back through twice over before she settled on a red dress. Standing before the mirror in only her undergarments, she held the dress up against her figure, trying to decide. It might have been a little formal, perhaps a little too much for a Friday night, but... she felt good in it, and more than anything, Billie needed to feel good about herself.
Standing there, the way the light struck her hair, she felt it made her cheeks look to red, made her skin look more flushed than it really was. Decided that she didn't like blonde on herself after-all, she went a little darker, but not as dark as she had been.
Several more hours came and went, and still there were several to go before Ethan would take his shift at the bar. Everytime she thought about him, there came a chill down her spine that was followed with a warm flush. With a sigh she sat, falling to the bed with a bounce and laid on her stomach as she reached for the diary to commit herself on page.
I've not seen Ethan since last weekend and not really sure if seeing him at all would be a good thing or not. I can't explain it, I have tried to put some meaning to it, but there seems to be nothing that offers reason. I ever kissed someone only to find when I closed my eyes I was seeing his face. I don't know if it's those eyes, the blue with the lighter flecks, or something about the way he talks or stands, or how my skin tingled and and my heart jumped when he touched my shoulder. It just makes no sense at all. It's crazy I know, I'm pathetic.
Supposed to be working tonight at the theater for Karras. If I have to be there at the same time Ethan is at the bar, I quit. I can't really quit but I'd want to. Ethan, Ethan, Ethan. God what is wrong with me?
She closed the diary, tucking it under her pillow then rolled over to lay on the bed and dream about those blue eyes.
