83 Denutante - Prepping (1/2)
Of course the people at their table knew about Olivia being pregnant but they still put on a show of excitement and happily asked who it was that was expecting.The women had a hunch the Avery had done this to keep the flies away from him.They figured after Agni being single was a much safer choice then to have someone psychopath come into their lives again especially now that a little one was on the way.
Autumn passed her phone to her mother and asked her to take lots of pictures of her and her friends.Each girl posed in various modeling stances and started laughing as they photo bombed each other.While Cheryl-Lynn took out her own phone and stepped away from the table to make a phone call.After they announced that the mother daughter breakfast was to commence the girls went back to their table.
As they were chatting and eating Cheryl-Lynn cleared her throat.Everyone became silent and looked in her direction waiting to hear what she had to say.”Since your 'kind' father has done a number to your hair I have booked you, well you fine ladies...” she said courtly before she winked to her daughter Blair ”A wash and style at Skylight Salon right after breakfast.”
The girls became overjoyed and started to squeal in delight as Avery gave Cheryl-Lynn a cold glare.”Really Cheryl-Lynn... I worked so hard to make their hair beautiful you know.” he said before he stabbed a cherry tomato on his plate and then popped into his mouth.Cheryl-Lynn matched his glare and let an evil smirk appear on her face before she sat back into her chair and crossed her legs and arms.
”If you don't like it I can always have them come to my house and look over some... cough... some pictures that Grace left in my care.She thought it best I kept these 'photos' as leverage for whenever you were having a stubborn streak.” she said coolly.
Olivia's curiosity was peaked and she looked at Cheryl-Lynn then her father.Cheryl-Lynn never let her evil smirk leave her face while her father started to sweat profusely.Avery sighed and dropped his head in shame, he then pulled out his wallet and passed Olivia his black card.”It's on me....” he said with a defeated voice.
Avery lifted his gaze to meet Cheryl-Lynn's.She raised her eyebrow and Avery sighed. ”Make sure you get everyone medi pedi too.” The girls started laughing at the situation in front of them while Cheryl-Lynn nodded her head in approval.
....
The girls felt rejuvenated as the walked out of the salon.Autumn went with a messy fishtail that swooped down around the side of her head and went into a ponytail of cascading curls.Blair, a simple bouffant updo highlighting the sexy aura she always carried.
Laila had decided to go with a dutch & fishtail braid side updo making her look more elegant while Loreley went with a double french braid and twisted chignon updo.Olivia decided to go with finger waved curls, with small braids that twisted into roses at the back of her head her head while soft curls framed her face.
The parents that came to pick up their girls were breathless and teary eyed.Cynthia wiped a tear before she cleared her throat.”My goodness you don't even have your dresses on yet and you all look so beautiful.”Autumn tried to hide her bashful face while the other looked pleased with themselves.
The girls hugged each other and said their goodbyes as they went back to their homes for lunch.The father-son luncheon was about to start at the Grand Glory hotel so they avoided the main street and took a longer way home.
After lunch the Steel girls ran into Loreley's room to get their makeup done.Loreley's room was still one of the most breath taking rooms in the whole house.They knew she was creative but this was amazing.The walls were painted a patchy light blue and aqua green color with streaks and blotches of pearl white making it seem that they had were looking upwards from under the surface of water.
She had white floating shelves that had pearl baskets hanging beneath it, that held various fabrics, pencils, thread and accessories.Her bed was round and white while her bed side tables where made of crystal tops and wooden bases.The bronze table lamps had jellyfish shades with chains of tiny glass beads hanging down, acting like its tentacles.
Once the jellyfish lamps around the room were turned on it made the illusion that they were under the sea.There were also various round bean bag chairs that appeared like coral reefs placed around her room, her closet was painted to look like a treasure chest and she had a flat screen 60 inch flat screen LED TV mounted on the wall.
Hanging across the ceiling was a fine net that homed many plush sea creatures, dolphins, killer whales, shrimp, crabs, one blue whale and one very happy purple octopus.She also hung her green fleece mermaid tail for whenever she was feeling too cold or just wanted to mermaid out.
