《Good Looking》XXIX. I Love You
Advertisement
I'm just happy that I met you, that's all.
~ Aurelia's POV ~
Okay, today's the day for the carnival and I'm peeing my pants.
I'm not even a little nervous but a lot of nervous, I was still laying down in my bed, scrolling through my social medias because I wasn't even ready to get up and start my day.
The carnival starts at five and it was only 12:27 in the afternoon, but I didn't want to run late and then start screwing up the confession.
So I got up from bed, I walked out of my bedroom and walked to the bathroom to brush my teeth.
I did a skincare routine and dried up my face before walking out of the bathroom, I walked into my room and needed something to pass the time, so I began to make my bed and clean my room a bit.
After my room became a little more clean, I went to my closet and grabbed the outfit that I had planned out a week earlier, but I'm not about to put it on now.
I walked out of my room after putting my outfit flat out on my bed and placing my sneakers next to the outfit, I ran down the stairs so I could eat something.
I wanted to put something in my stomach before I went upstairs so I could take a shower and change into the cute outfit, for the next hour, you'll be witnessing me hyping myself up.
"Rei, you're a hot girl, doing hot things."
I hyped myself up as I grabbed a Mac n cheese box, I grabbed a pot and filled it half way with water and waited for it to boil.
"You're a goddess in human form."
At this point this sounded as if I was doing a ritual and was trying to resurrect something from the dead, but in reality, I was just trying to give myself confidence as the water began to boil.
When it finally did decide to boil, I opened the box and poured in the macaronis, then I had to wait for that to puff up so that I can drain the water and put in my cheese.
It felt like eternity before the macaroni puffed up, do you know how excited I got when it was time for me to pour in my cheese and put it in a bowl? Like I wanted to do backflips and cartwheels when I walked over to the stove and turned off the fire.
Pouring out the water and having the steam hit your face, well it feels like you're having your pores open for the first time and some way, somehow, you breathe better.
"Ronald Reagan is behind this, I know it! I'M ON TO YOU RONALD!"
I shouted at the ceiling, Venus walked downstairs and just stood at the steps, watching me lose my mind because my anxiety was going through the roof.

"Oh, uh hi."
I timidly greeted my younger sister who was staring at me like I've lost my mind, Venus waved awkwardly before running to the backyard and closing the door without saying or doing anything else.
With the shrug of my shoulders, I grabbed my bowl and walked to the table to eat my mac and cheese in peace.
When I finished eating my food, I placed the dish in the sink and began to do my dish before sprinting up the stairs and walking into my room to grab my underclothes and towel so I could take a nice shower.
Always smell good whenever you're about to go out, you don't necessarily have to take a shower to smell that good but just spray some perfume and deodorant.
I had settled my towel down and turned the shower on, I walked out of the bathroom and ran to my room to grab my phone, charger and speaker so I could jam out and relax my nerves.
Having a full on concert during your shower is the best thing you could ever have in your entire life, it's stress relieving and it gives you the chance to conjure up some comebacks to arguments that happened when you were still a fetus!
I swear I'll have the best comebacks and best fighting moves when I'm in the shower and then the situation that I'm so prepared for happens, and all of a sudden I'm like SpongeBob when he couldn't lift up a brick? Was it a brick? I have zero idea.
Anyways, the point is that I need to be like Robin Arellano but instead I was embracing my spirit animal, Finney Blake.
But enough of that, I started to wash my hair and scrub all the dandruff and dirtiness out of it so it doesn't smell musty when I put my outfit on.
I'm putting a lot of thought into this, aren't I?
It took me an hour to finish taking a shower and washing my hair, I had two towels, one for my hair and one for my body.
I wrapped the towel around my hair and then dried myself with my body before wrapping it around my body, I grabbed my speaker, phone and charger before walking out of the bathroom with steam following behind me.
My room was fresh and cold, it made me shiver but I liked it because it helped me dry up faster before putting on anything.
I put on my underclothes and then put my deodorant on, I put perfume on my bare body before putting it on my clothes.
Then I looked at the clock, it was only 2:56 in the afternoon so I know I still had enough time to get dressed and then walk to Angie's house so that we can all walk to the carnival together.
Brady and his friend group would meet us at the carnival which was good because it gave me enough time to practice the confession on the way there, thank the Lord.

Once I was fully dried, I grabbed my outfit and took a deep breath, praying and wishing that it looks good on me when I turn around and stare at my body in the full length mirror.
Aurelia's Outfit
The shoes that I chose were white doc martens, I decided to wait until I had all of my items on before walking to the full length mirror and checking myself out.
I laced my shoes up and walked to my vanity, I sat down and put on my rings, earrings, bracelets and necklaces before grabbing my makeup and doing a light look.
I removed my hair from the towel and brushed it out, I allowed my hair to air dry so that i can brush it out and style it.
When it did dry, I brushed it out and put on a headband before walking to my full length mirror and checking me out, I smiled as I felt comfortable with my body.
I felt pretty and I knew I looked good at that, I grabbed my phone and walked out of my room and run down the stairs, I left my house and began my walk to Angie's house.
"You look amazing, just take a deep breath. I promise that everything will be alright."
Angie comforted me as she gave me a side hug, I smiled at her and hugged her back before waiting for Marcy to come out of the bathroom so we could walk to the carnival with one another.
I was a little nervous about the confessing thing because I still didn't want to mess it up, but with all of my friends having my back, I know I'd be alright.
Marcy finally came out of the bathroom, I smiled at her and we walked out of the house together.
I was reciting the confession in my head the whole way to the carnival, but there's a chance that I'll end up freestyling the whole damn thing and stuttering.
"Well, there they are. Are you ready?"
Val asked me as she held my hand, I looked at her and nodded my head before we began to walk to the group of Brady's friends.
I greeted everyone and hugged Miguel tightly with a smile dancing on my lips, he looked at me and smiled back which sent butterflies to my stomach and crimson red blush to my cheeks.
While making eye contact with the person that I have feelings for, I didn't even noticed that everyone walked away silently.
"Do you, maybe wanna go play a game?"
Miguel asked me, I looked at him and nodded my head before grabbing his hand and walking to the ring toss.
I wanted to do it now, I needed to do it now.
"Miguel, we should talk, it's important."
My heart was thumping loudly, Miguel seemed like he's seen a ghost and you could tell that his heart was also racing now, that's how I knew that he knew that I knew about the text.
At this moment, my mind went blank and I didn't know what to say which was starting to send the plan straight down to hell, first class.
I've been a G, through up the L, sleep in the AM, uh-huh, O-R-O-U-S and I can put you in, first class.
Like that type of first class to hell.
"I saw the text, and I'm sorry for not even saying anything at that moment."
I began, Miguel looked around and he clenched his fist with his nails sticking into his palm, I looked at him and grabbed his hands.
"I didn't say anything because I was stunned that you felt the same way that I did, Miguel."
There it went, it's out in the open now and now I have to wait for him to respond back to me.
"Wait, what did you say?"
Miguel asked me, I looked at him and took a deep breath, getting ready to confess my feelings to him, once again.
"Miguel, I wanted to tell you face to face that I like you, a lot."
I confessed my feelings to the boy, Miguel looked at me once again and asked me to repeat myself, claiming that he was not able to hear me over the screams of people on rides.
"I have feelings for you Miguel, and it's been there for awhile, since I've met you actually."
I said louder, Miguel began to laugh and it was then that I realized that I just got played like a damn banjo.
"I know, I heard you the first time Rei."
Miguel mumbled to me as he pulled me in by my hands and kissed my cheek, I looked at him and smiled, I didn't even say anything but just admired him.
"What?"
He asked me as a laugh left his lips, we were now walking to the mirror maze because it's so fun watching people accidentally hit themselves with a mirror.
I'm just happy I met you, that's all.
I told my now boyfriend, Miguel smiled at me and kissed my forehead before walking into the mirror maze.
It's surreal on how I was able to pull a very good looking boy, but I did it.
I'm proud of myself as well, this is your sign to make the first move on your crush.
Getting rejected shouldn't be embarrassing, it just shows that you're one more person away from meeting your soulmate.
Good luck on meeting your good looking person, this was Aurelia Carmen Kingsley and this is the end of my love story.
