chapter 15:

The last place Peyton wanted to be was the mall. She’d never gone to the mall at home. She rarely had extra money from her job as a hostess at a nearby pub, since she had to make sure the bills were paid. Her mom valued drinking all night at a bar over paying for electricity, cell phone plans and internet. When Peyton did shop, she preferred finding original pieces at thrift stores. But Savannah had begged her to come shopping, and it was impossible to turn down Savannah when she asked for something—her huge blue eyes looked so upset if anyone said no to her. Peyton gave in to her little sister more than she cared to admit.

The plus about having a different style than her sisters was that they rarely tried to steal her clothes, so Savannah never yelled at Peyton the way she did Courtney when Courtney showed up wearing one of Savannah’s shirts she’d borrowed without permission. But Savannah did get into Peyton’s makeup a lot, so when they reached the Sephora in the Miracle Mile shops at the Planet Hollywood hotel, she hoped Savannah would get some of her own. She was sick of searching everywhere for her favorite lip gloss only to find that Savannah had taken it with her to school.

The products at Sephora were more expensive than those at the drugstore—palettes could cost anywhere from thirty to a hundred dollars—but Savannah bought enough makeup to last twenty years. The salespeople had the time of their lives helping her pick out what she wanted—brushes, eye shadow palettes, bronzer, foundation, powder, blush made from “Amazon clay,” eyeliner, mascara, an eyelash curler that resembled a medieval torture device, lip glosses and lip conditioner, which the sales lady promised would keep lips from chapping in the dryness of Las Vegas.

Savannah rushed to where Peyton was getting her makeup done, an eye shadow palette in her hand. “You should get this,” she said, shoving the palette in Peyton’s face. “It’s perfect for you.”

Peyton took the little black box from Savannah—it was by some brand called Too Faced and it said Smokey Eye on the front. The colors were mainly blacks and grays, which Peyton liked. She swiped her finger over the darkest color, and when she checked out the swatch, she was amazed by the jet-black pigmentation. It was way better than her current eye shadows, and she was almost out of her favorite color in her smokey eye palette anyway.

“You like it, I know you do,” Savannah said. “Want me to add it to our stash?”

Peyton had no idea how much it cost—probably too much for nine colors of eye shadow—but she did love it. It was best not to ask. Savannah was putting everything on her credit card, anyway, since Peyton had done what Adrian had said and tossed hers in the back of a drawer in her room. “Sure, go ahead,” she said. “And I think I’ll get that blush called ‘Orgasm,’ too.
