Heaven For The Weather [Mia]

[Fer Reyes]

As soon as the Brazilian laid eyes on Mia, he threw himself into her with arms wide open, almost throwing her into the ground but assuring she wouldn't fall with the help of the rather strong embrace he was giving her.


"OMB!" he exclaimed. "I have missed you so much! And OMB the weather, I have missed this cold weather so much," he let go of her and grabbed the beanie hat he was wearing strongly, pulling it down until it got stretched to the base of his neck. "I swear that fucking hot air just kills my hair, like, you don't want to see the nest of dead birds that is my hair right now, it should be just like illegal for someone with my beautiful and sensitive hair to ever be in that country."


Fer's face was tragic, as if he had been talking of a very serious and sad issue. Then again, the dry state in which his hair was was an issue with those characteristics for him. In the boy's rules of living, looking good was number one.


"So I need you to drop whatever you were doing right now because this is a fashion emergency and I need you to get your iron and dryer and moisturizers and softeners and everything out and make me look presentable before any of my enemies sees me in this deplorable, sad, sad state." Worried look still in his face, he frowned and placed his hand in his chest. "Like, would you imagine what would happen if people knew of my curly-latino-hair heritage?" He shook his head dramatically and his face filled with even more worry. "I can't even... let's just... gossips later, hair first."

One thing she had missed more than anything these past few months was her best friend, and right now her only best friend left. It was hard to see him leave, even if it was only a few months. It was selfish yes, she knew that, but she couldn’t help but feel like she was losing everyone close to her… So least to say she was very glad the boy was back and hugging her. Mia hugged the boy back, in a tight embrace.

Chuckling at the way Fer didn’t seem like he was going to take a breath. It was one thing she missed, having someone talk her ear off, and having someone to go to one she felt lonely. “I’m sure it’s not that bad! I’ve never seen you with curly hair, I’m sure you look just as good.” Though she had to admit hot air sucks for some people whose hair couldn’t handle the dryness or humidity of certain places. Like her hair frizzes up in places with high humidity, and hot air; which made her glad she was from a very cold part of Alaska.


“Oh.. You mean my eating away my sorrows of not having my best friend in the same state I am? Sure…” She smirked, she was only joking, but she had been very sad to not have Fer around so it was sort of true. “Well, let’s get you into the bathroom. I will try to help as best as I can.” Messing her with her own hair everyday has made her messing with someone else’s hair a breeze to do. She would admit that she was pretty good at fixing hair. “Gossip? Is there really anything to gossip about?” What a dumb question when talking to Fer… Mia lead the way into the bathroom, figuring that Fer would close the door behind him, she sat on the toilet, waiting for him to take his hat off so she could see the ‘damage’ done to it.

"Oh so you don't remember that incident at the pool!" He exclaimed. "Good!"

As Mia had apparently done, Fer had also blocked that particular memory. He knew better than getting his hair wet on the last days before his perm finishes wearing off, but peer pressure got the best of him. Fortunately, it seems that his grab of a swim cap was quick enough if not even Mia noticed anything out of the ordinary.

"Ugh, don't even remind me of eating now," he wrinkled his face, as if being remembered of something disgusting. "I put on so much weight these months. I really wanna lose three pounds. Or seven, or ten, I really need to know how many pounds are in a kilo, point is, I need to lose weight. I'm so totally googling us a diet later, don't worry."

He then followed Mia closely to the bathroom while preparing himself mentally to show his hair off. "Oh, who are you kidding, we all know Hammel is more dramatic than the whole night-roster of Univision... of the past ten years and combined. Something interesting must had happened in my absence," he said as he sat down in the floor in front of the girl, so she'd have a better view to work on him. "Ok just don't laugh off ok? I swear as soon as Monday comes I'll be the first at hair saloon when it opens," he said as he took his hat off. It looked terrible, and Fer was squiching his eyes waiting for Mia's reaction.

Mia jut blinked at him “er… No.” Granted she was probably reading somewhere in a corner, considering she didn’t swim. So there was no way she could have been able to pay attention to Fer’s hair.

Eating was kind of a lie… She hadn’t been eating as much as she probably should be to keep herself healthy. Besides being a vegan, she had also went on a diet, a really bad diet that she really didn’t want to talk about. Mia was glad that Fer probably wouldn’t notice she was skinnier. Which was a good thing, she guessed, she knew how Fer didn’t really pay attention to details. At least not those kinds of details; but she really didn’t want to talk about it either. She had been silent for a moment, trying to figure out the best way to tell Fer that she had already been on a ‘diet’ “You do realize me being vegan is my own kind of diet, right?” She laughed a little. “You look completely fine, by the way.”

“Eh.. True. I guess I just.. Haven’t really been social this past month or so.” It was kind of hard to have motivation with a broken leg. Not to mention the fact that she has been dealing with her own drama to really pay attention to other people’s drama. “ I promise! Okay. Just let’s get this over with.” Her eyebrows rose, and her head bobbed back in shock at how bad his hair actually looked. “You look like the gay guy in glee when he watched all the gel goop out of his hair in that own episode.” But like she promised she didn’t laugh. “Okay! Lets get started in saving your hair.” She got up and sat on the floor in front of her sink, digging through the cabinet, pulling out everything they needed.
