It was the morning of Afternoon Tea and man was I excited and nervous. Adrian had to do an elimination tomorrow and though I don't think I will be eliminated, there is always a chance, always. Most girls decided to take their breakfast in their rooms to have the whole morning and some of the afternoon to get ready. Only me, Nixie, and Lauren went down to breakfast and honestly we were fine with it. The royal family was supposed to have their breakfast in their rooms, though I'm pretty sure Gen and Adrian will likely break this rule and to no one's surprise they did. Me, Nixie, and Lauren were all eating our breakfast of waffles when Adrian and Gen arrived. Adrian still looking the same with his hair looking like he rolled out of bed, his cuffs messily rolled up, and a few buttons on his navy blue dress shirt open. Gen had on a short day dress with flats and her hair looking a little better than Adrian's but still messy. When Adrian and Gen had gone into the dining room, they were probably expecting it to be empty, but it wasn't.
"oh, you guys are actually here?!"
"yea, we don't need like, how much hours was it, like I think 5 or 6 hours, idk"
Adrian chuckled as he sat across from me and next to Gen. We started to have a conversation with me enjoying the waffles they were serving. Nixie and Lauren were mostly talking to Gen while I was mostly making fun of Adrian and him pouting like a five year old. Once breakfast was done, me, Nixie, and Lauren all went to the music room as we found Gabriele there playing the cello.
"hey Gabe"
"you play?"
"yea, why do all of you play?"
"Nixie sings, I play the piano, violin, and sing, and Lauren plays the clarinet and the sax"
"huh, wow that's one talented group"
"why thank you", we all did a deep bow and Gabe chuckled and we all took turns playing music and laughing about childhood memories when Nixie noticied the time
"hey Gabe when is the afternoon tea"
"at three why?"
"it's 2:17"
We all shared looks of shocked horror as we sprinted up to the grand staircase to our rooms. We were all out of breath when we came into my room as we had planned yesterday to get ready together.
"why are you guys late, oh we don't have time"
"ok, no time for shower, let's just get started to makeup and hair"
We were all sat into the chair as Sara brushed my hair and did a beautiful waterfall braid across my head leaving the rest of my curls to naturally fall. Penny put on some simple makeup, just some neutral eye look, with mascara, eyeliner, and added some lipgloss. I was given some nude kitten heels to finish it off.

Nixie and Lauren both looked beautiful. Nixie in a beautiful salmon pink dress with lace and Lauren in a dark grey purple that complements her hazel eyes.
