The moon rises from her hiding spot. Her light brings the remaining pieces together from when it started. All the memories, all the problems, all the struggles. That day. The day when each of us were born. Nobody thought it would come down to this...

Victoria POV:
"I will seriously kill her if she doesn't respond-" "Hi! Odette here! I'm most probably fucking your girlfriend if I don't respond! So please leave a message-" "Oh what a beautiful voice mail" I said in a sarcastic tone.
I sighed and laid in my bed. "I am this close to put my coat on and drive to your house right now Miss Odette". After some minutes pass I heard the phone ring. I answerd the phone immediately just to be greated by a familiar voice. "This isn't Odette" I said out loud without any remorse and almost closed the call. "Wait a second, I'll go get her" I stayed silent waiting for her, not caring about the masculine voice I just heard. "Oh hey Victoria, sorry I didn't respond to your calls, I was busy" she said in a raspy voice "So sleeping means that you're busy?" I said in a monotone voice "Yeah i was sleeping and you probably wanna kill me cuz you seem worried, but I'm completely safe and sound" she said in, what seemed like a genuine tone. "Guess I'll let it slide this time, but please be more careful next time" I said in a more concerned tone. "Yeah, I will, don't worry".
I suddenly remembered the masculine voice I heard on the phone completely forgetting about it "Odette, is anyone with you right now?" I said in a childish confused tone. "Oh yeah, forget to tell you that Theodore is here with me, sorry" she said immediately. "Yeah no problem. But why is he with you?" "Well we decided that he should stay here till the rain stops" "So basically till tomorrow?" I didn't hear a sound for a good minute, that was until I heard someone bursting into laughter.
"Theodore Howard, if you don't shut up I will kill you without any hesitation" I heard Odette screaming "Guess I was right" I heard a sigh "Yeah yeah, you are right" Odette said in a disappointed tone" "Well then, I'll talk to you later. You guys have fun" "Yeah thanks, but he's not fun" she said in a bored tone. "Sure sure, I have to go now, talk to you later" "Of course, bye Vic" and with that our call ended.
"At least she wasn't killed" I said with a sigh escaping my mouth. I started getting ready for a shower while some thoughts were running carelessly through my mind.
Are the invitations really true or are they some kind of stupid prank? I really don't trust any of these. Maybe we should not go to this "ball"? I mean is the royal family after all. Why would they want us to join this "splendid" and "prestigious" event? Something doesn't add up. If I think about this more, ALL OF THIS doesn't make any sense. Aria seems to trust Theo, Aaron seems to trust Aria, Odette wants to actually have fun and attend the ball, too risky for my taste, Theo had made some researches on this letter, Peter doesn't give a single living fuck about all of this and I don't trust any of this bullshit. Never did, never will. Maybe that is gonna change over time, but for now I'm fine with how I see this whole situation. Guess I will have to wait and see how things develop. "I don't have the energy to think about this anymore" I said to myself quietly while I let the hot water hit my body. For now I'll just let my body rest.
