(Word Count: 5276)

It was the next morning, and to no surprise the rain was still going. Sighing, the girl got out of bed and squinted with tiredness, as she headed to her bathroom. Turning on the lights, she mentally cringed as they blinded her more. Making her way to the cabinet that held her facial care products, she started washing her face, and slowly the tiredness left her body, and was replaced with adrenaline of being awake, and happiness. As she turned off the lights in the bathroom, she headed to her windows, and moved the curtains out of the way, and was met with the light glow of the day, and if the sound of rain didn't give her a hint it was raining, it sure was, and it was windy. Good thing she got her pair of black boots out last night in case. Sighing, she heads over to her bed and starts to make the bed. As she rids the comforter, throw blanket, and pillows, she starts to stretch and fold sheets, and puts her comforter back on, while stretching it as well. Once she does this, she puts the pillows, throw pillows, and throw blanket. Exhaling with content and satisfaction, she leaves her room quietly to the halls.

As she heads down to the kitchen, expecting there to be no one awake yet, she sees her mother, busying herself with making tea. As she hums quietly to an unknown song or tune to (Y/N).

"Morning Mum!" She says softly, to which her northern jumps at.

"Oh gosh! Good morning to you too, dear. How was your night?" She asks calming herself after the fright.

"It was pretty good. Nothing strange then the usual. How was yours?" She asks, making her way to the cabinet that held cups, and glasses.

"It was fine. I heard you and Will, are going to the dressing shop today correct, and you want me to come along." She said.

"Right, if you don't mind obviously. We just thought that since you had a wonderful taste in fashion, and always helped me choose outfits for fancy events that we go to or host here, that maybe you can help?" She said putting down the cup, and getting a tea bag.

"Oh course, I don't mind, but what exactly are you looking for in dresses, and suits?" Her mother asked, pulling out some bread to toast.

"I'm thinking on a velvet, lace or taffeta dress, but not sure on the color. I do believe though, Will is getting a blue suit, if that helps!" (YN) says to her mother as she adds things to her morning tea.

As the day progresses, Wilbur and (Y/N)'s father wake up, to the lovely breakfast the two made for them, which consisted of toast with butter, jelly, or avocado, accompanied by some sunny side ups, or scrambled eggs, and fruits of course. As Wilbur and (Y/N) excused themselves to get changed, they both decided to procrastinate their time on getting up the stairs, by talking on what they wished to find at the stores.

"So what is your color going to be for the dress?" He asked, as they started heading up the stairs.

"I really am not sure. Maybe green or a teal green? Or even Red. There's just so many choices, and I don't now which type I should get!" She said expressing her mind and emotions with her hands.

"Well if it helps, if neither of us get a date for this supposed ball or formal event, I'll be your date." He said offering the offer as a platonic friendship, and nothing more.

"I'd love to take that offer Will, but I may attend with one of my own friends for fun, besides, you deserve to have fun with some girl." She said, declining the offer, even though he had good intentions, "Oh I forgot, what type of suit are you buying?" She asked.

"Probably a blue one, navy or royal but dark colored. I think traditional colors if anything." He said, thinking back to the suit he desired.

"Well this is where I leave you will, I'll see you in a moment, oh and put something you can bike in, were biking there." She said before making a turn to her bedroom, to which connected to her bathroom.
