"I have a proposal for you"

Sometimes you have to suffer in life,

not because you were bad,

but because you didn't realize where and when to stop being good.

After our little rendezvous, Techno and I both cleaned up for the banquet.

One thing I realized very quickly is the toll that is taken on your body because of sex. I could barely walk and everything felt sore and numb.

Thankfully Techno had learned how to brew potions while living alone. After drinking a regeneration potion I felt almost fully normal. 

"Maybe I would have studied harder if I had known this is what I'd do with my brewing skills." Techno joked.

"It sure came in handy. Sam would kill me if he found out I couldn't walk at our banquet." I cringed just thinking of the lecture I would get.

"Well, I think it's time for me to head back to my room and get ready," I said.

"I'll come by in about an hour."

"Sounds good," I said kissing his cheek.

I left his room and immediately was met with the grumpy face of Schlatt.

He stared at me for a second and I gave him a weirded-out look in return before continuing down the hall.

When I got to my room, I threw my dirty clothes into my laundry bin and headed to the bathroom.

I jumped in horror as I saw one particularly large hickey on the side of my neck. No wonder Schlatt looked at me weird. This was so embarrassing.

I grabbed some makeup and quickly hid it but the damage had already been done. How was I ever supposed to look Schlatt in the eyes again? I'd have to ignore him at all costs.

I continued to get ready and pulled my dress out of the closet.

It was a gray-blue color and decorated with pearls and lace. The shoulders were very short and decorated elaborately. The dress came with a pair of lace gloves of the same color. It was beautiful and I remembered the day I had bought it fondly.

Puffy and I had gone out to the shops and searched all day for ball downs and party dresses until we found the perfect ones.

I smiled suddenly excited to see all my friends dressed their best.

I pulled out my jewelry box and selected a pearl necklace that featured a diamond on the front and matching diamond earrings.

Next, I did my make-up putting on a darker shade of red lipstick. I also pulled my hair up into a classy bun letting my bangs curl around my face.

Done!

Now the night would begin and I'd have to deal with whatever dramatics would come my way. I'd just have to hope everyone would try and get along.

I walked out of my room and smiled to see a certain pink-haired man waiting for me. He looked stunning in his black suit and pants which framed his muscles beautifully.

"You look exquisite, my dear." He complimented taking my hand in his own.

"You as well, my good sir." I joked.

He chuckled and led us to the dining hall which had been completely decorated since we last saw it.

The lights were dimmed and candles were everywhere. Each chair had a nametag in front of it signaling who was to sit where. Sam had put in extra effort to make sure it would cause the least amount of conflict possible. A red cloth had been set over the long mahogany table that seated everyone. The fine china and silverware were brand new and top quality like never seen before.
