1 Weeks and five days left until the party

No POV

A week and five days until Adora gets to see Catra again, and Adora was going through a roller coaster of emotions. Or the lovestruck stages of grief.

1. Confirmation
*When King Jasper was at BrightMoon*
Adora and the others were dumbstruck. Catra, she's alive. "You mean Catra. Like Catra Catra?" Adora questioned. "With Almond-shaped heterochromatic eyes, freckles on her cheeks, and light brown horizontal markings on her arms?" King Jasper chuckled. "Yes Adora, that Catra." Adora covered her mouth and she started to tear up.

Bow rubbed her back and handed her some tissues. "King Jasper, we would be delighted to go to the party." Glimmer said giving Adora a hopeful smile. "Great, I'll send you the location of the Kingdom, and here is a list of everything you need to know." Jasper handed a gold and red scroll to Glimmer.

He thanked the princesses for their time and for excepting the invitation and then he left the meeting room. Then Adora couldn't hold it back anymore, she let her tears out and started crying uncontrollably, the other princesses got up from their seats and went in for a group hug. In between all the sniffs and hicks, Adora was only able to say. "She's alive."

2. Over the moon
*Present*
Bow was walking to the meeting room and with his tablet in hand. He looked over what they had to cover that morning. Then he bumped into someone as he was about to enter the meeting room. He looked up to see Glimmer peeking into the meeting room. "Hey hon, watcha ya doing?"

"There's no way, it's not possible." Glimmer whispered to her self. "What's not possible." Bow questioned. Bow peeked into the meeting room. "No, way." What they saw was a shock because usually Adora is the last one to come into the meeting room, but for the past few days she has been the first person to get to the meeting room.

"Morning Adora." Glimmer said as the couple entered the room. "Bow, Glimmer." Adora said as she got up from her chair and gave them a hug. They've noticed this too, Adora has been a lot more cheerful ever since Jasper visited. "Ok this is been going on for long enough. Adora, what's up with you?" Glimmer questioned as she pulled away from the hug.

"Glimmer what do you mean?" Adora said is she sat back down. "You know exactly what I mean. Before King Jasper invited us to the party you were always the last one to come into the morning meetings. But now you're the first person to come into the morning meetings, you've been super happy and cheerful you haven't gotten angry ever since. What. Is up. With you?"

"Glimmer, I have no idea what you're talking about." Glimmer groaned and slumped back in her seat rubbing the sides of her temples. "You're impossible."

3. Excitement
*One week left until the party*
Adora could barely contain her excitement. One more week, one more week until she gets to see Catra again. "One more week, AH. I wish time would go faster." She flopped on her bed. "So that's why you've been acting weird." Adora jumped from the voice behind her. She turned around to see Bow and Glimmer at her door with knowing smirks. "Oh um, hey guys. You two ah. You two heard that huh?"

Glimmer and Bow chuckled. "Yup." Glimmer said. Adora rubbed the back of her neck in embarrassment. "Sorry guys it's just, after all these years of dreaming of Catra being alive, I just still can't believe that it's real." Bow and Glimmer walked over to Adora and gave her a side hug. "Well Adora, this is real. Catra is alive and you're going to see her again." Bow said cheerfully. "And hopefully, you'll finally tell her how you feel." Glimmer said wiggling her eyebrows.

Adora blushed and covered her face. "Glimmer!" Glimmer laughed a little. "Sorry Adora, I couldn't help myself. But I am happy to see that your acting like your old self again." Adora smiled "Thanks Glimmer." Bow and Glimmer started walking to the door. "No problem Adora. Goodnight."

"Night." Adora said as they close the door. She changed into her pajamas and slipped into bed. But before she dozed off to sleep she said. "Goodnight, Catra."

4. Wondering
*Five days left until the party*
Adora was at the BrightMoon training area. She wasn't really training she was just thinking, well, wondering why Catra left in the first place. "Why did she run away?" Adora pondered. "Did she hate us?" No, that can't be the answer. If she did hate us then she wouldn't of invited us to her party. "Was she forcefully taken?" No, that can't be the answer either, from what Jasper had said it sounded like she willingly went. "Did she run away, on purpose?" That... that one can't be true but it would make sense I mean she has done it before but why?

5. Anxious
*three days left until the party*
Adora was pacing her room she went through so many emotions in the past few days. But now the day was getting closer Adora started to feel a bit scared. Scared of what Catra might say when she sees her, scared of what would Catra say when Adora tells her how she feels, and scared to lose her again.

"That can't happen, that won't happen." Adora walked out to her balcony and looked up at the night sky gazing at the stars. "Catra, you have no idea how much I love you."
