[20/08/2012, 12:32PM]

Karsyn woke up from a long sleep, he saw Euphoria flicking through the book.
"...What are you doing?"
"Oh you're awake! I was just reading the page about Romero."
"Maybe don't do it when I'm sleeping..."
"You aren't even sleeping now."
"Whatever...where's the others?"
"They're eating."
"Oh...have you eaten?"
"No, I just woke up."
Karsyn looked down and saw that he was still in his suit, "AGHHHHHHH!!!!"
"Shut up, the others will hear you!"
"No! I was meant to wear this tonight!"
"Wha-"
"It's your fault!"
Karsyn overheard Idyllic and Clairé laughing, all he heard was:
"I'm pretty sure he had a hangover..."
Karsyn stared at Euphoria and nervously laughed while suggesting, "How about we go and get breakfast?"
Euphoria nodded and they headed over to the dining table. Jolene smiled and began to cackle, "Good morning Karsyn! Sheesh, you know...Idyllic was telling everyone that you had a hangover and that's why you left so early...she's only joking!"
Karsyn slapped himself across the face, "Oh my god...why did I even wake up..."
"ALSO NOT TO MENTION THAT EUPHORIA WAS SLEEPING WITH YOU!!! HE WAS SO WORRIED ABOUT YOU THAT HE DECIDED TO SLEEP RIGHT NEXT TO YOU!!!"
"W-What...???" Karsyn said, twitching his eyes at Euphoria and grinning as if he was about to slap him.
"Uhh...maybe I should go-" Euphoria said, turning around.
"You haven't even eaten!" Jolene inferred, pointing to the toast on the table.
Karsyn remembered the ball in the evening. His mood suddenly changed, he was just emotionless, he didn't know what to think.
"What's up with you?" Lorenzo asked.
"Nothing, really."
"Hey guys, want to see a magic trick? I can make the truth come out of him in no time-"
Karsyn knew what he was about to do so he quickly picked up his toast and ran across the dining room table, Euphoria tried to catch him, but he didn't. This lasted for three minutes, until Euphoria gave up.
"Fine. Nevermind."
"By the way, Karsyn. I'm letting you have some of my old clothes that I don't wear anymore, I left them on my bedside."
"Thanks. I'm going to have a shower now ciao-"
Euphoria pulled his arm so that he was close to him and breathed under his neck, "Why were you so angry?"
"I wasn't angry-"
Karsyn pulled away and ran to the bathroom. Euphoria huffed and raised his eyebrows, "So, Lorenzoooo-"
"I know what you're going to say. No. No. AND NO!"
"What was I going to say then, huh?"
Lorenzo cleared his throat and mocked him in a high pitched voice, "Will you marry Jolene in the future?"
"Yep..."
"NO!"
"Lorenzo, dear...don't stress yourself, we won't get married.
Euphoria, how about you go and marry Karsyn?"
"WHAT?"
"YEAH EUPHORIA GO AND MARRY KARSYN, AND THEN YOU'LL KISS AT THE WEDDIN-"
"SHUT THE HELL UP IDYLLIC!!!!!!!"
"I was joking!"
Euphoria headed back to the guest room, where Karsyn was sleeping, picked up the book and started to read a paragraph of the book. It was about Romero, and all of the male heirs. Euphoria was startled when he heard Karsyn's footsteps. He ran out of the room, leaving the book on the bedside. He ran to Idyllic and smiled at her sarcastically, just to make sure that Karsyn didn't suspect him of snooping around his room.
"Soooo...! Heh, Idyllic, found anyone special yet...?"
"Uh, no? How about you?"
"Um...sort of, kind of...no!"
"You sure?"
"Yep-"
"EUPHORIAAAAAA!!!!!!!!"
"YEAH, KARSYN?!"
"CAN YOU GRAB LORENZO'S UNWANTED CLOTHES FOR ME PLEASE? HE TOLD ME HE LEFT THEM ON HIS BEDSIDE!"
"OKAY!!!!"
Euphoria hurried to Lorenzo's room, picked up all the clothes and went to the guest room, he knocked on the door and Karsyn answered. As soon as he saw Karsyn wrapped in a towel, he shut his eyes.
"What's your problem?"
"I-I can't look!"
"I'm all covered, just hand the clothes over and stop being foolish."
Euphoria was taking random steps with his eyes clothes, he thought that he was putting the clothes on the bed, but stupidly enough, he was actually putting the clothes on Karsyn's lap.
"Just open your eyes."
He opened one eye and then the other. As soon as he saw his hands, filled with clothes on Karsyn's lap, he screamed.
"AAHHHH!!!!"
He curled up in a ball and began to hit himself. Karsyn blinked twice and his eyebrows furrowed, "I thought you said you can't look."
Euphoria got up and ran out of the room. He covered his red face with his hands and waited for Karsyn.

[20/08/2012, 15:45PM]
Euphoria was in his room, preparing for the ball in the evening, that was, until Karsyn came knocking on the door.
"Euphoria...?"
"Yes, Karsyn?"
"Do you remember what Wanderer said about 'appearing different' to Romero?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Maybe we should listen to them, and try and make me look a bit different."
"Ehh...okay, I'll try. How about we...trim that long hair of yours?"
"Okay." Karsyn agreed, sitting on Lorenzo's bed.
Euphoria's heart buzzed, he couldn't believe he was about to cut Karsyn's hair. He took a pair of scissors from Lorenzo's drawer and began to cut his hair. He stuck his tongue out with concentration as he was working.
"I won't cut it too long...I'll just make sure it's comfortable for you..."
"I don't really care, I trust you."
Euphoria cut his hair slightly shorter than shoulder length, but he didn't care.
"Is this okay?" he asked, holding a mirror.
"Yeah that's fine. I can always re-grow my hair so it doesn't matter!"
"We can't really change anything about your face...so I think your hair will do for now."
"Thank you, Euph!!!" Karsyn cheered, leaving the room.
Euphoria went outside of the room to go and ask Jolene for a broom and a dustpan to sweep up the hair off of the floor and the bed, and then, he went to go and iron the clothes Lorenzo sowed for the others.
On the contrary, Karsyn was reading the book. But he stopped to go and check up on Euphoria. From the corner of his eye, he saw Euphoria ironing clothes. He sneakily tip-toed towards him and hugged him from behind.
"Ah-"
"Hey Euph..."
"Oh, it's only you. Get off of me, I'm trying to iron."
"Fine, fine..."
Euphoria was almost finished ironing, sweat was dripping down from his forehead, but he ignored it.
"Soo...are you going to do anything with your hair?"
"No, I might tie it up, or ask Jolene to do it for me...only because I can't be bothered to do my hair myself!"
"I hear. Anyways, what am I wearing?"
Euphoria stood up the iron on the iron board, turned it off and handed Karsyn his clothes. He was wearing a tuxedo, the kind that aristocrats would wear.
"Hang it up, lamp post."
"I will. But before I do that, let me ask you a question."
"Go on then."
"Why do you call me lamp post?"
"Because you're tall, just like a lamp post. Now, go and do what I asked you."
Karsyn went inside Lorenzo's room, picked up an extra hanger and hung up his outfit for the ball. He sighed and decided to return back to reading the book. He went inside the guest room and resumed reading.
