         "You should go with this dress." Esmeralda said holding out a pink dress and a matching jacket. I just nodded along.


         "Are you even listening?" My best friend asked. I, again just nodded along because in truth, I wasn't really listening. My night consisted of watching the season finale of  'Heartstopper' and thinking of a guy with gray eyes.

          Esmeralda sighed setting the dress down and plopping on my bed. "So....I saw that you've hit it off with Mr. Berethiam.. And your also having lunch with him today," Esmeralda playfully smacked my arm.

          I smiled. I was a little happy that Daniel had invited me to lunch. It just went to show that I could get a man's attention. A prince no less.

          "And what about you? I couldn't really see his face all that well but if I'm not mistaken, you were dancing with the prince of, what was it?....Spegdoliam?" I wiggled my eyebrows and smirked at her.

          Esmeralda rolled her eyes and got off of my bed. She walked back to the closet and examined more of my clothes. "He's the Prince of being a pain in the ass, that's what he is." Esme muttered.

          "You don't seem to like him. Did he say something to you?" I asked seriously. Higher status than me or not, don't mess with my best friend, I'll curse you out. Well...In my head....and there probably won't be a single curse word involved. But you get what I'm saying!

          Esmeralda just sighed and shook her head. I figured I  wasn't gonna get anything out of her. For as long as I've known Esmeralda, she was always filled with twists and tricks. It made Esmeralda unpredictable towards everyone around her. Even as Esmeralda's best friend, I could never predict most of the things Esme can, will or has done. My best friend is like a vault, keeping many hidden secrets and treasures inside. You find the right code to her and you get the luck of getting all those treasures and secrets. But she wasn't gonna let anybody get ahold of that code any time soon.


         "Well," I  said changing the subject. "I'll wear the dress you picked. Plus I have to get ready now anyway. Will you help me with my hair and make up?"

 
        "Well of course!"
