" She remembers the prom night", Blake said, looking at Eros . Kristine was staring out of the window, and on hearing this she turned and jumped in joy.

"We did it! It's just been one day and we-"

"Does she remember anything else?", Eros enquired, sitting down beside Blake. Blake shook his head.

"No, not yet", he said, disappointed.

"Oh God, you boys are so pessimistic. She remembers the prom night, now, isn't that great?", Kristine said, happily. Blake nodded lightly. Kristine looked out of the window, and then suddenly, squealed in joy.

"You're going to the prom night again", she said, grinning. "Yes, why didn't I think of this before?"

Blake and Eros looked up at her.

"The prom night, again? No, off course not, Kristine...", Blake said.

"It was SEVEN years back", Eros stated.

"Exactly. And she remembers it. So if we do it again there is a possibility that she remembers a bit more", Kristine stated. Eros and Blake remained silent, thinking over what Kristine had said. They realized it made sense.

"Yes, but going to the prom night again—", Blake began.

"Okay, so its final. Today evening. Lucy and you are going for a prom night!", Kristine said, smiling.

"No—"

"Oh , shut up, now!"

"Luucyyy", Kristine sang, as she entered Lucy's room. Lucy was sitting on the bed, reading a book. She looked up at Kristine and smiled.

"Hey Kristine", she said. Kristine smiled and sat down beside her .

"I've got good news for you", she said.

"Yeah? What is it?"

"You're having a prom today. It's your prom day", Kristine said. Lucy raised her eyebrows at her.

"Suddenly a prom night?"

"Yeah"

Lucy smiled. "I don't have a partner, a dress or anything that's needed for a prom. Besides its too sudden", she said.

Kristine laughed. "You don't have to worry about the dress. Its arranged. And as for your  partner, Lucy, let me tell you. You have the world's most spectacular guy as your partner. You have Blake Halter".

Lucy blushed. "Blake?"

Kristine smirked. "Doesn't look like you have a problem. That's great. He'll pick you up at seven", she said, getting up.

"No, Kristine, listen-", Lucy began.

"And yes. I'll come here by five - thirty.", she said and walked out of the room. Lucy sat there, spellbound.

"Are you sure she'll go?  She didn't say a yes , though", Blake said.

"Blake. She can never say a no to you. Stop worrying. Eros get him ready. I'm going to Lucy", Kristine said, picking up numerous bags and a gown from the bed.
