"What should I wear? What is the theme of the dinner?" I asked Alessandro.
"Well, we are celebrating our win, so I would say simple yet classic."
"Bear, that's my entire wardrobe."
"How about that red dress? It matches your nails."
"It would look nice, and since we're going up the hill, it would be pretty good for some pictures."
"Yes, it would," he agrees.
I pull out the dress. It's a dark red dress with a V neckline, spaghetti straps, and a slit halfway up my leg. The dress comes down to my toes and is covered in silk. It really is quite stunning.
"Gold or silver?"
"Silver suits the dress; gold will just wash you out."
I pull out a matching silver diamond necklace and bracelet set. The bracelet was just tiny diamonds along a tennis bracelet style, and the necklace was exactly the same, just a little looser to drape around my neck.
"What time do we leave?" I ask.
"In about 10 minutes, why?"
"Oh my God, I have to find shoes, do my hair, and find a bag, and oh my God, do I have to touch up my make-up? Does it look good?"
"Princess," his hand touches my shoulder, pulling me out of my spiral. "I've got some heels here; let me put them on for you, and while I'm doing that, you can look over for a bag."
"Thanks." I breathe a sigh of relief.
The shoes he had chosen were simple but beautiful. They were black, with a rope of silver diamonds in a bow at the front of the shoe, wrapping around and then down to my ankle. They also had a stiletto heel, but they are so beautiful that even then, the size of the heel doesn't matter.
As Alessandro finishes tying my shoe, he rubs my leg to calm me down.
"I'll wait downstairs; your make-up looks beautiful, your hair looks beautiful, we're leaving in eight minutes."

"It's so nice when we get to do things like this," Angelina says, sipping a glass of wine.
"I know, and it's kind of a win-win for all of us; the guys get to do guy things, and we get to take pretty pictures in pretty places in pretty outfits," says Abigale.
"And I think we're here because they shot some people. I mean, come on," I say, laughing.
"I know, I think I become a bit desensitised to this sort of thing; I mean, I think I been doing this for too long," Angelina agrees.
"I know, but I'm never going to pass up a free meal; that's all I'm saying," Abigale says.
"Good point." I agree.
"So are you and Alessandro staying here for the night, or are you going back with all of us?" asks Abigale.
"No, we're staying here. We just thought, while we're up here, we might as well, you know. Enjoy it, because we never get to come up here. We're always busy doing something. I say.
"That's true, and it's not like you're slaving away here. You just have the cooks cooking for you," Angelina says.
"It's true; it's like the house moves on wheels wherever we go, and then boom, everyone's here," I say, and we all laugh.
