The Day of the Dinner
Third Person:

Grian knocked on the door of Jimmy's room. Walking in after a minute of no response. He opened the door seeing Jimmy asleep with a stack of papers.

Grian shook his head before straightening and moving the papers. He gently shook Jimmy, earring nothing from the fish.

"JIMMY!" Grian yelled, causing the blonde to practically jump out of bed. Grian started laughing, holding onto the bed frame for support.

"Is everything alright?" Martyn asked, running into the room.

Martyn looked at the two of them. Jimmy was massaging his temples, he looked like he'd been hit by a bus. Then, there was Grian. Grian was holding the bedframe with one hand and the other was wrapped around his stomach.

Martyn chuckled. "Come on, Timmy, you've got to get ready." He walked over to Jimmy, grabbing one of  his hands.

"Head hurts." Jimmy said quietly. Jimmy didn't handle pain well, causing him to forget simple things like grammar.

Grian stopped laughing, wrapping Jimmy in a hug. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have screamed."

"It's okay." Jimmy hugged Grian back. "Quiet next time, please."

"Of course." Grian smiled at Jimmy, earning a smile back.

"How about we go get you some pain killer and then you can get ready." Martyn walked off towards the kitchen, Jimmy following behind.

Grian went to Jimmy's closet, picking out dark green pants, a white long sleeve button up, and a dark green suit vest. He grabbed a dark green tie to finish off the look. He put it on the bed, he would come back later to help Jimmy with his hair.

The three had finished getting ready. Grian and Martyn were wearing a white button ups and black pants. Martyn laughed at Grian who wanted nothing more than to put his red sweater back on. Jimmy walked out of his room, messing with his sleeves.

"Keep them rolled down." Martyn said, rolling Jimmy's sleeves down for him.

"My scales feel weird under the shirt though." Jimmy pouted.

"How about we just go get your elf." Grian said, getting ready to pick Jimmy up.

"No, I will fly myself." Jimmy strapped on his elytra, causing Grian to throw his head back in a fit of laughter.

"You can't stand my flying that much?" Grian joked.
.
"Let's just go." Jimmy said, sending Grian off laughing again.

The two flew off, heading towards Rivendell. Jimmy was trying hard to keep up with Grian. Grian laughed every time Jimmy caught up and Grian flew farther away. They finally landed in Rivendell, just outside the castle. Scott was waiting for Jimmy.

"Right on time for once." Scott teased, pulling Jimmy in a hug.

Scott was wearing a turquoise suit. His favorite color. He wore his crown. Jimmy brushed off some of the snow on Scott's suit.

"You ready to go handsome." Jimmy winked at Scott.

"Of course gorgeous." Scott smirked at Jimmy. Jimmy's face flushed.

Jimmy knew Scott was better at flirting and teasing. Yet every day Jimmy still tested Scott. Now here Jimmy was red as a tomato listening to some of the people closest to him giggle at him.

They made their way back to the Cod Empire. Jimmy trying to land without making a fool of himself in front of Scott. He failed, miserably.

"Cod, I wish Lizzie were here." Grian laughed, not even making an effort to help Jimmy up.
