Love Elsewhere

Chapter 4

I hear alarms go off one by one and I groan into my pillow. I'm not ready to wake up to reality yet.

"Wakey wake sunshine! We have to get breakfast and then spend the day getting beautiful!" I hear Celestia say excitedly.

"Ughh, just 5 more minutes."

"Miss, it's almost 11 PM, no more 5 minutes. Get up immediately." Oh wow I didn't realize I slept for so long, I'm usually an early riser. So I get up and do my business in the bathroom and wear a casual outfit to go eat breakfast.

We go to the cafeteria they have made us and see it's bustling with excited girls. In another lifetime, this would be really cute and I'd join them in their excitement.

We spot Daphne and Valerie and head on over to their table. "Hey girls! Did yall have a good night of sleep?" Daphne asks.

"I could barely sleep in excitement! But Akira over here was out cold." Celestia says laughing. I roll my eyes but I smile, because she wasn't wrong.

"I couldn't really sleep either, but not out of excitement, im a little scared." Valerie confesses. Me too sister.

"Yea we were up a little just talking about whether these men are gentleman and if they know how to treat us well. What if they're also really ugly? Not to be shallow, but hey standards are standards." We all laugh at Daphnes comment because she's not wrong, we all want to luck out if we were to be matched with one of the Kunai people.

We then keep chatting while eating our breakfast. My plate has an omelette, hash browns, some turkey sausages, some fruit, and water. It was quite delicious and I'm glad I was being fed quite well.

Once we were done, we headed back to our rooms as we were told by the speakers in the cafeteria. Once we were in our room, Celestia and I started rummaging through our closets trying to figure out what dress to wear. I know I hate this event, but I love dressing up and feeling pretty and we needed to match our makeup to the dress color of our choice.

We were told if we couldn't find a dress, there was a communal walk in wardrobe on the first floor we can go to. So Celestia and I decided to go check it out before confirming our dress. We walked down the stairs since we were only on floor 3. We saw a bunch of other girls coming down too.

As we entered the tall white decorated doors to the walk in closet, my mouth dropped in shock and awe. It felt like the humongous closets in Barbie Life in the Dreamhouse. It looked so beautiful with its golden outline and hangers lined row from row, all outfits organized by color and lengths and designs. I was in awe by the organization and cleanliness of the place.

Celestia and I looked at each other and just knew what we were gonna do so we nodded at each other in agreement. We were both going to split ways and reconvene when we have the dresses we like.

I ran over to the blue dresses immediately since that was my favorite color. I looked all the options and there were various full body, knee high dress, or shorter cocktail dresses. I knew I wanted a long dress so I went for those. I picked out this one gorgeous dress that was a dark glittery navy blue. The shoulders were translucent like and mini flowly straps. The straps were like jellyfish straps that extended from the bottom of the strap onto both sides to the bottom of the dress. It was on the tighter side but it would was so classy and beautiful I had to pick it out.

Then I went to the green dresses area where I scouted out for some that were a light tea green as I've always wanted to wear one of that color. After a few minutes of searching and exchanging hi's with other girls and complimenting their dresses, I found the one.

This was full light tea green gown dress with a corset top and a tulle flowly puffy gown skirt. The corset top was a sweetheart was some mesh flowly off the shoulder design attached. It had beads of pearls and green like diamonds outlining the chest and making a beautiful diagonal cut in shapes of flowers and vines to the waist. This design and pattern was flooding the waistline in a gorgeous way and continues along some parts of the gown. There were a few extra mesh pieces that were added to the waist under the jewels to give the gown more volume and uniqueness, and they went diagonally along the gown. It was quite literally my dream gown.
