"A party at Lady Penelope's stately home, oh great" I muttered to myself

"It will be fine honestly" Virgil reassured me

"I hate parties" I snapped

"I know, but Lady Penelope said something about suspicious guests and she wanted us to check it out" Virgil grinned

"Well let me have my breakfast and I'll get ready" I sighed

"I'll make you some cheese on toast" Virgil offered

"Ok sweetie, I'll just be choosing my dress out" I mumbled, I didn't have any dresses, f*ck

"I might have something" Grandma Tracy told me when she saw my concerned expression

She went to the attic and she produced a dress that was gorgeous

"Isn't that one of Lucy's dress" I asked

"Yes, luckily you and her are the same size" Grandma Tracy laughed

I walked down the stairs to greet Virgil but he just froze up, he stared at me in horror, I wanted to know why but he backed up against a wall and he slid down it, I realised why he was acting like this, I was doing this to him, I was torturing him

"It's all my fault" I cried and I ran off to my room

*Virgil's POV*

I was in agony, I know feeling like this wouldn't bring our mum back but I miss her so much

"Virgil I'm sorry I didn't realise" Grandma comforted me

"I want my mummy" I sobbed

"I know you do sweetie, I should of thought about it before I made her wear it, I didn't know you were still upset about it" Grandma whispered and she began stroking my hair

"I could of done something, it was my fault that she died" I wailed

"Virgil none of it was your fault, you couldn't of stopped her from dying" Grandma sighed and she wiped my pathetic tears 

"I think, I should go and apologise to Olivia" I muttered

"That would be a good idea" Grandma laughed quietly

I went to find Olivia she was crying her eyes out, I had made her feel like this

"I'm s-sorry" Olivia apologised

"It's not your fault, you didn't know" I tried to stop her from feeling like sh*t

"It is my fault I knew you weren't over it, I'm such a stupid little piece of sh*t" Olivia whispered

I wrapped my arms around her, she was shaking so much, this is all my fault

"To be honest I think you look beautiful in that dress" I told her

"Really" Olivia wondered

"Yes, I think you're the most beautiful girl ever" I love complimenting her, I love it when her face goes red, it's adorable

"I feel like an idiot" Olivia grumbled

"Well you're not, you just reminded me of my mum, I freaked out because I miss her" I explained

Olivia nuzzled my neck, she was so cold
