"Excuse me if I don't know who you are" - I said. As I was thinking about Freya I still haven't figure out who she is. Maybe she...no or she was...no. Who am I kidding I have no idea who to hell she is.

"Of course you don't know who I am, you were so small when they took you away from us" - she started saying. She really knows how to confuse me. I gave her a confused look.

"You should be at least about a thousand years old by now" - I said.

"What? Oh...that. You of all people should understand that" - she said. She did have a point. I allegedly stopped aging and she is the original sister so I shouldn't be surprised.

"Hope, I didn't come here to talk about how old I am, I came here to...." - she started but I cut her off because I already knew what she was going to say.

"You came here to talk me into giving them a chance" - I said because I was so annoyed by that sentence.

"No"

"No?" - I said and now I am officially confused.

"I came here to invite you to a party... well not party, a ball under the masks" - she said. I didn't know how to react to that.

 I have only been to one ball in my life so I don't know much about them. I mean I can dance, it is not that. It's that the last ball I've been to was with my parents...

"Is that a yes?" - she asked and I didn't have an answer.

 What the hell, why not - I thought.

"Sure" - I said as she smiled and gave me an invitation and vanished in thin air.

A ball. I am going to a ball. Shit. I have nothing to wear. 

"Alex!" - I yelled because I knew she was the one who set me up to meet with Freya and that means she is around here.

"Yes!" - she yelled back. When I heard her I used my vamp speed to get to her.

"And...." - she said. She was clearly waiting for me all this time. 

"We are going shopping"

- At the evening -

I was looking at myself in mirror. 

I was wearing a long black dress and...apparently I was late.

"Hope come on, we are going to be late" - Alex said angrily.

"Here I am" - I said as I appeared behind her. She screamed and jumped.

I scared her and that felt so good; like you know that feeling when your friend... or sister... or brother...or anyone,  annoys you and you want to get back to them so you sneak up on them and you scare the shit out of them, well that is this feeling.

"Oh my God, stop doing that! I would beat you up but we don't have time for that so...after you" - she said as she opened the door. I smirked. 

"What?" - she said.

"Nothing..." - I said trying to hold my laugh.

"Hope, don't make me ask you again."

"Oh, nothing, just get in the car." - I said still trying to hold my laugh and let's just say that it wasn't really successful. She knew something was wrong but she still got in the car.

"I don't understand what... oh... there is no gas...perfect. And you", she turned to me, "stop laughing" When she said that I seriously started crying and literally dying from laughing. But, then Danielle came with her car and we all know what that means...
