//Paisley's P.O.V//
"Aloha visitors! Welcome to island of Hawaii, I hope you all have had a wonderful time here!" A gorgeous Hawaiian lady greeted warmly. We were all called to discuss somethings about tomorrow nights masquerade ball.
"I am terribly sorry to have to disturb your peace, but it'll only be for a quick moment! As some of you may have known, tomorrow night is the annual masquerade ball. We have gathered here together to allow us to select our partner, or "date" I suppose, in which you will be arriving and dancing with. When that has been sorted, taxis will arrive to take you all into the city in case you need anything. With that being said, begin the pairing!" The lady walked off to a corner and stood there, probably trying to get out of our way.
Out of the corner of my eye, I spot a tall blonde who wiggled his eyebrows before winking at me. Sighing and shaking my head, in an amused way, I strolled over to the blonde and stood next to him. Smiling, he gave me a side on hug.
"I knew you wouldn't be able to resist me, I just knew it!" Leo teased, booping my nose.
"Keep telling yourself that, if it makes you sleep better at night. But seriously, we both know that I wouldn't go off with some random and, especially, not my brother!" I stated in an as-a-matter-of-fact tone. Rolling his eyes, Leo laughed before nudging me slightly in the ribs causing me to squeal and jump away.
Once everyone had picked their partner (which took a bloody long time!), all we had to do was wait for the taxis which came minutes after. Filing out the door in a civil way, Leo and I were one of the last to reach the taxi (no surprise) and hopped on.
Into the city we go...

"Here we are... Again! Now please don't take too long, actually, you know what? You girls stay here and we'll go get our suits." Royce firmly instructed before spinning on his heel and existing the dress shop with Leo. Mia (Royce's date) and I awkwardly glanced at each other before going our separate ways of find a dress.
Whilst running my hands gently across the dresses, I spotted two girls also looking for an outfit. They might be apart of the masquerade ball tomorrow night. One of the girls was medium height, had a couple of tattoos here and there and had a pixie cut which really suited her. For some reason, I felt that I had seen her before.
She looked... Familiar?
Eventually, the girl had caught sight of me and kept her stare firmly fixed on me. Being the polite and friendly person that I am, although really I was a bit creeped out, I responded with a genuine smile... Which she completely ignored! How rude?
Moving on with my life, I had started the serious hunt for the PERFECT dress. Hey! I wanna impress Leo. After a few minutes of looking, I came across "The One".
The ultimate dress.
It was a beautiful blue dress which had a soft and silky texture to it. The top part was rumpled slightly and it had a bit of a V line, but it wouldn't expose much; the side also dipped below the arm pit. It hugged my body nicely and in all the right places which made it look stunning on me.
I bought it obviously. Who wouldn't?
Once Mia was done with choosing her dress, we decided to head off for the Starbucks and wait for the boys... And people think girls take forever!
As I was walking out the shop, I passed by the girl and, again, we made eye contact but, this time, I ain't smiling at her. So I walked off, I know that it may seem rude but she didn't return the smile! The effort I went through to smile at a stranger, she don't understand.
Entering the quiet café, we ordered our drinks before sitting ourselves down at a table outside the building. It was very awkwardly silent and I hated it, I like to talk but this bitch will barely even look at me. About 20, or so, minutes later, the boys had returned, finally, with their needs. And with that, we were back in a taxi and going back to the hotel.
•••••••••••••••|||||||•••••••••••••••
"Staying in our room tonight?" Royce asked softly, his eyes slightly saddened. Nodding my head, Royce unlocked the door and let me walk in, Leo following.
Leo threw me a towel and, as per usual, one of his t-shirts. Leo nodded his head in the direction of the bathroom, signalling to me that the shower was free and that I should go in there quickly before he does. So I went for a nice relaxing shower and had started to think about the ball and what it would be like, all that sort of stuff.
But the one thing that would always push its way into the very front of my mind was that girl in the shop from earlier in the day.
