"Cadenza!!!" I turned and got tackled by Lucinda, "Lucinda what's the big deal" I yelled slowly getting to my feet. "IS IT TRUE THAT CHASE ASKED YOU TO THE BALL!!!" Lucinda squealed in my ear while jumping excitedly up and down. "Yes he did" "REALLY YOU SAID YES TO HIM RIGHT?" Lucinda grabbed my hands and kept jumping higher and higher and started yelling louder and louder.

"Lucinda calms down" "okay but you have to tell me if you accepted in five seconds otherwise I'll scream". Lucinda stopped jumping and just had this cheeky face planted on her. "Chase asked me and I said I would think about it sooo, yeah". "WHAT WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY YES" Lucinda yelled even louder. "Well I don't trust him yet and plus I'm already going to the ball with someone else".

"WHAT WHO!!!" Lucinda is just one big bomb waiting to go off. "Well.... it's...... V... Vylad" "eh... EHHHHHH Vylad wait why are you blushing?" Lucinda was really shocked. "I.. I'm blushing?" "Yeah, you are plus stuttering on almost every word you say". "W... WHAT NO IM NOT" Lucinda is staring at me as if I'm being stupid. "You just stuttered... again".

I then turned around and started to walk away. "Wait for Cadenza, since the ball is tomorrow night why don't I come over to your house after school and we can look for a dress together?" "Sur..." oh wait I'm staying at Vylads house... "um I'm busy after school I'm sorry Lucinda" I give her my best fake smile. "Oh really, well I guess that can't be helped see you later" Lucinda was sad but tried not to show it.

I walked backward expecting to lie against the wall but instead, Chase was behind me. "Oh hi Cadenza soo, have you decided if you want to go to the ball with me?" his smile is so cute, but also.... fake. "Oh yeah about that I've decided to go to the ball with Vylad thank you for the offer but no thanks, bye" I smile then start to walk off.

AFTER SCHOOL VYLADS HOUSE

"Cadenza darling" Aretha walked up to me, "I forgot to ask, when is your school Ball" Aretha smiled as if she was about to kill me... mums are seriously creepy. "Um, tomorrow night" Aretha's eyes slowly opened with a death glare aimed at me. "Hmm tomorrow night huh, well we better start to look for a dress for you to wear shall we". Aretha's eyes started to gleam "well what are we waiting for let's go shopping".

Aretha dragged me all the way to the mall we stayed in the mall for SIX HOURS... SIX HOURS ARE YOU KIDDING ME THAT'S EVEN WORSE THAN LUCINDA WHEN SHE TAKES ME TO THE MALL!!!. Ahem well, at least I've got myself a dress for tomorrow night. "MUM WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN IT'S BEEN... I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW LONG BUT WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN??."

"hehe," Aretha giggled "sorry Vylad it's a secret" Aretha then winked at me "I'll go put these away then" she then walked off. "So are you going to tell me where you were? or are you going to keep it a secret?. He gave me his signature smirk "well let me see? hmm, should I tell you... Nah" I returned his smirk, "hey no fair" as he said that he pouted. "That's not going to work on me" I then started to run away from Vylad, "hey wait up" I ran until I bumped into d'artagnan "whoa slow down there" d'artagnan smiled "oh sorry hehe" "shame you got in trouble" Vylad playfully punched my shoulder.

I kicked the table faking that my foot was injured"VYLAD WHY DID YOU KICK ME YOU BULLY !!!" d'artagnan turned around "Vylad why did you kick Cadenza I thought you were a mature grown up as a punishment you cannot have dessert for tonight" then d'artagnan turned and walked away. "Heh were even now" his mouth was wide open in shock? "how is that even... you're not as innocent as you seem" he points his finger at me moving it up and down.

THE NEXT DAY - LUNCHTIME

"OMG IM SO EXCITED THE BALL IS TONIGHT!!! YASSSSS" Lucinda was yelling in her date's ear. James held one hand on his ear "wow I never knew you could be this loud" James smiles brightly at Lucinda and she is really in love with him. "Hey didn't Chase ask you to the dance? he did but he never told any of us what you replied." James turned his eyes wanting to know even wanting to beg to know my reply. "Well, I told him no, since I already have another person I'm going with" "really you choose someone else over chase I never thought I'd meet a girl like that, interesting".

"Sup guys" Vylad playfully hits me on the back. "Hmm" I turn to give Vylad my signature death stare, "whoa down kitty" he put's his hands in the air walking cautiously around me. "DID YOU JUST CALL ME A CAT!!!!!" "okay time for me to run, bye" he starts running as if his life depended on it. "HEY IM NOT LETTING YOU GET AWAY!!!".

"I ran at Vylad before I was stopped and some random person grabbed my arm pulling me around a corner into an empty room. "Hey what's the big idea" the person let go of my arm and then I recognized who it was? "Chase? what are you doing you just dragged me away before I could kill Vylad that little..." I looked up then cleared my throat, "so did you want to speak with me?" Chase looks up with sad eyes but for some reason, I couldn't tell if his emotion was real or fake. "U-um well, I-I just wanted to tell you th-that I r-really like you so when y-you told me you w-were going to the ball w-with someone else I-I-I didn't like it." He seems to be telling the truth but...

"I'm sorry but I don't feel the same way about you" I look behind me to see the door, "I'm not giving up yet" Chase then turns around head towards a different exit. I leave the class to see Vylad on the other side. "Vylad you scared me for a second" I take a deep breath. "So that was Chase huh?" I look up at him "yep but I have absolutely nothing to do with him" I smile then walk away.

A FEW MINUTES BEFORE THE SCHOOL DANCE

"There your all dressed and ready for the ball" Aretha smiled "I look stupid" I look at myself through the mirror. "Oh don't be silly, dear how is Vylad doing?" Aretha yelled while still looking at me" *sigh* "Yes he is already.

Vylad looked handsome whoa whoa whoa... what am I thinking. "You look stunning" Vylad smiles at me. "Not too bad yourself" I smirk at him, "what does that mean I look amazing if I do say so myself" he crosses his arms over his chest acting all high and mighty. "Yeah, whatever you say to make yourself happy" I pat him on the shoulder "hey". "Well you two should take off otherwise you'll be late and we don't want that" Aretha was trying to shove us out the door. "What's the rush it won't be too bad if were fashionably late, right Cadenza" Vylad smiles at Aretha. "Well, I just don't want you two to be late".

"Alright, mum we'll be off now" we both decided to walk but Aretha insisted we took a limo which she prepared for us and how could we go up against Aretha she can be super scary. We arrived at the ball only to be stared at by everyone.
