I took a deep breath and put the armband on, and put the other things in my bags. I walked down the wooden stairs carefully, "There you are!" White was there. With the rest of my friends, "You look perfect,"She said smiling brightly.

"Almost perfect," Yuki handed me the box he showed me earlier that day.

"Now you can put it on,"Joe was loosening his tie as he spoke. So i opened the box and saw two pretty hair pins. It was a gold style hair accessory. The pearls were small and fragile and the golden leaves beside it seemed almost real.

"It's lovely,"I said as i put them in my hair. "Thank you,"He smiled at my pleased expression. The party went on without a hitch, i knew that i'd never forget that day. I knew it wasn't just because of the party decorations, like the small hot air balloon lanterns, or the cylinder tea light holders. It was because of everyone's smiles and laughs. It was because of their love. I made sure to take pictures. Even though i knew i didn't need them, because the memories were already set in stone in my heart.

"Thank you for coming,"I was waving goodbye to everyone.

"I'll see you soon,"White winked at me.

"Yeah yeah,"I laughed and hugged her goodbye. Although it was more like a see you in 20 minutes kind of hug. When i could no longer see her back i turned around and headed inside.

"What are you guys doing standing there like that?" As i closed the door the 3 guys were there looking at me intently.

"We want your answer,"Yano was the first to speak.

"Yano informed us, and we decided we want to go too!" Yuki said with a pouty face.

"Wh-what?"i was at a loss for words.

"If these two trouble makers are going you have to take me along as well!" This time it was Joe who spoke.

"Hold on! I never said i'd take anyone!"

"But White's going!" Yano sounded like a child.

"Yes but i've known her my whole life,"I tried to speak to them calmly.

"You've known me your whole life!" Joe yelled.

"A-and i've known him ever since he joined the order!" Yuki followed shortly after.

"Well it's the first time i've ever left my father's castle... and it kind of seems like i'm looking at everything for the first time so... you're practically my whole world!" As they shot me these statements one after another i was dumbfound. What do i tell them? Do i say yes? But that goes against my whole plan! I thought of what to tell them as they continued to speak.
