Halona spit out what was left of the cake in her mouth.

"Wha-what!?" She blurted.

"It appears I have been invited to a ball he is hosting in a week and I'm allowed to bring a guest." He said happily. Halona looked at Jade nervously.

"Um. . ." She gulped. "Are you sure? I mean. . . This sort if thing is for nobles and well. . . You kn-"

"The Invitation did not specify whether or not my guest is of noble classification. Besides, is it wrong to show off my love to the world?" Ciel asked with a smile. Halona looked at how happy he was to take her. She couldn't bring herself to say no.

"Alright. . ." She finally agreed. Ciel smiled and kissed her cheek.

"Wonderful. Sebastian, come, we must practice my dancing."

"Yes, My Lord." Sebastian said as he followed his young master. Once they left the room Halona banged her head on the table.

"Why didn't you say no?" Jade asked. Halona groaned.

"He looked so excited about taking me I didn't want to ruin it." She explained.

"Excited? How can you tell? He had an anime deadpan expression the whole time!"

"I can just tell."

"Weirdo."

"Bitch."

"Jerk."

"Great now we're the Winchester's!" Jade exclaimed. Halona tilted her head in confusion.

"Who?"

"Nevermind it's not that era yet anyways back to the problem at hand: you, at a ball, YOU!"

"Thanks friend." Halona said sarcastically.

"Look I'm just saying that you're not exactly well. . . You'll drive everyone out in the first five minutes."

"I will not!" Halona shouted defensively. Jade clicked her tounge.

"Remember when Undertaker took you to that festival last year?"She asked. Halona blushed and stood up.

"That was not my fault!"

"You fucking let loose the farm animals because the donkey 'told you so'!"

"He did tell me! Maybe he was a familiar like you!"

"I was with you I can tell when one is a familiar, you can't! He was not a familiar he was just a donkey!"

"So!?" Jade facepalmed.

"Listen, if you are going to go to this ball, you need to know how to act like a lady."

"Well who is going to teach me that!? You!?" Jade laughed.

"Oh hell no. Tell me, who do we know that is of high society and is a proper lady?" Halona thought for a moment.

"Oh no. . ." She muttered. Jade smirked.

"Oh yes!"












"Um. . . Why do I have to do this again?" Halona asked. She had a small stack of books on her head while trying to walk in a straight line.

"Because a lady must have perfect balance." Elizabeth explained. Halona took one more step forward, but fell down. The hard books toppled over her head.

"Ugh! Damn!" She groaned in pain. Jade chuckled.

"You wanna try!?" The witch shook her head slowly while backing away.
