"Aika..."

I rose out of my bed, being called out of slumber wasn't an ideal wakening. My eyes open wide, and I felt a hand being placed on my shoulder. I didn't dare to look back. Although, the voice was familiar.

"I-Ichiru?" Before I could look , the touch had left my skin.

"How could you tell so quickly?" He steps in front of me. His eyes gleaming through his mask. "It's been so long."

"You act like I hate you..." I stood up, as soon as I did he raised his katana and pushed the tip right on my stomach, being careful not to break through to the skin. "Uncalled for," I look to the side.

"Uncalled for? Lets not forget your task that you've been presented with, Aika."

"Uncalled for because if you don't let me get ready, the task will never be delivered." My hand pushes the katana to the side and I head for the bathroom.

A slight knock envelops the room, with that, Ichiru was gone.

Ichiru...

I open the door, "what a pleasant surprise, didn't I just see you like 2 hours ago, Kaname?" I step beside and he walks in with a box wrapped in ribbon.

"I came to give you your gift. I see you got a little bit of sleep." His hand move to my face and he gently rubs my under eye.

He hands me the gift, with my eyes following his stature, I open it. The white silk fabric with a floral blue print took my breath away. "K-Kaname, I cant take this... A princess deserves to wear this, not a commoner like me." I put the cover back on, in an attempt to give it back. Instead, he placed his hands on mine.

"Aika, my Love, you deserve everything." He moves my hands and takes the dress out. He gestures for me to turn around, as i do, he takes the dress and puts it over me. Looking into the mirror, he sees my smile slowly becomes parent on my face. "Look how beautiful you'd be." 

I take it from him and keep beside me. I turn to him and look down at the dress. "You really think so?"

"You make the most beautiful things even more perfect. Times moving, so do you. Go get ready, I'll be waiting on the balcony for you..." He smiles at me and leaves

"Im spoiled," I sweat drop, the dress really is drop dead gorgeous.

———

I got ready, put on just light makeup and curled my hair slightly.  "Do I look good, or do I look stupid?" I put on the white kitty heels to go with it.

I  walk out of my dorm and head to the ballroom. Zero was outside, with a rose on his uniform looking more gloomy than usual. He saw me and his jaw slightly dropped. "Aika...?!"

"Aika?" Headmaster comes out. He finally catches me. "AHHH! AIKAMYDEARYOU'REALLDRESSEDUP!"

"Slow down, Head Master, its just a dress."

"JUST A DRESS? YOU LOOK LIKE A REAL PRINCESS!" He starts crying. He pats his eye in the process. "Zero, did you tell her she's beautiful yet!?" He nudges him.
