Quigley's POV

It's been 5 days since the incident at the baseball game. That's when I really wanted to ask Violet to the masquerade ball but Carmelita just had to come and ruin it. That's it. Today I'm going to ask her. No excuses. I started to walk over to the orphan shack where Isadora, Duncan and I wait for the Baudelaire's. As I was waiting, the door bursted open. All I see is Violet in a beautiful light blue dress. She looks so beautiful. I tried to dress up today to ask her but seeing her makes me weak in the knees.

Violet's POV

I wanted to dress up a bit today hoping Quigley would notice me. If Carmelita won't mess it up again. When I walked out of the orphan shack I saw Quigley looking absolutely amazing in his black slacks and a light blue collared shirt and a thick wool sweater. I couldn't help but stare. After Klaus snapped me out of it by nudging my side, we started to walk to class.

No ones POV

After class, the Baudelaire's and Quagmire's went to lunch. Quigley tugged lightly on Violet's jacket. "Hey can I talk to you for a minute?" He said. "Yeah, sure." Violet replied. They waled to a corner of the cafeteria. "So I was wondering if you had a date to the masquerade ball..." Quigley said, nervously. "Oh, um no I don't" Violet said, looking down at her shoes. Quigley's eyes brightened. "Well then would you mind going with me?" Quigley said. Violet smiled. "I would love to!" Quigley smiled too. "And I promise Carmelita won't get in the way of it." He added.
