I Never Said I was Perfect

Chapter Eleven

Kylie

I wake up to my maids scurrying around my room. I groan and get up. "Good Morning, Kylie." Lucy says. "Good morning to you too, Lucy" I reply. She smiles and I go take a shower. I get out and wrap a towel around my body. I walk out of the bathroom and see Maxon laying on my bed. He sees me and a smile breaks across his face. I blush and hurry into my closet. I throw on my 5 Seconds of Summer shirt, skinny jeans, and combat boots. I sit down at my dresser and my maids rush over. They put my hair into a waterfall braid and put very little make up on me. I put in my black hoops and flop down on my bed next to Maxon. "Miss.Kylie,.we have hand made your dress for tomorrow night and your mask." Lucy says. "Thank you! May I see it?" I ask. "Yes, Miss.Kylie." Lucy says and rushes out the door. "I saw you grinning at me when I came out of the bathroom." I tell Maxon. "So" He says trying to hide his blush. "So, I know you like me." I say. He sits up and faces me. Our faces only inches apart. "Kylie, I don't like you. I love you. To Heaven and back." Maxon says. I look at him and awe. He leans in and kisses me. It quickly deepens. I hear a deep cough and we break apart. It was my father. I haven't seen him since my mother died a few days ago. He had chosen to stay on his side of the palace and that I was not to come on his side. "Kylie America!" My father bellows. I tremble with fear. "Yes, father." I say politely. "What are you doing?" He asks. "I uh. I...." Maxon interrupts me. "I'm terribly sorry, your majesty. It won't happen again." Maxon says. "It better not happen again. You understand Kylie?" My father says. "Yes, sir" I say. He nods and walks out the door. Lucy, Mary, and Sarah all rush in. Lucy unzipped the bag and there stood a beautiful dress. It was blue and had silver lining and was strapless. I rush over and hug my maids. "Thank you so much!" I exclaim. "It was out pleasure, Miss.Kylie." Lucy says. "Would you like to see the shoes?" Sarah asks. I nod. She pulls out a cushioned velvet box and hands the box to me. I open it and there lay beautiful glass slippers like Cinderella's. I set the box down and try on the shoes. They fit perfectly. I put them back in the box and Mary hands me a beautiful silver mask. "Its wonderful! I love it all. You guys do so much for me and I do so little in return. How will I ever repay you?" I exclaim. "By becoming our new queen." Sarah says. "Ladies, I have to be married and there is no one who would want to marry me." I tell them. I hear Maxon chuckle. I hand the mask back to Mary and run a tackle Maxon. He starts tickling me. My phone rings and it was a text from Alexis.

I'll meet you in a minute.

"Crap! Maxon we forgot about taking Mayslee and Alexis dress shopping!" I say. "We better hurry." Maxon says. I grab my hoodie and put it on. Mary throws me my purse. I slide down the railing. Maxon runs down the stairs and takes my hand. We practically run to Starbucks. We make it there just as Alexis walks in the door. "Hey" I say. "Hey, what are we waiting on?" Alexis asks. "My friend Mayslee." I tell her. "Oh" Is all she says. Mayslee runs in the door and hugs me. "Hey Mays." I say. "Hey Kylie. Who's this?" She asks pointing at Alexis. "I could ask you the same question." Alexis says. "Alexis this is Mayslee. Mayslee this is Alexis." I say. "Its nice to meet you!" Mayslee exclaims. "You too." Alexis says. "Well, let's get going." Maxon says. "Oh Maxon. I forgot you were here." Mayslee exclaims and wraps him in a hug. I feel anger coming on and Alexis notices and grabs me by my wrist. "Mays, It would advise you not to hug Maxon." Alexis says. Mayslee gives a confused look. Alexis nods towards me. Mays nods. Lexi let's go of me and I calm myself down. "Kylie" Maxon says holding out his hand. I nod and take his hand.

Alexis

Some creepy guy in a tux comes and picks us up. Kylie calls him Martin. Just plain weird. We head to some fancy smancy store and get dresses. I pick out a black poofy strapless dress with sliver lining. I get a silver mask and silver shoes. Mayslee got a dark blue poofy strapless dress, silver mask, and white shoes. Kylie pays for everything which made me mad. I hate it when people by stuff for me. "Okay, the Masquerade is tomorrow at six o'clock sharp." Kylie tells us. We nod. Martin drops us off at our houses and I run in my house. I run upstairs and put my dress in the closet and hide everything else. Kylie said to bring a date and Kurt so happens to be my date. "Alexis!" I hear my mom call. "Ma'am?" I call back. "Please come downstairs. Kurt is here." She says. I change into my Pierce The Veil shirt and throw on my dark blue hoodie. I run downstairs and see Kurt sitting on the couch. I run and jump on the couch. Kurt jumps up startled. I laugh. "What you doing here?" I ask him. "Well, I got my tux today and I need to get a tie but I don't know what your dress looks like." He says. "Your not seeing my dress but I can tell you the color." I tell him. He pouts and says,"Okay, what color?" "Black" I say. He nods. He gets a text and quickly says. "I gotta go." I grab his wrist. "Lexi! I have to go before she gets mad." He says. "Who gets mad?" I ask. "No one.".He says. "Kurt! Who?" I yell. "Emma Jones." He says with a sigh. I look at him in awe. I get off the couch and run upstairs to my room. I hear him call my name. I lock my door and put my face down in the pillow and cry.
