 "What?" I said out loud.

Alik looked at Peter confused.

"She has been drinking." Peter said explaining.

I smacked my hand against my forehead, so now I was taken by a drunken person?

I wonder what would be next.

"Alice?" Alik said as he looked at me.

"What?" I said with a small groan, how long with this weird humiliation last?

"Why aren't you eager for this?" Alik asked surprised my reaction to all of this.

"Yes, I am." I said back.

"You are? It doesn't seem like it." Peter commented.

"This is extremely confusing." I admitted with a small voice.

"We just want to take you out for a mission Alice, there isn't much to it." Peter said as he looked at me as if I were a little child that didn't understand anything.

"Exactly, that is my point Pete! I'm the one who is always trying to convince you to break the rules and sneak out of the Academy; it's never the other way around." I said, this was a first for them.

Alik looked at me and shook his head in amusement.

"Alice, are you coming or not?" Alik asked as he held up the car keys.

I looked at the clothes and gave a small smile; here I was complaining just making a big deal about this when at the end we all wanted the same thing.

"I'm in." I said before I turned around and started to walk back to the Academy.

"If you're coming along why are you going back to the Academy?" Peter said stopping me.

I turned around and looked at him.

"I'm going to change my clothes." I said as I held the spare change of clothes, they had just handed me.

It was reasonable so why did they have that puzzled look in their faces?

"You can't enter the Academy again, if anyone sees you they'll make you go back into the ballroom." Alik told me and he was right about that.

I gave a small scoff.

"Then where am I supposed to change into this?" I asked him as I held out the clothes.

Alik gave me a look that was accompanied by a smirk, an evil one.

"I'm not doing it." I said immediately as I glared at him.

"Are you done Alice?" Peter asked.

I gave a small grunt as I fell back and hit my head with the window.

Peter gave a chuckle as I complained about the pain.

"Alice, what exactly are you doing back there?" Peter asked in an amused tone.

"It's not as easy as it looks to change in the back part of the car, especially when this one is in constant movement." I said struggling to take out the ruffles of my dress that had gotten stuck in one of my high heels.

"Alice, do you want me to help you take off your clothes?" Alik said; I could hear the smirk in his voice.

I rolled my eyes.

"Both of you keep your eyes on the road at all times, I mean it." I said as I continue to change.

I got myself into light blue shorts and a beige tank top but to my luck I got to switch my uncomfortable high heels for some nice black converse, I placed the dress and heels in a corner of the car before I got to the front seat between Alik and Peter.
