"Jake, What?" Pompel asks between laughs.
I hold the phone to my ear, looking through my suits. William went to figure out what the theme colors were, so I probably should stop looking and wait. But I really want to wear my pink and white suit, and have Poppy come in a pink dress.

"Yeah! It's another fancy rich snobby party, but we get to bring a plus one. Bossdad is bringing his sister, but because Jenna has a business trip I can't bring her," I explain, turning back and sitting on my bed. Jenna is my sister, and she's pretty quiet, so I don't talk to her much. I would like to talk more, though.

William comes back in, whispering,
"The theme is gold and black, Sir,"
I nod, getting up to grab my black button down shirt.
William turns on his heels, probably off to feed Sammy; My amazing and beautiful, fluffy, lovable, Samoyed puppy.

"It's not like you would have brought her anyway. What am I gonna wear anyway? Plus, I'll just follow you around. I don't like being around too many rich people.." He trails off.
I hum, processing what he said and trying to decide between black tie or gold tie.

"Would you mind wearing a dress?" I question, deciding on the gold tie and a golden blazer. Black shoes will even it out so whatever.

"..if it's pretty, no.." Poppy trails off.

"Then it's decided! I'll pick you up in...five minutes, Kay?" I try not to laugh, hearing Poppy stutter.

"W-Wait I didn't say-"

"I'll take you out to dinner later and we can sleep over, It'll be fun!" I smile as I hang up and start to get dressed.

William and I have been jamming to different songs on the radio for a whole now. By jamming I mean me doing weird dances in the back seat as William drives silently.
We pull up to Poppy's house and, sadly, the dance has to end as I get out the car.

Pompel already stood at the door, nervously scratching his head, "I don't know what to wear.." He mumbles, wearing a pale blue sweater with a long grey sweater over it. The sweater ended at his knees, so I doubted he was wearing pants or anything. Though, he covered his chest protectively. I thought the outfit was cute, so I don't know why he's hiding it.

"It's cool! Just hop in the car and we can buy you some snobby rich stuff," I joke, motioning back to the car.

His hazel eyes widened, "Uh...no..I should change-"

"Nah your gonna take it off anyway. Into the car!" I smile, taking his hand and pulling him along. Pompel seemed pretty nervous, but I'm sure he'll ease up once I show him the cute dress I saw for him.

It was a decently long, sleeveless dress. The gold colors ended at his waist and faded into black. The dress also looked super cute with some golden heels. It'll look super amazing.

"So...you're taking me out after this?" Pompel asks as William starts the car. "Yep! I think I should owe you for dragging you along with me," I joke.
He nods, hugging his sweater close.

I would point it out, but we're going places so it doesn't really matter I guess..But I forgot to ask him to pack clothes for the sleepover..
I guess he could barrow mine, but...who cares I guess. They'll smell like flowers, but whatever.

Pompel silently leans over me and looks out my window, eyes glued to the outside. I quietly lay my hand on his back and he gets comfortable, moving closer to me and basically sitting on my knee. I'm completely fine with this, knowing he loves to watch the sunset everyday.

The rest of the ride is in comfortable silence as me and Pompel enjoy the sunset.
