When my dad called and asked me for help planning this big gala dinner, I didn't expect that I was going to be doing ALL of the work. Between planning the menu, doing the seating arrangements, and trying to find a band that could play live, I have to admit that I actually did a really good job at planning this entire event. Unfortunately, I had been so busy that I didn't even have a chance to find myself a dress or a date, but thankfully my dad sent over someone that had a ton of formal dress that I could choose from; and as far as a date goes...Kane offered to accompany me and of course...I agreed.

Blue and I were getting our hair, nails, and toes done, getting ready for tonight's festivities, but I couldn't help but to feel like something bad was going to happen tonight. I'm not sure what it was, but whatever it was...it was nagging the fuck out of me.

"Frost said that he wants me to dye my hair back blue." She said, making me look over at her.

"I agree with him. It's weird calling you Blue, when your hair is blonde." I said, laughing a little. When Blue announced that she wanted

"That's the same thing he said! You two been talking bout me?" She asked, cutting her eyes at me. I laugh and shook my head.

"Girl no, but I mean it does make since. Your nickname is Blue, which was the name given due to your crazy blue hair, but now you're blonde and we're still calling you...Blue."

"Okay, okay...I see your point. I'll dye it back tomorrow, but until then...I'm gonna enjoy my last night being blonde!"

"These are not the centerpieces I ordered, and...what the hell is that?" I questioned, staring at a big block of ice.

"That's supposed to be the ice sculpture you ordered, but apparently they haven't gotten around to sculpting it." Alfred said, standing next to me.

"Are you serious right now?"

"Oh no, you're starting to get that death twitch in your eye." Blue said, stepping forward. "Excuse me, can you get this out of here? And let them know that we won't be paying for this!" Thank God she stepped in and handled that situation, because I was moments away from spazzing out!

"Madam Alex, Madam Blue...why don't you both go get ready for tonight, and I'll handle the rest of the setup." Alfred suggested.

"Are you sure? We planned on getting dressed here, so I don't mind making sure everything is perfect before I go get dressed." I assured him.

"I'm more than sure, Alex. You seem a bit stress and might I recommend a hot, relaxing bath to ease your mind. I even brought those bath beads you like so much." Alfred is the G.O.A.T. I swear he is.

"That sounds perfect. Thanks Alfred, but if you need me then don't hesitate to come get me." He nodded as I headed upstairs, accidentally bumping into some random woman.
