Ash stood on the opposite side of the door, feet implanted to the floor and a sheepish grin remained plastered to his face as he fumbled to stand upright. Hesitantly, he withdrew the hand entangled in his Raven locks, which didn't cover the evidence of his nerves as his hair reflected an unkempt mess (no doubt from a hand combing through it one to many times).

"Ahem, uh, hiya Misty." He had to restrain from visibly cringing at his own voice crack.

Meanwhile, a certain bluenette mustered a few shrieks of laughter in the background, if only at her best friends expense, as amusement glinted in the Alpha's midnight blue eyes.

"Would you please excuse me for just one second?" Misty politely mustered, and before Ash's answer could come, he was met with the slam of a door.

"Uhhh, sure no problem..." Ash murmmured at the door, shifting the weight between his feet as he attempted to listen in to try scrutinizing what could possibly be going on.

Though, a few pitches of squeals later, followed by a yelp and a muffled door slam was the only sounds Ash could decipher. Then, moments later, a disheveled Misty cracked the door open once again. A noticeable lack of Dawn anyone near the perimeter of the dorm-room's living-room was evident. Though, Ash could have sworn he heard faint knocking and scratching sounds coming from the interior of the dorm's closet and Ash didn't dare pursue the noise.

"I'm sorry about that, just had to get rid of a pest. Do you want to step inside?" Misty pleasantly invited the Omega. Charming gestures that were normally never offered to Ash, and though tempting, he politely declined.

"Uh, thanks for the offer, but um, I don't want to intrude, and I have somewhere to be and-" Ash rambled until Misty assured him it was alright.

"So, what did you stop by for?"

"Oh, uh, I just wanted to make sure you were OK. You know, after the whole cafeteria incident, which I truly apologize for. Though, that's not the only reason why I came.."

Ash could practically hear his heart beat... Was this speed normal? Swallowing thickly he continued stammering on, "I was also hoping for a um, favor?"

Misty cocked up an inquisitive eyebrow in Ash's direction. It wasn't everyday that a cute Omega came blundering to her door step looking for a favor... Wait cute? Did she just think he was cute? She wasn't wrong if course, but she just thanked Moltres that she didn't say it out loud.

"Alright, ask away." Misty replied as leisurely as she could.

"So, um, you know how Ursula is hosting a party tonight?" Ash was sweating bullets. Fortunately, the Alpha seemed to focus more on the fact that if she tilted her head to the left just a little bit, Ash could almost be slightly, kind of attractive after all. Shame the face was on an Omega though.

She was more intrigued than ever. "Yes?"

Ash couldn't believe May talked him into this.

Approximately 1 hour prior.

"And your head resembles a bush! A bush!" May's last outcry sent Ash over the edge, and before Drew could criticize the Omega on her questionable fashion choices, Ash took it upon himself to end the argument before May could whip out her pepper spray.

"Guys, that's enough!" Ash relinquished, slamming his hand against the wall, the sound rippling in the room as the shelves rattled. The arguing pair finally turned their gazes towards the frustrated teen, their argument coming to a screeching halt.

"You know what? Why don't we all do something tonight?" Ash proposed thoughtfully. Honestly, just trying to fabricate a diversion for his bickering friends.

Suddenly, a cheshire grin began to spread along May's porcelain features, though her contemplations were anything but ladylike.

"You know," May commented. "I heard from the grape vine that there's supposedly going to be a huge Alpha party being thrown at Ursula's house tonight. Whose to say that a couple of Omegas couldn't crash it?"

"May, remember when I said you were crazy? My statement still stands." Drew responded, reciprocating May's conceited smirk.

"Say all you want grasshead, but I think crashing an Alpha party would be a great way to kick start our last festival." May  earned herself a glare from Drew, but dismissed it, kicking up her feet in a more comfortable posture. Ash, to Mays dismay immediately shoved her legs off the bed, silently scolding her with a look. May rolled her eyes, sometimes she swore Ash was becoming more like Delia by the day.

"OK, OK fine. Let's to say we were to entertain one of your crazy schemes." Drew spoke, hypothetically of course.

"How do you propose we even get into the party? Waltz in through the front door?"

"Of course not, bush-head." May  snapped, Drew glowered.

"I also heard it was a bring one, get the second one free. We simply just need to be invited."

"Oh, yeah that's a real piece of cake." Ash finally piped up, rolling his eyes. The gesture unnoticed, or ignored, by May.

"Well... I know someone who has gotten quite friendly with the pack leader herself." May, not too subtlety, insinuated.

"Oh, no, no May you're insane. I literally talked to her maybe twice, and one of those times she was covered in my lunch!"

May's grin didn't even falter.

"I'm going to talk to Misty against my will, aren't I," Ash wondered aloud. Only Drew acknowledging the comment as he spoke,"yeah.... You guys can just leave me out of it"

Back in the present...

Ash was seriously dissecting his life choices right about now.

"Well, I was hoping you wouldn't mind doing a friend of mine a favor. She wanted to know if you could allow myself and her to get into that party." Ash gulped, the lump in his throat swelled as he prepared himself for the let down, though it would probably do him a favor..

Misty's face began contorting into a sly grin. Surely she could have a little fun. She didn't like Ursula all that much anyways.

"Well, Ursula did say the invite was plus one for each person... You know what? What the heck, she's loaded anyways, sure you and your friend can come. Though, you didn't hear this from me, got it?"

Ash smirked, "hear what?"

"Absolutely nothing, Omega. Maybe... I'll see you around?"

"It would be my pleasure," Ash laughed, bowing jokingly. "I shall abid you a due."

Misty giggled and shook her head, shutting the door softly behind her and letting out the breath she didn't realize she was holding. Until she realized she just giggled. She really was slowing digressing into madness.

Once Misty knew the coast was clear, she hesitantly approached her broom closet. Dawn sat expectantly, arms folded as she was perched on one of the buckets that were sprawled over the closet's floor, along with some mops, and her grin was beaming.

"So an Omega, huh?"

"Shut up," Misty sneered, pivoting 180 as she darted away from the bluenette.

Dawn remained in the broom closet, howling in laughter as she fell off the metal bucket in her hiysteria.
