The next day Marinette opened her eyes to hear Carapace knocking on her door, she jumped out of the bed, ran out of her room and into the bathroom. She showered as quickly as she could, took her cloths from Carapace and dressed.
Luckily, this dress allowed her to move easily, she needed it because she wanted to finish quickly so she could catch up to Carapace.
- Carapace! Thanks for the cloths...
- The girls elected your cloths...
- I know. But thanks! Do you know where Rena is?- She looked at him pleadingly, Carapace knew that she planed something but didn't know what, it worried him.
- Come with me.- Even if he was worried, he knew better then to disobey when their master ordered them to do as she asked. She followed him downstairs where a lot of monsters stood and discussing until she came, everyone froze and looked at her. She thanked Carapace his help, then made her way to Rena, the others backed letting her a way to go on, she stopped before Rena. She took a deep breath took Rena's hand in hers and said:
- Rena please, forgive me. Last night I...wasn't thinking straight. I only said that because I was angry and...........and scared. I'm afraid and it's really, really good to know that there are persons that I could count on. I'm very thankful for that.- When she looked up at Rena she was surprised to see shock all over her face but in a rather surprised way. One skeleton who was painfully familiar to her walked up to her and asked:
- Did you just......apologized?
- Yes, I did.
- Why?
- Because I said......
- I know what you said, everyone knows. What I want to know is why did you apologized.
- Because what I said hurt her.- They looked at her, the skeleton couldn't believe her words, no matter how good they sounded.
- You......Didn't want to us?- The skeleton asked in disbelief.
- Not physically not mentally nor emotionally. I never ever wanted too.- At this point Rena started to cry but this time from happiness, she jumped on Marinette and hugged her tightly while crying in her shoulders. Marinette hugged her back and noticed how she repeatedly thanked her.
The skeleton before them clapped and slowly everyone joined him, making Marinette slightly blush. What no one noticed was the big shadow standing on the stairs, looking at the scene before him, especially at the blushing bluenette.
The day went fast, most of the monsters presented them-self to Marinette to them too. Of course at beginning of the evening she was relived, finally she could spend a minute or two in her room alone. She didn't mind having so much people around her but after such a long day....she needed a break. But it was until someone popped into her room, literally popped.
- Hey!- Said said the skeleton from earlier, one of the few people who couldn't introduce to Marinette. Marinette jumped a bit, but soon calmed and waved at him.
- So, earlier I wasn't really a "gentleman". Let me start it over by introducing. I'm Sans, Sans the skeleton.- He offered his hand to the bluenette who took it quickly, but before she could say anything, a faring sound filed the air making the skeleton grin and chuckle softly. Then he took away his hand and started laughing as he showed it to the woman:
- Whoopee cushion on the hand trick, it's always funny.- He grinned. The woman next to him started shaking, for a moment he was worried until she had exposed, laughing, taking skeleton with her. When the laughing almost died down, Rena entered the room seeing the two having fun.
- It's good to know that you made some friends here.- Said Rena, when Marinette turned to her.- Now, if your ready, master invited you to have dinner with him......again.- Rena whispered the last part but Marinette heard it, she sighed.
- Would it make up to you for yesterday if I accept his "invitation"?- She asked nervously, the two monster looked at each-other and stayed this way for seconds until they exchanged a sinister smile and Sans teleported away. Rena turned to Marinette, who knew that those two planned something.
- Yes, you can make it up to me but not by accepting master's invitation.- Sans returned with something in his hand, a dress.
- It would be really kind of you to wear this dress during the dinner.- They looked at her innocently as Sans handed him the dress.
Marinette sighed, the innocent looks becoming sinister as she looked at dress. To be honest, the dress was beautiful but it was also a bit revealing, that scared her. Still she started to undress until she noticed that Sans was still standing there. The tension became awkward as Marinette stared at Sans who looked back, clearly not getting Marinette's problem until Rena started giggling.
- Don't worry. There are 2 reasons why he wouldn't even look at you "that" way.- Rena explained. Marinette began to undress again, while Sans tried to explain what Rena meant.
- She meant that I'm not into you.......Not because you you don't look good or anything....But.....
- But your not into humans. Right?- Marinette asked while she began to put on the dress.
- No! I'm just not into....
- Girls! And if that's not enough, Mr. Skelegay have a crush!~ - Rena sang. Sans began to blush a deep, deep blue while trying to protest.
During this time, Marinette finished dressing up, the pinkish-red dress looked good on her, the long skirt with multiply petals on each-other, the lace on the decolletage, no sleeves and no back. Truth to be told she kinda liked the dress, Rena really knows how to pick dresses.
Suddenly, the room went silent, Marinette turned around, facing Rena and Sans, both looking at her, amazed. Then, Sans teleported away, while Rena untied Marinette's hair and put it in a simple style. When she finished she finished Sans came back and handed Marinette a necklace, thin silver chain and a big white diamond on it.
She as taken aback by it's beauty and worn it with honor. She looked herself in the mirror, she looked perfect. She sighed and exited the room, Rena and Sans following behind her. They went downstairs, into the dining room.
