Happy Memories (Dimitri x Reader)

This continues the story of "Lucky To Have You" and "No doubt about it."

As much as you tried to talk to Dimitri about what had happened, he wouldn't budge. He always changed the subject or inexplicably became incredibly interested in what the dining hall would be serving.

You finally decided to let it go. If he truly meant what he said he would tell you when he felt ready.

Besides you had more important things to worry about at the moment.

Like running away from Mercedes.

You followed Ingrid as you tried to sneak through the entrance hall without amassing any suspicion.

Why were you running away from the sweetest girl in all of Garreg Mach you ask?

That's simple.

Make-up.

There was a Ball tonight and both Ingrid and you had no interest in dressing up for it.

Dresses were uncomfortable to fight in, and that's all you needed to know to discard them from your wardrobe.

As both of you turned left, you ran right into Annette. Her arms were crossed and she looked very serious.

"You can't run away from this." she said

You turned to run in the opposite direction, but Mercedes was standing right there looking patient as ever.

"It's easier to just get this over with." she said calmly.

Ingrid was quicker to react than you were.

"You're right. Running away was childish of us." she said, and you felt like she was working an angle "You're just trying to help us, so we'll cooperate. But since you can't work on both of us at the same time, I suggest you focus on the future queen for now."

With those words she managed to squeeze past Mercedes and kept running.

"Ingrid! You traitor!" you yelled, but she was long gone by now.

Mercedes giggled and grabbed onto your arm in a friendly manner. "Come on it won't be that bad."

Annette, as perky as ever, grabbed on to your other arm. "Yeah! It'll be fun."

Somehow you doubted that.

So now you sat in Mercedes' room having different powders and creams plastered onto your face while Annette sifted through dresses in the corner.

"Ooh! I have the perfect one!!" she suddenly exclaimed.

You turned to see, but Mercedes gently turned your face back towards her, "You'll see it soon, for now try to sit still."

It was at least an hour until they were finished.

"Oh! You look so pretty!" exclaimed Annette.

You looked at yourself. You were wearing a simple blue gown that was elegant enough for a queen yet not too extravagant.

Upon looking at your reflection, you were glad to see that Mercedes had kept the make-up simple as you had asked.

"Dimitri is going to love you in this." Mercedes said, catching you off guard.

"W-what?"

"Oh, no need to be shy." she giggled.

Annette giggled too, "Yeah, everyone knows you two are head-over-heals for each other."

With that they left to go find Ingrid, telling you to stay in the room since it was still a long time before the ball started.

You sighed and sat on the bed. You suddenly became extremely aware of how queen-like you looked.
