On a cold winter day, the girls went out to walk around town. "It's cold,"Michelle stuttered, regretting the decision of leaving her home. 

     "But the sun is out and it's such a lovely day,"Tatiana skipped, while passing stores.

     "I'm with Michelle, I don't understand why you made us come out, it's freezing," Kylie responded rubbed her arms to create warmth upon her.

      "Don't you remember guys?! We have a ball to go to in a couple of weeks, and girls will be dying to get their dresses done. We have to be there first before congestion builds up," Tatiana answered and smiled as she walked into the tailors shop. 

      Kylie and Michelle looked at each sharing the exact same thought and shrugged and followed Anna.

        "Ah, my 3 favorite girls, what can I do for you today," the tailor said. "Hi Maurice, We came to roder three new dresses prior to the Winter's ball," Tatiana said with excitement.

         "Oh I see, so something exquisite, but suitable for the soldiers I'm guessing," He winked.

       " I could care less about suitors for courting, women deserve more independence than we get," Michelle  stated. All of them nodded with agreement.

           "I agree with you Michelle but I think I know what styles will match all of you and of course I already know your guys sizes by heart, but I need colors,"Maurice smiled.

             " I'm thinking champagne pink for mine," Tatiana suggested. "Make mine pastel blue," Michelle said.

              " I'll take a nice suitable yellow Maurice," Kylie Stated. Maurice nodded and wrote a note for him and the girls. The dresses would be ready in 2 weeks. 

The Guys' POV

"Alex, slow down," John yelled out, trying to catch up with him. Lafayette and Hercules not far behind them. 

"John, life is short there is no time to slow down," Hamilton yelled out clearly out of breath and stopped waiting for the guys to catch up.

"What happened to slowing down," John said sarcastically while shaking his head.

" Yeah, Yeah whatever." Alex muttered. 

" Look Alex," Lafayette pointed at a British man standing on a high pedestal protesting the King's words.

"Pff, another loyalist, I got this," Alex assured cracking his knuckles and walking towards the loyalist.

   Lafayette, John, and Hercules all looked at each other, knowing how this was going to play out, and followed the Right Hand Man.

    The Girls' POV

     Tatiana, Michelle, and Kylie have finished up their shopping for the Winter's Ball yet to come. They walked through the street as the sun was setting.

          "Don't modulate the Key then not debate with me! Why should a tiny island across the sea regulate the price of tea?" a soldier protested to a loyalist.

" He's kinda cute," Kylie muttered but kept walking. Michelle and Tatiana looked over at the crowd and two men arguing about the war. They walked to Kylie's home, where her and her lived.

  " Hey Ria," Anna hugged Maria. 

" Hey Tati," Maria hugged back. Michelle took a piece of bread and shoved it into her mouth.

" How was that date with the Reynolds guy?," Michelle asked with her mouth full of bread. 

" It went great, he's so nice and kind, he's such a gentleman," Maria said as her heart fluttered. 

" I don't know Maria, you may be my older sister but there's something about that guy I don't like," Kylie stated and shivered in disgust. Maria rolled her and walked away to her room.

  " It's getting late out my parents are asleep by now and you guys can just stay in the usual guest rooms you sleep in, I'll you in the morning, love you both goodnight," Kylie rushed to her bed, leaving Michelle and Tatiana to go to their resting chambers for the night.
