"Come on, you have to get a dress, unnie," Tzuyu dragged an unwilling Jeongyeon into a store with racks upon racks of dresses, from long to short.

"I have one," Jeongyeon insisted.

"You have one dress that you have worn to every occasion since seventh grade. Come on, this is the victory dance. You'll probably even be nominated for princess," Chaeyoung pointed out.

Jeongyeon groaned. "If you guys nominated me, I swear..."

"We nominated Nayeon unnie," Dahyun butted in, and Tzuyu and Chaeyoung both hit her on the arm. "What?! I didn't think that was supposed to be a secret!"

Sana rolled her eyes. "The point is, you're a star now. You need to look like one, and that old red dress you have isn't going to cut it."

"Speaking of Nayeon, why didn't you guys invite her to come?" Jeongyeon asked curiously. Now that they were all friends, it seemed strange that their outing didn't include Jeongyeon's now-girlfriend. "She told me she needed a dress, too."

Chaeyoung laughed. "We already went shopping with her. You said you didn't want to go."

"Oh, right..." Jeongyeon remembered the event.

"Enough talking," Sana threw a couple of dresses at Jeongyeon. "Go try these on."

Jeongyeon tried on what seemed like millions of dresses. She tried long ones that swept the floor when she moved; she wore short tight ones that just barely covered her bottom region. She wore yellow, black, purple and blue dresses. There was no 'oh my gosh, that has to be the one' moment, like in the movies. The four girls mused over several options for an entire hour, until Jeongyeon grew impatient and forced them to choose one.

In the end, she chose a short gold dress with a flared out skirt and a sweetheart neckline. "It's so cute," Sana gushed as Jeongyeon made her purchase.

That night, Jeongyeon called Nayeon.

"How was your dress expedition?" Nayeon laughed after they had greeted each other.

"Did everyone know about this except me?" Jeongyeon complained. "It was fine. Boring, but I got a dress."

"What color?" Nayeon asked eagerly.

Jeongyeon rolled over on to her stomach. "What, have you caught the dress bug, too?" She laughed a little. "It's gold."

"Oooh," Nayeon breathed. "It'll look good next to my purple one."

"Who said I'm taking you?" Jeongyeon joked.

"I did."

Jeongyeon smiled to herself. "I'm tired. I'll see you in school tomorrow, alright?"

"Okay. Good bye, Jeongie."

"Okay, no PDA while we're eating," Jihyo faked disgust as she and Tzuyu sat at the table that Nayeon and Jeongyeon were sitting at. Their mouths were tangled together, as were their hands, but they quickly broke apart at the sound of Jihyo's loud voice.

"Sorry," Jeongyeon's mouth turned up sheepishly, and she could see Nayeon's cheeks turn a shade of red.

Jihyo waved her hand. "At least now I have my appetite back," she joked, biting into her apple. "Ready for the nominations?"

"If I'm nominated, I'm dropping out," Jeongyeon vowed.

"No!" Nayeon gasped, grabbing Jeongyeon's arm. "You can't, it's an honor."

Sana and Dahyun then dropped their trays  onto the table. "What's going on?" Dahyun asked.

"Jeongyeon unnie says she's going to drop out of the running if she's nominated for princess," Tzuyu informed her.
