One month later....

"Harm! We are gonna be late! Jeez, get ready. Fast!" Alec hurried. We are going for dinner to aunt Marilyn's house. Chris and his boyfriend Jace are coming too. It's just a kind of a farewell party to me.
Yeah, today is the last day. Tomorrow I'll be leaving for my house with Chris and Alec.

Days passed away so fast. This is the first time when I don't care that I don't have much time to live. I'm worried about leaving them the most, Alec, Chris and aunt Marilyn who did so much for me indirectly. They sent me food, clothes and medicines.
I'll miss this environment so much.

Aunt Marilyn never met me. She wants to meet me before I go. Chris and Alec had told her so much about me that's the reason she is excited for the dinner like hell. I don't understand why are the people in this town are so damn excited, about everything. Sometimes I think I'm wierd because I don't feel any excitement.

Alec wants me to get ready as fast as possible. He has brought me a gown. It belongs to aunt Marilyn.
After a long time I will be wearing something which fits me perfectly. It's surprising that her size is similar to mine.
The gown has a sweet heart neckline and a mermaid cut. It's a simple dark green gown, but it's unique lace design and it's shinning borders makes it extraordinary. It fits my body so nicely. Oh today I want to be Rose of Titanic.

I tore a piece of my white T-shirt in a thin strip for making it as a ribbon. I made a side ponytail, tying my hairs with the help of the ribbon I made.
It seems so long since I made a hairstyle with my hairs.

"Ready!" I called him inside.

He entered the house. His eyes got stuck on me. He doesn't even feel shy when his eyes examining me up and down. Actually it's not his fault, he has never seen me in something nice. I have always been in some messed up cloths and my messed up hairs around him.

"What?" I asked. It seems like the day I wore his t-shirt for the first time.

"You are...... stunning" he said. I was right, he talks like Hardin Scott sometimes.

Him being speechless makes me feel as if I'm the most beautiful girl in this world.
Which I'm not. But atleast for Alec, I'm. What else do I want?

I looked at him. His mouth was still open in surprise. I smiled at him but his expression didn't change. He was too astonished.

"Shall we?" I walked towards the exit. He held my hand and we stepped outside.
Alec wasn't wearing anything nice. I forced him a lot to wear something special but he ended up doing what he wants. He wore a simple black full sleeve t-shirt with a white jeans.

One of the best thing about being with Alec is that he can keep me a lot more safer than anyone else. He knows the location of other murderers. Tonight we are totally safe because they are busy packing for tomorrow.

I hope tonight becomes the most elegant night of my life.

We reached aunt Marilyn's house at 8pm. Good thing that I always have Alec's wrist watch.
"Knock-knock" Alec said while knocking. I was a little nervous because the last time I came here, I was....umm....never mind.
Ugh! The more I think about it, the more I get nervous.
And the worst part is that she knew I was robbing her. But she didn't stop me because she knew I was needy.

"Well hello gentlemen!" She answered the door. She hugged Alec and kissed both his cheeks. She was looking so comely in her white bias cut sleeve less gown. It had a collar neckline which I find damn attractive. I love collars.

"Ohhh! Hello miss Keats!" She hugged me gently. Not like the wild hug she gave to Alec.
I like it. The way she is respectful to me.
I never noticed that she has a British accent.

We entered the house and I saw Chris and another guy on the couch.

"Harmony! Hi! This is Jace my boyfriend" Chris pointed at the unknown guy.  Then he turned to Jace and said "Babe, this is Harmony"

"Nice meeting you Harmony" Jace smiled at me. Jace has a bold voice. Now when I say bold, it's too bold. His skin has an ash shade and his hairs are blonde. He is tall and a muscled guy.

"Hey nice meeting you too. Actually I've heard a lot about you from Chris" I sat next to Jace on the couch.
I just don't understand why am I the only one among the invited people who is well dressed. Alec, Chris and Jace are wearing casual clothes.
I guess it's a special dinner party for me, so maybe that's the reason why they wanted me to look special. And of course the organiser, Marilyn Danksworth, should be well dressed too.

We talked for atleast for half an hour. Jace and Chris are just perfect together. Their stories are fabulous. Their high school problems and all kinds of funny memories. I didn't feel bore even for a second.
Jace has a meme group on instagram and his memes are savage.
It just feels so nice to be normal again. Sitting with normal people and creating memories.

"Dinner's ready!" I heard aunt Marilyn from the kitchen.
