I laid in bed a little bit longer this morning, thinking about Tommy. As much as I didn't want to admit it, he was cute. Like.... really cute. I started to wonder if he thought I was cute, but stopped myself as I realized a crucial fact. Tommy had never seen me without my mask on. That could be something I do today, showing him my face! Although that might be moving a little fast, he is my best friend and he deserves to know what I look like.
I made my decision, and got up to get ready. I brushed my teeth and my hair, putting it in a high ponytail. I put on some makeup, then went to my closet to pick out an outfit. I figured we might see Tubbo, so I grabbed some jeans and a pale green sweater with bees on it. (this is like what she is wearing, with high top converse instead and the things are actually bees)

I armed myself with weapons, grabbed my mask, and headed downstairs. I had remembered Dream telling me about a meeting he had today, so I didn't feel the need to conceal my excitement.
That changed when I walked in on Dream sitting at the table, looking directly at me. He looked like he had been waiting for me, his hands folded together on the table. "Why do you look so happy this morning?" He asked, bluntly. I was caught off-guard, but I tried to appear as if I wasn't shaken. "It's a nice day outside? I don't know, am I not allowed to be happy or something?" I asked, trying to sound nonchalant. I walked into the kitchen, trying to grab something to eat. "If you're going to train, you seem awfully dressed up. You even put on more makeup than usual. Is there something going on that you're not telling me about?"
I froze. He couldn't see me, but if he could I would have given myself away immediately. My face went completely pale and started to shake slightly. He was onto me, and I knew he wouldn't let it go unless I proved him wrong. I didn't know how to do that, so I just decided to play it off for now.
"No? Unless you mean training. Which I have to go do right now, see you!" I grabbed a granola bar and walked out the door. I caught a slight glimpse of his face, and he didn't seem fooled. But, he let me leave, and would probably question me when I got home.
As I walked to the training area, I spotted Tommy and Tubbo there waiting for me. They weren't dressed in their usual outfits, their new outfits looked like British soldier uniforms.
"Hey guys, want to explain the outfits to me?" I asked, my question coming out as a laugh.
"Oh!" Tubbo said, "Have you not heard of L'Manburg?" I raised my eyebrow. "Le man what now?"
"Me, Tubbo, Wilbur, and a few others have started an independent nation in the SMP called L'Manburg. We fight with our words, not with armor or swords. Dream, however, isn't the biggest fan of our nation." Tommy said, rather serious. I really liked the sound of an independent nation in the SMP, it would make things more exciting. As much as I like using weapons, fighting with words sounds much more civilized.
