"He looks so forced having that conversation with her" Cynthia said to Mallory. She was referring to Dimitri who was hanging out with one of their classmates the girl he said he'd be taking to ball as his date.
Mallory looked up. Dimitri turned to look at Mallory as Monica spoke to him. Mallory noticed and waved with a smile. He realized Mallory didn't care wether he went out with other girls.
It had been a week since they had chosen their dresses for the ball and now they were only a day away from it. "Do you think I should have my dress tightened even more?" Bellami asked them.
"We haven't even seen your dress" Mallory answered. "You didn't ask them to fix it?" Cynthia asked.
"I know Mal because it's a surprise and of course I did but I think i can handle being tightened a little more" Bellami said.
"I'm sure it's tight enough Bell" Mallory smiled. "I really want to look good I'm trying to impress someone" Bellami blushed.
"Who?" Cynthia asked.
"It doesn't matter who. You shouldn't impress anyone but yourself" Mallory said to Bellami. "That's true but who is this person? Do we know him?" Cynthia was curious to find out. "I don't think so but I'll show you guys who at the ball" Bellami smiled.
"What are you wearing?" Cynthia asked Mallory. "An Elie Saab gown, I love it it's like a darkgreen embellished dress and the back is open and it has sleeves" Mallory nodded.
"You're doing sleeves?" Bellami raised her brow. "Yeah they're nicely detailed so it looks really nice" Mallory said. "Who are you wearing?" Bellami asked Cynthia.
"Zuhair Murad. It's a red dress well more like a wine color but it's really pretty at least for my preference" Cynthia said.
"I'm sure we'll all look our best tomorrow" Bellami said. "Like we do everyday" Mallory added.

Mallory and Cynthia made their way towards the hall to put stuff away in their locker leaving Bellami alone which was fine to her because she was going to the office to turn in some papers. Bellami walked up the steps and just to her luck came across Ezekiel who had just returned from the parking lot.
Ezekiel slightly turned and smiled at Bellami as he was walking by. "Hey" Bellami stopped him. Ezekiel stopped walking and turned to look at her.
"Sorry, hey. I wanted to invite you to this ball my parents and my friends parents do every year for charity. Everybody here attends with their family or whoever they want to invite and since your new I just wanted to let you know" Bellami smiled.
"Oh thanks. Liam actually invited me, it's tomorrow right?" Ezekiel asked her. "Yeah, well I'm glad he did if you can accompany us that'd be great" Bellami nodded.
"I'll be there" Ezekiel smiled. "Great, see you there" Bellami said as she began walking away. Ezekiel nodded and continued making his way too.

"You really had to do this last minute?" Dimitri looked at Scott as they stepped into the shop to pick up Scott's tuxedo.
"I didn't have time before" Scott said.
Dimitri took a seat and looked at his phone as Scott was being assisted. He heard Scott speaking with someone else and turned to look at Scott with Liam, Devin, and Ezekiel.
Dimitri didn't like Ezekiel from the first day that he saw him but he didn't really like anyone who wasn't in his group of friends. He didn't hate but he disliked Liam and he was cool with Devin because of his father's business with his parents. Unlike Dimitri Scott got along with everyone.
