I was now trying on the last blue gown of the many that Emma brought for me to try. I looked at my reflection in the mirror and from all the dresses I tried on, this was the second one I loved how it looked like on me, now I believe I am on the same page as Emma since we both have two dresses and we will have to pick one that will be most favourable.
*Ok now I will try mine on so you help me decide on which one I should wear* she said to me, while grabbing a gown to get changed.
*do you need my help?*
*ohhh no don worry, I am able to reach by my self, thanks for the offer though*
*ok no problem* I am not the type of person that talks to much, since I barely had anybody to talk to, now having Emma is weird, being treated as an equal is also weird, imagine how I feel about the ball, I mean, she actually organised a ball for me, ME an insignificant servant having a ball on her honour, you must think that I have low self esteem, but imagine living 18 years and every single day being whipped at least once for missing a dirty spot or just because I breathed the same air that Clara did.
*What do you think* I heard Emma say, bringing me out of my thoughts. She twirled in the most beautiful red dress, the corset hugged her torso nicely and the back had black laces, the thick straps of the dress were to the side making her look glamorous.
*I love the way it makes you look* she twirled once more and headed to the mirror.
*I will put the other one on* and with that she left to get changed once more. I was left with my horrible thoughts that I wished I had a journal I could write them on this time Emma did not take as long and she came back with the other red dress on, this one was nice but the other one made her look way better than this one did.
*I think the other one made you look better* I said with honesty, don’t get me wrong this one was really nice, it had long sleeves that were tight from the shoulder to the elbow then it became loose, this one did not had a corset however it did hug her body.
*Yeh I agree with you, I think that now we will change you to the other gown so we can decide between the two* I grabbed the other gown to put it on, then stepped out so Emma could do the laces at the back of the dress. The difference between the two gowns were that one was long sleeved and light blue while the one I am wearing now is strapless and dark blue.
She stepped back so she could see how it looked on me once again, I headed to the mirror to see my reflection *I don’t know* I said while I turned and twisted.
*tell me, would you like to show more skin or show less*
*well, I don’t know if you will get offended if I answer that*
*go ahead I wont mind*
*you sure*
*yes, go on*
*well I like how this dress looks like but considering that I am a human and showing to much might just temp any vampire friends that you invited and well I don’t want to get bitten*
*I know what you mean, and no I am not offended if you are wondering, so if you don’t feel comfortable with this one then just wear the other one since it looked really nice on you*
I nodded and I motioned her so she could untie the dress and I could have my lungs back. I got changed into one of my mother’s dresses well I guess they are mine now but still.
*so are you hungry?* hungry well I guess I am, I lost track of time it must be really late, how long did we take on changing and putting on those gowns?.
*I guess I am*
*ok then lets go food hunting* she said while grabbing my hand and pulling me towards the way to the kitchen.
*how late is it?* I asked seeming that I was really hungry now.
*well, I think that the sun is about to set*
*wow, we really spent long with those gowns*
She giggled *I guess we did, but at least we have that over with*
One thing I could not understand was why she was being so nice, if she barely knew who I was, no one has ever been nice to me in the years I have been living there was only one person that was nice and that was Peter, the gardener at the palace.
*you sure think a lot* I heard someone say from behind me
*hello brother*
*so you found the proper outfit?*
*Yes I found one for Essy as well*
*really...* he said while turning to face me.
*yes is a blue one*
*well I will look forward to it* he said with a smirk
I glared at him and I placed my hand as if I was holding something you better wipe off that smirk off you face I thought to myself. I did it since Emma was in the front and I was walking at the back she could not notice what I was doing but Adam did, he could read my thoughts and he knew what I could do.
*you won’t do it* he thought to himself
*not in front of Emma I wont, don’t worry, plus I need to practise* I thought
*put your hand down*
*hey Essy, tomorrow I won’t be able to spend time with you since I am going to be busy*
I put my hand down quickly *Ummm its ok I think I will find something to do*
