The dress that Adam presented me with was lovely. There was no other way to put it. It was made wonderfully, simple and yet elegant. It fell to the middle of my calves and had a waist that hid any figure and was quite conservative. White heels to a of set the black dress stood below the costumed mannequin, along with a string of pearls.

"Like it?" Adam asked.

I couldn't find words to thank him. To think that he had actually done something nice! And this was outrageously nice too. I nodded my gratitude.

Adam smiled, handed me my new dress for the costume gala (it starts tomorrow and ends Saturday night), then kicked me out of the room.

I arrived at the common room and grabbed a seat with my friends.

"Hotties, behind you." Hans whispered in my ear. "Ten o'clock."

"What?"

"Saint Catherine's girls."

I turned immediately, hoping that Caroline wasn't one of them. She wasn't, but the three girls were undoubtedly beautiful and had every guy's attention. I gaped too. The Saint Catherine's uniforms were just so cute. Red plaid skirts with a white blouse, red tie and black Mary Jane's that looked great with the red knee socks. I felt a long suppressed urge bubble out of me as I thought, I want to wear a uniform like that instead of this unflattering thing.

"Earth to Ethan." Frans tapped the side of my head. "Is someone at home?"

"What?" I came back from my aww-that's-so-cute trip.

"If you don't keep your eyes in your head, they'll fall out."

"I'm not staring at them." I replied.

"Then what are you looking at?"

"The uniforms."

"Huh."

"They're so cute." I swore silently. That just slipped out. "I think they made the girls look hot." I said quickly and left as soon as possible.
