Raven sighed and flopped onto her bed, it had been a long day. As if things weren't tense enough after legacy day between the Royals and the Rebels, and after the food fight in the cafeteria, Apple wouldn't even look at her. But what did she expect? Apple and the rest of them to just forgive her for possibly ruining their futures?
Now even the air in her room seemed a little heavy, she needed some fresh air. Since she had turned in early, Apple wouldn't back for another three hours, and curfew was an extra hour after that. She grabbed a jacket and ran out the door.
The sun was setting over the town of Book End, casting an enchanting orange-pink glow over the shops. Raven continued to wander down the cobble stone road, she pulled a Cerise before she left school and pulled up the hood of her dark purple jacket to hide her face.
The teen sighed, was it really a bad decision not sighing the book? She didn't disappear (thank goodness) but now everyone else was unsure about what to do about his or her own destinies. Was it really such a bad thing that they got to decide what they wanted to do with their lives instead of following plan already laid out for them?
Raven had gotten lost in her worries until something caught her eye. Looking to her right she saw a dress on display in a shop window. It was . . . lovely. It was just a normal, everyday dress. It was something you would probably see a Royal wear.
It was sleeveless dress in lilac purple with a darker purple ribbon tied around the hip area to separate the bodice from the skirt. There was white lace covering the top layer of the skirt with a matching cardigan made from the same lace. Strings of white pearls were strewn randomly across the bodice and made it look messy but elegant at the same time.
Along with dress in the window were a matching pair of lilac heels with little white lace bows on them and a pearl bracelet, necklace and headband was placed on the dress's mannequin to completed the outfit.
Raven normally wore her dark clothes because they suited her better, but this dress . . . without another thought, she walked into the store.
