Hi everyone here is the second chapter! Hope you all enjoy this chapter! I don't own anything

Warner's POV

I can't believe she said yes! I came full prepared to tell her that she must accompany me and outline all the reasons why she should be their but I was floored with how easy it was to convince her to come with me. The real reason I wanted her to be with me was not only to show her off to everyone nor finally showing everyone that I do have a private life and can have a beautiful girl next to me but I wanted us just to have a magical night. Call me sappy I don't care what anyone thinks I love her.

I quickly leave her to train and I try to finish my mountain of work today so I can have the whole tomorrow free.

After the whole bathroom incident which I played in my head around a thousand times I try to get some sleep which only amounts to about 5 hours. When I exit my office I see Juliette still sleeping looking so serene and stress free. Suddenly there's a knock on the door and it fly's open to reveal Delalieu pushing a breakfast cart filled with delicious smelling food. He quickly leaves after I dismiss him with a curt nod. I gently wake Juliette up.

"Wake up Love, breakfast is here and I've got a lot to tell you about what's going to happen today."

She slowly opens her eyes revealing the most beautiful blue eyes that are specked with hints of green. She looks so adorable with sleep clearly marring her features.

"I didn't realize I slept so late " she says while trying to stifle yawn. So Adorable.

"No worries nothing important happened while you were sleeping. When you are ready breakfast is waiting and then I would like to go over todays agenda."

She nods and props herself so listen to her schedule.

"Since the ball is at six o'clock sharp you will have to train with Kenji for about three hours then at three thirty you will come back and get ready. I selected a few dresses you could wear but decided you should choose which one you like the best. A maid will be in here upon your arrival to help you get ready. I will collect you at precisely five fifty leaving us ten minutes to get there " I realize I must be babbling like an idiot so I look away before she can see my blush. Oh god what has this girl turned me into?

"Ok that sounds pretty easy," she say in a small voice and I feel how overwhelmed she is with everything going on.

I try to reassure her, "It's not a big deal Love, and you're going to be perfect."

With that we eat our breakfast in quiet, each of us having a million things on our minds. I excuse myself to start on the mountain of work I have to do. How did I get so behind on everything? And then I start thinking about Juliette and our moments together. I don't think I'll ever deserve her but hopefully one day she could give us a shot. I look up at the clock a realize two hours passed finally understanding how I became so behind on work.

I decide to stretch my legs and get some lunch becoming increasingly more nervous about tonight. I want everything to be perfect for her and us. I know when all the other commanders see I brought someone they'll probably have a stroke since I am always such a loner at these events. After a full day of trying to work and then becoming distracted by my nerves about tonight or just thinking about Juliette I see it's finally time to get ready.

I go to my office that I use when I can't use the one in my room for various reasons and take a shower taking my time making sure everything is perfect. I then gently comb my hair and dry off. Next I button up my crisp white shirt and slide on my black dress pants. Then comes my bow tie along with my black dress coat. My black socks and shiny shoes are last. I take a quick look in the mirror and am pleased with the results.

I check the time and see that I have to collect Juliette if I want to be there on time. If only I can get my legs to work. I take the elevator to my room, knock twice and call out, "It's me love."

The door slowly opens to reveal the most beautiful sight I have ever seen. Their she stands, her hair cascading down her back in waves, eyes lined with black with a hint o blue eye shadow which make her eyes pop and her lips are a deep red with a hint of pink. My eyes travel down to her dress and I am pleased to see she picked out the dress that has a sweetheart neckline with a fitted bodice and flares out at the bottom. All along the dress are hint of sparkles that just add to her appeal. Lastly I notice her sky-high black high heels. She is truly a vision and I know all eyes will be on the perfection on my arm.

I got too caught up in her beauty that I forgot to say anything and suddenly feel her disappointment and unease. " You look gorgeous tonight Love" I tell her and that word isn't even close to the perfection that she is.

She meets my eyes very slowly and says, "Thank you I had help from the maid you sent. You look very dashing tonight as well."

My face feels like it's splitting in two from the smile I have. I don't receive compliments ever and a compliment coming from Juliette makes me ridiculously happy. I offer her my arm, which she latches onto right away. We both head to the elevator with only the sound of her heels making noise. I notice the nervousness she's radiating and ask her if she's ok.

She bites her lip and says, "I'm just really nervous! I mean is it even ok that I'm going? Won't someone recognize me? You know I probably should back out."

My panic spikes because she is going with me one way or another. I need her with me. So I take her face in my hands and insist, "Love, calm down know body will recognize you or even suspect that you're a threat. You'll be with me all night so don't worry I would never let anything happen to you." And that is the god's honest truth.

She visibly relaxes and we continue our way to the training area were everyone is staying. It is not my first choice to walk through were everyone especially Kent is staying but since we wasted so much time going through there is a shortcut. When the elevator doors ping open all eyes land on us. I see Kent's mouth pop open and I have to use so much self-control not to start laughing in the idiot's face. I pull Juliette closer and together we step off the elevator.
