Chapter 4
It's the day of the stupid ball and Valia is fussing. I hate it when people fuss over me it just feels weird. That for all I know was the reason I was left her at such a young age, because my birth mom wanted a child that she would fuss over. All I know is I'm in a dress when I hate dresses and Valia is trying to do my hair up but I just want it to be its regular self. In the end we settled on just making it very wavy and it looks pretty good. Connor is waiting for me at the top of the staircase so I don't have to go down alone. The only catch to that is that Valia will have to descend alone, but she decided she is more experienced and I needed my father this time. The amount of boys here is ridiculous. I didn't even know we had this many single guys in the entire city. There's one that seems out of place, like he doesn't want to be here as much as I don't want to be. There's something about him I just can't seem to put my finger on. He's sure as heck not bad looking although I'm sure he'd look a heck of a lot better dressed casually instead of stuck dressed formally. There is one girl that you can tell is bugging him, but she won't seem to give up. I know that girl I'm sure of it, I just don't remember her name. She really oughta just give him some space, she really seems to be setting him on edge.
