I'm sooo sorry I haven't updated in a while! I couldn't decide what I should do, have ___ in there or something else, so Here I go with the something else. I'm sorry for keeping you guys waiting!

Plain and Extraordinary

(Remember guys, Fang opened the door…)

It was freaking dark in the room! I couldn't see two inches past, literally. Funny, if you ask me. But then again he shown a lantern thingy on the wall and ushered me in, closing the door quietly. He flicked something on, and the room was ablaze (not literally) with light. I blinked, just getting over the attire Fang had in the room before. The walls were lined with a couple chairs, a sofa-like thing hanging to my left. The room itself was a deep maroon-ish, definitely not black. Which I found a lieelt funny. There was a door in the other side, more likely to a bathroom or something, but I didn't take notice in it. It was basically a bedroom, without a bed.

"We're to add a bed in here." He chuckled, literally reading my mind. "So if you ever need a place…" He trailed off, looking seemingly distractedly around the room. We stayed silent for a moment, me taking in the room and him just glancing here and there, mainly me.

Fang walked up a couple feet and stopped, somewhat in front of me. He swiftly took off the 'backpack' and unzipped it. It was simple-ish all right, as far as expensive dresses go,but I ended up laughing a bit anyways. Fang rose and eyebrow, making me laugh a teensy bit harder.

"You said it wouldn't be black." I stated as simply as I could between laughing fits. He snickered.

"I said it wouldn't be just black, Max." he replied smoothly. I composed myself and took a look at the dress.

How can I describe it bluntly… It's a mermaid-type dress…

Well, the dress itself was black, but the elbow length sleeve was laced with shining yellow and silver patterns, and the fringe if the dress was a nice bit of yellow (not that shiny, though, but it fit in nicely.) The part of the dress that went waist up (A/n: Forgot what it was called, haha) was a plain black, yes, but faded grey ribbons and/or laces were fit onto the sides, and also down the middle (with it forming a V). It was plain, simple, but somewhat really extraordinary. The part where it puffs out, I guess, was fading into a light grey.

"It reminds me of a funeral…." I said, trailing off a bit. He started to laugh a bit.

"That's what I said while I was designing it." He replied, giving me a sly smile. "But pretty on you all the same." My face turned a somewhat rosy pink. "Ha, that color's cute on you." He teased. I thought of something that'll change the topic.

"But won't people be staring at me?"

"Honey, this dress will go a looong ways for you." He said in a weird tone and accent. I think I've heard something similar before. "Anyways, others will probably be wearing these way to bright clothes that make my eyes hurt, so you're basically my only getaway then if that occurs."

"Can I-" He cut me off.

"I know what you're going to say, Max." He said, smiling a teeny weeny bit. "Yes, there's a dressing room in the other side of the room, just keep going straight. But you must hurry and when you're done, wait. I think someone's coming soon." And with that, he opened the door we entered and closed it quietly. I heard padded footsteps fading, and another door close.

Just great. I thought. Stuck in a room between a royal prince and a door.

I went through the door swiftly, wanting to try up the dress as soon as possible. But man, the dressing room was just plain. It was the same maroon, but there wasn't anything in here, minus me and the dress. I securely closed the door and got to work on fixing myself up.

(Ten minutes break)

I was out of the compacted room, finally, and saw something odd in the room. Yes, Fang was gone, but who the hell is this? A little girl? She seemed a couple years younger, lady-like, and she was just plain staring at me.

Anyone know who she is? Anyways, I'm still sorrying about the, what, one-three month wait? Dang. Well, this was kind of a boring chapter, but wait until you hear what the stranger says.
