Enjoy, my loverlies~

English is bold. Japanese isn't. (And there'll be some Italian or French or Latin or something going on somewhere, who knows?)

A/N: Where have all of my readers gone? -sob-

So sorry for not updating. School started again. I had a horrible first day back. I lost my earphones, and if you know me, that's like… major. & also, that dreaded English project I was talking about? Well, at least we get another day to work on it! (I don't know whether or not I'm angry considering I had to stay up in the wee hours of the morning BECAUSE PEOPLE DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO TURN IN STUFF TO ME.)

Sigh. Whatever.

Tuesday!KayCee

I was supposed to publish this yesterday, but I just felt so discouraged that I stopped writing. So, I'm in Latin class right now, and I'm writing. (yeylatin.)

I have a Latin and Choir final to worry about, luckily nothing for my core classes or Orchestra. [yeeeeeeeeee~]

But I do have musical rehearsal today. -sighs-

Wednesday!KayCee

Wao. I really suck at updating. Seriously, though. I've had almost no motivation to do anything. And I just had a really, really bad day and week. LOL. Hopefully, things will get better. Musical rehearsal for today was pretty good. Got a lot done. Also, I feel like I should be updating this weekly. Unless you guys say otherwise. (:

ThursdayMorning!KayCee

Yeah. Sorry. Computer wasn't working and I just got mad.


Kayde's POV.

"Is this really necessary?"

"Kady, come on, you look beautiful."

His words would normally make me fluster if it weren't for the fact I was wearing some dress that could rival even Cinderella's, in, well, everything.

Ballgown style, layers and layers of tulle, petticoat, sweetheart neckline, a flush of rosy pink with beading embellishing the bodice, off-the-shoulders sheer sleeves that went down to my wrists, and finally, a corset top that was tied so tightly that it didn't give me any room to breathe.

It was horrendous.

"Dino, c'mon."

"Nope! A dress fit for my principessa!" He walked up to me and kissed the tip of my nose. "I'll head out so that I can find more dresses for your debut."

I forced a smile until he was out of ear-shot.

"ANGELICA!"

"Y-yes, Miss Kayde," Angelica hurried and untied the ribbon and loosened the corset. I immediately slumped over and breathed in a normal breath.

"Did you get one?"

"Yes. I got one after the third dress Boss asked you to try on." She sweatdropped. "Boss isn't really good with fashion."
I rolled my eyes. "Tell me about it."

She handed me a garment bag and smiled nervously. "I really hope you like it."

"Everything and anything you've chosen for me will look good." I grinned widely. "Thanks for coming, Angelica."

She blushed. "No p-problem, Miss Kayde."

I pulled the curtain behind me and pulled the dress out of the bag. It was a scarlet red, silk dress, with a sweetheart neckline that dipped just a little bit lower than the ballgown. A simple, thick, white ribbon that wrapped just under the bust contrasted the fiery color, with an intricately designed, diamond brooch that was rimmed in a black metal in the center.

I shimmied into the garment, in hopes of putting it on before Dino got back. I called Angelica into the dressing room with a hushed voice, and she pulled the curtain to the side.

She smiled softly. "You look beautiful, Miss Kayde."

"I like how you chose Christmas colors, Angelica."

"Thank you, Miss Kayde."

I sat down at the bench within the room and noticed the skirt ride up past my mid-thigh. I flinched slightly. "Uh… is this not too short…?"

"Oh, no, no, no. Of course not, Miss Kayde."

"Oh. Well… I guess if you say so… Maybe I can wear lace leggings with these or something. Uh, can you zip me up and tie the ribbon?"

"Of course."

Once the ribbon was tied into a sleek bow, Dino stormed back inside the room, two dresses in hand, and beaming.

I twitched and gulped.

They looked even more atrocious than the last one.

I looked over for Angelica for help and she merely pointed down at my dress. Dino noticed the same thing.

"E-eh? What's that?"

I looked down at my dress. "Oh this?" I swayed back and forth, letting the skirt flow ever so slightly, the silky texture smoothing over my skin. "A dress that Angelica picked out for me." I sauntered up to Dino. I placed my hands on his chest and smiled oh-so innocently. "Can I buy this one?"

"But—"

"Pleaaaase?" I jutted my bottom lip out, in hopes of winning him over. He stared down at me again, and I could feel his eyes on my bare collarbone. He sighed, but smiled.

"Yeah."

I grinned widely. "Nice doing business with you."

I went back behind the curtain and changed back into my jeans and t-shirt. Whistling happily, I skipped away from them, my new debut dress slung over my shoulders.

Thank goodness for Angelica.


Third Person POV.

"Thanks for following orders, Angelica."

The young girl smiled up at her Boss. "Everything went according to plan. She thought I chose the dress. It's a good thing that she didn't suspect anything."

"Of course she wouldn't!" Dino laughed.

"Although, I have a question, Boss."

"Yes?"

"Don't you think that her dress is a bit too short?"

Dino looked down at Angelica and grinned widely, his chocolate eyes gleaming. "Why, of course not."

Angelica twitched slightly as her Boss retreated outside.


Kayde strolled over to one of the benches outside of the men's fitting room and sat, whistling. Her eyes wandered aimlessly as did her mind. Her thoughts were broken once Dino stepped out of the changing room. She let out a low whistle.

"I thought the bride was supposed to be the vision in white." She teased.

Dino let out a deep chuckle and adjusted his scarlet red tie. He rolled his shoulders slightly and stuffed his hands into his white pants pocket. Kaydence skipped over to him and dusted away whatever invisible dirt gathered on his white suit jacket. She leaned in and pressed her nose against his chest. She breathed in his scent and his strong arms wrapped around her in a firm embrace.

"I like how you chose colors to match with me."

"I was going to wear a black suit, but I wanted to know what you thought of this."

Kayde pulled away and walked away a few feet to get a full view. She smiled. "It matches you. A knight in white. With a red tie and a black dress shirt." (A/N: Think about the Curse of the Rainbow Arc whenever Dino's wearing that suit whenever he invites Tsuna and Reborn to the hotel for dinner. And then the Varia crash. -woop-)

He grinned widely. "I'm glad you like it."

She paused. "Hey, Dino?"

"Yes?"

"Will you be in my court?"

Dino laughed. "I thought I already was."

Kayde rolled her eyes. "The debutante is supposed to ask, you loser!"

He smiled sheepishly. "Well, then, yes. I'd love to be in your court. All I have to do is say nice things about you, right? And I go at the end?"

"Yes. That, and you have learn the dance for the 18 roses. Don't worry, my mom has everything choreographed. She's been planning this probably ever since the day I was born. My friends and family will be arriving next week, including the Tenth Generation of the Vongola and my sister. Calli and I, with a couple of other friends from America, will be learning the dance with you too."

"Alright. I'll be glad to meet everyone."

She hummed. "My mom has high expectations for you and this party. So does my dad."

Dino paused. Alphonse and Clarisse Crisanté. "R-really…?"

"Mmhmm~ So, don't mess anything up…?"

"Anything…?"

"Yeah!" She chirped. "Oh, and if you do pull any wrong moves, you know what my family's capable of."

She skipped away, snickering.

Flashes of mangled bodies, bloodied walls, and the torture that was etched upon ever one of the faces of the enemies whom the Crisanté clan saw fit to destroy ran through Dino's mind.

He gulped.


A/N: Gonna stop there because I just wanna upload it.

By the way, Dino's men are there. Like… it's not just Kayde and Angelica and Dino. That's why Dino isn't trippin' errywhere.

This chapter sucks. I know. But I've been feeling so freaking discouraged and so hurt that I just want to upload this and get it over with.

If you guys review, I'm sure I'll feel better.

My views have decreased. And that makes me really sad.

-waaah-
