Both stared at each other in disbelief. Rosabelle walked up, "J-James who are they?"

He flinched slightly, "Some people that are acquaintances of mine."

Ash raised his eyebrow.

"I see, it is nice to meet you, I am Rosabelle." Both Brock and Ash took a step backwards, "Whoa isn't that name familiar?!"

Brock pondered for a moment before he made an 'ah I see' motion, "It sounds similar to Jessibelle."

James face palmed, "Please don't remind me of her…"

Dawn cocked her head, "Who's Jessibelle?"

Ash sweat dropped, "Oh yeah you didn't know, James is actually as rich as anyone can pretty much get, and Jessibelle is his fiancé, and she's very terrifying…"

James sweat dropped, "Tw- I mean Ash please be quiet."

"So who is she?" "My new fiancé…"

"Oh yeah, wasn't she the one Sira was talking about?" .

"You know Sira?"

"W-well she's kind of a friend of mine…" She muttered, shifting her left foot side to side.

He smiled slightly before shaking his head and glared to the twerps. He whispered, "Please do not tell her that I am part of team rocket…. She's a very innocent, and would probably never forgive me if she found I was a thief."

Ash raised an eyebrow, "What will you do?"

James pondered, "I'll convince Jessie and Meowth to leave you alone for a week, and trust me that will be the longest I'll probably be able to do."

Ash nodded.

Lily snickered on the chair, "Innocent…" She muttered to herself, getting another death glare from Rosabelle.

"Oh look, it's Lily!" Lily looked over to them, "Hey!" She smiled when Rosabelle prompted her.

"Where is Sira, I thought she would be here?"

Rosabelle interrupted, "She's busy… she told me she might not be here."

James sighed with relief.

Michael finally spoke, "Ah yes I finally remember you three, I'm guessing you are here for the ball?"

The three of them nodded, "Ah good, good, well then we will need to prepare dresses and suits. Francis!"

Francis came over to him, "Yes sir?"

"Please fit these three, as they will probably need proper wear." He led them out of the ballroom.

That night, Sira stretched in her room. Lily ate a bar of chocolate. "So James is afraid of you finding out his secret?"

Sira grinned evilly, "Cute isn't it!" She cackled.

Lily sighed, "I don't know why but I suddenly feel very sorry for him…"

Sira picked up her dress and hung it back up, "Don't worry about him, worry about yourself alright." She looked at her hand, and winced slightly when she touched the top part of her hand.

"Are you alright?"

Nodding, she smiled, "Yeah…"

Someone Knocked on the door, "Lady Rosabelle, you are requested to go to Michaels office, please hurry there."

Grabbing her mask, She opened her door, "I'm coming too Sira."

Sira held out a hand, "If Michael wanted you, he would've asked for you, but if I'm named Rosabelle, it most likely means I am needed there when James is around." She placed the mask on, "No matter what, please stay into the room until I get back or send a maid to give you a message, alright?"

Lily nodded hesitantly.

"Good kid," She patted Lily's head before leaving. Heading down the maze of halls, she finally found the door labeled "Michaels Office" Knocking she entered. James and Michael were sitting on chairs when she entered.

"I-Is there something you needed?" Michael Motioned for her to sit. Following orders, she sat next to James.

"You two have gotten along for three days now... and I know this sounds very quick, but Jameson, your parents have said that you two must sleep together tonight."

Both of their jaws dropped, "Are you serious?!…. I mean three days is…"

Michael nodded, "Well, I have no say in this, I'm just hosting the ball, your parents are the ones that are commanding the whole engagement." He coughed, "I personally think it is too fast as well, but your parents ordered this so it must be done… they said they believe it will strengthen your bond between each other."

Both of their jaws remained dropped, "Yeah… but.. he/she, and I…." They stuttered in unison.

He shrugged, "Like I said, I have no say in this, and they say from now on if you two are to be here or over in another manor you must sleep together as well…. Now it is getting late, you best be off." He chuckled.

They both stood up and left the room. "What do you think we should do, I know that if I don't do this… then my parents…" He thought of His other fiancé.

Grabbing his arm, she muttered, "If something scares you then we can sleep together…. But just because we sleep together does not mean we have to sleep in the same bed right…" he nodded, "But still, we've barely known each other…"

She rubbed her chin, "…. Just a second…"

Heading back in the office, she came back out a minute later. "W-We don't have to sleep together after all, but we'll be expected to the time we meet again."

He stared at her in disbelief, "What did you say to him?"

"J-Just that we really weren't ready, and so he talked it over with your parents…"

James smiled, and hugged her, "Thank you, I don't want to rush into things… because…."

She chuckled, "Don't worry about it… we should get some sleep… after all, tomorrow is the ball." He nodded, and released his hug.

"Goodnight Rosabelle."

"G'night" They both parted off.

Heading back inside of her room, she spotted Lily already sleeping on the bed. Lying down onto the floor, she fell asleep in minutes.
