I know this took very very very long. I apologize for the long delay. Thank you for all the reviews! I thought that my story was dead. Apparently, it still has to reach its real end. Thank you! :D

I looked at my watch... quarter to six. Hmmm, Hibiki is with her already. Bet he's enjoying. I wish I was Misty right now. I don't want to put up a fight with my feelings. I'm too tired and sick of it.
I sat down on my bed. When will I go? I don't feel like I should anymore. Hush, stand! Let's go!
I walked to my door as it swung open. I raised my head up and met a pair of anxious and waiting eyes.

Dita:
I gave a small shout when Parfet barged into my room. She looked lost and in complete disarray. I tried to talk to her but she went on and on about her costume and her hair and her... ah!!! Parfet couldn't keep still! She went through my things looking for something, anything that might ease her situation. Why? What happened?
Apparently, the dress she was going to use was completely useless. It tore right in the middle when she put it on. Strange don't you think? How on earth did that happen? Didn't she try it on before? Well, Parfet said that there was no need for trying on dresses. It was already perfect as it was and she knew it was the one. What? I didn't see the point of this conversation. It was already six pm! Wasn't Duero expecting her?
Parfet's eyes scanned through my entire closet. She rummaged through all my drawers and boxes. Nothing! She couldn't find anything that could pass off as a costume. That's when I saw it. She plopped down on the floor and stared at me. Her eyes were turning red and I knew that I couldn't just leave her like this. I knew that Parfet really wanted this night to be perfect.
I looked at my friend. I saw her pain. I gave her a tight hug and at that point I felt her pain. I shared that same feeling. Somehow I wanted this night to be perfect too. It was tremendously painful to accept that i wanted this night to be mine because that is a wish that will never come true. I let go of Parfet, who looked curiously at me. Suddenly out of the blue, she yanks my arm and drags me out of my room. She kept on screaming, "I know where I can find a dress! I know where I can find it!" Her voice was overflowing with a newfound hope. I was happy for her, really. But it was hard to feel joy when I was being dragged across the corridors of Nirvana.
"Here! In this storage room! I saw something here before when we were cleaning this place up. Dita, stand guard outside while I look for the dress. I don't want Duero to find me looking like this!" Parfet said.
"Wait! Parfe.."
She was gone. My friend was somewhere in the depths of boxes and boxes of old items. I was alone again. My hair was all over the place and I knew I looked terrible. Terrible. How do I expect to have a perfect night? Parfet may have her night, but I never will. Ah, I know that it is up to me. I can change my fate but... I've lost every trace of hope left in my body.
I had been waiting for my dear friend for nearly twenty minutes. The party had started already, and I was still alone. I was tired. I let my body drop onto the floor. I sat with my back against the nearby wall. Where is Parfet?
My eyes began to droop. Parfet will wake me up when she's done, right? Right... I fell asleep. My thoughts ran noisily in my head. I was asleep but my pain was not. My head was throbbing. Thump. Thump. Thump. Thump. What was that noise? I can't really tell. I-I need to get up. Where? What?
My eyesight was blurry and I tried to move my feet. I was moving. Where? Duero? Wait, where are we going?
"Dita, wake up!"
"Duero...?"
"Where's Parfet? I can't find her anywhere!"
"Ah?"
"What if something happened to her?"
"No... she's..."
"Where? And why were you asleep by the storage room? Snap out of it Dita! Help me look, please!"
"She's just there..."
"Dita, you really must be more helpful!"
"but she's just there by the..."
"Please stop rambling! Be serious!"
I gave up. Duero was clearly going crazy over the loss of Parfet. I just continued to follow him around the ship. I was being dragged again! I was losing my balance here and there.
Where are we going? Its getting dark... Duero! Where are we?

I hope this chapter wasn't awful. It's short but it's been a while. I'm rusty!
Please review, comment, etc. Thanks :D
