"Aw Spazzy, you'se look beautiful" Said Dutchy when he saw Spaz wearing a dress that had a simple hunter green A-line satiny skirt, with a long sleeved, square necked, princess line fitted bodice that comes to a shallow "V" at the bottom, made from an off-white, burgundy and hunter green floral print fabric, embroidered with beads "You'se really look great!"
"Thankee". Spaz hugged Dutchy. "You look great in that suit too."
Sunshine came running down the stairs in her white glittery dress, it had also an A-line skirt with a long sleeved fitted bodice. "Do you'se like me dress, Bumlets?" the girl asked.
"O'coise, Sunny deah!" Bumlets kissed her. "You'se the most beautiful girl over here."
"No, no, no" Spot interrupted "look at my pretty goilys" he pointed at Empress that had a blue version of Sunshine's dress and Gaby that had an adorable pink one. "That's what I call beautiful" He Kissed Gaby in the forehead and passionately in the lips to Empress.
"Davey!" Shadow jumped into his boys arms and showed him her purple dress.
"You look splendid, spectacular" The curly boy kissed her softly. "We're gonna have fun tonight." They walked around the lobby, holding hands and kissing every now and then.
Hoops and Bookworm walked together, wearing lavender and light blue dresses respectively, the two looked like princesses as they ran to their boyfriend's arms and laughed. Then the try to dance a little, but the room was too crowded.
"Sparkie? Are ya coming down?" Race asked sweetly.
"I'm coming down Mr.Racetrack Higgins!" She got close to him and hugged him. "You'se nevah take that hat out, huh?"
"Well goily. What can I say? That's me charm... me hat!" he smiled and kissed her. She only laughed and then kissed him back.
"Wow..." Jack's jaw dropped as he saw Chocolates coming down with Turtle at her side. Just like the other girls, her dress colour looked great on her. "You'se look like royalty, baby." He kissed her lightly.
"Then you look..." Chocolates sighed. "Like the King of England!"
"Then, can ya explain me this?" Jack whispered and his girl raised an eyebrow. "Yoah dress."
"My dress is colour burgundy. It has this very big skirt: A-lined skirt. The bodice... it's also burgundy, you see. It has this short, puffy sleeves and the neck is opened from shoulder to shoulder. Both, the neck and the sleeves have this black fit and are embroidered with beads. Isn't it beautiful?"
"Nah, you're the beautiful one" he whispered as he kissed her once again.
"Guys, I really love ya. But try not to kiss that often." Cinnamon walked around with her princess red dress.
"Whaddaya mean?" all the couples asked.
"Many people might consider it rude."
"Kissing is fabulous!" Jack and Spot argued and kissed their girls again.
"Yeah, but in this ball there are gonna be some ol' ladies that will ask ya foah yoah chaperones!"
"How do ya eat that?" Race wondered.
"Silly! Ya know what I mean."
"The carriages are heah." Crutchy whispered taking Turtle's hand. "2 couples in each carriage!"
"My God! This is so exciting, right Davey?" Shadow said with excitement.
"The Social event of da year, dear!" He hugged his girl.
"Chocolates, ya belong ta me and only me tonight, ok?" Jack took the girls hand.
"If ya say so...fool."
"Call me fool again."
"Fool."
"I love it!" he kissed her cheek. "We're gonna have the greatest time evah tonight."
"Come on... let's get on a carriage with Sparks and Racey" she held Jack's hand.
"To the ball we go!" Race yelled.
Taking seriously Cinnamons advice, everybody promised to try not to kiss that often, making the whole trip to the ball a make-out session. They didn't even talk. They just kissed, hugged and cuddled. Cinnamon had to go in the same carriage than Spot and Empress; she tried to look out the window. The little ones, Les and Gaby covered each other's innocent eyes as not to see how Blink and Bookworm were kissing passionately.
Shadow and Dave were the only ones that didn't do the same that others were doing; they were still too shy. The kissed every now and then but most of all, they talked and laughed.
"Shadow?" Dave said.
"Yeah?"
"Do ya love me... do ya really love me?"
"I do love you, Dave. What are ya worried about?"
"Nah, nothing"
"So?"
"We've been dating for how long?"
"Not too long, maybe a month"
"But... we've known for a year?"
"Almost, Dave. Why?"
"Ya were always in love with me right?"
"O'coise Davey!" she hugged him.
"So... ya don't think it's too soon."
"Soon for what? Whaddaya want?" she was worried.
"To get...err...umm...I mean.... married, right?"
"Are ya proposing, David Jacobs?"
"I am, Shadow. So... whaddaya say?"
"Yes!"
"Really?" his eyes widened and hugged his girl in the carriage they were sharing.
"I've been waiting foah this since da day I met you'se!" she kissed him again, started to cry when Dave took out a simple, but beautiful ring.
"I'll get ya something nicer, ok?" he strokes her hair. "My parents love ya, and my sister likes ya too... everything will be perfect, you'll see. You'll come home with me, right?"
"Dave?" she said sadly.
"Yeah?"
"I wanna have a long engagement, ok?" She sighed. "I'm gonna miss da goils... and Choco and Spaz, I just met them!"
The carriage stopped and they knew they had arrived. A man opened the door and the engaged couple came out. They told the good news and everybody was happy for them. As everybody entered to Roosevelt's place, the looked around and couldn't believe what they saw: the fanciest ball ever with a huge dance floor, lots of food and beautiful decorations.
Ok, chap. 18 is done! I had fun doing this one... maybe tomorrow I'll write the Ball. Guys... I have this idea of the cutest couple ever: Les and Gaby!!!! Whaddaya think? I think it's great. Thanks to my reviewers....
