My Thanks goes to Paladin Dragoon who had reviewed like all of my chapters. Also my best friend RikkuxStarr and also to Deadlyblade. I'm sorry I dint do my thanks again sooner, I kept forgetting.

Author's Note: This Chapter is about the group getting ready for the party, it's going to start in a few hours. I love this chapter honestly I think it's one of the more funnier ones I have written. Serge is really nervous, he has a few problems with a door, his voice slips up, Glenn gives him some poor advise, and Kid is about ready to bite Orlha's head off. Other than this stuff this chapter's purpose is mostly to describe Orlha and Glenn's get up. Kid's description will be in the next chapter.

Chapter 7 Chill out Serge!


It was early evening, the sun was going down. Serge had just gotten out of the shower and was digging through his closet for the uniform he was going to ware. He found it in the back. He wiped some old dust off it and changed into it. The uniform fit him well, but he wondered how it looked. He headed out of his room to the back room to take a look in the mirror. When Serge walked into the back room he found Glenn already dressed up and standing in front of it. Glenn was attempting to fix his hair, but it was a useless effort. As soon as he gelled it down it would stick back up.

Serge was impressed by Glenn's uniform. Serge's was rather plain, but Glenn's was fancy and next to Serge's it looked good. He had a silver chest plate with a strange green symbol and gold pattern. He had a big black belt with a gold buckle. He also had a gold shoulder plate on one side. On the other shoulder hung a long emerald green cape covered up about half of his body and hung down to his ankles. On his arms and hands over his black long sleeve sweater were gold and silver gauntlets with dark green gem stones carved into them. He also had on black pants and silver and black boots. Finally around Glenn's head was a long green band to keep some of his hair from falling in his face.
"Well, well, you clean up good." Serge replied as he walked up to the mirror.

"Not really. I give up!" He yelled.
"On what?" Serge asked.
"On my hair! I'm just going to gel it to the side a bit and then leave it alone!" Glenn yelled frustrated as he pushed it to the side. "There that's good enough." He sighed.

"So where is Orlha?" Serge asked.
"She's in our room, Kid's in their to." Glenn responded.
"That's where Kid is? I was wondering I haven't seen her for the last three hours." Serge said.

"Yeah she's getting ready, I don't think she wants you to see her yet." Glenn replied.

"Well, I told her to surprise me." Serge answered.
"Oh that explains it." Glenn responded.
"What?"
"Well, I already saw Kid in her dress and when I told her to show you she refused." Glenn answered.

"Oh, so you know how she looks?" Serge questioned in a tempting curios voice.

"Well yes, but-"
"Are you going to tell me?" Serge insisted.
"Best I don't ruin this for you. Sorry Serge."
"Aw, come on Glenn buddy! Pal, amigo." Serge said putting an arm around Glenn.

"Your horrible." Glenn answered as he pushed Serge away.
"I bet you already know how Orlha looks." Serge mumbled.
"Yeah so." Glenn said with a shrug, Serge sighed.
"You know what... your right, I'm just really nervous and the anxiety is getting to me."

"Hey look, I know it's scary, I mean I went through it already, but your going to have to get over it." Glenn remarked.

"Oh yeah, thanks for the advise." Serge responded sarcastically.
"Sorry, but it's true. You are the man in the relationship aren't ya?" Glenn questioned.

"I'm through talking to you." Serge said getting up to leave.
"Hey wait a second, I'll give you some good advise."
"What now?" Serge questioned rather annoyed.
"If you start to get nervous just remind yourself that it's Kid." Glenn stated. Serge glanced at Glenn puzzled and still annoyed.

"What do you mean?"
"Well, it's only Kid you will be with. You have known her for what? Five or four years now and we live with her. There's no reason to be afraid of someone who's like a best friend." Glenn explained.

"I agree, but at the same time I don't. She's more than a best friend to me." Serge responded.

"Hey Glenn! Serge!" A voice called from the other room.
"Yeah!?" Glenn called back.
"I think were ready!" Orlha's voice rang agsin. Glenn looked at Serge with a smirk.

"Remember when I told you that you were next that night I proposed to Orlha." Serge nodded with a gulp and wide eyes. "Looks like your turn has finally arrived." Glenn added.

"There ready all ready, darn! I'll be right back!" Serge yelled as he ran off. Glenn began,

"Hey where ya-"
"Just go." Serge yelled. Glenn shrugged and shook his head as he headed into the next room.

Serge ran so fast into his bedroom door that he knocked it right of the hinges. The door fell onto the ground with a shocked Serge on top of it as it slid on his wooded floor and came to a halt.

"Aww... ouch." Serge said as he got up off the door. He walked up to his dresser and opened the top most drawer. He opened it slowly and then he pulled out a small box. He opened the box carefully. In it was a long gold chain with red gem stones engraved into it and white pearls as part of the chain. In the center was a large red gem carved like a fox's head looking up. Serge closed the box and hoped that Kid would like it. Then he ran off through the door-less doorway of his bedroom.

Orlha poked her head from around the corner to look at Glenn. "Where's Serge?" She questioned.
"He said he was coming." Glenn answered. "Well get him in here!" Orlha screamed with her hands on her hips. Glenn jumped from her yell and immediately turned around and began to run when...

BAM!!

Two boys on the floor rubbing their heads.

"Ouch!" Glenn yelled. "Will ya watch it Serge!" Glenn shouted as he winced in pain. Serge looked up at him with nothing but an oblivious expression when he finally spoke,

"Sorry-," His voice slipped unusually high, like a teenager going through puberty. He cleared his throat. "Eh-hmm, Glenn." Glenn looked at Serge surprised then rose to his feet. He helped Serge up and as he did so he whispered something quietly, so that only Serge could hear.

"Serge your loosing it, you need to chill out." Serge nodded with a slight gasp and still with his wide eyes.

"What was that there?" Orlha asked. Serge and Glenn both turned to face her with innocent faces.

"What's wrong?" She questioned suspiciously.
"Oh, it's just that- Ow!" Serge began, but Glenn elbowed him and gave him a dead glare in the eyes.

"---Don't tell her your nervous---" He said to Serge lowly between closed teeth.

"Hmm?" Orlha asked.
"Nothing you look really nice Orlha." Serge said as he looked over her.

Orlha had on a blue top which crossed creating a sort of v-neck. It also was only half way long exposing her abdominal area, at which across it were two leather brown belts connecting to the top. In the middle of her chest was a slit where a white shirt was shown underneath. The sleeves were short and over her right arm the long white sleeve of the shirt hung down over her wrist. She also had on a brown leather belt around her waist. Down from there she had a long blue dress that slit and then the other part crossed over it. She also had on nice brown sandals and around her second toe was a silver ring. Over her left hand was a leather brown glove.

Orlha's golden blond hair was put up into two pony tails with two silver clips. Instead of the ponytails hanging to the sides of her head; they hung in the back almost making her hair appear like it was down. Also in the light, little shining specks glowed within her gold strands, for she had put glitter in her hair. Her eyelids and pink lips also put on the same glittering display. Her bangs still framed her face the same way as always, but much neater. Finally around Orlha's strong neck was a silver necklace in which sapphires hung down all around.

"Hey, thanks I got this for- hey... wait!" Orlha just realized something.

"ORLHA!!!" Came a voice from the other room interrupting Orlha's thought. The slurred pronunciation of Orlha's name proved it was Kid who called.

"What's a matter?!" Orlha questioned back to Kid.
"Nothin! I just want ta know if you will let me come out ALREADY!" Kid screamed aggressively in her impatient tone. Orlha ran behind the curtain and Serge and Glenn just listened as Kid complained away.

"Why can't I!!" Kid shouted.
"Well I just want you to wait a-"
"Wait! WAIT!! I've been waiting!!!" Kid screamed.
"I just want to make sure that everything is-"
"I don't CARE! I just want to go!"
"Well could you just hold on for a second!" Orlha shouted over Kid's tantrum. Then Serge began to hear Kid's stubborn foot tapping. He began to hear quiet murmuring. Then he heard Kid's voice say,

"Fine then."


I hope you enjoyed that chapter. If there were a lot of mistakes, I'm sorry I dint get much time to read over it.
