Darcy's POV

There is no way in the entire universe that I was going to talk to Loki again. I couldn't, could I? Ugh this is impossible. I am going to go insane, maybe I already was. Ugh, I'll just go talk to him. But what would I say? I cant say "Hey, I'm sorry I freaked cuz I like you and I made a total fool of myself and you didn't show any emotions at all. Like seriously, how can I like fall into his lap and he not say ANYTHING! No wonder I'm going insane.

Just then an envelope slid under my door, I hadn't even heard anyone walk up to my door. I just stood there like it was going to explode or something. Then I just decided I'd open it. I walked over picked it up and sat down on my bed. I looked down and saw my name written beautifully across the front in Loki's hand writing. I dropped it as if it had burned my hand. I just sat there starring at it for what seemed like eternity. Then just as suddenly as I had walked over to pick it up I reached down and torn it open.

Dear Darcy,

I would like to invite to my birthday ball. If you agree to attend you can talk to Jane about getting a dress. If you do not wish to attend, it's ok I don't want to go either, but since it is my ball I have to go. It would be a pleasure if you attend.

Loki

The first things I noticed was that he scribbled birthday ball in disgust. Then I noticed that he signed Loki, nothing else, what did that mean? Finally I registered that I was being invited to a ball. I wasn't even invited to Prom.

Loki's POV

I hate birthdays. I hate Birthday Balls. I hope Darcy would come. I had told Jane and Thor about my problem and made them swear they wouldn't tell anyone else. Thor, having known me for years knew this had to be serious if I was coming for help. They formulated the plan for my Birthday Bash as Jane had put it.

Darcy's POV

I rushed to Jane's room. I wanted to know when this Ball was and what I would wear. I finally got to her room, and out of breath I knocked on her door.

"Come in." she said and I opened the door. I couldn't help but gasp, because the first room of Jane's rooms had too many dresses to count.

"I wasn't expecting you for I while. We thought you would think over the invitation a bit longer." she said smiling.

"We?" I asked.

"Yes, we." said Thor as he walked out from behind a rack of dresses.

"What's going on?" I asked.

"We were just looking for the prefect dress for you."

"Ok…" the next few, or was it more, hours went by in a flash of color and dresses. I had tried on a fewnice dresses but none of them seemed right. Until I tried on an emerald green dress with no ruffles, or puffy sleeves. It was a silk dress that pooled a bit above my ankles and the back extended I bit more to trail behind me. There was a tiny bit of detail around the sleeves and hem, a layer of a light green lace fell around the skirt and had tiny diamonds that you couldn't see but when I spun it lit up and didn't remind you of a Christmas tree.

When I stepped out of the dressing room with that dress, black heeled sandals, and a golden pendent around my neck, Thor and Jane both gasped.

"You look like a completely different person!" Jane squealed, "And this is without make-up!"

"This is definitely the dress for you." said Thor.

"Um… When is the Ball?" I asked.

"Tomorrow of course!" they said together. After that things happened very quickly. I changed and When I came out Jane ushered me out of the room very quickly. I wonder why. I went back to my room and collapsed on my bed, and before I fell asleep I saw that I had been trying on dresses for the past five hours. When I woke up I realized that I had slept through most of the day. I got up groggily and heard a pounding on then door. I got up to answer and found Jane out side in a beautiful gown a sunset golden color.

I suddenly found myself wide awake, "The Ball! I totally overslept."

"Well, hurry up, you have an hour to get ready. I'll set up the make-up and you go take a quick shower.' she said, quickly putting things under control.

I went to the bathroom and took the fastest shower in my life. I dried my hair and put on my dress in record time I thought I should get an award. When I got back out Jane was tapping her foot impatiently. She sat me down and started working on my make-up, I already knew that we were going to be late. Then she started on my hair putting it in different styles until she settled on curling it. We then walked to the Bouquet Hall as fast as possible.

"Go through the main doors. I'm going to slide in through the side." she said. Then she disappeared through a door. I continued on to the main doors.

Loki's POV

I had to give a speech. I hated speeches, people always wanted you to be happy and welcoming. Well I was anything but, as I gave my speech I scanned the hall countless times. Darcy wasn't there, she didn't come. Of course she didn't come, she probably hates me. Then when I was almost done, Jane came through a side door. I wonder why she was late. She whispered something to Thor and pointed to the main doors.

I concluded my speech with "I hope you enjoy the Ball." I wouldn't, when the main doors opened and everyone turned to see who was coming. Darcy came through the doors and I thought I was going to have a heart attack. She was wearing a beautiful emerald green dress, but the big thing was that it was the exact same color of my eyes, and the color was her color.

It looked like it was made for her and only her. It also made her body glow, not like it was a reflection but as if the light was coming from within her. I felt my legs get really weak and I had to sit down, but before I did my eyes meant hers and I practically collapsed onto my chair she was so beautiful.

Darcy's POV

When I entered, Loki had just finished his speech, and looked miserable. Then I walked out of the shadows of the doorway and it looked as if he would just float out of the room, elated with joy. At that moment I realized that my dress was the exact same color of his eyes, no wonder I loved it so much. I looked directly into his eyes and as if he could sense me he looked into mine. After a second, but it felt like eternity he practically collapsed onto his chair.
