Chapter 3: Medieval Drama

Adelita's POV

I woke up to a knock on our door. I got up and opened it. Outside was a bellhop with a cart with five boxes on it.

"Delivery for Miss Adelita Way," he said not meeting my eyes.

"That's me," I mumbled, still half asleep. We unloaded the boxes and he turned to leave.

"Wait!" I told him, "Here," I handed him twenty bucks.

"Thank you, Miss," he said leaving.

I turned to where we put the boxes and saw they were each labeled with one of our names. I found mine and opened it. Inside, I found tissue paper with a note on top.

Just thought this might help you fit in better today. Plus it just seemed like something you'd wear.

Hope you like it,

Nathan

I moved the tissue paper and the note out side and pulled out a ruby red and gold medieval style dress, a necklace made from rubies that match the dress, and gold slippers.

"Where did you get that? It's wonderful!" Leigh shouted obviously awake.

"Nathan got it for me. I think you have one too," I pointed to the boxes.

"Yay!" she squealed and ran over to the boxes.

"What's going on?" a very groggy Nicole said, rubbing her eyes. Lena and Dahlia were slowly waking up too. I guess Leigh woke them up.

"We got a delivery," I said still pointing to the boxes. They all got up and rushed to the pile, found their corresponding box and opened it.

Leigh pulled a sapphire blue dress with a vine pattern on it, it was a similar design to mine, a necklace with a sapphire cross, and silver slippers. Lena pulled out a pale green and light yellow dress that had a simple design, a necklace with an emerald, and pale yellow slipper. Nicole had a deep purple dress with a lighter purple fabric down the middle and a black design on the lighter purple, a necklace with a charm of three amethysts in a row, and deep purple slippers. Dahlia had a forest green dress with a paler green in the middle, its design was like mine. She also had a necklace that had a black cross with onyx stones in the four points.

"OMG! I LOVE IT!" Lena, Leigh, Nicole, and Dahlia screamed at the same time.

"Ummm, Adelita?" Lena questioned

"Yes?" I answered.

"Not to be rude or anything but what are these for?"

"Oh. Nathan asked me last night if we would go to the medieval fair with them and I told him we would. Is that ok?" I asked, cautiously.

"Of course that's Ok!" Dahlia exclaimed.

"Why wouldn't it be?" Lena asked, holding her dress up to her front.

"I don't know, because I agreed to it without asking you first."

"Well I'm happy you did," Leigh said.

"How about we get ready," Nicole said looking at her phone, I just got a text saying that they should be here at noon."

"OK, let's get all medivealed up!" I said, already starting to strip down.

By eleven thirty we all had our dresses on and they all fit us perfectly. I had my dark hair curled and pinned up so a few curls spilled over the bun. Lena had her strawberry-blond hair twisted on top her head. Leigh had her short hair curled and down. Dahlia had her reddish-brownish hair straightened and hung over her back. And Nicole had her long brown hair in a braid sown her back.

"Well, don't you girls look like you stepped right out of soirée," my mom smiled, leaning against the door." Now who's ready for pictures?" She goes to retrieve the camera.

We all groan but smile obediently as she points the camera at us and had us move into various poses.

By the time she was done taking all her pictures, the boys would be arriving at any minute. And when they did, they were all dressed to match us, Nathan in a red tunic and golden trousers with gold boots, Max in a dark blue tunic and black trousers and boots, Jay had on a pale yellow tunic with light green trousers and brown boots, Siva had on a royal purple tunic and black trousers and boots, and Tom had on a dark green tunic and brown trousers and boots. And they all looked amazing!

"Well, don't you look just fantastic?" Nathan says, sweeping me into his embrace.

"Not as fantastic as you," I whispered in his ear, "I love you in red."

He chuckled and pulled away, taking my hand. "So is everyone ready?" he announced in his lovely English accent.

Everyone nodded and they escorted us out to the limo. We all got weird looks on the way out but we didn't care 'because we were all having so much fun.

We got funny looks when we arrived too, since we pulled up in a limo and were dressed like performers. We just laughed at their faces and decided to split up and meet back here, at the entry gate in to hours.

Leigh's POV

Max always knew the way to make me laugh; it isn't hard, but still. At the moment he was poking me in the side, making me squirm. We were both full fledged laughing when my phone when my phone went off in my purse. It was the set ring tone I had set for Addi. I answered and sobbing on the other end.

"Addi, what's wrong?" I said into the phone.

"Just meet me at the gate, we're going. I'll explain later. Please." She cried from the other line. I've never heard her like this.

"Of course. We will be there in five minutes. Is Nathan going to meet us there too?"

"I don't know. And I don't care." She yelled

"Ok, be careful" I said. Then I turned to Max. "We gotta go, Adelita isn't dong to well.

He nodded and we headed toward the front gate.

Adelita's POV

I waited for the other girls at the front gate, trying to control my tears. I didn't know where Nathan had gone, but I hope he didn't follow me. I hope he would have enough common sense not to do that.

Leigh was the first to arrive. She let go of Max's hand, came over to me, and wrapped her arms around me, making soothing noises trying to calm me down. I soon felt three set of arms around me, and my tears were renewed again.

"I think we should go," Lena said to the rest of the group. I saw them all nod in agreement through my tears.

"I'll go fetch Nathan. I think I know where he is. Go ahead and get her in the car," Jay said heading in the direction we had just took.

The girls helped me to the car and we all piled into the first row of seats and let the guys fill in the back.

We were waiting for five minutes when Jay finally came through the crowd dragging Nathan behind him. He roughly pushed him the far back, the furthest away from me.

When we got up to our hotel room, Leigh helped me out of my dress, Lena got out a pair o my pj shorts and a tank top and laid them out on the bed, Nicole was ordering food, and Dahlia was keeping my mom at bay, while just sat there with tears streaming down my face, not caring anymore.

Once I was changed, fed, and able to talk without breaking into tears, I got bombarded with questions about what happened.

"Listen. We were having a good time and I left to the bathroom. When I got back I found him, not where I left him, but kissing another girl from the fair! So, I walked over pulled him away, slapped him across the face, and then ran and called all you," I finished with a sigh.

"I'm so sorry, Adelita," Nicole said patting my arm.

"I just want to call it a night," I said, "And I'm not talking to him again, you guys asked me to give him a chance and I did, and he blew it!"

"I think calling it a night sounds good, right?" Dahlia asked. They all nodded.

We all went to bed and I fell asleep with a new set of tears streaming down my face.

Nathan POV

As soon as we got to our Malibu house, I got nailed with questions about what I did to make her so upset, why I did it, yada, yada, yada.

I told them the truth and that I didn't know why I did it. They told me I better find a way to make it up to her. I told them I would, if she wanted to see me again. I'm not even sure if I want to see her again.

After a few more minutes of talking I went up to my room and collapsed on my bed, having had enough of her this night. But, of course, she had to haunt my dreams.
