Authors note: Hello again! I'm very pleased so many of you are enjoying my story so far, but I'd like to point out my need to keep it relaxed and funny.

Lyla held the dress plan with excitement.

"Are you ready Katie dear? This is going to be an all-nighter I must say! She picked such a detailed design and…"

Katie scratched her head and went closer to Lyla, carrying the sewing kit she had with her.

"Mind telling me the plan once again? Just to clarify everything"

"Oh alright. First off, we search for the dress plan of Jill, secure her of ever waking up, and get our tools ready. After that, we start working on her dress. When it's done, we lay it on her chair and write a card saying:

--------------

For Jill,

Took you long enough to get started, so I ended up doing it for you. Don't act like this is such a big deal. In the end, it shows how incredibly lazy you are.

-Jamie

-------------

…And that's the plan" Lyla concluded, gathering a few bundles of cloth from her black bag.

"I simply can't believe you sound so much like him! How did you get to write something so accurate?"

"I told you not to doubt me, my dear. If it's about the men here in this village, I would know him inside-out!"

"…Inside… Out?"

"Enough chit-chat! We've got to start working on poor dear's dress! Katie sweetie, hand me a pair of scissors. Here, you can look at the design while I forge for her accessories.

Katie nodded, and did as she was told. After Lyla received a pair of scissors from Katie, she handed her the dress plan and then started working on the dress.

Katie checked to see if Jill was awake, and then directed her attention towards the design.

"Wow… I never noticed Jill's talent for art! This is a lovely dress design I must say"

"You haven't noticed? It's a cut out from the fairy-tale book, Beauty and the Beast. It seems like she planned on making her dress look like Belle's only… She wanted the color's white and pink to go together instead of yellow."

"Ick… I wouldn't wear that color combination, even if my life depended on it"

"That is why we're here Katie dear. I plan to go by the book. That is, make the dress all yellow"

Katie raised her eyebrow in confusion, as she glanced at the supplies of fabric Jill had.

"Uhm, I don't SEE any yellow here… What do you plan to do? Dip the finished product in a vat of cheese or something?"

"Oh don't be silly my dear! You have such an imaginative mind. I'm going to finish the dress and dip it in a vat of butter"

Katie's eye suddenly started to twitch, as an image of Jill in a lardy dress abruptly popped in her brain.

"…Seriously?"

"Hehehe! Of course not sweetie! I'm just joking… You know how I am"

"Yes, sadly… I do know how you are" Katie sighed, taping the design on the wall for a better view.

"My black bag contains an endless supply of yellow fabric. I ordered a few rolls on ebay the other day, but I actually finished my dress without the help of the extra rolls!"

"You didn't tell me you had a computer…"

"Enough of that dear Katie! We hardly have an ample amount of time to finish such a lovely dress design! Hurry, get a needle and some yellow thread and start making the upper part"

"Alright… But, aren't you worried? Since we're both making this, doesn't it decrease our chances of winning?"

"I don't really plan on winning my dear; and you shouldn't as well. You see, now that I've learned of Jamie's feelings towards our dear Jill, my only prize is for them to be together! I am never satisfied with just a trophy."

"Well, you have a point there. There'll always be next year for us, but only one year for both of them to get to know each other. Well… before the other guys step in that is"

"My point exactly! And I wouldn't want my darling Louis to get mixed up in that little blunder now, do we?"

"I can say the same for Joe, but… How sure are we that this'll work? I mean, Jamie's pretty good at finding things out."

"And that's where we step in. Before our dear Jill gets to thank him, we'll remind her of how helping is against the rules. That way, Jill has no choice but to be affectionate to him without really pointing it out in the open. Get the picture sweetie?"

"I guess I can. Wow! We've been talking for about 15 minutes now. I should get started!"

"You must Katie dear! Time, 10:15 pm"

"Roger that. Doing the torso, as commanded"

"Our mission starts in, 3… 2… 1. Initiate: JillJamie"

-------------------------------------------------------

So Lyla and Katie started sewing her dress. It started out as a big mess, but after 4 hours, the two separate parts they sewed looked pretty decent; if not, gorgeous.

"I must say… for dear Jill's sewing experience, planning this dress would result in a disastrous outcome." Lyla said, rubbing her blood-shot eyes as she held the lower half of the dress in her arms.

"I'm done with the -yawn- torso… It took me long enough but I'm finally finished… All we have to do now, is add a yellow rose in the middle, sew the whole thing on your lower half, and add a few more yards of fabric on both sides"

"You make it sounds so simple my dear! But I'm not yet finished… Why don't you go ahead and rest for the night. I'll finish up here"

"Are you sure about that Lyla? It's a lot of work for one person, let alone a sleepy one"

"Don't worry about me my dear. This is the third time I've said this, never doubt THE Lyla"

Katie yawned once again, and then placed the upper portion she made on the chair. She checked if Jill was awake, and then nodded at Lyla, indicating that all things were clear.

"Thanks Lyla. Don't worry about Jill telling Jamie. I'll handle that. She always comes to the café every morning for pancakes and juice anyway"

"Thank you Katie dear, I'll be counting on you!"

"I hope it ends up looking good. See ya tomorrow"

And with that, Katie left Jill's home with drooping, sleepy eyes. The black thief marks on her face were all smudged up, and her hair was a complete mess.

Lyla was left all alone in Jill's bedroom. Nevertheless the young lady quickly sewed this and that, and with a record time of 10 minutes Lyla was completely finished with the lower portion.

"I'm not sure how this'll end up, but Jill would have to willingly marry him at this rate. The dress seems so beautiful"

Lyla stood up and went towards the chair with Katie's upper half. She got it and started sewing them firmly together.

She did the few remaining stitches, until finally, a dress was made.

"Dear Jill would have a rough time getting into this, but… I'll help her out -yawn- I simply must have my beauty sleep. People would get suspicious if I acted sleepy later on."

After placing the dress neatly on Jill's couch, Lyla looked took out a nice gift card from her pocket, (courtesy of her Hearty Lyla store) and wrote on it with a fragrant, sparkly, purple pen. (Also from the store, only $4.99, plus taxes)

"For -yawn- Jill… Took you long -yawn- enough to get started…" She continued, writing the letter as neatly as she can, while fighting her urge to fall asleep on the spot.

She shook her head in determination, and finally ended the greeting card.

"What was his name again? James? Jarred? Oh right… Jamie"

She wrote his name in the end, and then tied it on the top portion of her dress.

"Oh my! I forgot to write this…"

Lyla, seemingly drunk but really just sleepy, wrote down:

"You're gonna look sexy in this, trust me"

"Hehehe! Perfect, I can't wait to see Jill's reaction!"

Lyla nodded in satisfaction, and then removed the ear-muffs from Jill's ears.

"You don't know how lucky you are sweetie. You have so many people that love you a great deal" She whispered, cleaning up the sewing materials and tools off the floor.

She then, opened the window to let the ink on the card dry up.

Ending her little mission, Lyla quickly, but quietly left the premises of Jill's house, and then made her way into her shop.

After around 3 minutes…

A squirrel went inside Jill's house, scurrying towards a large jar filled with cookies. But after a few minutes of foraging, its eyes were directed towards the lovely dress, seemingly glowing amidst the bright moonlight. Its big, black eyes widened, as it made its way towards the dress.

The squirrel went on top of it, and then smelled the fabric. The smell reminded him of corn. (why? I have no idea) and then the squirrel started munching away. He managed to make two, large holes in the torso, where exactly I cannot say; until he found out it tasted like stale bread. He spat the icky yellow fabric out, and then left Jill's house, aching in indigestion.

------------------------

It was 6 a.m. in the morning, and Jill slowly got up from her lengthy slumber.

"-yawn- Morning porky and aka… WHAO!"

She suddenly noticed a big, yellow, thing on her chair, until she realized it was a dress.

"Holy cow… What a lovely dress! And it looks just like belle's! Who could've made such a…"

…Until Jill noticed a card on the center. She read it and her face started to blush a piercing red color, as of a strawberry.

"J-Jamie? I didn't know… He could sew…" (It rhymes! Dance wit me!)

She looked at the card, then at the dress, then at the card again.

"I don't understand. Jamie would, I mean… would he?"

She placed the card on the table beside the couch, and stared at the beautiful, yellow gown.

She managed to ignore the two large holes, and picked it up gently, placing it over her body.

She hopped in bliss and flattery, thinking of how Jamie meant so much to her now.

"I should try it on… After all, it IS my dress now. Hehehe"

So Jill decided to wear it. She dragged her long mirror from the closet, and then undressed herself, her heart fluttering as she did.

"I can't wait to see how I look…"

She then, unzipped the dress, and wore it.

Kinda out of breath, she flattened a few nooks and crannies, and straightened herself.

"Will turn around in 3… 2… 1"

Jill quickly spun around, gazing on the reflection she felt so eager to see.

…And with the reflection her eyes withheld, her fluttering heart quickly fell, plunging into a thousand bite-sized pieces...

In a state of shock, she observed how two large holes made her chest visible, emphasized it in fact…

(Chest, meaning- the two "pin points" the two "mountains" the two "breast feeding implements" must I add more examples to clarify the obvious?)

Her face glowed of a bright red hue, and then her whole head started to steam of anger.

"You're gonna look sexy in this he says…" She thought, as she read the last comment written on the card.

"That… Little… Jamie… I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS!" She screamed, waking Porkchop and Akamaru up in the process.
