Anyways, enough of this blabber! Here we go!

Chapter 16

Shuichi's P.O.V

"Your Highness, Mr. Yuki! You both have to do this right!"

How did things become like this? Oh right. Yuki got an invitation to a party that's in a few days, and it said to bring me along. Of course, it is a party with tiny snacks for the guests, wine to drink, and dancing. And because I am a mermaid, I am not good at dancing. Yuki also said it had been three years since he had danced like this. So Sakano being the genius of both land and sea is teaching us how to dance. It's not going so well though. Yuki and I keep stepping on each others feet, tripping, start doing another dance, fall into the pool when for some reason we aren't anywhere near it, and any other possible disaster between two people dancing.

Sakano sighed. "How hard is it to do the waltz? It's easy!"

"For you, maybe!" I explain "I mean, you're not the one who has to wear heels!"

"Ladies are supposed to dress in long formal dresses and high heels. Especially princesses!"

"What's that have to do with me?"

"You are a princess!"

"A male princess!"

"They think you're a woman!"

"But they don't know I'm a princess!"

"It doesn't matter! Either way, you still have to wear the outfit."

Sigh! I can never win against Sakano! Oh, well. He knows what best. He knows about everything. So I should do what he says. We continued to practice until we heard Tatsuha come in. Yuki looked angry; muttering something about how he never knocks and come in like he lives here. I decided to greet Tatsuha.

"Hey, Tatsuha! What's up?"

"Shuichi! Just the guy pretending to be a girl I wanted to see! Guess what, you know that dress that you had me make for you for your performance? Mr. Sakuma loved it. He gave me the job as the costume designer!"

Yay! "I'm so happy for you! Your dream came true!"

"And it's all thanks to you!"

"Me? How?"

"It's because you wanted my costume instead of the others."

"Well, that's because..."

"I know. Because they were too revealing! But still! My dream came true because of you. So I made you something."

He made me something? "Tatsuha, you don't have to..."

"But I want to! It's a gift from me!" He handed me a present in nicely colored paper. Well, I can't let this gift do to waste, so I was about to open it until Tatsuha stopped me. "Not yet! This is for the party my dad is throwing." For the party? Did he make me something to wear? Well, I was going to ask about it anyways. "Also, because of my graditude, anytime you need help in anything and I mean anything, let me know."

Yuki hit him in the head. "Don't get any ideas!" he said.

"I tried. Well, see ya bro! See ya Shuichi! See ya guy with glasses!"

"THAT'S SAKANO!" yelled Sakano. But Tatsuha didn't listen. Instead he left. So we continued on practicing until Tatsuha came back. Yuki looked like he wanted to murder him. Tatsuha said he came back because he forgot that Yuki and I were to go to the mansion at the day of the party before it starts. And then he left; having Yuki and I practice again.

The day of the party came really fast. We left for the mansion and got ready. Yuki's father suggested that we came in our regular cloths and change when we got there. I went to one of the change rooms in the girls' room and opened the dress. Oh my God. It's so beautiful. Tatsuha went all out for this one. I put it on and it fit perfectly. I came out and looked ay the mirror. This looked like a dress an actual princess would wear. The dress had big straps that rested under my shoulders. The skirt part covered my legs. And it was blue; ocean blue. There was a silver ribbon that went around my waist and a diamond in the middle of my chest.

"When Tatsuha said he made a dress, I didn't think it would look like that."

I turned around to see Mrs. Mika starding as the doorway. She was in a nice long black dress with a red ribbon around her waist and no straps on her shoulders. She had ruby earings and a ruby necklace for jewelry. Her hair was tied up into a bun with a ruby elastic. I went back to getting myself ready like putting makeup on and my accessories. I put on diamond earrings and a diamond necklace. Making my hair nice enough for the party was a problem. I was ok putting clips in but having to curl my hair and stuff like that I don't know how to. I heard Mrs. Mika's giggles at my confusion on how to use the curler. She took it from me. "Here. Let me help."

"Thanks." Mrs. Mika is really nice. And she did a good job on curling my hair. She brushed and curled it really nice. As she did so ,we were having a 'girl talk'. We were mostly talking about Yuki.

"Eiri is a really nice guy, but he's such the dreamer." said Mrs. Mika "I'm glad he finally found a bride instead of gawking at the sea all his life."

"Yes, he is nice." I said "And I don't see a problem with having dreams. Everyone has dreams!"

"True, but let me tell you something. Girl to girl. Don't take it to offense but before he met you, six years ago he kept talking about a beautiful mermaid that saved him from drowning and kissed his wounds away. Ha ha, he kept saying that when he would see her again, he would have her become his bride. It's silly!"

Wow, Yuki really wanted to have me as his bride? After what happened six years ago? Oh, Yuki, my sweet angel human. I love you too! I've always wanted this to happen too. I wanted to become your bride and stay in your embrace forever.

"He's really wonderful."

"What was that, Sango?"

I snapped out of my thoughts. Did I say something out loud? "Nothing." I assure Mrs. Mika. When she finished curling my hair and tying some of it back with a silver ribbon like the one around my waist but smaller, I was about to leave ready for the party.

"Wait, Sango."

I turn back to Mrs. Mika. She pulls out a small wrapped box. "This is from Tohma and myself. Something to complete your appearance." I take it and open it. Oh my! Inside the box was a small diamond tiara. It was so beautiful. Mrs. Mika took it out of the box and gently placed it on my head.

"There. Now you look like a princess."

I did look like a princess. Of course I am a princess but still. I was so happy, I hugged her. "Thank you, Mrs. Mika!" I replied.

"Please Sango. Call me Mika. We are going to be sister-in-laws soon." she said. I nodded.

"Thank you, Mika." And I walked out; ready for the party.
