"Julia! Julia! For god sakes!" Rodney moved so she was standing infront of her. "Helloooo…" she said, moving a hand infront of her face. Julia blinked a few times. "What? Sorry…" she said. Rodney sighed. "Come on, you have an engagement ball to attend to. You are getting married in two days! Lavender Eyes and Ahamo are here now, and so are about a thousand other people waiting for us to walk down the stairs…" Rodney said, pulling her arm.

Julia stood up, and smoothed the black halter dress over her athletic curves. "Sorry…" she said. "You alright? You've been acting so weird. Especially since you and Cain haven't spoken for about three weeks…" Rodney said, with a hard stare.

Julia sighed. She hadn't realized it had been three weeks. Three weeks since their last conversations, other than the casual 'hello' or 'princess' as greetings when they passed by in the hallways. Three weeks since their last embrace. It was a dangerous thought, but she couldn't help but wonder if Cain's words and feelings had changed in the few weeks they had been apart.

I still love you…

Julia looked up at her sister. "You're right….let's go…" she said, walking out of the room. Rodney followed her sisters suddenly quickening pace. Rodney raised an eyebrow. She was going to find out the reason for her strange behavior.

Wyatt Cain greeted his son as he walked in with princess DG and her family. "How you been, son?" he asked. Jeb shrugged. "DG and I are pretty serious now…" he said, blushing slightly. Cain returned the smile. "Oh?" he asked. "Yes, I was thinking about…proposing…" Jeb whispered. Cain smiled, even though any thoughts of engagement were painful for him to think about.

There was a wave of silence, and Cain and Jeb turned to see the King and Queen from the Abrah kingdom walking down the steps. Once they reached the bottom, Rodney walked down the steps with Glitch. Cain smiled. He was happy for his best friend. The love between Rodney and Glitch was clear. Cain admired their love. He never saw Glitch smile so much until he and Rodney got together.

Then the King took his place on the bottom step again. "Now, I would like to announce the royal engagement of Princess Julia and Prince Paxton…" he said. There was a roar of applause as the pair walked down the steps. Cain looked down at the ground. If he looked at her, he might not be able to control himself. "Hey dad, is it just me or does Julia's smile look totally fake?" Jeb asked.

"I….I guess…." Cain said, looking at the floor. "Um, dad…she's….up there…" Jeb said, pointing towards her. Cain lifted his gaze from the floor and looked towards the stairs. He saw Julia joining her sister at the bottom of the stairs. Her hair was half up and half down, her angles were neatly across her forehead. She was wearing a black halter top that showed some cleavage. That's when he noticed her smile. Jeb was right, she was faking it.

"Aren't you going to go talk to her?" DG asked, from her spot next to Jeb. Cain looked at the ground again. "No…" he said, walking to go talk to Ahamo.

Rodney had gotten several offers from different men to dance, but she refused almost all of them. The only man her dancing was reserved for was Glitch. Rodney couldn't help but notice that her sister would run over to the drink table after almost every dance. Rodney chose to ignore it, and then she realized that was the wrong idea. During one of her dances with Glitch, a hand reached out and grabbed her shoulder.

Rodney turned around, aggravated. "I'm not going to dance with….oh…Paxton…" Rodney said, with a sigh of relief. "Hello, soon to be sister of mine…" Paxton said, with a smile. Rodney nodded in acknowledgement. "I was wondering if you've seen my fiancé anywhere…." Paxton trailed. Rodney widened her eyes slightly.

"Oh…powder room, maybe?" she asked. Paxton sighed. "Well, I can't check there so…" he said, rolling his eyes.

Rodney sighed. "Be right back…be back, Glitch…" she said, kissing Glitch's cheek. Rodney looked around and saw Cain talking to Ahamo. She walked over to him. "Cain," she said. Cain turned to face her. "Hi," he said, with a small smile. "Have you seen my sister?" Rodney asked. Cain's smile faded, and he looked away. "No, I haven't…" he said. Rodney raised her eyebrows.

"Look, I don't know what's going on between the two of you…because it's really weird…but she's been missing…" Rodney said. Cain turned back to look at her. "Missing? Maybe she is mingling…" Cain suggested. Rodney folded her arms. "Are you serious?" she asked. "Yea…" Cain replied. Rodney bit her lip in frustration. "Let's make this simple…you will help me find her…" Rodney said, growling slightly.

Cain stared at her for a second, before setting down his cup. "Fine…I'll go this way…" he said, walking in one direction. Rodney sighed. She watched Glitch approach her. "You know what I don't get? It's a fancy event and he still wears his tin man uniform and that hat…" he said. Rodney turned around and gave him an amused smile as a reply. "Come on…help me look…" she said, pulling her after him.
