Chapter 14: Prom Fun.
(The Next Day (Maxville Mall))
(A/N: I'll put links to the dresses at the end of the chapter.)
"Ok, my mom said that she'd watch the kids all day, she loves them," Ace stated, she was holding Warrens hand tightly.
"Sounds good to me," Lily replied as she looked at Garth, they were holding hands too.
"Ok… so where do you want to go dress shopping?" Ace asked as she looked at Lily.
"How about Hot Topic?" Lily replied as she looked at Ace.
"You read my mind Chicka," Ace stated as she looked at Warren, he however was looking at the ground. "And they boys can go to The Men's Warehouse, and then after we'll take you for ice cream or something." She wanted Warren to not be there for that dress, she'd show him but not with him there.
"Okay, you girls have fun," Warren replied before he kissed her forehead.
"We will, and maybe if you're good I'll show you my dress," Ace stated as she winked at him before she and Lily headed off to Hot Topic. "Hopefully we can find something."
"At least we don't have to worry about getting something to fit over our baby bumps now," Lily replied as she looked at Ace.
"True statement," Ace muttered as they walked into Hot Topic and began to look around. "What colors were you thinking about wearing?"
"I'm thinking blue and black, they are Garth's colors after all," Lily replied happily as she looked through some of the racks.
"Very nice, I'm thinking red and black, but I don't really know, I may do other colors," Ace stated as she looked at some of the dress options. They continued to look through the dresses, pulling some out but shoving them back in when they find that they aren't what they wanted after looking for them, or they weren't what they expected.
"Found one!" Lily exclaimed as she pulled one off the rack for Ace to see. It was a lighter blue strapless dress with sparkles and a gem detail under the bust and at the waist. There were little glimmers of sparkle all over the skirt. (Lily's Dress: : wp-content/uploads/2013/05/cheap_blue_ball_gown_pr om_dresses_under_ )
"Very, very, pretty," Ace replied as she looked at it. She pushed through a few other dresses and found a beautiful red and black dress that was extremely puffy. "Found it!" The dress was a shiny red material on top that went to lay half way down the skirt, which was layer upon layer of black lace and netting. She held it up so that Lily could see it. She noticed that there was silver detail on the bodice and skirt portion and little gems placed all throughout the lace.

"Very nice," Lily stated as she and Ace found their dresses in their sizes and went to go pay for them.
"I think that the boys will love the dresses," Ace stated as they carried their dresses out of the store in black garment bags. "I just dread the work out that I'm going to be putting myself through to get back into shape to fit in that dress." They walked toward The Men's Warehouse. "Let's go find those boys."
"Like I'm not going to need a routine to get myself back into shape," Lily replied as they continued walking.
"You know my workouts though, and you're welcome to join me as soon as you get the ok from Specs," Ace stated as they reached the store and began looking for their guys.
"Good point," Lily mentioned as they found their guys.
"We also have shoes to get but that can wait," Ace stated as she looked around for their boyfriends. "But that can wait, and I found them." They walked up to their boyfriends and hugged them tightly with their free arms.
"Did you find your tux Garth?" Lily asked as she looked at him, he was looking slightly confused.
"Almost, I'm just trying to decide between a vest and a cummerbund," Garth replied as he held up one of each, they were both matching Lily's dress.
"I like the vest," Lily stated with a smile as she pointed to the vest.
"The vest it is," Garth stated as he smiled at Lily.
"How about you Warren, do you have yours yet?" Ace asked as she looked at him, with a smile.
"Yeah I have mine babe," Warren replied as he held up a garment bag.
"Awww… I don't get to see it?" Ace asked with a pouty look. She was looking at Warren hoping that it would change his mind. "But…"
"Don't worry Ace, you'll see it when we get home," Warren replied as he kissed her forehead. He winked at Ace and smiled.
"Deal and you'll see mine, now is there anything else we need to get?" Ace asked as they walked toward the front.
"I need to pick up Saiyuri's bassinet," Lily replied as they walked up to pay for Garth's tux.
"YAY! Baby stuff, I have to pick up some stuff for Aden too," Ace stated as they paid for Garth's tux, he got the garment bag, and they walked to the baby store. Upon arrival to the baby store Lily headed straight for the bassinets and looked for the pale sea foam and sky blue blended bassinet that she had had her eye on the week before. Ace grabbed one that would attach to the side her and Warren's bed, she had been told by his mother that she was to live with them from now on so that Warren could provide. "Well at least my mom and dad kept all my baby clothes, we'll just have to find them. Lily care to help me find a few things for Aden to wear?"
"Not a problem," Lily replied as the two went shopping for their respective kids.
"Thanks a bunch Lily-bells," Ace stated as she looked through the clothes and picked out a few black onesies along with a few red ones, she put them in the little basket that she had, Warren was holding the bassinet box.
"Oh look at this one," Lily said, holding a blue onesie that said Daddy's Little Princess on it, it had a picture of a little tiara on it.
"Get it, it will look so cute on Saiyuri," Ace replied as she looked through the clothes and found one that said Mommies Little Hot Head, the words were in flames and the shirt was black. "I found this one."
"Oh Aden will look adorable in that," Lily said as they took everything up to the front and paid for it.
"I hope so," Ace replied as they finished paying for their things. "Let's get the boys out of here."
"So Garth, did you find anything you liked?" Lily asked as she looked at Garth.
"I found a shirt for Saiyuri so I bought it," Garth replied as he pulled out the shirt out, it was green and blue with little flowers. "I think it's really cute."
"That's adorable! I also found a onesie for her I think you'll love," Lily stated as she handed him the Daddy's Little Princess.
"I do like it, she is my little princess after all," Garth replied as they walked toward the ice cream parlor that was in the mall. Lily chuckled and kissed Garths cheek.
"Warren did you find anything that you liked?" Ace asked as she looked at Warren.
"Yeah I did," Warren replied as he took out a onesie that was black and had flames on it.
That is so adorable," Ace stated as they walked into the ice cream parlor and sat down, the waiter came over and looked at them. "Warren I love it."
"Here are some menu's I'll be back in a few minutes to take your order," The waiter stated as he handed the group their menus.
"Thank you," Lily replied as she took the menu with a polite smile on her face.
"So what should we get? Oh and Lily would you want to do a double wedding?" Ace asked as they all looked at their menus.
"I like it," Lily replied as they continued looking. "Hell we've done everything else together why not have a double wedding?" She was smiling at Ace, she then turned to Garth.
"Okay so when would you want to do this shin-dig?" Ace asked as the waiter came back over, they put the menus down. "I'll have a banana split with chocolate and vanilla, whipped cream, nuts and chocolate sauce and cherries." The waiter was trying to write it all down, Ace always loved to make it hard on waiters.
"I'll have an ice cream sunday, strawberry ice cream, hot fudge, whipped cream, cherries," Warren stated, he was going to take pity on this poor waiter seeing as Ace wouldn't.
"I'll have a root beer float with whipped cream and cherries," Lily stated as she looked at the waiter, they had their menus stacked neatly.
"I'll have a sunday chocolate ice cream, whipped cream, pineapple, cherries, butterscotch sauce and nuts," Garth sated as he handed the waiter the menus.
"I'll have that right out to you," The waiter stated as he grabbed the menus and took their paper to the back.
"I think that we should have the wedding in the summer break," Lily replied as soon as the waiter was gone.
"I like that idea Lily, now do you boys have any objections?" Ace asked as she looked at them then put her head on Warren's shoulder.
"Nope no problems here," Warren replied as he held her.
"Whatever makes you girls happy," Garth replied sweetly as he wrapped an arm around her.
"That's the spirit," Ace stated as she put her hand on Warren's knee. "Now I don't know about you Lily, but I never pictured myself wearing a white dress."
"I'm thinking something that is a combination of mine and Garths theme colors," Lily replied as she looked at Ace.
"I was thinking red and black for mine and Warren's colors, they are our mutual colors after all," Ace stated as she watched the waiter come over with a trey full of their frozen treats. He placed them in front of them. "We'll have to crack this one out."
"You do realize we're going to have our mothers wanting to help, too," Lily replied as she took a bit of her ice cream.
"Yeah… this is going to be fun…" Ace stated as she dug into her treat.
"My mom might want to help as well," Warren muttered sadly as he ate. Lily smiled sadly as she thought about the one person that she would have loved to be there.
"Lily are you okay?" Ace asked as she looked at Lily.
"Huh? Oh yeah… I'm fine," She replied as she subtly wiped her eyes.
"Lily I know you, you're thinking about Bane again, I'll have to look into some stuff but I'll try my best," Ace stated as she looked at Lily, Ace knew something that Lily didn't but she wasn't allowed to say anything yet. Lily nodded. "Hey Garth, why don't you cheer her up?" She had kept her hand on Warrens knee the entire time. "Warren do you think you'll be able to set this bassinet up?"
"I'm sure that I can if I read the directions," Warren replied as he looked at his ice cream.
"How about we head home after this?" Ace asked as she looked at Lily. Lily nodded in agreement.
"WAITER!" Garth exclaimed as he flagged down the waiter. "Could we get the check and some containers?" The waiter nodded and left, only to come back minutes later.
(A while later (At Garth's, where Lily was now living.))
"I'm going to go give Saiyuri her bath," Lily stated as she gathered clothes for her to change her daughter into. "Could you set up the bassinet while I bathe her?" She was hoping he would say yes so that she wouldn't have to fight with it.
"Yeah no problem, I'll have it up before you finish with her bath," Garth replied as he cut the box open and looked at the contents as he took them out of said box.
"Come on Saiyuri, we're gonna get you cleaned up and momma bought you a new outfit to wear to bed," Lily said to her daughter as they walked to the bathroom and Lily ran the bath. Saiyuri was giggling and splashing around in the water. "How's the bassinet coming along?" She came in with a now clean Saiyuri who was wearing a blue onesie and a black skirt.
"Umm… the directions are in every language but English," Garth replied as he rubbed the back of his head.
"That would be because you're holding them upside down and backwards silly," Lily stated as she took the directions and handed them back to him the proper way.
"Oh… I'll have it put together real quick," Garth said as he read the directions and quickly put the bassinet together. "Here we go." Lily shook her head with a smile before gently placing Saiyuri in the bassinet. "I've never set one of these up before." He hugged Lily from the back.
(With Ace and Warren (At Warren's house, they now live in the basement))
"Ace could I hold my new grandson?" Mrs. Peace asked as soon as they walked through the door, Ace rolled her eyes, and shook her head. "Why not Ace?" Ace was feeling the protectiveness that her own parents had felt about her as a baby. She was holding Aden, and Warren was holding everything else, they headed downstairs to put all their purchases away.
"Not right now, I have to feed him and bathe him, get him ready for bed and then get him to bed," Ace replied hotly, according to her mother Aden had been a terror, he was catching things on fire and even though Saiyuri was putting them out he caught his grandpa on fire. "He's been catching things on fire all day and he didn't get a nap, it's eight o'clock at night and I want to get him to bed." She shut the door in Mrs. Peace's face accidentally before she walked down stairs with Warren.
"Go give him his bath, I'll get the bassinet set up and put everything away," Warren stated as he set everything but the bassinet box on the bed, he put the garment bags in the closet, he put the new baby clothes in the chest of drawers, he put the bassinet box on the floor and set to building it.
"Sounds like a plan," Ace replied as she grabbed clothes for Aden and went into the bathroom that was in the basement. "Come here you little monster, you're going to be a clean little boy, what did grandma let you get into Aden?" She knew that she would get no response from her dirt encrusted son. She started to hum a song that her mother use to sing to her, she couldn't remember the words but she remembered the tune. "You're covered in dirt and formula and is that blood?" She shook her head as she got a good water temp going and filled the baby tub. "I'm going to have a chat with your darling grandparents."
"How long does it take you to clean a tiny baby Ace?" Warren asked as he came in, he was sweating and hugged her from behind. "I mean he couldn't have been that dirty, Saiyuri was practically immaculate when Lily and Garth picked her up." He looked down at the water and saw that it was black. "Or maybe he was that dirty." He hugged Ace again and smiled at her.
"He was covered in dirt, formula, and for some reason blood, if my baby saw his first kill at two days old I may just murder my parents," Ace replied as she drained the water from the baby tub and refilled it. She continued to gently scrub her son clean, having to change the tub water again because it was black. "There we go finally clean you little monster you." She took him out of the tub and toweled him off gently before dressing him in his Mommy's Little Hot Head onesie and rocking him for a bit. She handed him to Warren and they walked to the bed. "Now just to feed and burp you and get you to bed." She took Aden back from Warren as soon as she was sitting on the bed, she fed him and burped him. She rocked him and began to sing softly, she was singing a song that her mother use to sing to her.
"He's asleep, go put him down and I'll show you my prom tux if you like?" Warren asked as soon as he was sure that Aden was asleep, Ace nodded and turned to put Aden in the little bassinet that was now attached to their own bed. He walked to the closet and grabbed his garment bag before walking into the bathroom and changing, He came back out wearing a pair of black pants, a black shirt, a red vest, a red bow tie, and a pair of black leather dress shoes, his hair was down and the tux coat had tales, he looked so handsome. "What do you think?" She looked him over and straightened his tie before nodding.
"I love it, you look so handsome all dressed up," Ace replied quietly, she didn't want to wake her son up. "Now if you'll go change I'll have to have help into mine, but I'll let you see it." Warren nodded and went to go change into his night clothes, which since they were sleeping in the basement now, consisted of a pair of pants instead of just the boxers. He came back out to find her grabbing her garment bag and opening it to reveal a ball gown. "I'll step into it and if you could lace it up for me." She had gotten a corset back dress because of the fact that yes she had the chest to hold it up, but the corset back provided better slip protection for her then at zip back. She stepped into it and pulled it up her body, she held it where it needed to be and motioned for Warren to lace it, which he did, as tight as she could comfortably have it.
"You look beautiful Ace," Warren whispered as she carefully turned around so that he could see the front. "And how do you propose to top this for our wedding?" It was a valid question, her dress was quite extravagant and so were the shoes she was going to wear with it, however she didn't have those on at the moment. She winked at him and smiled, she would top it no problem. "Now how about you get that off and we get to planning our portion of the wedding?" Ace nodded and turned back around so that he could unlace her, after she got out of the dress she put her dress back in the garment bag, she put her pajamas on.
"Sounds like a plan to me," She sat on the bed in her pajamas looking at Warren. She looked at him and smiled, he grabbed a pad and paper. "So what do we have to plan?" She laid down and looked at Aden, who was sleeping peacefully, she loved that her son slept mostly through the night. Warren had made a checklist after he finished the bassinet, he had had time.
"Um… your dress and my tux, our colors, and our cake," Warren replied as he looked at the list he had made, there were only a few things that each couple could do on their own.
"What would you like to go over first?" Ace asked as she made sure that Aden was okay and that he was in a good position to not roll and hurt himself. She then sat up and looked at Warren.
"We could go over cake," Warren replied as he looked at Ace, he wanted to get it over with because he loved cake and didn't want to talk about it.
"YAY! What kind would you want?" Ace asked as she reached under the bed and grabbed a small booklet that had a picture of a cake on it. "I'm good with almost anything."
"I'm up for any flavor you'd like," Warren replied as he looked at Ace with a smile.
"I want your actual opinion on the matter," Ace stated as she looked at Warren. She had the booklet out and was looking over options. "So what kinds of cake do you like?"
"I like Marble cake Ace," Warren replied as he looked at Ace, she was excited.
"So do I, now frosting?" Ace asked as she ticked off the marble cake box , she was looking over an order form. "What type do you like?"
"I was thinking a simple buttercream," Warren replied as he looked around the room.
"I like it, any specific flavor?" Ace asked as she looked through the booklet.
"How about chocolate?" Warren replied in question as he looked at Ace, he walked over to the bed and checked on his son.
"I like that idea, so now about fillings if you want one," Ace stated as she ticked off the chocolate butter cream frosting box.
"How about some type of citrus filling?" Warren asked as he looked at Aden.
"They have lemon, orange, and grapefruit," Ace replied as she looked at Warren. "Which do you prefer?"
"Maybe lemon?" Warren asked as he sat on the bed.
"I like lemon, now how many tiers?" Ace replied in question as she looked at the form for the options for the amounts. "They do three, four, five and seven tiers for wedding cakes."
"I say three tiers," Warren replied as he looked at his son.
"I like that number, there won't be that many people there anyway," Ace stated as she ticked off the three tier box and looked over the form to see if there was anything she might have missed. "Uh… do you want any specific writing or decorations?"
"Something simple and elegant," Warren replied as he put Aden's baby blanket on him up to his waist.
"Like what?" Ace asked as she looked over the blank space that she was able to write in.
"Things like a shell boarder, lace work of some sort, things like that," He replied as he tucked in the edges of the blanket.
"Would you like any special writing?" She asked as she filled in all the specifications that Warren had asked for, all she needed was colors and any special writings. "And what color would you want for the decorations to be in?"
"I'd love it if the decorations were in red and black," Warren replied as she filled in the color choices. She was looking at the options that were left. "And as for the writing, what would you want?"
"I was thinking something along the lines of 'Together Forever Never to Part.' And ' Warren and Ace.'," Ace replied as she looked down at the space she had for the words. "What do you think Warren?" She was hoping that he liked the words that she picked, she was debating between one of two phrases.
"I like it, it's very us," Warren stated as he looked at her, he wanted nothing more than to cuddle with her.
"YAY!" Ace exclaimed as she looked down at the form again, "so would there be anything else?" She filled in the words in the proper spaces. "Um… what shape would you like the cake to be, they have heart, round, square, octagon, and a flower for some strange reason?" She was looking at the shape options and looked at the square and the heart.
"I like the square," Warren replied as he looked over her shoulder at the book.
"Sounds awesome," She stated as she smiled at him and filled in the proper square for the square cakes. "So that's the cake, do you want to go over anything else tonight?"
"Nothing that I can think of, this cake will look amazing," Warren replied as he wrapped his arms around her gently.
"Ok, so what are the other things that we have to do for our portions of the wedding?" Ace asked as she tore out the form from the back of the book, she reached over Warren and put it on the table that was next to the bed.
"Your dress, my tux and the colors are all that's left," He replied as he watched Aden after Ace moved.
"What were you thinking of for colors?" Ace wondered as she looked at him with a smile and put her hand on his face.
"I was thinking black," He replied happily as he reached for her hand that was on his face.
:Would you want any other colors?" Ace asked as she looked at him and pulled his hand to her face before she kissed it.
"Maybe red," He replied as he moved her so that she was pinned underneath him and he kissed her deeply.
"I'd like that, and just so you know, I can't do anything for about two to three weeks," Ace stated after she kissed him back. "So would you want to go dress shopping with me?"
"Isn't it bad luck for the groom to see the dress before the wedding?" Warren asked as he stayed in his spot above her.
"Only if you believe that it is," She replied as she looked up at him with a smile. "You don't have to go if you don't want to." She looked at her son who had shifted, she didn't want him waking up.
"I'd love to go dress shopping with you," He stated as he kissed her again, he loved being around her.
"Thank you so much Warren, I think we'll need two guys to hold my mother back anyway," Ace replied with a chuckle as she looked at Warren, she was hoping that he would never leave her, she didn't know if she could take it, especially after having his child. He chuckled and it still made her melt. "You think I'm kidding?" She felt Aden start to heat up so she moved the blanket off of him.
"No I know that you're not kidding," He stated as he shifted off her and moved both of them so that they were on their sides. "I'm just thinking of mine and Garth's faces after trying to hold back your mother." She thought about it and found them to be amusing faces.
"Oh she's not that bad… I hope," Ace replied as she kissed Warren. He kissed her back.
(With Garth and Lily)
"N-no… do-don't leave me…," Lily whimpered as she slept, she was sleeping quite fitfully, she was caught in a nightmare that she couldn't shake. Garth woke up.
"Lily?" He asked as he shook her gently. "Lily are you okay?" He shook her again. She sent a vine at him, she subconscious thinking she was under attack. Saiyuri started crying loudly causing Lily to wake up.
"Shh… Saiyuri mommy has you," Lily whispered as she rocked Saiyuri after having taken her out of the bassinet.
"What were you dreaming about Lily?" Garth asked as he watched his future wife and daughter.
"Nothing Garth," She replied as she continued to rock Saiyuri.
"Lily you were practically crying, what was the dream about?" He pressed, he was worried about her.
"It's nothing Garth," She replied again, her tone final and saying drop it now. He nodded and looked at her.
"How's Saiyuri?" He asked, he had dropped the subject.
"She's fine Garth," Lily replied as she rocked her baby.
"Come back to bed then Lily, we can cuddle if you want," He stated, he just wanted her to come back to be. He was holding the blanket up for when she came back to bed.
"No, you go back to sleep, I'll come back to bed later," She replied as she put Saiyuri back in the bassinet and looked at her for a few moments.
"Lily please talk to me," He started as he sat up in the bed and looked at her. "I want to help you Lily."
"It's nothing Garth, just an old nightmare that I've had since I was thirteen," She replied quietly as she looked at him. "I'll be fine after I meditate for a little bit."
"If you're sure?" He started, he was worried about her. "Is there any way I can help at all?" She smiled tightly.
"I'm fine Garth, just go back to bed," She said before kissing his cheek and leaving the bedroom. Garth laid back down and waited for Lily to get back, he was worried but didn't know what to do. Once she was in the living room she dialed her mom's number and waited. 'Hi baby-girl.' Ivy stated after she picked up the phone. "Hi mommy," Lily replied, her voice strained. 'What's wrong baby-girl, I can hear it in your voice what's wrong?' Her mother asked, she was worried because it was one in the morning and her daughter had called her sounding ready to cry. "I-I had the nightmare again...the one that started after-" Lily started but choked back a sob. 'It's okay sweetie. Everything will be okay, what I want you to do is drink some warm milk and go lay down with Garth. He's willing to help you through everything,' Ivy replied soothingly, hoping that her daughter would take her advice. "No, it's not okay… it's my fault he's dead," Lily replied angrily. 'Lily, it's not your fault… you told him to run, he didn't,' Ivy stated calmly, her and her daughter often went round and round with this argument. "Yes it is mom! He told me to run but I stayed, because I was there he was too distracted to see that croc was going for his chest and pumped that overdose of venom into him," Lily replied in an aggravated tone as she ran a hand through her hair. 'Lily, you are both stubborn individuals, and we never told you this but since you're getting married I see no better time. He knew what he was doing baby-girl, if Croc hadn't killed Bane... he would have gone after you and Bane knew that,' Ivy stated, she had wanted to wait until her child was 21 to tell her that the man she saw as a surrogate father had known what he was doing and had effectively committed suicide so that she would be okay. Lily started sobbing so Ivy continued, 'Everything will turn out right in the end baby-girl... if it isn't right it isn't the end. Keep that in mind till your wedding day. Now go get some sleep you'll be no good to your daughter tired.' "Okay mom, I love you," Lily replied as she wiped her eyes. 'I love you too baby-girl, and remember it's not right so it's not the end. Have a good night sleep,' Ivy stated soothingly to her daughter. "I'll try mommy," She said before she hung up the phone and curled up on the couch.
"Lily, come on up to bed," Garth called from up the stairs, he was worried about Lily.
"I'll be there in a minute," Lily called back as she continued to wipe her eyes, she didn't want Garth to see her like this.
"Thank you, are you feeling better now?" Garth asked as he walked to the top of the stairs, he didn't want to wake Saiyuri.
"Not really," She mumbled to herself, before getting a bit louder so that Garth could hear, "Yeah, I'm fine."
"No you're not Lily, I can hear it in your voice, but I won't pester you. So come up and come to bed, I won't pester you about what's wrong because I hope that you'll tell me when you're ready to," Garth replied from his spot at the top of the stairs. Lily wiped her face one more time before she walked up stairs to meet Garth. "Let's go lay down shall we?" Lily nodded and walked back into the room, she checked on Saiyuri before she laid down and cuddled with Garth.
(A few Weeks Later (The Day of Prom))
"So are you girls getting ready at Warren's or Eric's?" Garth asked as he watched Lily scramble around.
"We're getting ready at Eric's, he offered to watch the kids tonight so me and Ace are going to meet over there," Lily replied as she packed Saiyuri's diaper bag with everything that would be needed to take care of her daughter.
"Ok and we'll be meeting you at the dance? I thought Ace had said that Mrs. Peace was watching the kids because Eric got asked last minute to be a chaperone?" Garth asked, he was slightly confused because he had been told about twelve different things.
"That's right, I completely forgot about that," Lily replied as she smacked herself in the forehead, he had forgotten that one of the other teachers had to go do something else and Eric was called in as a chaperone.
"It's okay Lily, she actually texted me to remind me as well, you are still dressing at his house however Mrs. Peace will be there to pick up Saiyuri and I to go get ready at her house," Garth stated as he grabbed his garment bag and shoes.
"Okay good," Lily replied as she placed Saiyuri in her carrier and they grabbed everything, they walked down to the car and got it.
(About 45 minutes later at Draven's apartment)
"Hey Lily," Ace stated as she got out of the car that Mrs. Peace had driven her in, her garment bag slung over her shoulder and her shoes in hand. She waved to Mrs. Peace and walked to Lily.
"Hey Ace," Lily replied as she began unpacking everything from the car, her dress and shoes, the diaper bag, and her daughter.
"You ready to get changed?" Ace asked as she helped get Saiyuri into the car, after Lily kissed Garth goodbye and they were all in the car Mrs. Peace drove off.
"Yeah, let's go get change," Lily replied as they walked into the building and up to Eric's apartment. "I hope the boys will like the dresses." They walked into Ace's old room and put their garment bags on the bed, they were going to get into dresses then do hair and makeup.
"They'll love the dresses, now I'll help you if you help me," Ace stated as she unzipped her garment bag and looked at her bag of makeup and hair care products. Lily got her dress out of the bag as well and slipped into her dress before turning so that Ace could zip her up. "Now I'll do your hair and makeup and then we can do me."
(About an hour later (At Prom))
"You girls look amazing," Garth stated as he and Warren walked up to Lily and Ace. "Lily you look beautiful." She blushed and hugged Garth. "Can I have this dance?" Lily nodded and the two of them walked off to go dance.
"Can I have this dance Ace?" Warren asked as he held out a hand to her. Ace nodded and took Warren's hand, they walked onto the dance floor, Ace looked slightly out of place with her overly large dress but she didn't care. "You look beautiful by the way Ace, oh so very beautiful." They danced around the floor, having a lovely time.
"Could I cut in?" Someone asked from behind Warren. Warren turned around with a flaming hand to find his father. "Hello Warren." They stopped dancing, Warren wondered why his father was there, and how his father was there.
"Hey Mr. Battle, Warren do you like my surprise?" Ace asked as she looked from father to son and back again. "I broke him out last week."
