CHAPTER 24

Scarlett's POV

" Queen Scarlett, Lexi asked me to tell you if you can head down to the great ballroom to see if you like how things are going so far," Liam said with a serious face

" again I said you can call me Scarlett, not Queen Scarlett we're friends now remember," I said turning around

" wait for Que-  I mean Scarlett I have a question since we are 'friends' " he said as he used his fingers to air-quote the word friends

" We are friends now ask away," I said turning back to him

" is Nathan interested in the male species?" Liam asked

I laughed at his choice of wording

"You mean if he is gay?"

"Yes," he said

" yeah he is I thought you would've noticed with all the flirting it's been doing," I said giggling a bit

"Ah in my 200 hundred years of life I've never come across someone like him-"

"A gay guy?"

"No such an outgoing person who is smart, kind, and good looking," Liam said as he turned his heels and walked away

I'm going to assume he doesn't realize what he just said

I then see his head popped out from the corner he just turned

"I think I like Nathen," he said with a small smile as realization hit him

And with that, he kept going where were you were going and I was practically jumping with joy for Nathan

For a minute I got disoriented and then I realize that I had to go check the great ballroom so I make my way over there and waited to hear Lexi and Lenna bark orders as everyone

I walked in to see the ceiling had gold and white streamers going from the middle of the ceiling to the edges of the walls and in the middle of all the streamers hanged a huge chandelier

The tables were decorated nicely with a white table cloth with a smaller gold cloth going through the middle the decorations are simple but that's what I love

I looked at Lexi who was on the stage singing her lungs out while Lenna sat and clapped

"What is going on," I asked out loud

Lexi screamed probably because I scared the shit outta her

"You scared us," Lenna said laughing

"Sorry is everything done," I asked

"Yup just needs your approval," Lena said grabbing her clipboard next to her

I walked over to her and sighed my name. This is just to make sure if I say something isn't done the way I want they have proof that I said it was perfect

"You made sure to mix all wolves, Vampires, and Witches at tables right?" I asked as I handed the board over to Lenna

"Yes of course we did," Lexi said jumping off the stage

"Okay well I have to go get fitted for a dress," I said sighing I hated wearing dresses but Acacias said I could change later into comfy clothes

"Okay oh are we still on for tonight," Lexi asked me as I was leaving

"Yeah totally after I get fitted I'll text y'all," I said as I was leaving

Tonight the girls and I are hanging out we are going out to eat, shop a bit, go back to Blair's house go swimming, and then have a sleepover

-

I walk through the halls and walked to my room when I heard a bunch of chatter. I opened the door to see Blair and Xavier getting fitted. Blair was laughing at Xavier who pleaded with the lady who was trying to get his measurements to stop tickling him

He's very sensitive.

"AH, Queen you are here step up on the platform so we can get to work, Miss. Blair here told us we are on a time crunch" said the middle-aged woman with a strong British accent

I took off my jacket and tossed it to the bed and stood on the platform and she got to work

Blair, Xavier, and I were talking about random stuff laughing. Xavier even got the ladies who were fitting us to dance The tango with him. Don't ask.

Getting fitted was more fun than I thought

"Bye-bye ladies and Xavier we'll see you in a couple of days with the dresses and suit," said the ladies as they left

"Bye," we all said

"Well I have to go my mom wants me to help her clean out the garage," Xavier said grabbing his jacket and gave us a small hug, and made his way out

"Ima go change and take a quick shower," Blair said grabbing her bag and jacket and headed out

I bellyflop onto my bed and roll over and sigh

Never would I have thought that I would be here today or be here without my mom I could feel the tears building up

I heard the doorknob turn and I turned to face the opposite direction and wipe my tears

"Hey" I turn to see Acacias

I smiled and got up and hugged him tightly

"I missed you" I mumbled

"Me too," he said hugging me even tighter

We pulled away and Acacias kicked off his shoes and jumped onto the bed I crawled into the bed next to him he turned to look at me and smiled and attacked me with kisses all over my face

We both laughed

I looked over at the time and realized I'm running late I tried to pull away

"Stay with me," Acacias said pulling me back towards him

"You know the girls will kill me," I said looking him in the eyes

"You and me hangout tomorrow all day," he said resting his forehead against mine

"Of course that would be fun," I said with a smile

"I have to go get ready," I said trying to get out of his grip

"Just one more hour," he said hugging me tightly

" have to go," I said playing with his hair

"Fine call me when you are with the girls to make sure you as safe," he said finally letting go

"Of course I will," I said giving him a kiss then rolling off the bed to get ready to hang out with the girls

-

"Hey girly" Aurora said giving me a hug

I met up with the girls at the pack's town and when I say girls I mean Blair, Stephanie, Abigail, Mia, Lexi, Loren, Aurora, Max, Bella, Tessa, and Lenna

"Are y'all ready to have some fun?" Tessa said walking down the street

"ARE YOU GUYS READY TO GET FUCKED UP?" Max said pulling out a bottle of tequila

"No," Aurora said snatching the bottle away from her

"Yes," Max said snatching the bottle back and ran off with it

"This is going to be a long-ass night," Blair said laughing

"You think," Abigail said laughing with her
