《Sway(Wattys 2015)》I want it
Advertisement
As soon as the doors were open and I had walked in, my jaw was almost touching the floor. There were dresses everywhere, racks were filled with different coloured gowns in all different lengths. I looked over to Tasha who was almost in tears.
"Hello and welcome to Blossom, I'm Olivia" she greeted, me and Tasha just smiled in response.
"Hello Olivia, I'm Miss Jones, I'm here for an appointment ,I believe Paris has reserved some dresses" miss jones said.
"Oh of course, right this way" she lead the way and we followed.We were lead through some double doors, just when I thought it couldn't get any better there were more dresses but this time they looked more expensive.
"It's Rogue isn't it " Olivia questioned
"Yes and my friend Tasha"
"Since it's for a special occasion nothing but the best will do"
"How do you know?" I ask
"I'm a vampire , Paris is a good friend of mine.She told me that she would be needing a dress so here you are "
"I have a few dresses here that she wants you to try on if you don't like them it's fine there's plenty more to try on, the bill has been taken care off , so today yourself ,Tasha and Miss jones will be leaving with a dress,shoes,mask and accessories.Am I right?"
"I won't be attending the ball "Miss Jones corrected
"Paris assured me that you would also be needing a dress" she corrected.
"If you all would like to step into the changing rooms , me and my assistant will pass the dresses through" we all nodded our heads and walked into the large ,white dressing rooms.
The first dress was handed to me ,it was a black fish tale dress.It looked amazing on but it I wasn't sure if it was suitable for the event. I stepped out of the dressing room to show the others.

"That looks amazing Rogue!" Tasha complimented.She was wearing a peach puffy dress. Miss jones had on a blue dress.
"You both look great " I complimented.
"I don't know, this isn't the one for me" i said
"Yeah me neither " Tasha agreed
We all returned to the dressing room for the next dress. This time I stepped out in a white lace dress.
"I don't like this one " I confessed
"This is to young for me" Said Miss Jones
All of a sudden the room was filled with Tasha's scream. She came running out in an amazing navy blue, one sleeved dress. I knew by looking at her face that she wanted that dress.
"This is it , i love it!" She squealed
"You look to die for Tasha , you should get It" I said and Miss Jones nodded her head in agreement.
I was now trying on the 5th dress , it was a violet coloured dress. And yet again I didn't think it was the one I wanted to wear. But I still came out of the room.
"I want this one" said miss jones in a glittery black dress, it looked great on her body and it was perfect for a age.
"You look amazing "
"You've tried on all the dresses Paris picked out, all of our best dresses have been taken by the other women attending the event, you can look around but I don't think you'll find anything that will really stand out" Olivia apologised.
"But I can't leave without a dress"
"Tasha and Miss Jones still have to find there accessories , if you find nothing then I'll have a look in the back and I'll have it sent to you tomorrow" Olivia suggested.
Tasha and Miss Jones had finished getting the rest of there stuff and I still hadn't found a dress.With no other option I had to trust Olivia and just hope she finds a dress in time for tomorrow.We thanked her and left.

Thankfully when we got back to the rooms the other girls were to busy trying on there dresses that had arrived to notice we had left.
I was feeling hungry so I decided to make some food , as always I ended up making food for everyone else, I helped the girls clean the kitchen and the rest of the place before I went to my room to clean up there.
It took about 3hrs for me to clean my room , I reorganised my clothes and shoes,i polished and vacuumed the place as well as cleaning my bathroom.Once everything was done I was to tired to do anything else so I ended up falling asleep.
It was almost 12 when I woke up, I had over slept longer then I normally would. I decided not to shower until later on. It was then that I remembered I didn't have a dress or anything in that matter, I decided not to dwell on that I still had hope that Olivia had found a dress and it would be here before 7:30.
We were all called to the royal part of the mansion. The ball was being held in the ball room, ironic really. It was spectacular , extraordinary. Huge glass chandeliers hung from the ceilings, historic paintings covered the walls, the cream marble floor made the room look even bigger, unique numerals and ancient drawings covered the ceiling ,the platform where the orchestra and performers were ,had been decorated with gold and expensive decor, two huge staircases were either side of the room and in between them was the a huge table set out for the food. It was exactly how a royal ball room should be.
Myself and the girls were given different tasks to do, I was sent to the dining room to set the plates and polish the cutlery. It was coming up to 5pm wen we dismissed to get ready we had been working all day and were all looking forward to tonight.
I ran to the room praying that the dress was there but it wasn't, I was on the verge of a panic attack but I calmed myself down , convincing myself it was only 5 o'clock I had plenty of time ,so instead I got into the shower.
I had washed myself with soap , shaved where needed and washed my hair. I brushed my teeth and scrubbed my face , I also used the toilet.I wrapped a towel around my hair and the other around my body and stepped out of the bathroom.
I almost screamed in excitement when I saw a huge rectangle shaped box lying on my bed , 3 smaller boxes were next to it .I ran over to the box , on the tag it read
'I'll see you at the ball-Olivia x'
I pulled of the ribbon and opened the lid , my jaw dropped when I saw the dress.
