/ EPISODE TWO

❛ ❜

❀Luna was sitting on the couch with her brother Conrad's feet on her lap. He was hungover and waiting for a somewhat magical hungover smoothie from Jeremiah. Well he groaned at the noise the group were making in the kitchen, Luna was happily humming as she attempted to make paper rings.

Luna watched Belly enter the kitchen, a soft look on her face as she dismissed her moms worries about the bruise on her cheek. Belly would look back towards Luna every so often, the corner of her lips turning upwards.

"Oh, my god!" Susannah shouted as she hurried down the stairs, her hands holding onto two small pieces of paper. "Belly and Luna are gonna be debutants."

Conrad, who had been looking at his mother whipped his head around way to fast to look at his sister. "Gonna be a sheep, huh?"

"Oh shut up, asshole." Luna stood up. The action causing Conrad who was still laying down to tumble to the floor with a thud. "Ha."

"It's not that big of a deal." Belly brushed it off when Susannah wrapped her arms around her in a hug.

Steven blinked in surprise. "I'm sorry. Like, Belly? Like, my sister? Like, that thing right there?" Steven pointed towards his sister, fake or possibly real disgust on his face.

"Shut up, cretin." Belly snarked back as she grabbed a spoon for herself, and another for Luna, knowing that the Fisher daughter would end up walking over soon and ask for a bite.

"Okay, this is gonna be so much fun. Just you two wait. There is, uh.. there's the tea, the auction, the ball, of course the rehearsal. I gotta write this down." Susannah was so excited, happy that her daughter and Belly were going to be participating in the Debutant ball.

Lunas up now, making her way towards the kitchen where she ends up standing behind Belly with her chin resting on her shoulder. "Can I have a bite?" Luna whispered, opening her mouth when Belly nodded and brought up a spoonful of cereal to her mouth.

Susannah gasped, the action causing Luna to lift her head in panic. "Mom?"

Susannah looked between the two soon to be debutants. "We need to go shopping!"

Belly laughed, the sound making Luna smiled fondly. Gosh, she was so head over heals for Belly that it was almost silly.

"That sounds expensive." Laurel pointed out. She was right, because soon they'd all be walking through as many stores as they could get into, filling up shopping bags for the two girls.

"Oh, don't worry, Laur. It's on me." Luna noticed that her mother waved Laurel off. Of course, it's what she's always done. "It was my idea after all, and we still need to style you for your book party, so..."

Laurel looked towards her daughter, "Belly, are you sure you want to do this?" The debutante ball was much more Lunas thing then Bellys. It was clear from the way that Luna wore a dress since she he was born, and by the way she's acted like a girly - girl somedays. "It's just not very you."

Conrad looked over from his position on the couch, his smoothie in hand. "It's not."

"Conrad, could you please be a little more supportive?" Susannah sent a small glare towards her son before she smiled again. "Now, which one of you are gonna be Bellys escort, and which one of you will be Lunas?"

Conrad shook his head. "Not me. I went last year."

Jeremiah turned away from the oven, "Yeah, and I swore off balls." When Steven laughed at what he said, he was quick to add more. "Dances dude."

"Woah guys, stop fighting over me." Belly said sarcastically as she played with her cereal. "We I'm not doing with any of you. I am going to find my own date." Belly paused her speech before she turned her attention towards Luna. "And what about you, Lolli?"

"I don't know, maybe Izzy."

❀The dress shop that Susannah had dragged Luna, Laurel, and Belly too was way to fancy. The insides looked like it belonged in the show say yes to the dress or whatever it was, Lunas never really watched shows like that.

Belly stepped out first, in a white puffy dress. Tulle and a pretty v neck with skinny straps. It was extravagant, and over the top for Belly.

Luna stepped out when Belly stepped back in, unfortunately not seeing what Belly had tried on and not getting the chance to say "woah, you look nice." Lunas dress was just as puffy as Bellys first dress was, maybe even more puffy. It had an over the shoulder kind of look, not like the v neck Belly's had been.

It was a cycle now. Belly would end up coming out in fluffy white dresses and when she went back into change, Luna would come out in her fluffy dresses. To both girls it felt like an eternity.

Belly was standing in a dress that made her look like a princess. It had a hanging straps that laid on the side of her shoulders. White fake flowers were scattered along the fabric.

Luna stepped out of her dressing room, herself in a similar gown to Bellys. It had many more flowers, and a lace cape that was attached to the hanging straps off her shoulders. The lace cape flowed, and Luna liked to think she looked like a superhero on their wedding day.

It was just when Belly was stepping down of the podium that Luna and her caught each others eyes. Soft hazel eyes that belonged to Belly wondered and roamed the pretty blond that stood in front of her. Sparkling brown eyes that belonged to Luna wondered from Bellys eyes, roaming the pretty dark haired girl in front of herself.

"You look great." Belly was the first to speak, gesturing with her hand to the dress Luna was wearing.

Luna smiled in thanks. "You look wonderful, too."

❀Only an hour or two later, Belly and Luna were being dropped off at the country club for their first day as debutantes.

"Thanks, mom." Belly said as she got out of the car.

"Yes, thank you." Luna added on as she got out of the car, grabbing her yellow purse from the floor.

"Sure. Belly, Luna?" Laurel started, head hanging out the window as she looked towards her daughter and her best friends daughter. "I just want you two to know that if you decide you hate it, or if the girls are mean or even if the food is bad, you can text me. I promise I won't say 'i told you so.'"

Belly smiled nervously. "I'll be fine. We'll be fine."

Luna nodded enthusiastically. "That's right, Luar. I'll be here — Belly can't hate it too much if I'm by her side."

Laurel laughed slightly, "Humor me? Belly, use our code phrase, and I'll be right there. And Luna, just text me and I'll be right there too."

"Mom." Belly groaned. Slightly embarrassed by her mother.

"You remember it from when you were little, right?" Bellys mother ignore the protest-groan that came from her daughter. "Lemon Jelly Belly."

Belly nodded along, "Lemon Jelly Belly."

When Luna and Belly started to walk away side by side, Laurel smiled and leaned out the window once more. "Have fun!"

Belly wasn't sure where to go. Luna on the other hand had some idea, that's why she was holding onto Bellys hand and pulling her along with her towards the entrance. "Let's go, Bells."

Belly followed behind, her gloved hand holding onto Lunas gloveless hand. "I'm following, Lolli. Gee."

When Luna and Belly stepped into the room where all the other girls were, the chatter and noise stopped completely, welcoming the two girls with silence and stares.

"Luna." The woman helping out, running the event, making sure all the girls were settled and such, spoke as she walked over towards the Fisher and Conklin daughters.

"Paige." Luna spoke back, playful laced through her word.

"I didn't think you'd actually show, let alone be dressed up like that for this." Paige pointed out, her hand outreached for Luna to shake. Paige has always had a soft spot for Luna, ever since the blond had snuck in to steal some mini sandwiches.

"It's always a pleasure to see you, Ma'am." Luna smiled, her hand that hadn't shook Paige's still tucked into Bellys.

"Mmhmm."

"This is Isabel Conklin, the woman my mom told you about, Jeremiah's future wife." Luna received a small slap to her shoulder from Belly.

"She's late." Paige paused. "You are both late."

"I-I-I'm so sorry." Belly forced the words out, stumbling under Paiges look.

"You both are at table two."

"Thank you." Luna grinned as she dragged Belly along with her towards table number two. Once they neared, Luna pulled out Bellys chair. "You chair, my lady."

Belly giggled. "Thank you."

It was their first day as debutants, and every time Belly got nervous, she's shift closer to Luna and find the blonds hand. They'd hold hands underneath the table, smiles on their faces, and twinkles in their eyes.
