"Hey Esme!" Abby said happily. "Very nice, makes me jealous. But red isn't really my color when my hair is blond like this. It clashes." Ab bit her lip a bit, some girls were so lucky to be able to wear any color and make it seem good. Maybe she should start dying her hair red again. She tugged and pulled at her hair a little at this. "Damn balls, making me all nervous." she muttered, only loud enough for them to hear "Damn body, making it so hard to find a dress that would fit" She started fidgiting with her dress now "Damn hair, making me all... hairy..."
Most things like this didn't have such an effect on her, not that she could really say, she'd only ever been to one school ball before, but this time it was different. This time it mattered, which made Abby nervous, nauseous and worried. She had to try her best to make herself look, well, okay looking at least this time, because what really mattered to her right now was a certain someones judgement. Damn ball, damn body, damn hair "Damn Carey"

"Oh Abby..." Esme smiled and dashed over to her. "You look just as beautiful as anybody. Red just happens to be the color that flatters me. But I can't decide on my shoes! It's awful...either these or these" Esme held up the two pairs of heels in either hand and acted like she was weighing them on a scale.

London smiled at Abby. So she had just admitted who was taking her. "So he did ask you to the fling. Good for you!" London turned her back on Abby and laughed silently. It's not like she didn't already know this was going to admit it. Abby just had a little thing for not telling people what they want to know and stalling.

After finishing helping the Head Boy and Girl fix up the Great Hall for the Fling, Lisette took one last round at the corridors, checking for trouble makers. After finding none, she proceeded to go to the Ravenclaw tower. No one was around when she had taken a shower, but once she stepped out she found a commotion in the dormitory. Everyone was bustling about trying to get ready. “Hey girls!” She said cheerfully waving to each, her other hand clutching the towel around her. “Liesl I see you did choose a Bohemian style. London, the dress is wonderful. Esme, the black heels seem better. Oh and Abby! Stunning!” She walked over to her trunk and pulled out her own things. She had been keeping her dress and accessories secret from the rest, so she was anxious to see what they thought. She had put the dress on dozens of times, and had her hair and makeup all set and ready. She slipped on her dress and got ready awfully quick, having known days earlier what she’d do. She had taken Liesl’s advice and gone with a 50s look. Her hair was in a half up-do with a beautiful red lily in her hair. Her neck wore a single golden locket. Having finished she turned to the girls and asked “How do I look?”

Liesl clapped her hands. "Oh my gosh, Lisette. You look gorgeous!" She exclaimed, beaming at her friend. "And yes, I decided Bohemian was good for me." She added with a laugh.

"Ohhhhh Lisette! You look so gorgeous!" Esme dashed over to her friend and gave her a delicate hug so neither of thier dresses would get mussed. "Fifties looks so good on you! And we're both wearing red..." Esme did a silly little girlish clap and spun around before sitting on a bed and putting on the black heels.

Abby blushed at what Esme had said, but she but after London talked, her face was as bright as Esme's dress. Though she hadn't of said anything to London in response, on the inside she was kicking herself for saying that last bit out loud. "Esme, The black stilettos are good, but if you aren't trained in the ancient art of dancing-in-six-inch-heels I would suggest the red ones!" Abby herself could do so, but she really disliked to, as it hurt her feet after a while. But on occasions, she had to so...
"Lisette! How's the Hall look?" Abby asked as Lisette came into the room from the bathroom. Abby had only talked to Lisette a short while ago, just before she went off to do the hall. She still couldn't believe that she had to leave her best friend at the end of the school year. "What this old thing? Oh, I'm just getting changed out of it into that pair of Jeans and tee-shirt I mentioned a while ago!" Abby said, knowing that everyone but Lisette wouldn't have a clue of what she was on about.
"But you girls all look so spectacular, I always said that red was your color Lisette, though to be honest I never thought it would be yours Esme, but I was wrong there. And London and I are the Ravenclaw spirit girls, wearing blue and all. But Liesl looks utterly fabulous in that dress."
"But now, does anyone know what I could do with my horribly blonde hair? I'm at a lack of inspiration." Abby said, once again pulling at her hair. Sometimes it really did annoy her. If she had to have blonde hair, it could at least have some color to it, like Liesl's did, but no. She was stuck with blonde hair that really messed up many of the dresses she tried out.
((Hmm, I wonder how Abby didn't see Lisette while she was having a shower... lol!))

Lisette grinned and nodded at Liesl. "It does go with you....and your personality." She told her. She accepted Esme's hug telling her. "You look gorgeous too! And yes, both red! They'll think we're Gryffindors!" She laughed.
She turned to Abby and ran a hand through her blonde hair. "I love your hair Abby!" She said, "But if you want color. Well would you be okay if we dyed it?"
((She was purposely hiding from everyone...I think she just hid. She could have used an invisibility charm!))

Abby smiled "Just as long as you dye it a color that'll match my worn out jeans and baggy tee-shirt!" This wasn't something that the usual Abby would do, not the dyeing part as she used to do that, but letting someone else do it, without a set color, without caring if it turned out to be bright pink. For some reason she felt like doing something out of the ordinary.
"Do whatever you want"

Liesl brightened at the mention of dying hair. "Can I help? I love to do stuff like that." She said excitedly. "I think if we dyed it a blondish red color, it would go with your coloring and your dress." She stated with a knowledgeable air.

"Sort of like a strawberry blonde? I may even have some red hair dye, we could use a little of that if no one has any proper stuff!" Abby said, all at once. She was exited about this, she had needed to loosen up after the past few weeks of work, and this was hopefully going to help her do just that.

"Ok then, we're dying your hair!" Lisette said with a nod. "Will someone be a dear and get the dye? In her trunk." Lisette asked turning to the girls. She looked at her Abby and grinned. "Carey will go nuts once he sees you." She told the girl, placing a towel on her shoulders.

"I'm not too sure about that..." Abby said quietly before adding louder before running off to her closet "Wait, give me a second" When she got to the closet, she reached up high on her tipy-toes and brought down a box and a big black shirt "Just in case" She said while slipping the thick material over her dress. She then took the box and dropped it at the back of the chair she had, at some point, acquired. "Multitude of utensils. Do what you please with them."

Esme laughed as preperations were made to dye Abby's hair. "Ah, well, I'm going to go do my makeup and get my hair done, so I'll be in the bathroom." Having decided on a dramatic look for her makeup, she set her makeup tooks aside as she played around with her hair, finally deciding to just pull it back in a ponytail and curl it. Then, after some considering, she put in a feather decoration in her hair. After she did her makeup, she quickly cast a hairspray charm on her 'do and dashed back out into the room.

Erina put the finishing touches on her hair and walked out into the halls, hearing someone talking in the adjacent dorm she walked in to find a room of gabbing Ravenclaws getting ready for a party. She walked into the room head held high in her stunning silver dress with her long blonde hair loosly curled with her bangs swept over the the right. She squealed as she saw Esme in her dress - she really did look stunning. Hey Girls! You all look stunning - Leisl, the bohemian look really is nice for you! London - stunning as always, Lisette - perfect! And Esme...it looks 10x's more amazing on you than it did on your bed! Erina turned around to see Abby in a chair with a big black tee shirt on and a towel over her shoulders, with a bottle of red hair dye standing up on her trunk. Erina raised a brow and asked the obvious question. Abs...what are they doing to you? And I hope you don't plan on covering that beautiful dress with that tee shirt! Shoes!Hair!
