I paid for my Hello Kitty preorder and I have plenty of money left for another Pullip (or maybe two). I was thinking of saving up to try and get a Lati Doll later, but the cost makes me feel physical pain and I can't be sure I would love the doll if I got it...so I'm going to stick with Pullips for now. I may possibly get Lan Ake (nude, if I can find her, I have one possible seller I'm communicating with). I don't know what else I want so I'm going to save the rest for later. Anyway, that's my Pullip news (as if I need any more Pullips...but whatever, heh).
Here is the next chapter of "House of Pullip" for you, please enjoy it! I was hoping to get it done yesterday but I felt really awful. Today I feel better, but still not that great, but better enough to work on it. I also got several other chapters done so I'll post those up as well over the next few days :D
Chapter 82:
*Paige and Sebastian have arrived at the ball and are dancing*
Paige: This is nice…and I had no idea you were such a skilled dancer.
Sebastian: There are many benefits to being brought up in royalty; I had many dancing lessons…among other things.
Paige: Heh, I’m sure.
Paige: Look, there is Rayna! Doesn’t she look darling?
Sebastian: Yes…she looks lovely.
Paige: Oh…she’s all by herself. I don’t understand why no one has asked her to dance.
Sebastian: *looks around in an effort to try and locate a partner for Rayna*
Paige: I have an idea, you should ask her to dance.
Sebastian: Me?
Paige: Didn’t they teach you chivalry in all those royalty lessons?
Sebastian: As a matter of fact…yes. Perhaps you are right…that is, if you do not mind.
Paige: Of course not.
*The song ends, Paige and Sebastian approach Rayna*
Paige: I’m so happy to see you Rayna. You look so pretty!
Rayna: *blush* Thank you.
Paige: Didn’t you come with anyone?
Rayna: Just some friends, they are dancing now. *indicates Grace and Jonas*
*A new song starts*
Sebastian: Miss Rayna, I would be honored if you would dance with me. *takes her hand*
Rayna: *huge blush* Oh…um…I don’t know…I don’t really know how to dance.
Sebastian: Then let me teach you. It is not difficult.
Rayna: *still blushing* But…Paige…
Paige: Don’t be silly, go dance and have fun! *shoves Rayna toward Sebastian*
*Sebastian leads a reluctant Rayna out to dance*
Rayna: I really don’t know how to dance.
Sebastian: Do not worry; just take my hand like this. *reaches for one of her hands* Now put your other hand on my shoulder and I will put mine at your waist.
*Rayna does what she is told*
Rayna: Um…like this?
Sebastian: Very good, but relax your elbows just a bit, do not be so stiff.
Rayna: Is this better?
Sebastian: Much better! Now…just follow my lead.
*Sebastian slowly takes her through some simple dance steps*
Rayna: *finally relaxes a little and smiles* This is fun, thank you for teaching me how.
Sebastian: My pleasure. It’s the least I can do with my sword sparing partner.
Rayna: This might sound like a stupid question…but where is the music coming from? I didn’t notice a stereo or anything…
Sebastian: Ronan used his magic.
Rayna: Oh…of course.
Sebastian: You look very lovely this evening.
Rayna: *blush* Thank you.
Sebastian: *smiles* And thanks to you I am having a nice time.
Rayna: Me?
Sebastian: It’s not every day I have the opportunity to teach a beautiful lady how to dance.
Rayna: *deep blush*
*The song ends*
Rayna: Th…thank you…Sebastian.
Sebastian: And thank you.
*He leads her back to the side*
*Sebastian kisses Rayna’s hand*
Sebastian: I hope you enjoy the rest of your evening.
Rayna: *blush* I…I will. Thanks again.
*Sebastian returns to Paige, Rayna sits back down*
Rayna: *sigh* Oh no…
To be continued...
Lovehaze saw this coming...I don't know of anyone else who did :P
