Chapter 12~
At 6:45pm, you'd gotten your dress on and you were about to leave your room. You felt slightly uncomfortable in the dress, but you'd gotten used to it in no time, along with a pair of heeled boots you'd borrowed from Misayo's wardrobe, and a few bracelets and necklaces you'd brought with you from the apartment room. Your heart fluttered as you left your room and headed down to the entryway, curious to find out what was happening. As you walked down the front stairs, you spotted Byakuya talking to a maid, but in no time he spotted you. He blushed when he saw your outfit, and so did you when you saw his. He was wearing a black shirt, shoes, and trousers/pants, and a white blazer and tie. As you walked down the final step, Byakuya took your hand.
"So, what's going on? Where are we going?" You ask calmly and curiously.
"I was going to take you on a date, but then I remembered I had a business party tonight. So I decided to take you with me. Shall we get going then?" He smiled, opening the door. You nodded, and headed after him out of the mansion. You saw a black limo outside, and gasped, as you'd never seen (or even been in) one before. Byakuya held the limo's door open for you as you gingerly sat down, and he followed after you quickly. The interior of the limo was big and well-lit, with large leather seats. It was all so luxurious for you, and you sat quietly in awe. Byakuya noticed, and smiled at your behaviour.
Soon, you arrived at a hall, with other people who were also dressed in formal outfits. Due to your childhood of growing up in a small town, you felt out of place. You exited the limo, and Byakuya followed after you. As you took a moment to look up at the building, Byakuya held out his arm, and you took it, walking with him up to the entrance. As you entered the building, your eyes darted around the place, looking at all the different people in beautifully formal attire. You definitely didn't feel like you fitted in. You and Byakuya both split to different areas of the place, and you decided to get a drink to calm your nerves. You went up to the drinks counter, but before you could pour yourself a drink, a girl (around the same age as you) appeared next to you, making you jump. She had maroon hair, grey eyes, a red dress, and lightly tanned skin. She looked at you with a smile, but soon decided to speak.
"Hi! What's your name?" She asked, pouring herself some expensive champagne.
"I'm Y/n L/n, the Ultimate Mystery Writer. How about you?" You reply, drinking a small cup of sparkilng water (pretend your either underaged or you just don't like alcohol).
"I'm Rosella Takahashi, the Ultimate Dancer. So, why are you here? Any important business deals that need to get done?"
"O-Oh, Im here on behalf of my partner-"
"Cool! Im not really here for business either, I'm trying to find someone I can fall in love with. You know any good men?"
"N-No, I don't, sorry. Though hopefully it shouldn't be hard to find someone here,"
"Exactly. So you say your here on behalf of your partner, right? Who is it, If you don't mind me asking?"
"Oh, I'm here with Byakuya Togami-"
"Byakuya Togami!? Really? Wow!" Rosella quietly exclaimed, sipping on her champagne slowly...
