Chapter 35 decorating for the ball/getting little bro a suit

"We're back everyone!" I said. "Mommy!" said Aria. "Hello baby how are you?" "ok." "Good I'm glad." "Hello Talia." said Jay. "Hi Jay. How is everything here?" "It's the same stuff different day we've been busy with getting ready for the ball." "when is this ball now?" 'Its next month." "Oh dear. Let me get some rest and I will help out is that ok?" "Yes sure."

Koda watched as Talia went to her room. He had noticed she had been acting strange and decided to tell Jay. "Jay." "Yes Koda what is it?" "Its Talia. She's been acting strange since we left the village. We might want to check on her." "Ok thanks." He handed Aria to her maid and they left to check on Talia.

When the went in the room they saw Talia sweating really bad. "Talia. Its me Koda. Can you hear me?" She couldn't wake up but she nodded her head. "Ok good. I'm going to ask some yes or no questions. I need you to answer them truthfully. OK?" She agreed. "Are you scared?" Yes she nodded. "Your going to be ok your husband has your hand. Ok Did you look anyone completely in the eye or look back and someone?" She nodded yes. "OK. Was it an adult?" She shook her head no. "Ok so it was a child. Was it a boy?" She shook her head yes. Then he thought for a minute of who it could be. Then he remembered of a half fox that was emerald green. "Was he like an emerald green?" She shook her head yes. "Ok I might be able to lessen your symptoms enough to wake you. Don't worry I won't hurt you." He took to crystal off his neck and shone the light on her. Then she slowly woke up.

"Koda." "Your ok for now." "Ha…Ha.." "Are you ok Talia?" said Jay worriedly. "Yes I'm fine Jay. Koda can you tell me what happened to me?" "I can try. If its that little Emerald half fox boy I only know a little." "Wait a second. What do you mean half fox? What is the other half?" "Oh that's right you don't know." "There was a time way back that a fox mated with a human. So now there are half humans half foxes. Now as for what happened to you like I said I know a little. The boy is 8 years old. His name is Cyan. He might not have done what he did on purpose. Once he focuses on something without knowing something happens. Do you mind if I touch your head?" "No sure go ahead." Koda touched her head to see if he could do anything. After awhile he let go and nodded in a yes mode. "Ok I figured it out now. I will be able to help you. I've done it before but I didn't know he did this. I need to have a little talk with that boy. You have to promise to do what I say ok?" "Yes of course I will." "Ok good. I need you to go about your day as nothing happened. The only difference is you have to be careful not to get frustrated or angry for at least a week. Then I will check on you again. Can you do that?" "I'I can try. What happens if I do? Will I loose control?" "Something like that. You will look like you are possessed until you have calmed down." "Oh I see. Thanks for letting me know." "Why don't you get some rest." "Yeah thanks."

I finally rested after an hour and a half. Then I woke up and looked at the time. "Ok let me get changed and help out like I promised." I said to myself. I cleaned myself up and redid my hair and headed out.

"Oh hello Arion. Are you helping out with the ball?" "Actually they don't give me much only simple things. I'm here if someone gets injured. How are you feeling Mom?" "I'm feeling much better now that I rested a bit. Is there anything I can do to help?" "I don't know. The King is in his office doing some paperwork." "Ok thanks Arion." "Sure." So I headed towards the kings Office.

"I need to see the King." "Yes of course." Said one of the guards. Then they announced me and I went in and sat down. "Hello uncle." "Oh Talia welcome what can I do for you?" "I came here to see if I can do anything to help out with the ball." "Well if there is anything ask your husband. He probably can use your help. He is in the ball room at the moment. Is that all you need to see me about?" I hate he can read me like a book. I said to myself. "Am I that readable?" I chuckled. "Most of the time yes." "Sigh. Ok no that's not all." He nodded. Then I told him about the fox situation I was worried about. "Is that what's wrong? Oh then that's not a problem. If you are worried about that I have someone you should meet. He should be back tomorrow. Until then go to your husband and enjoy yourself ok?" "Thanks uncle." "Sure." So I left his office and headed towards the ball room.

I entered the ballroom and spotted Jay right away. I gave him a kiss on the cheek and scared him a little. "Oh Talia you scared me. How was your nap?" "It was fine. I got done talking to the king just now. He told me to ask you if you needed any help here." "I see. If you're here he must be giving me a break." "Hehe is that so? Then lets make the most of it." We headed to our bedroom.

We took a relaxing shower together then headed to bed. "Are you sure your not too tired Jay?" "Never too tried for you." Then we made out and did the deed. After about an hour we were done. He helped me to the tub and we both got in and he helped me clean up. Once we were done I got dressed we relaxed a bit longer and headed back out. Then I helped him for what he had left to do for the day.

I found my baby girl Aria. "Hey baby girl. You being good for the maids?" "Yes mommy." "Haha I hope so." I picked her up and hugged and kissed her. "Lets go for a ride on the horsey. How does that sound?" "Yay horsey." "I rided with mommy?" "Yes you can ride with mommy. Daddy are you coming too?" I asked. "Yes I will be coming too." I got on my horse and Jay picked the little one up and gave her to me I put her in front of me so she didn't fall off. "Where are we riding too Talia?" "Hmm. Good question. Uh lets go visit fawns mom." "OK lets go." So we galloped side by side.

Finally we got the fawns grandma and mothers house. We knocked on the door. (Knock Knock) "Who is it?" A woman who I was assuming was Fawns mother. "Its Princess Talia May we come in?" She ran to the door and opened it up. "Welcome. Come on in." "OK thanks. Jay take Aria in I'll tell the horses something." "Ok have fun." "Hello there. You both know to stay here right?" "Yes Princess." said her horse tiredly since they were old as well. Then I talked a bit to them and headed inside.

"Hello sorry I'm a bit late coming in." "Mommy!" "Hey baby girl. So I heard about your mother I'm sorry." "Its ok she was old. I'm ok too. As you know today is the anniversary of Fawns death." "Yes that is why I came over too. Also to visit of course." "Of course. We haven't seen each other since you moved in." "Yeah about that did you hear about the ball?" "Yes of course. I got an invitation." "Will you be able to come?" "I will do my best. Since my mother past I have been alone." "I see. I have an idea. There are two options. My mother Eve has a guest .house no one is using or you can live in the castle I can talk to my uncle since he is King." "I see. Well if it won't bother her I'd like to take the guest house." "OK want to talk to my mom now?" "Sure let me go get my horse."

We rode off to moms house. Then after awhile we finally got there. "Hello mom. Oh hey brothers where is dad?" "He will be back in a bit. Hello. You must be Fawns mother." "Yes I am." "Well my name is Eve and these are my kids Talia you know then I have Indigo and Derion." "Nice to meet you both." "Let me show you where the guest house is." I went with mom to show her the guest house. We went in and mom gave her a tour. "Thank you for letting me stay here." "Oh no problem thanks for taking care of my little girl." "Your welcome." "Ok well you are welcome to have meals with us if you would like. We always have extra anyway." "Thank you." So she got situated. Then we headed back to the house where Jay and Aria were. "Brothers are you going to the ball?" "Hey sis." Said Indigo. "I'll be taking my girlfriend. As for Derion here he has no date." "Haha." "Hey don't make fun. I have an Idea. I'll be right back. Mom Jay stay here I have somewhere I have to be." I left the house on my own to meet an old friend.

I knocked on the door. (Knock Knock) "Who is it?" Said a deep voice which was my friends father. "Its Talia." I heard quick footsteps and he opened the door. "Hello Talia good to see you again." "Yes likewise sir. Is your daughter home?" "Yes actually perfect timing. She's crying cause she doesn't have a date to the ball." "Perfect timing then. I have a brother close to her age who also needs one that is what I came to talk to her about if that's ok." "Is it Derion?" "You guessed it." "Well he is a hardworking man. They would be great if they could get close at the ball and date." "Haha that would be a miracle." "OK go ahead then." I went to the girls room.

I went in without knocking. Saw the poor girl in tears. "Hello Lily." "Oh Talia. What are you doing here?" I gave her my handkerchief and she wiped her eyes with it. "Thanks. I take it dad told you?" "Yes I have a solution for it. You know my brother Derion right?" I saw her blush. "Of course how could I forget. He told me there was someone special to him he had to go see." "Oh sorry about that he wasn't talking about a girlfriend. It was me he was talking about. He is a single man." "So that is why he tried to stop me. I got him all wrong I'm embarrassed now to face him." "Haha don't worry about it. By the way would you like to be his date to the ball?" I saw her blush again. "Will he want me after the misunderstanding?" "Haha of course he will. What color is your dress?" "Its blue and purple." "Can you show me?" "Sure." She pulled out her dress it was as gorgeous purple Aline dress off the shoulder similar to sleeping beauty's dress. "Ok cool. I have a plan. In a few days I am going to arrange a meeting place for you and keep it a surprise for my brother." "Ok." She said nervously. "Well that is all I came to talk about now I have to go see that wierdo of a brother I will give you a call with what I decided. Keep your schedule open for next week ok?" "That soon?" "Yes." She nodded. "OK then I will talk later." Then I got up and said goodbye to her dad and left back for my house.

I got back home and said Derion and Jay come with me. Mom can you watch Aria for me for a couple of hours?" "Of course." She looked at me questionably. I smiled at her and she knew what was up. "Derion get your horse Jay you too."

Once they got on their horses I said, "Ok Boys follow me." They gave me a questionable look but listened to me. So they followed.

We finally got to our destination and Derion was shocked. "Sis why are we here? I don't even have a date." "Oh don't worry about that I have arranged it." "What do you mean?" "You will find out next week so keep your schedule free." "OK?" He said weirdly. Then I smiled and he saw it. "You are up to something. I know that look." "Maybe I am and maybe I'm not you will find out." Once we went in I asked Derion. "What do you think of the color purple would you wear it in a tie?" "Yeah I don't see why not." "Jay this is the color purple I need him to wear. It has to be a bowtie. Help him find an outfit for the ball. I have some business to take care of." "Yes of course. Ok Derion this way."

Once I was done with my business I went inside in time to see Derion walk out in his handsome suit. "Wow Derion. You look pretty handsome. She will definitely fall head over heals for you in that. What do you think Jay?" "I agree this is the one as well." Poor Derion was relived. He had tried on so many suits and bowties. "Now I know how tired girls get trying on dresses except they have more that go into it." said Derion . "SO true Derion." I said. "Ok now lets check out and get back home." I said hurriedly. So we got on our horses and headed for home.

We got home and put our horses away and went inside. I sat at the table and wrote a letter and had a messenger bird send it to Lily. Then not long after I got one back. "OK done deal. Derion I need to talk to you alone please." "Yeah sure sis." So we went out back and talked.

"OK so next Wednesday, I have somewhere to be. I need to do some business. I need you to come with me." "Ar-Are you sure?" "Yes I'm sure. Be ready by noon. Oh and dress casual but nice." "Ok sure I'll be ready then."
