Thread: Miracles Can Always Happen (Yuna & CaptainPeriwinkle's 1x1)

Elaine Davidson Even without looking back, Elaine's head seemed to remember what time it was. That had nearly made her rush, not wishing to be late. She refused, however, and managed to keep her hands steady. The work was too delicate to go from her calm pace to a hasty one. She needed to keep her concentration on the here and now. You won't be late. she repeated softly to herself, feeling her heart race in anticipation. Each time the needle went through the fabric, Elaine knew she was moments away from being able to adorn her body with the dress. She never bragged on things she did, although many of her customers suggested she should more. Still, Elaine did have a lot of pride in her crafting and it showed in her work. The sewing continued for what felt like forever before finally ... she was finished. Yes! she cried out happily, quickly standing up to her feet and removing it carefully from the dress rack. She first held it up to her body before taking it with her into a nearby dressing room. Elaine had been in a comfortable blouse and skirt since waking up in the morning. Now, however, things were about to be different. One by one, the clothes that had covered her skin were removed and placed over the door of the changing room. Soon, she was in naught but a bra and pair of panties. Elaine glanced down at herself and swallowed nervously. .. Here goes everything and nothing ... she mused softly, pulling it over her and gently smoothing it out. A content and proud smile crossed her face as she looked at her reflection, seeing herself in her new dress. It wasn't nearly as fancy as anyone higher in rank than herself. But it would more than suffice at least in Elaine's eyes. After looking herself over for a few more moments, she then headed into her room and grabbed a matching pair of slippers, placing them on her feet. Dear gods, this is real! This is really happening! She couldn't help but let soft, happy giggles pass her lips. Finally, she was about to attend one of the most famous events in ... quite a while. Even if nothing overly spectacular between herself and anyone else there happened, it was still a change of pace and one that Elaine desperately needed. Now the main problem how to get there. Walking seemed foolish. But would it really be worth trying to use a carriage? She mulled this over as she grabbed a silver mask with a sapphire set into the middle of it. She'd swallow her pride and arrange for a mode of transportation to take her there. After some quick calculations, Elaine grabbed enough money - which was more than she desired - and held it firmly in her hands. Thankfully, a few things had remained the same during the change back to the Medieval era. Certain inventions had been kept in place. One had been the phone. Normal ones, mind you. But that was fine with her. She had never been overly fond of cell phones in the first place. After calling for a carriage, she headed out to the front door. Her mask remained in her hand as Elaine found herself playing the waiting game. Each minute that passed made her heart continue to pound in her chest. This was one of the most anxious and exciting days of her life so far. The real emotions, however, would arrive once she did at the party.
