(whattt two chapters in one night. thank you guys so much for your support and i hope you enjoy the story. have an amazing night. don't forget to eat, drink water, and get some rest. thank you once again!!))

I began to get ready, Scaramouche let me use the bathroom before him. He claims I always take longer than him. I stepped in the shower and felt the warm water run down my body. It felt so comforting and warm. I then proceeded to wash my hair and clean myself. Once I was done I stepped out the bathroom with a tower wrapped around both my body and head. Scaramouche saw me as I glided across the room to find the dress there in the closet. I felt Scara's eyes burn through me as I walked back. I couldn't help but blush knowing he was watching me. Keep it together Y/N, I told myself.

I got put the dress on and it fit beautiful, I'm so happy we ended up choosing this one. I then did my hair how I usually did for big events. Once I finished I applied some light makeup, not too much, just the right amount. Finally I left the bathroom so Scara could get ready. The final touches to my outfit could be done outside.

"The bathroom is ready, Scara." I said as I sat down on the bed. I didn't lay down because I didn't want to ruin my dress. As I waited for Scaramouche to get ready I put on the necklace he got me. It complimented the dress beautifully. Scaramouche was right, he was faster than me especially in getting ready. It took him about 15 minutes to be fully ready.

"Alright Y/N, are you ready?" Scaramouche questioned.

"Yup!" I said, putting on my heels.

Scaramouche reached out his hand for mine and I took it. The two of us walked to the event location. As we walked I analyzed every detail of his outfit. His suit was a very dark purple, almost black. The way our outfits complimented each other was amazing. It just flowed so well. It took us about 7 minutes to get to the event. We were asked to show our invitations and Scara showed both of ours. Once we were let in I was greeted by a beautiful room. I think my mouth opened in awe from how pretty the room was. As more people entered the more I wanted to stay near Scaramouche. I knew absolutely no one. Scara took charge as he guided me and introduced me to guests. Every time he would make conversation he would ask about a traveler. So far all the conversations had given us no information on where the traveler was headed to next or what their name was.

The event was sort of a ball but more modern. I didn't bother asking. There were different activities such as wine tasting and there was going to be a dance pretty soon. I was a little nervous because I wasn't the best dancer, however I doubt Scara would even want to dance. For most of the night, I was just there silent not saying much. I didn't know what to say. Finally it was time for the dance.

"Hey Y/N, may I have this dance?" Scaramouche asked his eyes making direct contact with mine.

"Yes" I said rapidly. Wow he asked, part of me was stunned while the other part was nervous. Scaramouche guided me to the floor and out his hands around my waist, while I put mine on his shoulders. The two of us swayed to the music that was playing. It was sort of romantic, if you exclude me missing you from time to time. To my suprise Scaramouche was good at dancing, or at least he did not make any mistakes. The more we danced the more it felt as if it was just the two of us. We drowned everyone else out, it was just me and him.

"Y/N..." Scaramouche said, his grip tightening a little around my waist.

"Yes Scaramouche?" I asked.

Scaramouche's POV -

Today is the day, the day I will ask Y/N out. I decided against my better judgement to take a risk and ask her out at the ball today. I mean it is a pretty romantic place. At first I was nervous and when I saw Y/N completely ready in her dress I was even more nervous. She was beautiful. I took notice to her putting on the necklace I had gifted her, it looked gorgeous on her. The walk to the event was silent, I was still trying to figure out the right words of how to confess my feelings. I ended up coming to the conclusion of saying what I felt at that moment. No planning.

When we got there, I immediately began to socialise with other guests. I could not forget my main task of getting more information about this traveler. I noticed how Y/N did not talk as much as she did when it was just the two of us. Maybe she's nervous. Occasionally she'd say a thing or two but she never delve into a full conversation.

When the song changed I knew it would be a perfect time to ask her.

"Y/N, may I have this dance?" I asked her, offering my hand to her. I felt my heart pump full of anxiety. Y/N said yes and we danced. She would sometimes mess up but other than that she was perfect. We kept dancing until it was just us in our own little world. Now. I took a deep breathe...

"Y/N" I said, continuing to dance.

"Yes, Scaramouche?" She responded.

"Y/N since day one you've been a pain in the ass. However it's one of the many things I love about you. The way you care about me and stay with me, the way you remember every detail. It drives me crazy. A good crazy. So will you be my girlfriend, Y/N?" I said. This was it.

Y/N's POV -

He liked me. He really likes me. In that moment I felt like a school girl being told her crush liked her back. I was so happy and excitement.

"Yes, I would love to be your girlfriend." I said the words escaping my lips. After my answer Scaramouche kissed me. He kissed me full of passion and desire and wow, did I love it. We pulled away and I saw him with a full blown out smile. I couldn't help but smile back, I was full of joy.

"So, how about I go introduce you as my girlfriend?" he asked me and he held my hand and began walking.

"Sure." I responded still smiling.

By the end of the night two major things occurred. One me and Scaramouche were officially dating. Two we learned where the traveler was heading next. To a region called Sumeru.
