Emory, you’re one of the most fascinating people I’ve ever encountered. Hearing about your life adventures, your passions, your goals, it’s all so interesting and I feel quite honored to have become your friend. Even before I knew your true identity, you instantly caught my eye and I knew I just had to find out more about you. You’re incredibly beautiful and even though I’m aware we wouldn’t work at this point, I’m glad that you’re happy with Bash. I’m glad to have you to help me get through living here and all.
Emory, you’re very smart, and you’re growing on me more and more each day. I know we have our differences, but you certainly know how to keep things exciting, and I do admire your general coolness.

NOTES → Emory invites Rich and Yael to her house to plan outfits for the dance.
Em had waited for Rich and Yeal out front of the school in her black BMW. The minute she saw them she opened the passenger door for one of them to hope inside.
Yael: The bell rang and Yael quickly packed up her things and headed to the front of the school. Seeing Em and the ride she got inside and the pair waited for Rich.
Rich pushed open the doors that led outside, quickly spotting the two girls waving at him. He bounded towards the car, climbing inside. "Hey mates, thanks again for the ride Em," he greeted with a smile.
Yael: smiled back. "Are you excited?" she asked, biting the corner of her lip.The BMW left the school parking lot and headed Emory's house.
Rich shrugged at Yael's question. "Honestly not really, how exciting can a school dance be?" He wouldn't admit it, but he was a bit nervous going on his first "date" since his break-up with Grace. "This whole thing is sort of strange."
Em smiled the minute the pair was in the car. "No problem." She smiled and started to drive to her house letting the two pick the music. When they got to her house she pushed a button to open the garage and carefully parked it next to her Rlls Royce that still had a giant bow on it, then lead them inside. "We have to go through the kitchen" she informed and walked into her livingroom that was made into a store with dresses, purses, shoes, suits, and ties. "Everything is name brand. Gucci, Versace, Calvin Kline, and he,
Yael: "I guess. I meant are you excited about going to Em's house?" she restated her question.
Yael: followed Emory through the house, slowly nodding as she listed all the brand names. Yael recognized names but not being one to follow fashion, she didn't really know what they meant.
Rich attempted to select one the songs from Emory's tracklist as he listened to Yael's question. "Oh, right. Yeah, totally, from what I hear it's a pretty cool place?" He grinned, finally choosing a song that happened to be one from Emory's group. Once they arrived he followed the girls out of the car and into the garage, glancing around at the car and the stuff stored in the garage. "Wow, nice wheels for sure," He pointed out. When they entered the house, he exchanged a look with Yael, not completely sure about the brand names either. "A few sound familiar, but I'm not too picky. As long as it's black," He stated with a small chuckle.
Yael: smiled and rolled her eyes at Rich's comment. She walked over to the racks of clothes unsure of what where to begin. She had shopped in department stores, "Any recommendations?"
Em listened to her friends mention not knowing anything. "Rich if anyone asks who you're wearing tell them Armoni, they'll know. Same with you, Yael just tell them who made your dress after we pick one out." She assured and walked over to a rack of clothes. "Any that you like. I mean I like, but I think Ralph Lauren would suit you more." She said holding up a royal blue dress up for her. It would hug her curves in all the right places. "What about this one? Would you wear it?" She asked looking at Yael
Yael: examined the dress as Emory held it up, "I'll try it on, but I'm not sure about the color. I'm not sure if I'm ready to look like a firecracker popsicle." she grabbed the dress and looked around for a place to change, "Um, where should I change?"
Em had realized that she never showed Yael where the restroom was and looked around for a moment. "Here." She said opening a door to an empty room. "I haven't figured out what i want it to be' she stated honestly and looked at Rich. "Do you mean everything black, shirt, tie, pants, shoes, jacket?" She asked looking at him.
Yael: Yael headed upstairs to change while Em and Rich continued their discussion.
Rich: raised an eyebrow, unsure of what Armani was exactly, but he simply nodded and smiled. "Alright, easy enough." He followed Emory to the rack of clothing and glanced through the selections as she showed Yael a few options. Letting out a chuckle at Yael's comment, he nudged her. "If you were in America and it were fourth of July, it'd be quite the ideal look too." He turned back to Emory as Yael headed to change. "I'd prefer as much black as possible but Winnie has requested that I have a lavender tie," he stated with an eyeroll. "If you don't have that though, don't worry about it."
Em listened to Rich and looked at her assistant only to be given a stern look. "There is a dark red besides...." She said holding it. "No offense thou.gh, but I wouldn't let you wear a lavender tie. Dressing you is like dressing the boys for concerts, if you wear lavender you'll look gayer than I am and let me tell you, no one wants that." Her assistant pointed out as she held a deep red tie up to his black suit and it matched perfectly. "Besides Winnie doesn't deserve to be your date, she's not good enough for you." She added. "Em, we don't mingle in someone else's love life." Michele said. "We don't like her, she makes fun of Yael and he's only going with her to get info our of her." She stated. "Drar Lord, I told them kids get bullied in high school. If she hits you and leaves a mark, makeup can't cover swelling. You have a Skype interview, they will ask and all hell will break loose. You'll be pulled from school the minute your parents see you and they will sue." He stated and Emory sighed as she rummaged through dresses and found a better one for Yael.
Rich found himself sighing in relief at the sight of the dark red tie. He was glad to have an excuse to not have to wear the lavender tie, though he also hoped he wouldn't have to deal with any wrath from Winnie because of it. If she asked, he'd just say that there wasn't one available, which seemed to be true. He chuckled at the assistant's comment, nodding. "I'll go with that one." Hearing Emory defend Rich against going with Winnie, a smile formed on his face, her words helping to boost his ego a bit. "Ah, right, well I don't think she knows what you two know...we should be just fine," he assured her. At the idea of Winnie hitting Emory or himself, he cringed, shaking his head again. "Yeah, no, I'll make sure that doesn't happen." He gave Emory a grin. "I'll bet her bark is worse than her bite. I'll take it easy and see if I can figure out what's got her so riled up about Yael in the first place."
Em listened to Rich and smiled. "If she tries anything I'll insult her." She said honestly. "Girl, if you do that make sure you be
Em bring aloe because the girl will get burned. Oh, if she tells you to go die tell her if you wanted to commit suicide you'll climb up her ego and jump down to her IQ level" Michele suggested. "No she's more focused on looks so I'll just tell her she's so ugly Hello Kitty told her goodbye." Em stated and smiled at Rich. "I have better insults if that doesnt work." She assured
Rich: couldn't help but snicker at the comments being made but he shook his head. "Let's just try to keep all the insults to a minimum for now, if she thinks something is up early on then she's not going to tell us anything." He placed a hand on Emory's shoulder. "Think you can hold off until after the dance?"
Em looked at Rich when he asked her to hold off. "I can hold off until she messes with Yael in front of me. Then she's got another thing coming to her." She stated.
Yael: Yael came back downstairs in the blue dress, "What do you think? Personally, I think I might look better in a black dress." She paced back and turing around once as waited for feedback.
Rich: turned around to see Yael entering the room. His eyes scanned over her ensemble, biting his lip as he gathered an opinion. "I think it looks nice. But black is cool too, whatever you're feeling mate."
Em looked at Yael aand handed her a cute black dress with a red ribbon in the middle. "This screams Yael more" she said homestly and showed Yael.
Yael: "Thanks." Yael said before seeing the dress Emory held up. "Yes, that does. I'll go try it on." she grabbed the dress and went back upstairs to try it on.
Yael: came back downstairs after trying on the dress, "I think this is the one I'll wear to the dance. Rich, any progress on finding your outfit?"
Rich: nodded his approval before lifting up the red tie that Emory had given him. "Black suit, red tie, seems simple enough. Lavender's not for me anyway," he added with a chuckle.
Yael: "You in lavender?" Yael held back a laugh as she pictured Rich in pastels, "Is it that the color of Little Miss Voldemort's dress?"
Rich rolled his eyes and snickered at Yael's comment. "If that's what you're calling her now, yes. If I'm lucky she won't have a freak out over the color of my tie."
Yael: "I have lots of names for her." she laughed. "Oh, she will...but," Yael paused to think, "yeah I have no idea how to get you out of wearing a lavender tie."
Em looked at Yael, "We don't have one." She said letting her know about the tie.
Rich: sighed in relief and chuckled. "I'm not too worried. She'll deal one way or another," he said with a shrug.
Yael: didn't know whether to find Rich's confidence when it comes to dealing with Winnie, admirable or idiotic. "I guess."
Em looked at Yael and smiled. "Besides, he has us to back him up." she assured and looked at her assistant. "Michele, when you go back to New York, but me things from Sex Trash?" she asked curiously. "Of course, is there a guy in the future?" he asked her and she shrugged. "I don't know what I'm feeling, but we're friends right now. It's mainly for tours." she admitted and gave him a gift card. "It's reload-able so make sure to send it here before it runs out, then I'll reload it." she assured and looked at dresses for herself for a moment. "Yael, there are purses if you want one." she offered.
Yael: "Yeah, if there's a small one I'll take it." Yael said accepting Em's offer. She went back upstair to change into her usual jeans and sweater, coming back down she began to look at the purses.
Rich: glanced at the rest of the racks of clothes for a while, still pretty impressed by the supply. "This is pretty sick. I'm guessing you hardly ever wear the same thing twice?" He asked Emory curiously.
Em looked at Rich. "No the clothes I buy I'll wear more than once, the clothes in the music videos are on loan. I'll wear it, the place I got the dress from will take it back and hold it, wait a while and sell it at an auction or Ebay." she said honestly. "I just have one dress from Sex Trash and it's one of my favorites. They were supposed to get it back, but I bought it." she admitted. "These are from Michele, he gets free clothes since his parents own a clothing store, but they don't sell anything like this so he keeps them for friends." she explained.
