I gave Sunset a friendly smack on the back when she stepped on my toes for the hundredth time. I should have switched her and Sunflower around. As we modeled through various poses, Sunset got lost in her excitement and kept forgetting she couldn't stand right on top of me as she attempted whatever new position she concocted. If I wasn't careful, my feet definitely weren't going to last me through the night. Sunset gave me yet another amused, apologetic grin before backing up and turning to face the camera Eden had pointed our way. The device that hadn't been touched since I tried to take a picture when I turned white was finally getting a moment to shine.

Besides being mildly annoyed with Sunset, I was also getting irritated with my brother as well. He had been into preparing me for homecoming as much as I had been into it. However, now that the date was here he kept teasingly slowing us down because he didn't want to see me go off and attend my first "big girl" dance, as he liked to call it. Eden had done everything from practically locking himself in the bathroom so I couldn't get ready to seriously hiding my dress and making me go on a scavenger hunt to find it. Now he was fiddling with the camera far beyond what he needed to do to take the shot.
"Eden. We can't hold these smiles forever. Stop being a prick and take the picture." I commanded.
"I can't take your words seriously when you say them while smiling so widely." he chuckled in response.
"Well, you had better take me seriously before I give you a reason to stop your own stupid smiling."
"I'm sorry," Eden laughed harder, "This is too good- having you threaten me when you look so happy. I'm thoroughly enjoying myself."
"You won't be if you don't take that picture in five seconds."
"Ah, sibling love." Sunflower mused wistfully.
"If you think this is something, you should see me and Vermillion have a go." Sunset added merrily.
"You have one second, Eden." I warned again.
With a roll of his eyes, he lifted the camera up and took the picture.

Eden took several more pictures of the three of us without complication, and Sunset managed to avoid my feet for the rest of the time. It was then that we decided we had enough pictures of our particular group. It was time to switch things up. Eden hadn't been pleased about it at first, but our house had been chosen as the house where me and my friends met up to take pictures before we left for the dance. Amaranth, Cocoa, Allium, and Frost were waiting off to the side just out of the way. I tried to follow Sunset and Sunflower so that someone else could have their turn for pictures, but Allium instantly rushed over and wrapped his arms around me to hold me in place.
"Finally! It's our turn. Snap away, big bro!"
A big frown instantly appeared on Eden's face, and he made no attempt to take a picture. Entertained by this, I smiled brighter than I had at any point during that day.
"C'mon, Eden. You've got to take pictures of us a couple at some point. Might as well get it over with." I teased.
"You know, I'm still not sure about this whole thing." Eden mumbled as he did reluctantly raise the camera to snap a shot.
"You had no problem with me and Sap." I pointed out.
"I had some warning that you two might happen. You two," he pointed to me and Allium, "Came out of nowhere. Besides, I trust Sap to be more responsible with you than this guy here."
"Oh, please! How can you even say that after what happened?"
"You know what kind of responsible I mean."
"You mean you trust Sap not to sleep with Meadow while you think I'll jump up her skirt the first chance I get." Allium said cheerfully.
Our friends burst out into laughter, me included, while Allium received a death glare from Eden.
"Just clarifying it in case anyone was confused." Allium shrugged, still wearing his goofy grin.
Eden's expression didn't waver, but Allium wasn't the kind to back down. He had the two of us shift into a slightly different position to signify that we were ready for another picture.
"Hand higher." Eden demanded.
In typical Allium fashion, he lowered his hand down my waist instead. That sent everyone off into a fit of laughter again. I began to fear that Eden's intense glare might actually kill my boyfriend, but he did go ahead and take the picture.
"Next!" he called for someone else right after.
