The week was - predictably - heck. Although I was very happy and giddy about learning, Hide and Hideaki just kept on coming up with new ideas and ways to humiliate me and Dragon.

That night when Hide messed with my white strands was the worst.. He kept pulling.. Owch.

In the end, he had decided to put me in pigtails. I don't know what Dragon looks like, but I look like a fool.

My ridiculous eyepatch covered my left eye, and my snow-white hair was messily put into tiny pigtails with red lace. I seriously don't know how Hide got my hair up there, but I know it happened with a lot of pulling.

For clothes, I had a blood-red dress that Hide said brought out my hair. I don't know how a dress could bring out my hair, especially considering my hair is already out of my body. I don't know.

I also had high heels that matched the dress. I couldn't walk well. I didn't have any socks on, so my bony feet were revealed for all to see.

I didn't feel comfortable.

As if that wasn't enough, Hide had even chosen a pair of underwear specifically for today. Honestly, I don't think they were new; I think they were Hide's. They were boxers with little white bunnies on them. The background was a baby blue.

And for whatever G*dd*mn reason, Hide didn't think one pair of underwear was enough, so he put some weird thong under it. It was black and VERY uncomfortable.

I swear..

He'd even put clip-on earrings on me.. More little d*mn bunnies. I had no idea why he was so obsessed with bunnies.

I glanced beside me, where Hide was messing with his hair. His lip was pursed in thought. He couldn't seem to get his hair right. He had a body mirror (which I was standing in front of) and a dresser with a mirror (which he was sitting at) moved to his room just for today. He had also strictly told the workers (maids and butlers?) here that he wanted them out of his room before he returned after the dance.

At least I wasn't the only one crossdressing, I guess..

Hide himself was adorned in a blue dress with sunflowers on it. He had dark blue high heels on. If I was being honest, I didn't like the high heels. But it wasn't my place to say so. He didn't have socks, just like me. His feet, however, were nice and smooth. He was messing with lace that had the same design as his dress. He must've decided to wear pigtails like me because there were two. I wasn't sure what he was wearing underneath since I hadn't been paying attention, but I didn't really care to know.

"...D-Do you need help, Hide?" I mumbled. The way he acted, I almost forgot that I was his slave, not his friend. That I had choices. That I could think for myself.

I can't.

"Huh?" he looked at me, "Oh, sure." I walked over and began messing with his hair. "Thanks, Ken."

"Don't thank me just yet. I'm not a hair stylist, you know."

"I'm sure you'll do just fine!" he grinned at me. I tried to be careful. While I wanted nothing more to make him feel the same burning sensation of having your hair pulled by an insolent kid who doesn't know what the f*ck he's doing, I didn't want to be reprimanded.

Eventually, I was able to take his hair into two tiny pigtails. It was much neater than my own.

"Whoa..!!" his face showed awe and amazement, "Dude, you are so good!!"

"..." I felt my cheeks heat up slightly. I didn't want to look in the mirror for fear of staring the fact that I was blushing right in the face. Hide stood up and turned around, holding out his arms.

"Well? Do I look good? Do I look SMASHING?"

I almost chuckled at the out-of-date word, but I replied like any slave should, "Y-Yeah. You look amazing, Hide."

Well, I guess it is kind of comforting to think of him as a girl rather than a guy.. With how he's.. implied things.

He winked and grinned, starting to walk out, "All right then! Let's go, dude!"

"..Hai.." I replied, following him. He had a tight grip on my new leash.

I.. do like the custom stuff he got at that ghoul store.. Although I certainly was not happy about.. the other stuff he got me.. at other stores..
