Beside me, I felt around the bed to find James gone, in his place was a note.

Hey Bloom,

Oh, so that's where he went.

I decided to get out of bed to get ready.

I took a fairly short shower before changing into a short, frilled black dress. Paired with brown lace up boots that come to just below my knees.
