Eliza POV

It's the night of the party and I have no idea what I'm going to wear.

Julie came over to help me get ready. She brought a massive garment bag, "In case you have nothing to wear." she said.

Honestly, I'm kind of happy she brought me something. If she hadn't I have no idea what I would do.

At around 4:40 I finished doing my hair. I put half of it up in a bun, letting the rest cascade down my back in loose curls.

Truthfully, I called Julie here because I didn't want to attempt at doing my makeup. I knew I would mess it up and that Julie would never.

"So I think I wanna do a brown smokey eye with a gold tone on the inner corner to like the middle. With a winged liner." she says as she pulls out the things she will need.

"Whatever you think will go best with the dress." I shrug, allowing her to do what she pleases.

"Are you excited?" she asks as she applied my foundation.

"A little, I've never been to a gala." I laughed, so did she. "I'm more nervous though, I really hope Gemma will be there. Just so I know more than Harry."

"Yeah that makes sense. So you got along with his family pretty well then?" she smiles.

I nod my head, not being able to stop smiling myself. "Yeah, I think so. Harry said they like me so I can only hope he was telling the truth."

"I'm sure they loved you Liz. Don't sweat about meeting his dad, you'll do fine." she assures before continuing with the makeup.

"Okay, I'm done."

I look in the mirror and I am thoroughly impressed. "Thanks Juls." She smiles.

I look at the clock on my bedside table to see its almost 6:30. Harry said he'd be here by 7:00, and he is rarely late.

"I need to get dressed." I say as I get up and walk over to the hanging garment bag.

I unzip it to find a gorgeous red evening gown. The bodice is a lace appliqué with a v-neckline. It goes over my shoulders but it doesn't have sleeves, which I love. From the waist down the dress falls beautifully with a small pleat from the waist and down a few inches.

"Julie this is amazing." I say in awe. I never would have expected that she would bring me this.

"Go put it on!"
