Today is a special today for the Republic. The Jedi Order have agreed to host a Ball as a congratulations to all the Legions for their hard work and victories in the great Seperatist war. Many casualties have taken place along the way however a certain Jedi thought it would be great if a ceremony was held to acknowledge what has been achieved over the last year. The Council pondered about the idea for quite some time causing it to be a rumour until last week when an announcement was made confirming it.. There are to be no dirty clone armour or boring Jedi robes in sight. All must dress formally and celebrate a new day.
Thats where y/n realised she messed up. Dressing up? not her thing. She was so used to her purple robes and fancy boots she didn't consider what would change tonight. This caused an emotional disaster.
Y/n sat on the floor of her bedroom with her head in her hands. She had never felt more defeated from being a 21 year old Jedi who has never owned or worn a dress in her life. There is only 2 hours until the party starts and that is nowhere near enough time for the Jedi to find something in one of the markets near her apartment. The frustration of this disaster could have caused steam to leave y/n's ears until the sound knocking could be heard. A small golden astromech named R6 came speeding into y/n's room to alert her of the visitor and so she pushed herself up from the floor to see who it is.
"Padmè? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be getting ready for the party?" Padmè nodded with a wide smile before pushing past me into my lounge with a suitcase? I closed the door behind her and followed her to where she sat to see what's going on.
"We've been best friends since you were a padawan and not once have we partied together so if you thought we weren't going to get ready together before the ball then you are wrong" Padmè was beaming as she unzipped her pink suitcase which had had 5 completely different dresses inside.
"Uh ok sure but why so many dresses?" I asked inspecting each one. There was a black, purple, yellow, red and grey one.
"Well I knew you forgot to find something to wear so I came prepared. Now here are the dresses I picked that you might like. Go and try them on" Padmè then shoo'd me into my bedroom to pick out which one suited me best. Each dress was gorgeous and fit me perfectly however I've never been one for bright colours or fancy things unless it was my Jedi robes so I settled on a black, off the shoulder dress with a slit for my leg.

I must admit it took me a while to figure out how to put it on, however, once I managed to zip it up I was extremely impressed with how I looked. I felt like a girl again. I left my bedroom to show Padmè and my little astromech who both squealed nd cheered when they saw the dress. I gave them a twirl before helping Padmè with her dress and our makeup. Padmè went simple but insisted I went all out with makeup. I put on Smokey eyeshadow and red lipstick to match the dress. According to R6 I looked like a heartbreaker whatever that means.
