'Don't freak out... It's just a dress. You've worn a dress before...'
Adora's nerves were slowly getting the better of her as the afternoon progressed. Some of the secretaries had decided to take Adora under their wings in preparation for the party.
They'd done her hair up, put makeup on her - "just enough for some color," one of them said - and helped her into the dress.
Adora took a deep breath and nodded to the ladies as they huddled together to look at her. Turning toward the mirror, Adora's breath actually caught.
There was no way that was her reflection.

Adora Springer was known for not complaining, if she could help it, but she was damn cold inside the ballroom. Whether the draft was coming from the hallway, the open patio door or a cold wind had simply picked up, she felt like she was standing naked in a snowstorm.
All right, maybe it was more in her own mind, as no one else seemed to be cold at all.
'Snap out of it, Springer,' she scolded herself.
She heard Wyatt Cain's laugh before she saw him. Suddenly, she wasn't so cold.
Turning to face him, Adora found him.
Frozen.
