(I'm vicariously excited for the ball through Kenzie. XD I really wanted to do a masquerade for my Sweet 16, but my b-day ended up being Superbowl Sunday that year, and then I was so sick that I didn't even care… Okay, no. That's a lie. I totally cared. I was so ticked that I was sick on my birthday. It sucked.)

(Ugh, I hate being sick on birthdays.)

(Yeah, I'm still pretty upset about it…)
Hunter sighed, shrugging.
“It’s the McArthur’s way,” Hunter responded. “When a heir reaches 18, they have no choice but to follow the rules, especially if it’s the heir’s first time. My father’s just power-hungry, so he’ll use whatever means necessary to flourish.” Hunter paused for a second. “And not necessarily. There’s one person that can provide assistance, but unfortunately, I don’t have that person yet.”
"Oh, really?" Kenzie asked, raising an eyebrow and crossing her arms as she looked at Hunter. "You don't?"
Despite the situation, Hunter smirked.
“Yeah, I don’t,” he said, his lips twisting up into a sly smirk. “So I just have to handle it myself.”
"Mm. I see," Kenzie said slowly, hiding the smile that threatened to show on her lips.
“Unfortunately,” Hunter nodded, rubbing his head. “It’s also a way for the heir to prove themselves. If they can’t manage to host something as simple as a masquerade ball, they aren’t fit to be a heir. But, failure’s worse than actually doing something.”
"So… Do you not want help, then?" Kenzie wondered, giving Hunter a curious look.
Hunter chuckled.
“You can’t help me, Kenzie,” he said, smiling a little. “Nobody can, except what I mentioned earlier.”
Kenzie stuck her lower lip out in a mock-pouting face.
"Who can help you, then?" she inquired, seriously curious about the only person who could help him.
“My wife,” Hunter replied casually, closing his eyes and resting his hands on the back of his head. “Which I don’t have yet. She will be the only one, other than me, who will have equal power and authority. The McArthur’s are crap, but we value our women a lot.” Hunter peeked an eye open to look at Kenzie. “But if you’re so willing to help…”
(I totally called it.
Also, I was totally going to correct you on your spelling, but I see that you've fixed it. XD Lol.)
"What?" Kenzie asked as she looked at Hunter curiously.

(Bweheheheheh)
(Is Kenzie actually clueless, or is she playing? XD)
Hunter smirked.
“If you’re so willing to help, does that mean you wouldn’t be so against in being my wife?”
(She's wary. I just realized that that's how I meant to write her look. Wary. Not curious. Lol. My brain just randomly decides to forget how to word things correctly sometimes…)

(Haha, I can totally understand xD)
(I'm just reading this whole thing and internally freaking out)
(I'm just reading this whole thing and internally freaking out)
(XD Kenzie is internally freaking out, too. She's just like, "The heck, Hunter?")
(But I also don't know how to have her react atm…)

(I'm just thinking… Okay, she's going to have the most Kenzie reaction ever.)

Kenzie blushed deeply and stuttered. She felt like he was just messing with her, but she couldn't always tell with Hunter.
