A/N: Got the idea for this really fast, just want to go with it. This is the point in the ballroom after Giselle and Robert's dance. Delve into her thoughts and her decision to take the apple!
It was heart wrenching, watching Robert and Nancy waltz around the dance floor. She had a soft smile on her face and the look she was sending him….It was like a slap in the face, a horrible unwelcome wakeup call.
I had always thought that love was forever and that everyone did get happy endings.
But I was wrong.
I had once thought I could be happy with Edward, he was everything I could have ever wanted in my prince. But then I meet Robert…
Robert infuriated me; he was so blind to all that happiness in the world. He never sang or danced, and he didn't believe in happily ever after.
Edward was cheerful, and happy, he wasn't afraid to show his love for me, and he didn't just believe in happily ever after. He lived it.
It should have been an easy choice, the man who always ended up making me confused and upset when I finished talking with him. Or the man that was the other half of my heart, and the person made to finish my duet.
My prince.
But somehow Robert opened my eyes and for the first time actually made me see the world. True, sometimes he wasn't very kind about it, but he got his point across.
Deep in my heart I knew that Edward couldn't give me what I need, and Robert could. But there was Nancy.
I knew love, I'd dreamed about it all my life, and waited for it. Nancy was just another person looking for true love, to love and be loved in return. She really did love Robert that much I could see.
I wouldn't, couldn't be so cruel as to snatch that away from her.
So I turned away, tried to be happy for Robert and to be happy for myself. I would get everything dreamed about, even though it wasn't what I really wanted.
Then the old hag came said that she could take it away, the indecision, hurt, pain, and loss that assaulted me from all sides.
I was foolish, I did want all the things that had happened to me to fade away, all the bad things to disappear.
I wanted my happily ever after.
So I took the apple, and bit into it tasting the sweet crispy taste, I swallowed.
A jot, evil cackling, and I gave way into dizzying blackness.
My happily ever after sure was different than I thought it would be.
A/N: And scene! Hope you enjoyed, give me some feedback on this. Till next time!
Sassmaster over and out!
