So this is a story about something in Flora that changes while at Alfea, making her do things that she will eventually regret for the rest of her life. This leads onto a new life for her, mostly without magic and having to deal with the thought of what could have been compared to her life as it is. In the end, she will ultimately be tested on her true loyalty of her friends. I wrote a dark Flora story a long time ago, and decided I wanted to do something again like it, but not the same exact thing. My main inspiration for this story was from the musical Wicked, when Glinda and Elphaba are best friends, but they can't be friends. The song "For Good" really inspired me too, and I wanted to write a story about how a winx girl basically turned evil, but not necessarily. Anyways, enjoy the story!
Chapter 1- The Pink Dress
Flora was feeling great as she packed her picnic basket. Helia had sent her a note saying he wanted to meet her in the park and she always loved getting together with Helia. He always made her feel special. Being in the Winx Club was great, but sometimes she felt over cast by the other girls. She knew that they loved her as a friend but Bloom always has problems with her powers and sky, Stella is loud and has problems with her planet or family, Musa is always mad about Riven, Layla goes on about her demanding parents, and Tecna seemed to be closer to the rest of the group that she was. But Helia made her feel very special. If she had to pick out one of the girls in the group, Flora thought she was the closest with Layla and she could talk to her a lot about things but now Layla is too worried about Nabu and marrying him.
"Flora! Whatcha doing?" Stella asked walking into Flora's part of the room she shared with Bloom.
"Oh I'm just packing a picnic for Helia and I, he and I are going on a walk in the park!" Flora responded.
"Sounds like it will be very romantic!" Stella said in her voice that you know she is going to get involved somehow. "May I suggest you wear this?" Stella said as she held up the small pink dress Stella wore once while singing on Solaria.
"But, that is your dress Stella!" Flora said, not sure what to say. She thought the dress was beautiful and it was just her color but she didn't normally wear things like that, especially around boys.
"I don't mind at all, you need to make Helia want you! And I'm positive he would want you in this dress! Plus it is your favorite color!" Stella said in a pleading way.
"I know it is, oh all right! I'll wear it, but can you do my hair for me? I want it curly like I had at the dance." Flora said giving in to Stella.
"Of course I would be happy to help! It is what I do best dahling" Stella said while going back into her room to get all of her makeover supplies. Flora sighed thinking about what Helia would think seeing her look that beautiful and she continued to put a few more snacks in the basket and slipped into the pink dress.
