Instead of working on one of my two stories, I wrote this. Go figure.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Clique characters or any fairytales. Except Sleeping Alpha. ;)


Nikki Dalton never liked fairytales.

She would never be the gorgeous blonde, the girl who the prince falls in love with. The girl with the fairy godmother, someone to help her through the rough patches. The girl could talk to animals and sing like an angel, who shows up at glamorous balls unannounced wearing elaborate gowns and glass slippers. The girl who always had a happily ever after, the girl who always had her true love's first kiss.

No matter how many stars she wished on, or how many pennies she threw in fountains, Nikki's role never changed. She was always the evil stepsister, the villain who everyone dislikes. The jealous one who fails to steal the prince from her stepsister, the girl who is rude to everyone she knows. The girl who has warts on her nose and wears frumpy, unattractive clothing. The girl who, in the end, gets her heart broken by Prince Charming, the one and only Cam Fisher.

For once, Nikki wanted her own happy ending.


Review, please. :)
