A/N: Okay, So my last story (that wasn't a one-shot) idea left ya'll in the dust. I appologize. But now I'm back with a real humdinger. Most will probably hate this story, but hopefully, some will like it. Maybe even review?...Anyway, I hope you all enjoy it!
Disclaimer: I do not own "A Midsummer Night's Dream". That honor, unfortunatley, goes to Shakey Baby.
She stared at the face in front of her. It was his unearthly face. His naturally platinum blond hair was cut to just below his ears, and she could see his sparkling bright blue eyes through the holes of his white mask. His fair complexion was complemented by his green and white elevn garments.
All in all, he was heavenly; and she felt unworthy to even stand in his presence
She felt ugly, though she knew she was not. Even with her brown hair piled on her head in an elaborate bun, she felt plain. Her clothes, she felt, did not help her situation. While he was in angelic greens and whites, she was dressed in a dark blue and burgundy peasant dress. Even her blue mask, no matter how detailed, paled in comparison to his simple white one.
She felt plain; she felt unworthy; she felt...human, next to his magic.
He smiled at her and bowed. "How now, fair maiden!" She looked scathingly at him. "Call you me fair? Surely, thou jest?" He looked somewhat wounded and asked "Why would I fool the mortal I love best?" He looked around as a soft song drifted into his slightly pointed ears. "Would you, my lady, honor me with a dance?" She looked suspiciously at him. "You wouldn't be trying to seduce me, by chance? Trying to steal me anon, with your fairy ways; and keep me in your forest for the rest of my days?"
He looked at her and smiled. He started circling her, and she followed suit. "It would not be stealing. I believe, fair maiden, you would follow me, pleading. 'Oh please; good sir; oh please; good Fey! Let me with thou forever stay!' She huffed indignantly. "Thou thinkest thou knows me? Thou hasn't a clue!" He smiled gently and said "Quiet, dear mortal. Dance with me now is what thou must do!"
With those words, he swept her up into a waltz. They spun their way across the floor, each of them getting lost in the music. When the music died down, they stopped, and look up at each other, seemingly searching for answers in each other's eyes.
Ella Lewis and Andy Mathis then busted out laughing. The rest of the Halloween costume party clapped for them, some whistled, and one person even cat called. But this didn't faze the two friends. This charade of mortal and fairy was a tradition of Halloween. Still giggling uncontrollably, the walked back to their table. Sitting down, Ella looked at her best friend and smiled. He smiled back and said "Hey, maybe we should leave now. You know, exit with a bang? Oooh…." For a particularly buff waiter had just walked by "Speaking of "bang."…" "ANDY!" laughed Ella. "Sorry sweetie, but you know I can't resist myself!" Ella laughed once more and stood up, putting on her jacket. "I agree with the 'going home' scenario Andy. We need to get to my house. Otherwise, we won't be able to get through the whole movie!"
Andy put his own jacket on and sighed, wrapping his arm around his best friend. "Yeah…Man, what could be better? A quiet, Halloween night; with me, my best friend, and 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'? Life. Is. BEAUTIFUL!" For probably the thousandth time that night, Ella through her head back and laughed. Yes, even when her gay best friend was prettier than she, and when she hadn't had a boyfriend in months. Even then, life was indeed beautiful.
