I know that I haven't written on my other stories for a while, but don't worry, I haven't forgotten about them. I have my spring break coming up soon and I'm hoping to get some more chapters posted then. Until then I thought of yet another story. Please let me know what you think.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Labyrinth or any of its characters. Everyone that you meet that is not from the movie does belong to me though.

"Alright, I'll make you a deal."
"What kind of a deal?" Catherayne asked her best friend suspiciously, as they sat in math class together.
Aimee liked to try to fix Catherayne up with a guy. She always said that she didn't like seeing her best friend always alone. She just got even more persistent when she got a boyfriend of her own. The deals that she came up with were usually just a way to get Catherayne to go out on a blind date with someone. More often than not, Catherayne would give in to her friend just to get her off of her case. Aimee knew this and used it to her advantage.
"Well, I was thinking about the dance coming up. I know that I can talk you into going. Everyone knows how you love dressing up in fancy clothes. God knows why, but you do and this is one of our rare formal dances. Of course I don't see how you can actually like them, but…"
"Aimee!" Catherayne shouted, interrupting her friend. "Sorry teach," Catherayne said, a little embarrassed, as she realized that she disrupted the whole class with her little outburst.
"I realize that you already understand what's going on, but please let the rest of your classmates learn as well, your highness," Mr. Johnson said jokingly as he gave her a mock bow. The class all erupted into laughter. Sarah was well known by everyone as 'The Princess', though she had no idea how that name started. It did make things more interesting though.
"Well yes. I suppose that just because you are lower than me in status, that is not a good enough reason to distract you from your learning. You have my permission to continue," Catherayne said as she got into the little show.
"Thank you, oh Gracious One. You are most kind."
Catherayne just gave a slight nod of her head and returned to talking with Aimee while the rest of the class went on with the math lesson. "Alright, now can we please get back on track? What exactly is this deal that you're thinking of?"
"Well, I know that there is someone that you like and that there are a few other guys here that you think are at least cute."
"That could be, but what of it?"
"You usually don't dance to any of the slow songs, so I say that I can find you a dance partner that fits even your standards."
"I doubt it, but will I have to do if you actually do find someone? And what will I get if you don't?"
"I was thinking that if I find someone for you to dance with, that you approve of of course, then you would have to come to my post formal dance party at my house and help me clean up afterwards. As for if I don't find anyone, then I'll leave you alone for the rest of high school. What do you think?"
"Okay, let's make this a little more interesting."
"Oooo, I like the sound of that."
"Let's say that if you find a guy that I approve of that will dance with me, but of course you can't force or bribe the guy, then I'll go to your silly party after the dance. Now if you find the one guy that I actually do like and get him to dance with me, same rules apply here, then I will go to your party, help clean up afterward, treat you to a movie, and even go to your after prom party and help to clean up from that. But if you don't find anyone, then you will have to personally make my dress for prom out of one of my designs."
"I can't sew."
"You don't sound too confidant about your abilities. Well, I hope that you learn to sew right quickly because you are never going to find a guy for me to dance with."
"We'll just see about that."
"This is going to be fun," Catherayne stated to herself.
Just then the bell rang and the class filed into the hall. It was the end of the day and everyone was glad to be going home. Especially Catherayne. She had to decide which dress she wanted Aimee to make for her out of all of her designs that she had done over the years. 'Yes,' she thought, ' this is going to be a lot of fun to watch. She'll never guess who it is that I like.'
