Chapter 1.
I want to meet you
"And so Cinderella and her Prince Charming lived happily ever after."
Yuna shut the book. She was sick of the ! Why couldn't someone seriously just write a realistic story? What was wrong with the Authors, the writers?
"Yuna! Get your fat ass down here and clean up this mess!"
Yuna sighed at the anger in her step-mother's voice. She had to clean, like any other day. But cleaning seemed to be the only thing she could do; clean and work. She worked at the café not too far from her house. It was a nice job, little pay. She worked there a lot, just to get away from her step-mother's cleaning instructions.
She headed down the stairs where her step-mother was standing by a table. Her step-sisters, Lisa and Hannah, were giggling at the mess of a drink dripping from the table. Yuna sighed to herself, and grabbed a rag,
"Hurry it up, slow ass."
One of them spat. They both giggled evilly. Yuna wiped down the table, ignoring their insults,
"You're such a slacker, Yuna. Gosh."
Lisa hissed and started to laugh with Hannah. Yuna put the rag in the dirty clothes basket, and grabbed her backpack. School wasn't much of an escape, but she had to go.
······························
She pulled up in her strange-looking van that had graffiti sprayed all over it. Her step-mother had gotten it at some auction and it didn't cost much, obviously. She was about to park in a certain parking-spot, but just then, a loud sound of hip-hop music came blasting passed her; the most popular teenagers in the school had taken her spot.
She sighed. She watched as they got out; one by one. First out was Wakka DiMaggio, he wasn't the most popular guy, but he was still in. He got out of the car, holding onto his beloved Rikku Gippert, his friend.
Then there was Tidus Murray; he was definitely the most popular, liked guy in the school. Other then that, he was gorgeous; simply gorgeous. He helped his friend, Dona Louis, out of the car. She was evil, mostly to Yuna. Yuna had never been taunted by Tidus but she had been taunted by Dona.
Yuna sighed and drove her car into an unoccupied spot. She got out, and could hear Dona's giggles and her gossiping. Yuna grabbed her books and headed towards her locker.
"Did ya hear? Dona's gonna break up with Tidus and go out with that new kid... uh, forgot his name."
Some said to the next to her. Yuna couldn't stand the gossip. Dona had played every single guy in the school, it was so obvious she wasn't going to stay with Tidus.
Yuna, however, wasn't allowed to get herself involved with a guy. Like she would actually get one; no one in the school really liked her. She had one good friend, Lulu. Lulu was her only true friend. Rikku once pretended to be Yuna's friend, but then she just stabbed her in the back.
"Ya, Tidus is totally gorgeous. I don't get why Dona would break-up with him! I mean, I'd take him in a heart beat"
"OMG Jessica! What about Justin?"
"Ya, whatever. Tidus is hotter then Justin."
"You have got to be kidding me!"
Yuna slammed her locker shut and headed towards her first hour: Algebra. She was horrible at Algebra, and the worst part of it was that Dona was there to make fun of her.
She took her usual seat which was in the back of the class, all alone. She shuffled through her books, and realized she took her cell phone. She panicked; someone had sent her a message.
She stuffed it into her binder swiftly, and headed out the door, finding the nearest bathroom. She opened her cell phone cover:
blitzer4life says: hey
She smiled. She loved talking to him. She actually didn't even know who he really was though.
princessgrl192 says: hey
blitzer4life says: whatcha up to?
princessgrl192 says: why r u IM-ing me during school hours lol I had to leave my class!
blitzer4life says: yea I know. I was bored and i had time to waste be4 homeroom. So when am I goin to get 2 c who u r?
princessgrl192 says: umm soon. But I have to go. I don't want 2 b late 4 class lol. bye ttyl
blitzer4life says: alright c ya but remember I rly wana meet u soon lol
She flipped her phone-cover shut. If only she knew who he was. But if he did, he probably wouldn't like her, right? She sighed heavily and headed towards her TA class.
······························
After class, she headed to Lulu's locker just to greet her,
"Hey Lulu."
Yuna said, with her books in her hands. Lulu smiled at her and grabbed some books out of her locker,
"You won't believe this. Everyone's obsessing over Rikku dumping Tidus."
Yuna rolled her eyes,
"They're desperate to find something to talk about! Anyways, I talked to blitzer today."
She announced. It was now Lulu's turn to roll her eyes,
"Come on Yuna, just ask him what his name is for Yevon's sakes! Or tell him your name. I mean, he could be anyone! He could be Wakka DiMaggio for all we know!"
Yuna giggled,
"I highly doubt that. But he is so nice. Maybe I should tell him to meet me somewhere?"
"Hmm, sounds good to me. Anyways, we got P.E. right? Darn!"
Lulu shouted, slamming her finger into her locker. Yuna gasped,
"Are you ok?"
"Never mind me. Let's just get to class."
Lulu said, sucking on her finger. She then grabbed her books, Yuna following behind her.
······························
"And besides that, I expect you to be extremely accurate at doing this because if you are not then"
The teacher was cut off by Yuna and Lulu walking into the gymnasium, dressed in their uniforms,
"Ah, Miss Lesca and Miss Anderson, it's nice of you to join us."
Mr. Arnold, the gym teacher said,
"Lulu you may go take a seat next to Mr. DiMaggio over there, and Yuna you may go take a seat next to Mr. Murray over there,"
Yuna sighed and took a seat next to Tidus. He didn't say anything to her; he never really did talk to her, he just ignored her.
"Now, on with the lesson,"
······························
After gym class, Tidus headed outside of the high school for a little break. He was bored and decided to IM his good old friend.
blitzer4life says: hey
Yuna headed outside also and walked to the opposite side of where Tidus stood. She opened her phone,
blitzer4life says: hey
She smiled and decided to chat with him before she got to lunch.
princessgrl192 says: hey. u IM me like all the time now lol
blitzer4life says: yea I rly wnt 2 meet u at least tell me ur name
princessgrl192 says: mebbe sum othr time I got 2 get 2 lunch. So ttyl?

princessgrl192 says: lol thanx u r like the nicest person I no. well bye ttyl. luv ya 2
Both of them closed their cell-phone cases and headed to lunch.
······························
"You seem... distracted."
Lulu pointed out. Yuna took a sip off her lemonade,
"I just don't know Lulu. I want to tell blitzer who I am, but what if he stops talking to me when I do?"
"Yuna, you have to tell him sometime! I mean, come on. What if he's like prince charming or something?"
Lulu inquired, biting into her cheese pizza. Yuna giggled,
"I doubt that! He seems so sweet though..."
"Oh, yeah, forgot to tell you. I got invited to a blitzball game. It's Friday night at six, think you could come?"
Lulu asked. Yuna looked down,
"I'd have to sneak passed my step-mom. But, I'd love to."
"Cool. I'll just have to tell Jeff then."
Lulu added, getting up to throw her tray away. Yuna sighed and put her head down. She noticed Tidus and Wakka getting up to throw their trays away. Yuna saw Wakka messing with Lulu a little bit; this angered Yuna.
She got up and grabbed her tray, marching over to them,
"What's going on Lulu?"
She asked quietly. Lulu pulled her away,
"Nothing."
"Geez, we just having a friendly conversation, ya? Chill..."
Wakka added glancing at Yuna. Yuna looked at her feet. Wakka then started laughing his butt off,
"You are pretty weird, ya?"
He said. Yuna looked at Tidus; his face looked indifferent.
"Let's sit down, get away from this weirdo..."
Wakka said, dragging Tidus back to the table. Yuna looked down embarrassedly,
"I'm sorry Lulu, I ruined everything. I'm just useless. I can't do anything right."
She mumbled. Lulu put a pale hand on Yuna's shoulder,
"Don't say that. I appreciate your concern. Wakka and I are good friends. I know it's hard to believe, but it's the truth."
She said smiling warmly. Yuna returned the smile,
"Thanks Lulu."
They returned to their seats.
Tidus, from afar, was dwelling over something. Wakka looked at him quizzically, along with the rest of the gang,
"Wassup?"
Wakka asked, concernedly. Tidus shook his head,
"Y'know that I've been chatting with? I really wanna meet her, but she won't even tell me her name."
Wakka put a hand on Tidus' shoulder,
"Don't worry 'bout it, she's probably just some kinda loser, ya? Not something to worry about. Anyways, you gonna eat that burger?"
Wakka asked. Tidus shook his head, and completely ignoring Wakka's previous comment, he got out his cell-phone,
blitzer4life says: hey im in the cafeteria where r u
Yuna heard a 'bing' on her cell-phone,
"It's him!"
She squealed opening her phone-cover like a mad woman. Lulu sighed,
"He says he's in the cafeteria,"
Yuna added,
blitzer4life says: im in the cafeteria where r u
princessgrl192 says: so am i
She stopped. He wanted to know where she was. Lulu looked around, hoping to see a guy with a cell-phone. Her eyes lied on Tidus,
"Yuna, there's no one with a cell in their hands"
She lied. She knew it wasn't Tidus. There was no way. That was like a one percent chance out of one hundred.
blitzer4life says: plz tell me where u r i rly wnt 2 meet u my friends think im crazy but man I rly wnt to
princessgrl192 says: i am so sry but tell me where u r
blitzer4life says: im sitting the main table.
blitzer4life says: i gtg sry well latr thn mebe?
"Darn it!"
Yuna exclaimed stomping her foot. She was so close, yet so far. Who was he? Who was he? The main table? Where was that?
"The main table..."
"Yuna, just forget about it. Someone's onto the account. Let's just forget about it, ok? He's as scared as you are!"
Lulu exclaimed. Yuna looked at her feet,
"I guess you're right."

End Of First Chapter.
This is based off the movie 'A Cinderella story' with Hilary Duff & Chad Micheal Murray (AKA cutie!) lol. Hope you liked my first chappie, if you didn't, too bad, I am still going to update! Also if you haven't notice Yuna is chatting with Tidus and she has no idea, and he has no idea. Interesting? Oh yes!
