Happily Ever After

Chapter 1

Sometimes, I would wonder… what's it like to fall asleep after hearing a fairy tale from your mum. Are fairy tales real? Will a princess really have a 'happily ever after' just because of a glass slipper? Where is Never never Land? Is it possible for a beast to be a kind, handsome man just because of love? Can a beanstalk really grow until it reaches the sky? Who is the fairest one of all? Is it really possible for a fairy tale to come true?

The ballroom lit me up with all its splendour. I stood by myself, alone in the corner while I watch the people dance time away. It was a pretty sight. Vibrant colours were painted as the women swayed their pretty gowns along with them. Somewhere, beyond the crowd was the prince. I tiptoed to have a closer look at him. He was handsome and gallant, the best example for perfection, or so I heard from stories about him. He smiled as he caught sight of me. His beautiful smile captivated me and left me dazed.

The crowds parted like the Red Sea as he headed towards my direction I froze, not expecting the prince to come my way. I felt a wave of panic from my spine. The prince bowed and gently asked permission in order to have a dance with me. A smile etched on my face as I curtsy to show chivalry. He took me by the hand and lead me to the middle of the dance floor. The crowds watched us intently as they encircled us. Seeing this, the band began to serenade a slow, passionate song. And the prince and I danced to a timeless melody.

He gazed into my eyes as I gazed into his. I can feel the heat in my cheeks that caused them to turn red. I looked out the window where the stars all bear witness the tale as old as time. We listened intently to what one has to say and laughed at familiar jokes. It seemed to be the start of a happy ending.

Time had passed by with intimate conversations. I anticipated for the best part at the end of the day. The prince held my hand and-

Beeeep, Beeeep sounded the alarm clock. Kitty jumped as the alarm woke her up. She moaned as she reached her pale young hand over the alarm button and she pressed it down gently, Kita had always dreamed of meeting her prince charming ever since she was a little kid. She had always tried to act like the perfect princess, but it was obviously impossible since she acted like a spoilt brat who's temper always rises like her best friend's, Frii Yahorii (Pronounced Free- Yah-or-ree) , but Kita was glad that she and Frii had the same personalities or Kita's life would have been boring! She sighed as she looked out of her window looking at the clear blue sky, the only cloud in the sky was in the shape of a small heart. This looks like a good daythought Kitty as she got up from her bed, her deep purple hair flowed down too her ankles, her eyes where the same colour as her hair and her face as pale as a silk bed sheet.

She walked over to her wardrobe and picked up her gorgeous white uniform from the coat hanger. The uniform was a normal white blouse with a yellow cross on the pocket and the tie was a lovely baby yellow which matched the cross, the skirt was just above knee length and the border on the bottom was in a zig zag pattern and the bottom of the skirt was cut that way. She lay it down on her gorgeous four poster bed and walked over to her on suit bathroom and undressed then walked towards her shower then turned on the warm water. First year at Cherry Blossom academy, thought Kitty as she turned of the shower after cleansing her body and hair. I never thought that I would actually get accepted into one of the talented schools in Japan! I don't know anyone that goes there…. But I'm sure it'll be fun she covered her mouth and giggled.
