(Paul's POV)
The intermission had been going on for about 5 minutes already and Dawn and I have been pacing back and forth panicking about the kissing scene, "Ohmigod! What will we do?" Dawn asks her face sweating a bit with her bangs sticking to her forehead.
I grunt and look around trying to calm myself down. What if I make a big mistake from stammering or I fall on my face from running? I think but Dawn grasps me and shakes me furiously.
"We only have 9 damn minutes left!" Dawn screams and she keeps shaking me and I push her away.
"Shut the fuck up and calm down for god's sake!" I scream back at her and she falls silent then she buries her face in her hands and starts crying silently.
Go ahead. . . Keep crying. . . I don't care one bit. . . I thought grimly and a small part of me said I should say sorry. But I'm not that kind of person who says sorry to cry-babies. . . I thought and May runs over to her.
"Dawn!" May shouts and she puts a hand on her shoulder, "What happened?" She asks the crying blunette.
"P-Paul screamed at my face and pushed me down. . ." Dawn mumbles while crying.
May glares hard at me and walks up to me, "Paul, you are a fucking bitch." She says harshly then slaps me so hard in the face that a red mark quickly appeared and it stung like a car hit me on the cheek.
"Shit!" I scream and I clutch my cheek, red spots appearing and May keeps glaring at me while comforting her crying friend.
Dawn sniffles a lot before wiping her tears away and she looks up at me, "P-Paul? Are you alright?" She asks her voice so soft it almost sounds like a whisper.
I look at her my eyes clouded with worry and pain, "Y-yeah. . ." I whisper and I put my hand down revealing a deep red scar.
"Oh my god! May!" Dawn shouts to her friend next to her and May steps back, "You slapped him that hard!" She shouts and Dawn runs over to me.
"I-I didn't know! Honest!" May shouts and she backs away her eyes growing wide.
Dawn's eyes fill with tears again and she hugs me tight, "Don't worry. . . We can always fix everything if we do it together. . ." She whispers and May slowly walks away.
I slightly smile I hear May make a quick get-away before I start a fight and Dawn goes on her tip-toes. Dawn looks at me deeply in the eyes my eyes meeting hers before she gives me a kiss on the cheek that May had slapped.
My eyes slightly burr and I shake my head and Dawn stands normally, "Is something wrong with what I did?" She asks tilting her head to the side.
I shake my head, "No. . ." I murmur and I look around, "It's time for us to shine again." I say and we walk to the side of the stage but hidden behind the curtains.
The next stage comes in and I watch the set come in, a long table with many candles on it, a wonderful buffet all around the table, tons of chairs, and even an ice statue of the palace in the middle, "I wonder how much this all cost. . ." I hear Dawn mumbles to herself and Ms. Ramona walks over.
"I think they overdid it with the candles and ice sculpture. . ." She murmurs and I watch Ms. Ramona and Dawn talk.
"So your saying the ice sculpture is real?" Dawn says and Ms. Ramona nods.
I look on stage and Drew and May are seen sitting on their chairs. I fix my collar with a flick of my hands, "Let's go." I say with a smirk and Dawn and I walk on stage smiling.
Dawn timidly holds my hand and I feel her hand shake a bit, "Don't worry. . . It's ok. . ." I say faintly and she nods then Drew stands up and walks over.
"Well I see you have become friends now!" Drew chirps and Dawn and I both nod, "That's wonderful! But for now sit down and the rest of the guests shall arrive shortly." He says and Drew goes back to his seat.
I glance at Dawn and she sits on the labeled seat with her name on it. I sit on mine and we hear many voices, "Queen Melanie! King Sebastian! How wonderful is it to see you both again?" I look at the person who had spoken and realized it was Leaf all dressed in fancy olden-time-ish clothing and she wore tons of make-up almost making her resemble a clown.
"Princess Diana! How long has it been ever since we saw you last time?" May chirps and she gives a warm smile.
"I guess about a couple of years. . ." Leaf says tapping her chin.
"You look so. . . Over-dressed. . ." Drew says and he looks at her clothes and make-up.
"I-I do?" Leaf shouts and she looks at her clothes and pats her face.
"Well. . . Yeah. . . Anyway, remember my daughter, Fedaura?" May asks and she points to Dawn.
Leaf nods and she looks at me, "Whose this? Is he the new prince you're talking about in the invitation?" She asks.
Drew nods, "Yes, and he is going to marry Fedaura soon." He says and a hint of jealousy glints in Leaf's eyes as she looks at Drew.
"Oh ok." She says and a two people walk over to them, "Mother? Father?" Leaf asks and the silhouettes become clearer showing Leaf's father and mother, the king and queen, King Patrick and Queen Rosalyn(Trip and Iris).
"King Patrick, Queen Rosalyn!" Dawn shouts and she smiles.
"Fedaura, my dear! It has been so long!" Iris runs up to Dawn and hugs her.
I watch everybody talk and mingle. Not long, all the other guests arrive and the stage fills with talking students. Some talking about school things and other's following what was written on the script.
I hear a loud bell and everybody turns to see Drew ringing a small bell, "Now sit down everyone!" Drew shouts above the murmurs.
We all take our seats and the extra people come in as waiters and waitresses to pour some apple cider into the glasses.
Don't tell me this is real. . . I think to myself and I shake the glass a bit. Well it's real all right. . . I think while watching the apple cider slowly stop swishing around inside the glass.
I nearly start daydreaming until Drew stands up while shaking his bell, "Listen everybody!" He shouts while ringing the bell loudly, "All you know the reason why you came here." He says while gazing down at the people seated at the table.
Most of the people nod along with me, "Well then, I would like to now welcome the soon-to-be prince of Sinnoh!" Drew announces and he nods his head to me signaling I should stand.
I stand up and give a slight smile with waving a bit, "Hi." I say and I sit down again.
"Well my daughter Fedaura shall be wed to him next week Monday." Drew calls out and ripples of murmurs fill the stage.
I glance around noticing the small glares coming from Leaf. She really is getting into her character. . . I think and Dawn looks at me, "Wouldn't you think that would be nice?" She asks me smiling.
"W-what?" I ask completely forgetting I wasn't paying any attention.
"Nice that our wedding should be held at the cliff-side overlooking the ocean." She reminds me not knowing that I hadn't been listening.
"Yes, of course it would." I reply and Drew nods.
"Well then it's settled! Your wedding shall be held at the cliff-side on Monday!" Drew chirps and he smiles.
I glance at Dawn and she holds my hand smiling. I don't think the holding hands thing is in the script. . . I think to myself and the others congratulate us with toasts and verbal congratulations.
The stage darkens into black then a scene of the next few days flying by and other people take Dawn and I's roles so we have enough time to change into our next costumes.
The scene ends and the stage darkens once more. A sunset view of the ocean on a cliff-side is seen next and found there are white cloth covered chairs, each with a ribbon in the back, and a white arch with red roses growing on it.
While the stage is still dark, I run on and take my place standing next to the white arch and I look to the right to see Kenny dressed up in an outfit of a priest, "This feels itchy for a reason. . ." I hear him mumble and I shudder.
Don't tell me the reason. . . I think to myself and the rest of the actors and actresses run on stage to take their places.
The white arch was placed on the left side of the stage so when Dawn enters she can just walk straight without anyone seeing her come on yet. The chairs were about twenty for all the people to have a seat each but I thought of the people watching us instead.
What will be their reaction to this last scene? Will they gasp in shock or say silent? I thought and my vision blurred a bit as the bright lights above me shone. I hear Kenny clear his throat a bit and slow music plays as the background.
I turn to the curtain ahead of me as I watch Dawn slowly walk on stage. One of her hands holds a bouquet of flowers while her other arm is around Drew's arm while they both walk on the carpet laid out in the middle.
Dawn reaches her place and Drew walks to his seat and sits down. Kenny starts speaking and I look at him, "We are gathered here today to witness the marriage of Fedaura Dawn and Leonardo Writhleback." Kenny says and his voice echoes around.
(I don't really know the things they say at weddings so I'm skipping most of the parts so we're gonna be at the last part with the vows and kiss. Also, if I got some words wrong or I interchanged what would happen just tell me and I can update this chapter.)
"Do you, Feduara Dianne Dawn take Leonardo Michael Writhleback to be your lawfully wedded husband?" Kenny asks and he glances from me to Dawn.
"I do." Dawn says nodding slightly and she smiles.
"And do you, Leonardo Michael Writhleback take Feduara Dianne Dawn to be your laywfully wedded wife?" Kenny asks me.
"I do." I say and I can't help but smile.
Kenny smirks, "I now pronounce you husband and wife!" Kenny announces, "You may now kiss the bride." He says.
I close my eyes and kiss Dawn. Her lips tasted of strawberry and I open my eyes noticing the curtain slowly closing and I try to prolong the kiss.
Hurry up you stupid curtain! I think to myself and it finally closes on us and Dawn and I step back, both of us taking deep breathes and I wipe her lipgloss off my lips.
We run off stage and the curtain opens up again. Dawn and I walk on stage holding hands and we bow, the crowd clapping and cheering for us. I smile knowing how many people we entertained and where the money these people used to buy the tickets would go to.
(Third person POV)
The others walk on stage and they crowd claps and cheers for them too. Ms. Ramona gives some words to the actors and audience, ". . . And to the actors and actresses involved in the making of this wonderful play, another round of applause!" She says proudly and the audience claps again.
The actors and actresses bow holding each other's hand and they go backstage for more congratulations from the stage-crew and teachers. Dawn and Paul walk to the big table for a drink, "That was fun!" Dawn remarks and Paul grunts in agreement.
"So how was your kiss?" Gary mocks and Paul rolls his eyes then gets a water bottle.
"Maybe you should keep your mouth shut and your eyes glued to your own business instead." Paul says without looking at Gary.
Gary snorts, "I was just asking. . . As if you even liked it? I could tell from your expression." He says Gary's eyes narrowing at Paul as he turns around to look at Gary.
"I told you to stick to your own business or I'm gonna do something so bad you're never going to forget it. . ." Paul taunts and Gary smirks.
"I'd like to see what you have laid out for me tomorrow at the prom. . . Maybe I'll just steal something. . . Or someone from you. . ." Gary taunts back smirking at Dawn and she backs away her eyes showing worry.
"Don't you dare steal Dawn or I'll tell Leaf you think she's more worthless than a magickarp." Paul threatens and he narrows his eyes, the tension between them growing.
Gary clenches his fist and grits his teeth, "Don't. You. Dare. Tell. Leaf." He says through his gritted teeth and Paul smirks.
"I knew there was something up with you and Leaf." Paul says and he crosses his arms across his chest.
"There's nothing 'up' between Leaf and me." Gary murmurs and he storms away growling.
"Looks like you need to thank me." Paul says to Dawn after Gary disappears among the crowd.
"Huh? Oh, yeah. Thanks." Dawn says and she looks at Paul.
"You ok?" He asks looking at her.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She murmurs and garbs her bag then goes to the girls changing room.
Paul watches her leave and walks to the boys changing room, getting his bag along the way, "What's with Dawn? She seems a bit. . . Dazed. . ." He mumbles to himself and Paul quickly changes into a pure black shirt and worn-out jeans with a pair of black Converse shoes.
Dawn walks out of the changing room staring hard at the floor while walking out and she bumps into someone and looks up, "Sorry. . ." She murmurs and notices May was the person who she had bumped into, "May?" She asks.
"Dawn? Dawn!" May exclaims and she hugs her blue haired friend, "So how was it?" She asks releasing Dawn from her killer death-hug.
"Wh-which one?" Dawn asks rubbing her neck from the hug.
"Everything that happened in the play!" May shouts and Dawn taps her head, thinking.
"Um. . . Well it was fun and a good way to express myself. . ." Dawn murmurs and May gasps.
"When you mean 'express yourself' you mean. . . You do have feelings for Paul?" May shouts and gasps in shock.
"W-what? I didn't mean it that way!"Dawn shouts and she gasps too.
"Gasping contest here?" Misty asks walking over to May and Dawn.
"MISTY! YOU WILL NEVER BELIEVE WHAT DAWN SAID!" May screams in Misty's face and Misty covers her ears.
"God May! Lower your voice or the whole school can hear you!" Misty shouts back and May frowns.
"Sorry. . ." May murmurs and Dawn covers May's mouth.
Dawn looks at Misty, her eyes wide, "Don't listen to anything May has to say. . ." Dawn says and May licks her hand, "MAY! THAT'S GROSS!" Dawn shouts and she takes her hand off May's mouth and rubs it on her shirt.
May snickers, "Well that was the only idea left in my head. . . Anyway, Misty! Dawn said that-" May explains but gets cut off as the boys approach them, "I'll tell you later." She says quietly.
"Hey guys!" Ash says with a smile, "Whatcha' doin'?" He asks and the girls exchange looks saying 'You say it'.
Paul looks at them and he lifts up an eyebrow, "What's up?" He asks and Dawn gulps.
"W-well. . . We were. . . Talking about girl things. . ." Dawn lies and the boys look at the girls suspiciously.
"Hmm. . . You sure? 'Cause I heard lots of screaming and shouting coming from here. . ." Drew says and May sifts her position feeling a bit queasy.
"Yeah were sure." Misty says and the boys nod but still look at them suspiciously.
"Anyway. . . Have you guys seen Leaf or Gary around?" Ash asks and the girls shake their heads, "II wonder where they could've gone. . ." He murmurs and Dawn and Paul look at each other worried.
"Dawn? You ok?" May asks and she pokes Dawn.
"Hmm?" Dawn looks at May, "Oh, yeah, I'm fine." She says and Misty takes her phone out and texts Leaf.
'Hey Leaf. Where are you? The boys along with May, Dawn and I are looking for you and Gary. Please meet us at the secret garden ASAP' Misty puts in the text and she looks up at them, "I told her to meet us at the secret garden so let's go!" Misty says and she runs to the garden May and Dawn right behind her. Drew, Paul and Ash quickly follow them, weaving through the people.
They slow to a walk as they reach the corridors and Dawn looks around, "Is it just me, or are the hallways empty for once?" Dawn asks.
The others look around, "Oh yeah!" May says in realization, "Maybe they just. . . . Are sleeping?" She asks smiling sheepishly.
"Yeah maybe you could be right. . . But they also might be in their dorms, studying or something." Drew says and they hear some faint sounds.
"Does anyone hear. . . Voices? Maybe more of. . . thumps?" Ash asks and they all shudder.
"Don't be such a baby, Ash." Paul mocks and Ash pouts.
"I am not a baby!" Ash retorts and Paul rolls his eyes.
"Then why are you scared of some thumps and voices?" Paul asks and Ash scratches his head.
"Um . . . Well. . . 'Cause you know. . . There's no one in the hallway. . . And we can hear things out-of-the-ordinary. . ." Ash murmurs and the noises get louder as they walk next to the janitor's closet.
"Shh. . ." Misty says and she peeks at the air vent thingy on the bottom of the door, "I can see. . . Feet, shoes and. . . People?" Misty whispers and May nods.
A white hat with a red pokeball insignia falls on the floor and rolls near the vent and Dawn gasps, "Bu-but that's-" Dawn says horrified and Ash cuts her off.
"It is!" He says with a gasp and they all look each other with a surprised look.
"Looks like we put two and two together and got something we shouldn't have found out. . ." Paul says and they stand up.
"M-maybe we should go now!" Drew says and they all run to the secret garden.
