Hey guys! Merry 5 days before Christmas! I'm finally on Christmas break! YAY! I am (eventually maybe) gonna use the song, Eyes Open from Taylor Swift. It's such a good song if you haven't heard it.
I'm also gonna skip the Gaston scene, because that one's a little weird and I can't really do that. So, sorry for anyone who liked that scene! I'm just gonna skip straight to the scene where Belle doesn't come down for dinner. Hope you like it!
I'd like to give a shout-out to 2 people who are probably my favorite people here: *Drum roll* Vamplove218 and livinthelife321! Love you, sisters! They are awesome! Vamplove218 always likes or reviews my Zevie stories and livinthelife321 is the most hardcore Bori shipper I've ever met! Check them out!
No one's POV
Stevie sat on her bed for what seemed like hours, crying and singing softly to herself. She looked out the window as if in anticipation that her father would come back. The only time she looked away was when she heard a knock on the door. "Who is it?" She called to the door.
"Kacey, dear." A sweet voice called to her. She wiped her eyes and walked to the door. When she opened it, Kacey, the teapot, and Chip, a teacup, hopped in. "Thought you could use a spot of tea."
Stevie backed away from them in fear and amazement. "But you're a…" She trailed off after bumping into the wardrobe.
"Whoa." The wardrobe called. "Better watch where you're going."
Stevie shook her head as if trying to explain all this. "This is impossible." She sat down on the bed.
The wardrobe also took a seat on the bed, making Stevie jump. "I know it is honey, but here we are." She said in a singsong voice. She sounded as if she could be a singer.
"I told you she was pretty, mama." Chip whispered to Kacey. He was right. Everyone knew Stevie was beautiful.
"Okay, Chip, that's quite enough." Kacey said as she poured tea out of herself into Chip. Chip hopped away to Stevie. "Careful now. Don't spill."
Stevie lowered herself onto the floor and picked up Chip. She mumbled her thank you and took a sip. "Wanna see me do a trick?" Chip asked cheerfully. He took a deep breath and his tea bubbled up inside him.
"Chip!" Kacey scolded her son. He stopped almost immediately. He said he was sorry and just stood in Stevie's hand. Kacey suddenly got serious. "That was a very brave thing you did, love."
"We all think so." The wardrobe added. Maybe it was brave but Stevie can't help but feel regretful.
"But I've lost my father." Stevie said, looking down. "I've lost everything." A single tear rolled down her cheek.
"Everything will be alright. I promise." Kacey reassuringly said. Stevie smiled a little bit at this. "Well, look at me, babbling on while there's a dinner to prepare. Come along Chip." They both said good-bye and headed out the door.
The wardrobe got up and stood in front of Stevie. "So, what shall we dress you in for dinner? Let's see what I've got in my drawers!" Her doors opened up and moths flew out. She suddenly looked embarrassed. "How embarrassing!" She opened one of her doors and picked out a beautiful green dress. "Oh, you'll look ravishing in this."
"That's very kind of you, but I'm not going to dinner." Stevie said politely.
"But you must. The master ordered it." The wardrobe pleaded.
Just then, Nelson scooted in and cleared his throat. "Ahem. Dinner is served." He said with a flourish.
The beast paced back and fourth in front of the fire, with Kevin and Kacey on top of the mantle. "Why isn't she here yet?" The beast asked, growing angrier by the moment. "I told her to come down."
"Please try to be patient with the girl." Kacey said in a soft voice. "She's lost her father and her freedom all in one day."
"Master?" Kevin asked. "Did you ever think that maybe this girl is the one to break the spell?"
"Of course I have!" The beast growled. He drew back a little when he saw their scared expressions. "I'm not a fool."
"Great." Kevin said. He lit his candles for emphasis. "You fall in love with her, she falls in love with you, and poof the spell is broken. We'll be human again by midnight!"
"It's not that easy, Kevin." Kacey corrected. "These things take time."
"What am I supposed to do?" The beast asked them.
Kacey and Kevin hopped off the mantle and onto the table. "Well, we can start with making yourself more presentable." Kacey said in a serious tone. "Straighten up. Try to act like a gentlemen."
"Yes," Kevin added. "When she walks in, give her a dashing smile. Come, come, show me the smile." The beast smiled big, showing all of his fangs.
Kevin and Kacey both gave him completely different advice, but they said the most important thing in unison. "You must control your temper!"
The doorknob started to turn. They all froze in place, but were disappointed when only Nelson came in. "Well?" The beast expectantly asked.
"Well, you see given the circumstances…with all that's happened…" Nelson stammered, trying to stay off the real truth. "She's not coming."
"What?!" The beast's yell rang through the castle. He ran up the stairs, with Kevin, Kacey, and Nelson following. When he reached Stevie's room he banged on the door. "I told you to come down for dinner!" He yelled.
"I'm not hungry." Stevie yelled behind the door.
The beast's hair started to prickle at this. "If you don't come out, I'll break down the door!"
"Master," Kevin said. The beast turned to him. "I don't know if that is the best way to get the girl's attention."
"But she's being so stubborn!" The beast growled quietly.
"Gently, gently." Kacey soothed.
The beast turned back to the door. "Would you come down to dinner?" He asked through gritted teeth… or fangs.
Stevie replied with a simple "No."
The beast pointed towards the door in a blaming manner. "Suave, gentile." Nelson coached.
"It would give me great pleasure if you would join me for dinner." The beast said. Nelson nudged him to continue. "Please." When Stevie again declined, his temper rose. "You can't stay in there forever!" He yelled.
"Yes I can" Stevie rebounded.
"Fine!" The beast screamed. "Then go ahead and starve!" He turned to the servants, "If she doesn't eat with me, she doesn't eat at all."
With that, he stomped down the corridor and slammed the door shut, causing some plaster from the roof to fall on Kevin.
"That didn't go very well at all." Kacey observed.
