A/N: Thank you for all of the enthusiastic reviews! They really make me feel like continuing.

To Clara: I wish I could say that that had clicked before of your review, but your review has once again sparked a realization that I didn't see earlier. I mainly got the name from a childhood movie I used to watch-sorry

Ella, as very, very tempting as that is… I sorta want to find out when I read the book, sorry! Thanks for the offer though!

So…Here's the next chapter…

Chapter 3

Sabrina opened the door to the large house and quietly entered. She tiptoed down the hallway, and up the stairs. By the time she had made it up the stairs, she was exhausted and winded. She cursed silently at herself for being so weak. Why her? Why couldn't she just go back to being the usual, strong, invincible Sabrina? She pushed these thoughts to the back of her mind and stealthily crept to the door at the end of the upstairs hallway. She turned the handle almost without any noise at all, and silently pushed the door open. Once she was in, she quickly grabbed the item she was after and retreated back the way she had come. She was just about to leave the house, when, with a jolt, she felt a rough hand on her shoulder. She wanted to turn around and yell at the owner of the hand but she couldn't. The hand was just so strong, and she was so weak. She cursed to herself. It had been the only way to save her family, and now it had been taken away from her. The hand started to shake her, gently at first, then roughly

"Wake up, Grimm, the party's in two hours, and you're crying again, wimp," Puck said roughly.

Sabrina started to take offense, but then realized that the family must be home, and that she had been dreaming again, "Yeah, yea, whatever,fairyboy, why don't you go get ready?" she mumbled angrily.

He stepped back to reveal a black tuxedo with a green vest and tie, "I am," he said simply, a twinkle in his eye that would have gotten him in trouble if anyone else had been in the room. He really looks stunning, Sabrina thought to herself.

"Oh," was all Sabrina said, blushing. She stood up and staggered up to her room, opened her closet. Inside was a beautiful dress that Briar had given her when she had heard about the masquerade from Uncle Jake.

She put it on and studied herself in the mirror. It was green, matching Puck's vest, tie, and his eyes, at the moment. It was sleeveless, tight fitting until it poofed out at the waist and created a full skirt down to the floor. A thick silver sash wrapped around the waist, and tied in a large bow in the back. She walked over to her night stand and picked out a simple silver necklace and silver studs for earrings. Walking back over to the mirror, she started messing with her hair. After a bit, she decided to curl it, and leave it down.

She had done her make up when she woke up that morning, so she only needed to make a few touch ups. After she was done with that, she looked at herself in the mirror for a few seconds before deciding that she was pleased with what she saw. She looked over at the clock and realized she only had a few mines to spare before it was time to go. She slipped into her silver matching heels, grabbed her clutch and the mask that went with the dress. It was silver, fit to her face, and was shaped like a butterfly. Normally the shape alone sounded juvenile, but paired with the green and silver dress, it created a beautiful, almost whimsical look.

Sabrina, due to the heels, walked slowly down the stairs, putting on her mask on the way. Puck greeted her at the bottom with an open mouth that quickly turned into a grin. He looked around, then offered his arm to her.

"You look beautiful," he whispered in her ear.

"Thank you, you look very handsome yourself," she murmured.

They walked into the kitchen and Puck dropped his arm as Sabrina let go. Granny was in the kitchen, her back turned to the doorway, and did not here them enter. Sabrina cleared her throat, and Granny stopped what she was doing and turned around.

"Oh my," she gasped lightly, "the two of you look very lovely."

Daphne and Red came running in and oohed and ahhed over the blushing couple.

"You look like a fairy princess," Daphne said.

"Yeah, she does," Red said.

"I don't see anything different 'bout her," Puck said grouchily.

Sabrina almost laughed. It was such a contrast to his reaction when he first saw her, it struck her as very funny. She swallowed her laughter quickly, and punched puck on the arm.

"Says the one who looks like he just stepped out of a mud pit," she said.

"Hey, I showered three times," Puck said.

"Yeah, sure," she said.

"I did!" he said defensively.

"I never said you didn't," Sabrina stated.

They bickered like that until Uncle Jake walked in.

"Wow," he cut them off, "you two look great. Now if only you would keep your mouths shut as to not ruin the effect."

Sabrina rolled her eyes and asked, "How are we going to get there?"

"Jake will drive you there, but he has a date with Briar, so Puck will have to fly the two of you home, because we aren't sure when he'll be back and by that time, it will be dark enough that you won't draw attention to yourselves," Granny said.

"Fine," Sabrina said.

"Hey, don't I get a say in this?" Puck asked.

"Please, Puck don't put up a fight," Granny said wearily.

Puck sighed, "Fine, but this is just cause you feed me, old lady, I swear I'm not going soft," he said.

"I know, dear," Granny said.

"Ok, well, we'd better be going," Uncle Jack said.

They headed towards the door. Once they had climbed into the car and belted themselves in, they left for Clara's house. The entire car ride was spent in relative silence, Puck and Sabrina were trying to portray anger at each other, and Uncle Jake was trying not to interfere.

Once they arrived, Puck and Sabrina climbed out of the car and Uncle Jake said, "Have a good time, and try not to act like you like each other too much, people might believe you." He winked, and they nodded and started up to the house.

"I wonder…could he-" Sabrina started.

Puck picked up on her train of thought and finished for her, "Know? Possibly, hopefully not, but then again, I'd rather him know than Marshmellow, or the Old Lady."

"Yea, he's least likely to rub it in our face or make a big deal out of it," Sabrina said.

"Very true," Puck replied and turned around to make sure that the car was gone before offering Sabrina his arm again.

She linked hers in his and they walked up to the house. Once they were at the door, they paused and put their mask on. Sabrina looked over at Puck and saw that his mask was silver like hers, covering just the upper portion of his face, with an intricate green design on it. Around the edges were small diamonds.

"Well, princess, shall we ring the doorbell?" Puck asked.

"Uh, sure," Sabrina said, caught off guard by this new nickname he called her.

Puck smirked and pushed the button. They could not actually hear the ring, as soft orchestral music was coming from inside.

Clara opened the door, in a simple, but still beautiful dress and invited them inside.

"I'm so glad the two of you could make it," she said, leaning them towards a part of the house they had not been in the week before. She looked at their linked arms and raised an eyebrow, "So are you two…an unofficial 'thing?'" she asked.

"We're official," Puck spoke up, "It's just that…no one really knows."

Clara laughed, "Well, your secret's safe with me. I was wondering the other day, but figured if you weren't saying anything about it, it was for a reason, so I kept my mouth shut."

"We appreciate it," Sabrina said.

"Well, here it is," Clara opened a door to reveal a large room with many people already inside dancing to the music Sabrina recognized as the nutcracker suite.

"We thought it would be…ironic to play music from a musical based off of our story, even, no especially, since it's nothing like our actual story," Clara said.

"Yeah, they really screwed it up," Puck said bluntly. Sabrina and Puck had stayed up late one night reading the journals dedicated to the story of Clara and the Nutcracker.

Just then the doorbell rang and Clara said, "Oh, I have to get that. Have fun, you two."

She hurried off and Sabrina turned to Puck, "Dance with me?" she asked.

"Of course, your highness," Sabrina laughed and they walked off to the dance floor.

The rest of the night was spent watching and dancing, with the occasional stop to rest. As far as suspicious activity was concerned, though, nothing of significance happened. When the dance was over they thanked Clara and her husband for hosting them, and stepped outside into the chilly night air. Sabrina shivered and crossed her arms. Puck circled around behind her and wrapped his arms around her. Suddenly she was not cold anymore. He then swooped her up bridal style and leapt into the air, his pink wings popping out of his back. They started in the direction of the Grimm's house

"So you never told me you were an amazing dancer," She said to him.

"There are many things you don't know about me," he teased.

"Oh yes, and I have many secrets as well," she joked back.

"Name one."

"I had an amazing time tonight," she said softly.

"Hardly a secret, seeing as how I already knew that, but you never told me outright, so I guess I'll accept that," he said.

All too soon they were on the front door of their house. They stood there for a couple of seconds, then Sabrina stood up on her tiptoes and kissed Puck on the cheek. She hadn't remembered him being so tall when they first met.

Puck smiled then leaned down and kissed her on the lips. After they broke apart, Sabrina said, "Well, did I say I had an amazing time tonight?"

Puck laughed, "You may have mentioned it."

"Oh, well, I did," She said.

They knocked on the door, seeing as how Sabrina did not yet have her own set of keys. After a few minutes Daphne opened the door and they walked in without a word to each other.

"So? How was it?" Daphne asked eagerly.

"It was-" Sabrina started.

"Boring," Puck cut her off.

"Oh," Daphne said, slightly put out, then she brightened, "what did you think of it, Sabrina?"

"It was fun, tomorrow I'll have to tell you all about the beautiful dresses," she said, knowing that that would please her sister for the moment.

"Yay!" Daphne exclaimed.

"But now it's late and I'm tired," Sabrina said.

"Yup, I'm going to bed," Puck said and with that walked up the stairs. A few seconds later they heard his door shut.

"Could you come to Red's and my room? And at least start to tell us about the dresses?" Daphne pleaded.

"…Sure," Sabrina said, "just let me get my pajamas and I'll be there."

Daphne squealed and ran off to tell red. Sabrina sighed and watched her sister go. She thought about the night and smiled to herself, humming a tune as she went to her room to grab her pajamas.
