Cerise pov
"Cerise and Daring sitting in a tree, G," Raven whisper sang, as we waited in throneroom for the bell to ring.
"I am just guessing your going to be bothering me about this until the dance," I ask.
"You bet," Briar said.
"Did you think for a spell we won't," Ashlynn said.
"It is going to be fun," Maddie cheered in.
"I still can't believe your going with Daring UnCharming," Lizzie said, using the nickname we made up for him during Spring Fairest.
Neither can I, I thought to myself.
"Hey, what did Apple do when she found out," Raven asked.
"She went a little Mad if you know what I mean," Ashlynn said.
"Not your kind of Mad," Briar said, just before Maddie said something.
Than the bell rand, saving me from them.
"Well see you guys later I got to go to bookball practice," I said.
"With Daring," Maddie cooed.
"Ooooooohhhhhhhhh," they all said.
"Ha ha," I shot back.
"I will meet you when your done, we write that short story for Mr. Jack B. Nimble," Lizzie shouted as I ran down the hall.
I got the field there first, as always, and waited for the rest of the team to show up. I had just started stretching when I heard someone call, "Cerise," I turned my head to see Daring coming from the school to the field.
"Hey Charming," I said to him once he got over to where I was.
"Hey Hood," He said putting his backpack down along side mine on the bleacher and started stretching with me.
"So," I said.
"So," he replied.
"That is not awkward at all.
"Can you believe everyone is making such a big bad deal about us going together," I said.
"I know were just two friend, co-captain, going together. It is no big deal," Daring said.
"Right," I said.
"Um I was thinking- Daring started but he was interrupted by a voice saying, "Hey guys," it turned out to be Hunter and the rest of the bookball team.
I wonder what he was going to say, I thought to myself, I guess I will never know.
"Line up," Coach GingerBread called from further down the field and we all got up and went to him.
"Cerise and Daring, you guys are putting away the Equipment today," Coach said after we were all down with practice.
Of course it is me and daring, cause that is just my lucky, I thought to myself as I headed back down the field to get them.
I, of course, got my half down in record time and Daring was almost done.
"Here Charming let me help you with that," I said taking half of the weighted off his shulder.
"If you say so Hood," he shot back.
We carried it the rest of the way in silence and when we put it where it belong we went to get our bags.
As I got my bag and turned around I found myself not even an inch away from Daring's face.
"Um," I started to say something but I couldn't finish cause of what happened next.
Daring toke a piece of hair in front of my face and pushed it back, luckily his hand didn't touch my ear, and he said, "You really are one of the prettiest girls in Ever After High."
And soon our face kept getting closer and closer and I thought we were about to kiss when...
"Hey Cerise," Lizzie shouted.
Our project, I thought. I turned to face Daring and said, "Um sorry, I have go do a paper with um Lizzie, so ya um Bye."
I raced back to the school to meet Lizzie in front of the doors.
"So your just friends with Daring," Lizzie said as we made our way down to the dorms.
"Ya,"I answered.
"Well I don't know if this is how it works in Ever After but friends don't kiss each other," Lizzie said with a smirk on her face, clearly enjoying this.
"We didn't kiss," I said.
"Than what happened back there," Lizzie asked.
"We almost kiss, not a kiss, a almost kiss," I corrected her.
"Sure Cerise, keep telling yourself that," she said with a laugh.
"Let's just get to the dorm rooms and do the project," I said, staring to walk ahead of her.
I almost kissed Daring Charming, I thought to myself, and I wanted him to kiss me.
