SO so sorry for the long wait guys, but i have ALOT of schoolwork. enjoy my story and please please please R&R! here we goooooooooo (sorry puck).BTW- Daphne's around 15

5. Pretty

She loved being called pretty. She loved the way it would make her feel. Her checks would blush and her heart would begin to pound vigorously. She just loved the fact that it made her feel.... special, something she hadn't felt.. in a long time. So on that one night as there hearts beated ever so slowly, she felt amazing.

He just told me i was pretty she thought.She normally didn't get many compliments like that because whenever she was about to become "the prettiest girl in the world" her sister had to come in and ruin it.

"Why darling you look so..- oh Sabrina as lovely as ever", "oh look here comes the prettiest girl in the- oh Sarina what a beautiful dress when did you get so pretty?" most conversationsended like that, and well, she was used to it.

But on that one night in New York City she couldn't have felt more, more, spectabuloso (new word).

She was getting ready for the party at the golden egg that the Grimms had been invited to. She was about to apply her makeup when she heard a knock on the door.

"Coming" she yelled. She put down the eyeliner that she was about to use and ran to answer her door. She was shocked at the blonde man with that Charming yet familiar smile, that she had seen many years ago.

"Mustardseed?" sheasked. He grinned. "Oh my goshness it been so long.." she ran up to hug him. He didn't hesitate to hug her back.

"What are you doing here" she asked "Well I know what your doing HERE in the city but i meant like here as in my hotel room" (yes she got her own room)

"Well" He started "I decided to come and see you before the party and well I kinda wanted to ask you something"

"Go ahead, you can ask me anything" she told him.

"Well, you see,..." he started but look confused on how to ask. "Oh come on, Mustardseed you can ask me anything just say it"

"OK well everyone kinda is bringing...dates, and well I wanted to know if you wanted to be my.. date.. hehe" He said slowly and disconfidently.

Daphne stood there shocked and speechless for a moment "ummm yea sure id love to"

He breathed out a heavy sigh of relief "Well then it's a date" He smiled.

He let me finish getting ready and waited for me in the hotel lobby. When he flew me to the party (and I mean literally flew) it was the most thrilling time of my life. Even better then flying with Puck. As we entered the golden egg we saw that everyone had already arrived. Many people were dancing ad laughing while others, mostly older people, just sat and talked about....whatever old people talk about, i guess. A slow song began to play and Mustardseed generously looked at me and bowed.

"Would you care to dance fair maiden" He asked like a true gentlemen

"Why yes kind sir" I giggled as we waltzed onto the dance floor. Out of the corner of my eye I could see Puck and Sabrina. Dancing. TOGETHER! I knew they liked each other. I could see their foreheads leaning against each others and watched Sabrina giggle whenever Puck spoke. I even heard him whisper "Your the prettiest girl here tonight" in her ear. She blushed at that.

Daphne turned back to Mustardseed and looked staight into his eyes. The just stood there for a long time, just staring at eachother. He seemeed a little confused the more he stared at her.

"What's wrong" she asked him. "Wh-What's on your face" . I looked into a mirror hanging on the wall next to us. My reflection wasn't different from when we had left the hotel. She might have smudged her make-up though. Wait a second maybe he's talking about my make-up she thought.

" Are you talking about my make-up?" she asked. "Um well yea. I'm not saying your ugly. I really truly think your not, but I think you look much much prettier without all that make-up smeared on your face." He said truthfully.

"Really?" she questioned, "Yout think I'm pretty?" She could feel a smile forming on her lips. Finally!, she thought, someone thinks I'm pretty!

"Well, when you take off all that make-up I can look you in the eye and tell you what I really think" He said. Daphne's stomach opened up and a million butterflies were let loose. She rushed to the bathroom to wipe off her make-up and hurried back to find Mustardseed waiting exactly where she'd left him.

"Now what were you saying" Sh asked with a knowing grin and a devilish glint in her eye.

"What I was saying is that you have a rare beauty. I dont think your pretty, I think your beautiful. You know what with the way your looks are presented ever so perfectly, someone calling you beautiful would be an insult. You Daphne Grimm are quite the special human and everyone who has ever met you would know what a beauty you are. You are the most perfect girl in the world and most definately the prettiest girl here." He said.

Daphne was so shocked, she could actually feel tears of joy forming in her eyes. so like in a great book, Dahne took this moment of silence and kissed him. He didn't pull away. In fact he let her kiss him for the next 45 seconds because come on eveyone needs to breathe. right?

As they pulled away from the kiss they heard a chorus of awwwww's from behind her but she was to deep into Mustardseed eyes that she didn't notice. THe last thing she heard that night was after the kiss when mustardseed whispered in her ear

"I love you and nothing will change that. I love you till the sun burns out. till the waters remain still, till my brother acts mature for a whole day,(he chuckled slightly) I love you till your pretty wears out, and we both know that will never happen"

What a perfect way to end the night.

What did you think? was it... ood?bad?weird?awkward?different? or just plain wrong? Review!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
