Hey guys! Please relax, kick back, and enjoy! Review too!
*Sigh* I don't normally say it but you know what I'm gonna say so, just imagine it there with your brain! :)
P.S. *SPOILER* Just cuz I'm making May sing a Colbie Caillat song doesn't mean I think May would sound like her singing, it's just the song describes how she feels about Drew. :) *DISCLAIMER* I do not own the song by Colbie either! :D
May's POV
It was today, I woke up bright and early headed downstairs didn't bother to wait for anyone, ate breakfast quickly, and went to help with setting up the Gala. It was tiring work but it was worth it. The ballroom looked dazzling. There were red rose garlands above from each balcony moving as if they were drapes. The crystal chandelier was brought and hung 70 feet above the ground, the gold painted floors were polished until they shined, and the stage, I changed the curtains to a pure white dove color. I stepped back to the entrance door into the ballroom and gazed at it's beauty. It was like it sparkled for some reason.
"Oh my! It's gorgeous May!" Mrs. Hayden shouted, running over to me, putting her hands on my shoulders in approval. I smiled back, "May, the Gala starts in just 2 hours! You need to go get ready right now!" She screeched,
My eyes widened at the sight of the clock, "3:00 pm?! The time went by so fast!" Mrs. Hayden nodded and rushed me up to my room, I saw Dawn there, she was already ready, and she looked radiant. She was wearing a cherry blossom colored sweetheart neckline strapless dress, with her hair in a bun at the back, and an actual cherry blossom in her hair. I gasped at how beautiful she looked, but Mrs. Hayden didn't look fazed, or even in the slighted bit surprised.
I was confused after Mrs. Hayden didn't blink at the sight of Dawn, "Now May, you go put on your dress, the make-up artist is in there, she will apply your make-up and there's also a hair stylist, she'll do your hair. Come out when you're done, Dawn and I will be waiting." She said motioning me to the dressing room.
I slip on the dress I proclaimed 'the most beautiful thing I had ever beheld' and go to the make-up artist first, then the hair stylist. I come out of the dressing room, and, this time, Mrs. Hayden gasps. My dress was powder blue, strapless, and it looked like it glistened with sparkles, my hair was curled, and I had sapphire earrings on, and was wearing a necklace with a clear sapphire that went just below the tip of my collar bone. I was wearing french rose colored lipstick, and blush with a hint of Amaranth pink. Dawn came up to me and said, "May, you're like a spring rose on a silver moon lit night." Her voice was full of awe and inspiration. I blinked, did I really look that great? Mrs. Hayden came over to me and said, "May you look out of this world, Mr. Hayden and I have a surprise for you," I closed my eyes, heard the door open and close, and felt the presence of someone familiar standing right in front of me. "May open your eyes now," Mrs. Hayden says, I open my eyes and I have a heart attack, but soon the heart attack fades and I smile the biggest grin I have ever smiled, "Misty!" I scream in surprise. I rushed into her and hug her tight.
"Hey May! I haven't seen you in forever! You didn't even say bye to me when you left!" Misty said with a hint of hurt in her voice, "I know, I'm so sorry Misty! I'm such a bad friend!" I say hiding my face in her forehead.
"Oh May! You've always been such a drama queen!" She chuckled. I felt horrible still but then I noticed, Misty was wearing a gorgeous coral pink dress. Her hair was down, instead of a side ponytail like usual.
It was only an hour until the Gala started, so in that time, Dawn, Misty, and I, caught up and got to know each other really well, it was as if we were really good old friends.
It was only 15 minutes when Drew came down, wearing a sharp back tuxedo with a red rose pinned to his blazer's pocket, usually where a handkerchief would be. Ash arrived, also wearing a sharp tux but he had a white one on, he was also with someone, another boy with dark purple hair, and grim expressions. Drew, Ash, and the unknown guy talked like they were really good old friends.
I made Misty and Dawn come with me to see who the mystery guy was, and that's when everything, and everyone clicked. Ash and Misty immediately looked at each other, and Dawn and the mystery guy also immediately looked at each other. Drew and I looked at each other too, but not in the same way as the other four. After we looked at each other we turned away, and that was when everyone else snapped out of their faze. I broke the silence and introduced Misty to Ash,
"Ash this is Misty, my best friend. And Misty, this is Ash, Drew's best friend." They shook hands and didn't let go until after a 2 minute period. I had a clue that Dawn was interested in whoever the mystery guy was, but she's engaged to Drew, so it would be like cheating, so I tried to ignore that part, but Drew swiftly went over to them and did something I never would've thought he would do.
Drew's POV
Dawn seemed to be very interested in Paul and Paul looked interested on Dawn, so I quickly glided over to them and introduced Dawn to Paul, considering it looked as though May wasn't going to.
"Dawn this is Paul, one of my life-long friends. Paul this is Dawn." I left out the fiancé part, because that bull crap was going to be no more soon. Dawn and Paul hit it off, and I stood there with them, while I glanced over to look at May. She was talking to Misty and Ash, they seemed to be having a really good conversation, since May was laughing. The sight of her smiling made me ecstatic. By this time the Gala had already started and soon May would have to sing. Angela was later in the night.
Dawn's POV
Who?Drew? Sorry never heard of him. I could not stop thinking about Paul, and we could not stop talking to each other, I don't give a crap about the whole engagement thing anymore, I want Paul. I' going to call of this engagement tomorrow with the Haydens. They are a wonderful family, but it's obvious Drew and May love each other, and I like Paul. So it works out for all of us. I found my true love at first sight.
May's POV
It was 2 hours into the Gala already, and I had to get up on the stage and preform now. I picked this song out exactly for how I feel about Drew, and before I started I said in the microphone, "This song is for someone special." I had Dawn and Misty as back up singers, and we began.
You're stuck on me and my laughing eyes
I can't pretend though I try to hide - I like you
I like you.
I think I felt my heart skip a beat
I'm standing here and I can hardly breathe - you got me
You got me.
The way you take my hand is just so sweet
And that crooked smile of yours it knocks me off my feet
(When I sang this part I was looking straight at Drew, and he smirked.)
Oh, I just can't get enough
How much do I need to fill me up.
It feels so good it must be love
It's everything that I've been dreaming of.
I give up. I give in. I let go. Let's begin.
Cause no matter what I do,
Oh (oh) my heart is filled with you.
I can't imagine what it'd be like
Living each day in this life - without you.
Without you.
One look from you I know you understand
This mess we're in you know is just so out of hand.
I hope we always feel this way (I know we will)
And in my heart I know that you will always stay
Oh, I just can't get enough
How much do I need to fill me up.
It feels so good it must be love
I give up. I give in. I let go. Let's begin.
Cause no matter what I do,
Oh (oh)
You got me. You got me.
Oh (oh)
You got me. You got me.
My song was over, and Drew was just staring at me blankly, he knew I directed the song to him. He looked at me and walked away through the crowd. My heart stopped once again. It was like he rejected me. My head hangs down, as I manage a small bow and exit the stage from a full house clapping. I then run out of the house crying, and found myself in the place that I thought was in my dreams. I was at the fountain with roses in it, surrounded by Magnolia and Weeping Willow trees on a silver moon lit night. Just like my dream. How could I have been so dim? He's engaged after all, why did I even have the guts to be able to sing a song for him?
Drew's POV
May had sang a song I just instantly knew was directed towards me. After she finished, I was speechless, and the only thing that came to my mind was that I want to be with May, and that I need to tell my mother I don't want to marry Dawn. So I walked straight through the crowd. I couldn't find my mother anywhere, so I went to the last place I would ever check, my father's study. I open the mahogany door and find my mother sitting there at my father's desk in his chair, sipping tea.
"Oh hello Drew, have you been enjoying the Gala? The song May just sung was phenomenal, it was like she was singing her heart out." She said very cooly.
"About that," I start, "I don't want to marry Dawn, and I never did. I want to be with May."
"Well then, so you don't like Dawn?"
"No! I didn't say I didn't like Dawn! I don't like her that way, and I most certainly don't love her that way!"
Her eyes became wide, "Don't you dare take that tone with me!" She raised her voice and stood up.
"I don't want to marry Dawn, and that's final. Dawn and Paul like each other, and I like May."
"That's how it should be." She said sitting back down. I was confused,
"Wait what? What do you mean?"
"I wanted to see if you would disobey and you did. You really do care for May, and it looks like I caught three fish at the same time. I hired May to stay here and teach Angela how to sing, along the way you two fell in love, and Dawn found someone too."
"Wait, so I was never supposed to marry Dawn in the first place?"
"Yes. Now go get May, I'm sure she's a whole bundle of confused feelings wherever she's crying."
I nodded, and felt like I was struck with lightning. I knew exactly where May was, and I ran as fast as I could to her. I stopped abruptly, and saw May standing there.
I put my hands in my pockets, "Hey blind eyes," I say remembering the time where we first met, and I called her blind. She turned around with tears running straight down her cheeks, she could have never looked so promising ever again on that silver night.
May's POV
I turned around to see Drew standing there with his hands in his pockets. I paused for a few minutes, and we just stared at each other for a while.
"It's called off ya know." He said looking off to the side. Called off? What is? The engagement?! But I might be getting ahead of myself, so I replied by asking, "what's called off?"
"You really are stupid," he said walking up to me, and grabbing me in his arms hugging me, "the engagement is called off, I said no to marrying Dawn." He whispered in my ear.
"Well why would you do that? Dawn is great, she's a whole lot better than a certain someone I know," I say looking away from him in his arms.
"Yeah sure she's alright, but in my eyes that certain someone is a million times better than her," he smirked.
I looked up at him, "Drew, you don't want me. I was a horrible, selfish, and arrogant person. I don't deserve you."
"Yeah I know that. You were that kind of person but now, you are someone whose kind, generous, considerate, and passionate. If anything, it's me who doesn't deserve you. But I want you anyway fat blueberries." He then leaned in toward me, and our lips touched, it was something I wanted to last forever. After we kissed I was still in his arms, I looked at him softly, and he said, "Yeah you have a lot of flaws too."
My eyes widened, he just completely ruined the mood! I say to him, "Ugh! You just ruined the mood! Also, don't forget you have many flaws you need to work on too!"
"You got me," he smirked.
After that Drew and I made our way back to the ballroom, only to see Misty, Ash, Dawn, and Paul haven't taken their eyes off of each other. Mr. and Mrs. Hayden looked at us in approval seeing us holding hands. As we make our way through the crowd Angela gets up on stage, ready to sing her song when she screams in excitement, "FINALLY! You and Drew are together!" Pointing at us. Dawn looked at us, and was so happy it was as though nothing would ever go wrong. It was perfect.
Okay! Thanks for reading! That was a good story! And I finally got it out of my head! :D I don't know what I'll do next, maybe another fanfic? I got a billion more ideas stuck in my head, so who knows where it will take us! Bye!
