Now hopefully she knew. If not, then she was as clueless as Puck thought if by now she didn't get the fact Mustardseed didn't have a girlfriend. Like, if he did, he would have said something like, "Oh cool it's sweet your together," Instead, he's like, "So who's N?'' in an envious tone. Shame, he thought. Step Two was about to be planned. To get back at Mustardseed and Daphne was the first part of the revenge. And the second part of it was for Fluff Boo's sake! He was so not afraid to say that out loud.
Daphne was cleaning her room (something she only did when she was upset) when Mustardseed came in.
''Hey Daphne," he said. "I wanted to apologize for how I was acting lately." She stopped and looked up.
"Really?" she said, looking at him.
"Yeah. I was rude and immature about it. I should've been happy for you. So congratulations!"
She smiled. Well, now it probably looked like she really was going out with someone with the letter N. But who knows? I can use it for my benefit, she thought.
"Thanks!" she said. Then she frowned a bit. No, that wasn't right. She didn't want Mustardseed thinking she was going out with N. Whoever he was. "I mean, thanks for apologizing. But I'm really not going out with someone! It was a prank! Puck pulled it on me when we were walking! I didn't see it before really!"
He smiled. "Alright, I'll believe you. I'm glad you're not going out with anyone." This time he didn't try to cover up what he was saying. "I think it's time I ask you. I've been waiting for the right moment ever since I came here."
Daphne frowned. "Mustardseed-"
Mustardseed held up his hands. "Daphne, I swear on my father's grave I'm not dating anyone. That day...I was distracted... by you."
She felt her heart pounding. "Really?" she said, letting herself feel relieved and happy.
He nodded. "Yes. So I wanted to ask you something."
Is he going to ask me to marry him? she thought. She wouldn't mind. You could get married in Faerie and it was perfectly normal. She would have to leave Sabrina but she could always visit right?
Mustardseed looked down on the floor and smiled nervously. Then he moved closer to her. He put his arms around her. Then he said, "Well, in Faerie, every year, there's an annual festival. A fairy that just turned a certain age can go. And they can bring the person they love."
Daphne blushed. Mustardseed continued, " And I want to ask if you would like to go with me,"
"Yes!" she squealed. "I would love to!"
"But there's one thing," he said. "When a fairy brings someone they love, the person has to love them back. Then, at the end of the festival, the person they love has to decide if they want to stay with their lover or not. If they do, they go away to a magical place where they're together forever with no one in the way. Or they go back to whatever life they were in and the person they love is gone."
"Gone?" Daphne said nervously.
"Oh no, not gone like passed away. Like away from your life. If you change your mind a year later, there's always the next festival."
"Oh," she said. Then she smiled. "I would love to come!"
"Great!" he grinned. "See you there! It's in one week.''
Daphne had been so excited about the festival, she didn't realize what she had done. Then later, she thought, What will I do about Puck and Sabrina? I have to help them first! She had one week to fix them for each other.
What she didn't know was there was a helper in the house already that would keep her from helping.
Plan Two ready for launch, thought Puck. Oh yeah... Heheheā¦
