A/N: Wow, I haven't updated this story in awhile. Sorry about the wait, but I hope you enjoy this chapter.


Chapter 10: Sora's Amazing Surprise

"Sora!" Rossetta cried out as she ran towards her. She had just finished her last performance of Little Red Riding Hood and Rossetta was filled with joy.

Sora turned around, seeing that her friend was extremely giddy for no apparent reason today. "Rossetta?" She said hesitantly.

"I'm so excited!"

"Yes, I kind of figured that out, Rossetta, but why?"

"I got asked out!"

"What?!" Just then, Anna, Mia, and May walked by, hearing the entire conversation. May came waddling over to where Sora and Rossetta were standing and butted in.

"So, where are you going? With who?" She asked curiously.

"Um, he's a minor cast member and I'm not quite sure where we're going yet."

May nodded.

"Well, congratulations Rossetta!" Sora exclaimed. "I have to go now." Sora added quickly, but as she turned to leave May caught up with her.

"And where are you going, young missie?"

"Um, to meet Leon." Sora laughed hesitantly.

"Ooo." Everyone laughed.

Leon's Dorm...

"Thank you all for coming." Leon presented himself confidently, but as he looked into the tiny crowd in his dorm he sighed. "Okay, Layla and Yuri, thank you for coming."

"Yea, exactly what is this?" Yuri sighed.

"A very important discussion is taking place right now. Sora's coming in an hour, just listen to me right now, okay."

"Fine."

"As you know, Sora and I have been "dating" for about a year and a half now. You guys have seen all of the highlights and the downs to it and I sent you hear to ask you a question." Leon paused and looked at Layla and Yuri's expression.

"And what is it?" Layla finally said.

"Do you think I should ask her to marry me?" Leon asked.

Both Layla and Yuri jumped out of their seats. Yuri spit out his water and Layla jumped into a corner.

"WHAT?!"

"Well, you heard me. Do you think I should?"

Yuri finally got himself cleaned up and started to walk toward Leon. "Well, it depends. Do you love her? Can you live without her?"

"Yes. No." Leon said. "Yes to the love thing. No to the live without her thing." Leon added at the end.

"I get it." Yuri interrupted. "Well, then of course you should."

"Definitely." Layla agreed. "You know at first, I thought you called me down from New York to tell me some crap about yourself, but I guess I was wrong."

Leon nodded nervously. "Now, can you guys help me plan?"

Layla and Yuri looked at each other and nodded.

"Thank you." Leon said and straightened himself up. "So, what's first?"

Back at Sora's Dorm...

Sora fiddled with the knob of her dorm room before walking in. Then, as she finally got herself to twist the knob, she was met by a familiar voice.

"Why, hello Sora."

"Fool?!" Sora said, a bit surprised. "Don't tell me you're trying to peep again!"

She threw a pillow at him before he could answer. He was nailed to the wall until she took it off.

"I'm not here to peep." Fool replied. "I have some important fortune telling to do right now."

Sora sat on her bed. "Oh."

Fool straightened himself up and continued. "Sora, as the spirit of the stage, I must remind you to always keep your mind steady, okay?"

"Okay."

"So, if you get a surprise, you won't get distracted, right?"

"Right."

"Good."

"Wait, I don't get it."

"Um, well, that's it. You'll be getting quite a few surprises this week." Fool said. "In fact, you already got one."

"I did?"

"Yea, Rossetta having a date, remember?"

"Oh, yea!" Sora exclaimed. "I wonder what else I'll get."

Fool shrugged. "Hey, don't you have a date with Leon tonight?"

"Yea at 8 o'cloc-" Sora didn't continue as she checked her watch. It was 8:01.

"Oh my god! I'm late...again." Sora exclaimed and ran out of her dorm. She ran as fast as she could, reaching Leon's dorm at around 8:07.

Just then, Leon stepped out. "Oh, hello Sora." He said before he bent down and kissed her. It was deep and very sensual.

Leon broke it off, however. "Come on, let's go."

Sora agreed and they walked off.

The Next Morning...

Sora pranced into the cafeteria, where she was greeted by her friends.

"Hey Sora!" May hollered over everyone else.

"Hey you guys." She smiled as she sat down. Leon hadn't arrived yet.

"How was your date with Leon?" Anna asked.

"Um, great! Hey Rossetta, what about you and that other cast member?!" Sora winked.

"It was amazing. First, we went out for dinner at this fancy restaurant. Then, we took a night stroll at the park. In fact, now that I think of it, it was kind of like you and Leon's first date, Sora!"

Sora smiled. Then, she began to look around the cafeteria. Leon still hadn't arrived and she started to get worried. "Have any of you seen Leon?"

"Uh, no."

"Um, I have to go you guys, but I'll talk to you later, okay?"

"Bye."

Sora walked out of the cafeteria and turned left, heading toward the dorms. As she reached his dorm, she could hear voices inside. She thought she heard not only Leon, but Layla and Yuri too.

"So, you're planning on proposing tonight?" Layla asked.

"Yes." Leon replied. "I'm going to do it when Kaleido Stage is fully lit."

"Interesting idea. Sora always loved Kaleido Stage at night." Yuri commented.

Sora took her ear away from the door. Leon is going to propose?!

A/N: Sorry, this chapter was a little bit shorter than most. (Well, I think it is.) There were a lot of transitions too. Any who, I hoped you enjoyed it and the story is really going to end on a high note. There will probably be two more chapters and I might do an epilogue (you know like 5 years later...type thing) if anyone wants me too. But if not, I'm going to focus on finishing up 'Come Back, My Love' and start updating chapters for 'How To Get A Guy In 10 Days.'
