Every young girl dreams about their Prince Charming. They dream about a man coming to sweep them off their feet, to make them uncontrollably happy and make their dreams come true.

But.

They soon learn through age that these stories from Disney are lies and that guys don't act the way they do in movies and that their Prince Charming isn't going to come. And slowly they realize that they don't need to wait for the Prince to be happy and that happiness can come from other things.

But.

In the deep recesses of their hearts and minds, they still cling to the idea of their Prince Charming. They cling to the ideals of someone who is smart, handsome, nice, kind, sweet, charming, protective and just plain wonderful. And they learn eventually that they are looking for someone perfect, someone who is a "Prince" but rather someone who is perfect for them and that person doesn't need to be smart, handsome, nice, kind, sweet, charming, protective and just plain wonderful because that perfect person for them with all their flaws will be a thousand times better than the perfect Prince Charming.

Lilly was one of these girls.

She, like many other little girls, watched Disney movies that put ideas into their mind about the perfect Prince and she went through Elementary school dreaming of this Prince while slowly learning about how gross boys are. It wasn't until she got into high school and started dating did Lilly realize that although boys weren't as gross as they were in Elementary school, they weren't anything close to what she expected in a Prince Charming.

Her first boyfriend, his name was Jeremy, was rude, clingy and just plain awful. He was Japanese (so her parents approved) and she had been introduced to him through a friend (he went to the other High School in the area). Despite all his flaws, he was funny and nice to her so when he asked her out she had agreed in a heartbeat. They lasted about a month but she soon realized that he was too clingy and judgmental of her friends (he considered them too strange) so she broke up with him.

Her second boyfriend, his name was Nathan, asked her out in the second half of her freshmen school year. He was in his sophomore year so he was charming in his own way and a part of her group of friends so he didn't have any problems with the quirks she was beginning to develop. She had fallen quickly for him and given him her virginity one night in his parent's basement when he had told her he loved her. She didn't know what love felt like so she bought it. He broke up with her a month later though they lasted three months more than her first boyfriend and she got to graffiti his locker.

Her third boyfriend, his name was Yuki, asked her out in the summer between her freshmen and sophomore year. It turned out that he only asked her out because he wanted to get closer to her friend Thea. She liked him because he treated her like a princess and made her feel like she was everything to him. But then she learnt the truth when Thea broke up with her boyfriend and he dumped her without another thought and started dating Thea two weeks later. Lilly decided to not speak with the girl again and Thea ended up hanging out with a different crowd in their sophomore year.

Her fourth boyfriend, his name was Derrick, asked her out around December time of her Junior year. She had sworn off boyfriends for sophomore year after the disaster of Yuki who ended up trying to crawl back to her but she just lit his coat on fire to get him to leave her house. Derrick had been persistent in his attempt to ask her out. He was charming too and blessed with good looks that many girls asked her why she was being such a prude about dating him. (If only they knew the truth about her sophomore year but Lilly was careful about who she slept with). She finally gave in when he interrupted a school assembly (he was President of Student Council) and asked her out in front of everyone in their school. He showed her what it meant to be treated right or at least what he thought was right up until the point when he had accidentally slept with a guy in his student council. She didn't break up with him immediately until he did it again so she dumped his ass but she didn't want him to be completely ostracized so she pretended that it was a mutual thing. He bragged that he dumped her and she let him because she was nice and felt bad for him.

Her fifth boyfriend, his name was Anthony, asked her out a few months before prom so of course he was her date to that as well. She loved Anthony because Anthony was her best friend. He had been there through all of her last boyfriends and had stayed with her even when she had been laughed at and made into a social pariah. It was always Anthony, Ivy and her. Ivy had her own boyfriend and always made comments about how her and Anthony were so cute and adorable and stuff. But Lilly never saw it because even though they kissed and held hands and slept together; Lilly didn't really love him like he loved her and she knew it but she couldn't bear to break his heart so she said yes. At the time, Lilly thought that this was it; this was her Prince Charming. But she didn't feel the same way so when they graduated, he agreed that it was better if they broke up since she was going to Georgia and he was going to New York. She still talks to him on occasion.

So by the time she got to Barden University, Lilly was completely disillusioned by the idea of love, relationships and anything to do with Prince Charmings. She didn't date instead focusing on being part of the Bellas and actually finding people who sort of got her and were equally as crazy. She will admit that the first six months were the hardest because even with the Bellas she got that "Wow… you're weird" look. But slowly they all became closer. Still, she kept her mind focused on her school work and on the Bellas despite more guys coming to ask her if she wanted to go out. It wasn't until semi-finals that Lilly felt a tug at her heartstrings. All it took were two words and five syllables.

"That's adorable."

She felt a warmth in her heart when Donald didn't look at her strangely or pull away like she was something that he could run away from or just stare in disgust, instead he looked at her like she was something worth figuring out. It was like he understood her. But nothing came of that until he came to sit with her one day in the quad, happy to sit in silence (unlike her previous boyfriends - who always wanted to talk). And then she found herself spending more time with him. He slowly integrated himself in her life like he really wanted to know the real Lilly Onakuramara. It wasn't until one day when they were saying bye after a day spend studying in the quad and he kissed her chastely on the cheek that she realized that she felt something … something more than just platonic friendship.

But she didn't tell anyone because of the oath and really she didn't want to pine over a guy in case he didn't end up feeling the same. She pretended that everything was okay and that she wasn't completely falling head over for heels for some guy who beat boxed all the time and wore large hipster glasses.

Donald.

He was different from her other boyfriends. He was nerdy and weird. He had a nerf gun underneath his bed along with his stash of comic books that are still in their plastic covers and in a suitcase. He could quote all the Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and Harry Potter movies. He listened to rap, pop, electronic, rock, classical and musicals. He read fantasy and sci-fi novels but he also on occasion read girlie books because his sister would recommend it. When he was worried or frustrated or in a contemplative mood, he tapped his fingers against anything almost unconsciously. When he was in a happy, playful or content mood, he would sing underneath his breath any song that happened to be stuck in his mind. When he was bored or tired, he would beat box to try and keep his mind active.

But what really made Donald different was the way he looked at her.

He looked at her like she was the only thing he could see in a room. They could be in a bar where there were tons of gorgeous women trying to hit on him or chat him up and she could be sitting with Fat Amy taking shots and just talking and he would stare at her, oblivious to all these women trying to get his attention. It was like she was all he needed. And an unexplainable warmth would grow from within her. It was the same when she would struggle to explain what she was thinking or how she was feeling and he would be able to just know exactly what she wanted or needed at that moment. He understood that she didn't like to speak because of her childhood so he didn't push her to speak, he just let her be. He knew her better than she knew herself.

He wasn't perfect. He had flaws, so many of them, like his inability to stop moving or singing or beat boxing. Or his need to read things out loud to understand them. Or his habit of biting his lip. Or his habit of speaking without thinking how it could come across to someone else. Or how he didn't like to talk about his emotions ever. Or his insecurity revolving around how people saw him and how he had an inexplicable need to impress people. Or how he tended to shut everyone out when he feels particularly emotional. Or his use of curse words in almost every sentence.

But Lilly knew that Donald was perfect for her because she loved him for all his flaws because they were the reason he was the way he was and he loved her for all her flaws, for all her quirks.

So maybe he wasn't a Prince Charming coming to save her from the end of the world but he was hers and he was all she wanted or needed.
