Chapter 8

Wes was still in his room crying, he took a deep breath and then stopped finally. He then heard a knock at the door and asked, "Who is it?"

"My name is Maddie dear." he heard the voice answer.

Wes walked over and opened the door, he gasped when he saw Maddie as a walking talking teapot along with Dani the tea cup, other moving objects such as milk and sugar.

"I thought you might like a spot of tea." Maddie said with a warm smile.

Wes stepped back and stuttered, "But….y-y-you're a…a…a…"

He suddenly bumped into something behind him, he turned around to see a green skinned female ghost with long black hair and wearing blue Arabian clothes, her name was Desiree the wishing ghost.

"Oh! Careful." Desiree said with a slight laugh.

Wes sat down on the bed holding his head and said, "Ghosts! This is impossible!"

"My name is Desiree dear. I know it seems impossible but here we are." Desiree said.

"I told you he was handsome mommy." Dani said with a smile.

Maddie poured some tea from her spout into Dani and then the sugar placed a teaspoon of its cotenants in her and so did milk. Dani then carefully jumped towards Wes trying not to spill any tea.

"Thank you ma'am." Wes said and picked Dani up and had a sip of the warm tea.

"Wanna see me do a trick?" Dani asked.

Wes held her out and nodded. Dani took a deep breath and then made the tea inside her bubble.

"DANI!" Maddie scolded. Dani stopped and said sheepishly, "Sorry.."

"That was a very brave thing you did my dear." Maddie said. Desiree then said giving Wes a sad smile, "We all think so.."

"But I lost my mom. I'll never see her again and I lost my dreams, everything." Wes said looking sad again.

"Cheer up child. I know things seem bad now but it'll turn out alright in the end." Maddie said.

Wes felt a little better and asked, "You really think so?"

"You'll see. Oh! Listen to me jabbering on while there's a supper to get on the table." Maddie said and then left the room, she called out, "Come on Dani!"

Dani smiled and left while yelling, "Bye!"

Wes stood up as Desiree said, "Now what shall we dress you in for dinner? Oh don't worry Wes I know you're gender fluid and we have dresses and tuxedos so let's see what I can whip up."

She cast her magic and conjured a short black dress with a pink and yellow corset with long red high heel boots and purple gloves.

"Here we go. You'll look absolutely gorgeous in this one!" Desiree said. Wes stopped her and said, "I really appreciate it Desiree but I'm not going to dinner.."

"But you must." Desiree said.

They both then heard Clockwork come in and he announced, "Dinner is served!"

Ten minutes had passed and Wes had still not come down to the dining room, Phantom began to become impatient and angry he started pacing in front of the fireplace where Jack and Maddie were standing on top of the bench part.

"What's taking so long? I told him to come down! Why isn't he here yet?!" Phantom asked becoming angrier.

"Oh try and be patient dear. The boy has lost his mother and his freedom all in one day, he's still a bit upset." Maddie said.

"Uh Phantom? Have you thought that this boy could be the one to break the spell?" Jack asked.

"Of course I have! I'm not a fool!" Phantom answered raising his voice and stopped pacing.

"Good! So you fall in love with him, he falls in love with you and poof! The spell is broken. We shall be human again by midnight!" Jack said getting excited.

"Jack dear remember these things do take time" Maddie said. Jack then said, "Which is something we don't really have because the rose has already begun to wilt."

"Oh it's no use! He's so handsome and I'm…well look at me! I'm nothing but a freak!" Phantom shouted.

"You just need to help him see past all that" Maddie said. Phantom then said, "I don't know how."

Maddie frowned and jumped off the bench and sat on the table while saying, "Well you can start by making yourself more presentable."

"Straighten up and try to act like a gentlemen." Maddie said and then Phantom straightened up.

Jack then came down and said, "Ah yes and when he comes in give him a dashing smile. Give it a try."

Phantom smiled widely not very comfortable with it though he dropped it as Maddie said, "But don't frighten the poor boy."

"Impress him with your regular wit." Jack then said. Maddie then said, "But be gentle."

"Shower him with compliments." Jack said and then Maddie added, "But be sincere."

"And above all…YOU MUST CONTROL YOUR TEMPER!" They both pressed.

They all heard the door open and Phantom looked up thinking it was Wes but frowned when he saw it was just Clockwork who floated in nervously.

"Good evening." Clockwork said.

"Well where is he?" Phantom asked.

"Who? Oh the boy! Well with circumstances being what they are….uh well he…oh…he's not coming." Clockwork answered slowly.

"WHAT!" Phantom screamed in anger and then busted out the door flying up the stairs towards Wes's room with Clockwork carrying Jack and Maddie trying to calm him down.

"Phantom! Your highness! Let's not be hasty!" Clockwork begged.

Phantom landed at Wes's door and banged on it three times. He then shouted, "I thought I told you to come down to dinner!"

"I'm not hungry!" Wes shouted back.

Clockwork, Jack and Maddie arrived shaking their heads at Phantom's anger knowing that this wasn't going well.

"YOU COME OUT OR I'LL PHASE IN AND DRAG YOU OUT MYSELF!" Phantom demanded.

"Phantom I could be wrong but that may not be the best way to win the boy's affection." Jack suggested nervously. Clockwork then pleaded, "Please attempt to be a gentlemen."

"But he is being so difficult!" Phantom retorted through gritted teeth.

"Gently. Gently." Maddie pressed.

Phantom then tried, "Will you come down to dinner?"

"No!" Wes replied.

Phantom was about to get really angry when Clockwork said, "Try again but this time a bit more gentle and add a please."

"It would give me great pleasure if you would join me for dinner…please?" Phantom asked trying to control his temper.

"No thank you!" Wes replied. Phantom then got really angry and shouted, "You can't stay in there forever!"

"Yes I can!" Wes retorted. Phantom then screamed, "FINE! THEN GO AHEAD AND STARVE!"

He turned to the others and said, "If he doesn't eat with me then he doesn't eat at all."

He then stormed out of the hallway and slammed the door exiting the east wing, the force caused a vase to fall off a pedestal and break.

"Oh dear! That didn't go very well at all." Maddie said.

"Jack stand watch at the door and let me know at once if he comes out." Clockwork said. Jack stood at the door and said, "You can count on me Clocky!"

"Come on Maddie we better get downstairs and start cleaning up." Clockwork said and they both left.

Phantom slammed the doors open to his room which was all ripped up and most of the furniture was destroyed. He then shouted as he walked up to the table which had the enchanted rose in the vase and said in anger, "I asked him nicely and yet he refuses! Well what does he want me to do? Beg!"

He picked up the small silver handheld mirror and commanded, "Show me the boy!"

The glass swirled green and revealed Wes in his room talking to Desiree who said, "You know the master is not so bad once you get to know him. Why don't give him a chance?"

"I don't want to get to know him! I don't want to have anything to do with him!" Wes answered.

Phantom felt pain in his chest as he heard those words, he placed the mirror down gently and looked down as he said, "I'm only fooling myself. He'll never see me as anything but a monster. A freak!"

He looked at the rose and watched in despair as another petal fell to the table.

"It's hopeless.." Phantom whispered as he placed his hand on his head and looked down more in despair than before.
