Chapter IV: Danced With You Once Upon A Dream

FD: I know the title of my chapters are long, but so what. At least they're written.


Sarah entered the ballroom. It was amazing. It was just like the concert hall at Heaven Light Concert Hall. It was amazing. And to believe this belonged to only a boy of fifteen. Next thing Sarah knew, she was dancing and singing alone in the ballroom.

"I know you

I've danced with you once upon a dream

I know you

The gleam in your eyes are so unforgettably."

"Ha ha ha," came a voice. Sarah stopped abruptly and turned around. Robert was clapping as he entered the ballroom. Sarah's face turned red fast. "May I have this dance, miss?" he asked, holding out his hand to her. Sarah smiled and took it.

Robert led her to the center of the ballroom floor, and almost instinctively, Sarah danced the Waltz with him. She had never danced with a boy before, and it felt kind of weird to have Robert's hand on her waist, especially since she was very modest of being touched. As Robert led her and allowed her to let go of his hand, both of them were blushing.

"You dance pretty good," Robert said. Sarah blushed and turned away.

"S-so do you," she said. She began walking away and left the ballroom. But she did not head up to her room, nor did she go anywhere. As a matter of fact, she stayed in the hall, her mind deep in thought. Could it be she might have feelings for Robert that she allowed herself to dance with him, and to have danced so gracefully? It could be possible. She would normally hit anyone who touched her like that, dancing or not, and beat a boy up if they touched her like that so bad they would move. But she didn't even touch him.

"I know you. I've danced with you once upon a dream. I know you, the gleam in your eyes are so forgettable," Sarah sang again. She suddenly had an idea for a song. But she had to tell the others.

Sarah then ran down the hall and rode the stair railing down to the main hall of the castle and burst through the doors. She had to test this song out. Normally when she had an idea for a song, she would go into her backyard and sing how she wanted it to go, and if birds didn't come and sing with her, the song wouldn't be a success. She ran out into the courtyard, and began dancing in the grass while singing the song she wanted to make.

"I know you.

I've danced with you once upon a dream

I know you

I've danced with you once upon a dream

I know you

I've danced with you once upon a dream

I know you

The gleam in your eyes are so unforgettably

"Once upon a dream

In a magical kingdom

A beautiful princess fell into a lonely sleep

Only kiss from a handsome prince

Could wake her

So we could tell her

How lovely she is

"I know you

I've danced with you once upon a dream

I know you

The gleam in your eyes are so unforgettably

"Once upon a dream

The visions are so demonically

I know you

I know what you do

You love me at once

The way you did once upon a dream

"I know you

I've danced with you once upon a dream

I know you

I've danced with you once upon a dream."

As Sarah sang this song as she danced, sure enough, birds flew around her, singing along with her. She laughed and danced and continued singing. It was so instinctively, singing and twirling around in the grass. But what she did not know was that, through one of the castle windows, watching and listening to her, was Robert. He smiled as he watched her. If she dreams of being a princess, she shall be one.


Sarah's hand fell gently and perfectly in Robert's as they danced in the ballroom, people watching them amusingly. It was like she was a princess being floated around by a prince. Her pink dress swaying around her ankles so perfectly. And as she smiled and stared into Robert's eyes, she felt the ground disappear under her and they were dancing on a cloud in the sky. It was so magical. And when they stopped, Robert's smile disappeared from his face, but not from his eyes. He lowered his face to hers and before their lips could touch, Sarah found herself in her bedroom, lying on her back in her bed, the sun streaming into her eyes.

Next to her was something amazing. A bouquet of beautiful roses wrapped in clear see-though paper. It was so beautiful. It would be like in a fairy tale where the prince would come at night to see the princess while she slept, and always left a bouquet of roses on her pillow next to her. It was so romantic.

Sarah placed the bouquet down and got up and dressed. Then she approached the balcony and opened it. It felt so alive to be outside to her now. Before she was just a normal gothic girl with a hidden sensitive side. But she couldn't help falling in love. It was like life started over for her. It was like she was free from everything. No one could controll her, nothing could stop her from doing anything. It was amazing to feel like this. She had never felt so free, so relaxed, so... so... so free from everything.

"Sarah, good morning!" came a voice. Sarah looked down to see Robert smiling at her. He was slightly blushing. Sarah waved at him. Yeah, she knew she was in love.


FD: Like I said, I do not like Robert! But I was left with no options, so don't think I do, 'cause I don't.
