A Cinderella Story
Chapter 5

Sniff -scratch- sniff snicker sniff -scratch-
Something was tickling my nose.
My eyes snapped open, and the first thing I saw was David standing over me, holding the end of his braid over my nose, tickling it.
"What are you doing?" I asked through gritted teeth, upset that he had ruined my sleep.
"Waking you up Sleeping Beauty," he smiled.
"Ugh, wrong princess." I mumbled and sat up in bed. He laughed, and I shooed him away as I started to change.
I put on a pink tank top; with black flare jeans, and some white socks. Put my hair up in a clip and carefully put on some eyeliner, mascara, and foundation…and then I was out the door.
I smelled breakfast down stairs, and headed down to see what was cooking.
I looked around every corner on my way down, and cautiously peered into the kitchen.
"No one's going to kill you Cindi!" Eric joked, as I stepped in still looking around.
"Well you can't blame me."
"Hey Cindi, how ya feeling?" Duo asked
"Good, thanks Mr. Maxwell."
"Does your head hurt still? I have some aspirin." Trowa asked.
"No Mr. Barton. Thanks though,"
"Would you like anything to drink? Orange juice? Milk? Water?" Wufei asked
"Water would be fine. Thank you Mr. Chang."
I think it was then that I actually realized just how much Eric, Tai, and David were like their dads.
I sat down beside Eric, and I kind of felt my face flush from all the attention.
"What's for breakfast?"
"Pancakes and sausage." Tai replied putting a plate down in front of me.
"Thanks. So dad, when are we going?"
"When you're done I guess. The guys and me have to run into town any way."
"Right."
We finished breakfast and walked out side.
"Hey Heero lets take the motorcycles," Duo smirked
"Uh dad?" I looked at him nervously, as he agreed to Duos request.
"Don't worry Cindi. You can ride with me." Dad reassured. We went into the back garage where dad kept all of his 'special vehicles'. Trowa flicked on the light and my eyes nearly bulged when I saw how many 'special vehicles' there were.
"Do I get one of these when I'm old enough dad?" I asked tugging on his arm.
"Sure, which ever one you want." Then I hopped on the motorcycle behind dad, held on and then we were off. Tai, Eric, and David all had their own bikes. They must be 16 or older.
"Hold on Cindi!" my dad yelled and I noticed that my grip around his waist was slipping. I gripped harder and stayed that way all the way until we reached the mall.
"Ok, since you all have a way home, just call to tell us when your heading home. Alright?" Dad ordered.
"Yes sir" we chorused then headed into the gigantic building. Once inside, we stood at the entrance and blankly stared into the place.
"Where are we supposed to go?" I asked the three. They turned their heads to look at me.
"We thought you knew where you were going." Eric said, and I shrugged.
"I've never bought a dress."
"But you a 15 year old girl." David added
"So?"
"You've never owned a dress?"
"If I have I was too small to remember."
"Ok, well then lets start by looking for a dress shop." Tai suggested. We walked around looking into all of the stores, becoming more and more unsuccessful as we reached the end of the mall.
"Oh! Look! There's one!" I shouted spotting the Unique Dress shop .We reached the shop and peered inside. Inside I saw some of the most beautiful dresses I've ever seen. All around there were dresses that were of all different colors, shiny, dull poofy, straight…everything.
Hours later…"Com'on Cindi! We've been here for three hours! People are looking! Besides you already have four dresses you want!" David whined from the other side of the dressing room. "By the way, we called the house and left a message. No one was home."
"Chill, I want to try on one more then we're outta here!" I called back, and I heard the boys cheer. I zipped up this new dress, and looked at my reflection. This dress was pure white; it had slightly poofy shoulders, and short sleeves. It fell to the floor at just the perfect height, and with all the stuffing underneath the dress it poofed out slightly.
"Ok, I'm ready." I said and opened the door. The guys stood out there waiting for me (For every dress I tried they judged it. Thumbs up, or thumbs down. For the other three I got thumbs up but for this dress I certainly wasn't expecting this answer…)
…Nothing…
"What's the matter? Is it unzipped or something? Is there something on my face?" I asked a little unnerved by their reaction.
"No, no Cindi that's…" Eric started
"Beautiful!" Tai exclaimed.
"It's perfect for you." David complimented.
I blushed. "Thanks guys. Well, I guess I'll hurry and buy it then huh?"
An hour later…………………"Your stupid dress boxes almost made me lose control of themotor cycle," David growled at me as he took the two off his bike.
"Sorry, you volunteered. Beside, Tai made it perfectly, and Eric and I managed to handle one."
"Ok, what ever." He said more playfully as we entered the house.
"Hello? Is anyone home?" I called. There wasn't an answer. "Ok, well lets take these to my room then we can look for everyone ok?
"Right."
We set the boxes down in my room, and walked out into the hall. We heard voices down in the entrance hall, and headed to the banister, to see what was up.
"There they are!" Wufei's voice echoed as we looked down the banister to all of our dads coming out from the living room.
"WHERE WERE YOU?" My dad hollered at us.
"At the mall where you left us!" I hollered back.
"Why didn't you call!" Trowa yelled loudly
"We did call! David left a message on the machine, cause no one was home!" Eric answered louder.
"There was no message! We were worried sick." Duo informed us
"I did leave a message! I could tell you exactly what it said too." David growled at them frustrated.
"Heero, was there anyone home?" Wufei asked calmly.
"Kahea was." Dad said distantly. I walked down stairs, and the guys followed me.
"Even though it was deleted, we could bring it up…right dad?" I asked looking at him
"Yeah, but I believe you anyway. So there's no point. I don't doubt that Kahea might have deleted it. So, what dresses did you get?"
Although dad was a little shocked that I bought five expensive dresses, when I put on a little fashion show for them, they loved the white dress just as much as the other three.
I went to bed that night, very happy. Both Josh, and Kahea, were both sleeping at a friend's house, so the next morning they could shop for the ball. Then thinking in my head, I realized that the Ball was only 2 days away.
