Two weeks passed...one day before the big day...
"Ok people, let's do this one more time!", Hay Lin said. Everyone moved around stage. The girls had poofy, tooty-fruity dresses; some with big hats (you know, the one princesses wear in the old days, with the fabric hanging from the end) and some had weird hair-styles. The boys had weird clothing on, some with hats and some with monocles or weird-looking shoes.
"Let's rehearse...the part where Bernardo and Rose are becoming one. So we need the soldiers from France and Europe, as well as the King and Queen of both places. Everyone scattered around everywhere. The stage was actually quite big. They even had an awsome background for the scene. It was sad colors, black and gray, with lightning, sort of like it was raining with thunder. Cornelia and Caleb came to the center of the stage. Will and Matt were in front of the French soldiers, and Veronica and Carlos were in the front of the Europe soldiers. "Ok, we want feeling, people. Sound effects! Lights! Microiphones! And...action!", Hay Lin yelled and sat down with a smile (If you're wondering, the microphones were everywhere and loud, so no one needed to hold anything).
"Rose! Come here! Away from those beasts, especially that one", Queen Jasmin (Veronica) yelled, pointing at France's prince. "Mother! I will not return to you for as long as you dispise these people, especially Bernardo! Keep away from him, mother!", Rose yelled back, and stretched her arms to her sides, as if protecting Bernardo. "You will do no such thing! Get away from them, now Rose!", King Ferdinan (Carlos) said with fury.
"Listen to your parents, you girl. Step away from our son! You don't deserve him at all!", Queen Gabriela (Will) said to Rose. Rose gasped and gave up by hanging her head low, but an angry face. "Mother! I love her! You cannot just take me away from her!", Bernardo yelled at his mother. "But we can, either you, Rose, step away from him and come to us, or our soldiers will remove that boy!", King Ferdinan yelled. The soldiers put their shields higher, and their swords ready to fight (yes they were fake, duh).
Irma then suddenly came walking in front of everyone in the housekeeper outfit. "Yo, Hay Lin, what kind of duster am I gonna have, white or shocking pink", Irma laughed. The students watchingstarted laughing."Um, Irma, we're rehearsing", Hay Lin said. Irma looked back at the people, looking confused. "Oh, sorry", Irma laughed nervously and ran back backstage. "Ok...so continue!", Hay Lin said.
"Ok, um...oh right...There shall be no such thing. Men!", King Miguel (Matt) ordered his soldiers. The soldiers also put a fighting stance. "No! There shall be no fighting!", Rose and Bernardo boomed together. Hay Lin motioned her hands, as the crew put lighting. They both closed their eyes and began to hover up (with the wires). Everybody looked at them with suprise and shock. "Your fighting has caused us misery, so now we shall be together as one!", Rose and Bernardo said in unison and a bright, green light came from Cornelia.
"How can you do that?", Mrs. Kickerbocker asked Hay Lin. "Oh, we've been doing this for some time now", Hay Lin mumbled and grinned. If you saw Will, which no one did of course, she had the Heart of Candracar out, summoning her powers. Caleb also began to glow, except with white (Will knew how to do a glow on people because it helps when she's in the dark). The two, still closed eyes and glowing. hugged each other and began to spin really fast (this was the people backstage). Finally, Will made a silent wish to the Heart as it, without being seen, jumped in the middle of the two spinning people. Caleb and Cornelia opened their eyes to see spinning figures of one another and the Heart of Candracar. Cornelia concentrated as they both started to disappear slowly. The spinning vortx diminished and only the Heart of Candracar was left, slowly going down.
"My baby!", Queen Jasmin and Queen Gabriela shreiked and ran towards the crystal. Suddenly a screen appeared from the Heart of Candracar when they held it in both their palms. Rose and Bernardo appeared side-by side in the screen. "Until you learn how to love...", Rose started with almost no emotion in her face or voice. "Then, you shall be returned what is dear to you...", Bernardo said the same as Rose did (well, except a deeper voice). "For if not, your two treasures shall be gone, forgetting you, forever", Rose and Bernardo said, and closed their eyes. Then the screen disappeared.
"Bravo! Bravo!", Mrs. Knickerbocker stood up and clapped. Cornelia and Caleb walked from the back of the stage and to where everyone else was. "Hay Lin, how did you actually get all these effects? They seem almost...real", Mrs. Knickerbocker gasped. "Hahaha! Wait till you see all the play", Hay Lin laughed. "I can't wait to see it all tomorrow night. "Ok, tomorrow, you all have to be here at 6:00 p.m. to put on your make up and all the props and stuff", Hay Lin gathered in a circle with everyone. Everyone then nodded and started to leave the stage.
Cornelia started walking slowly out the auditorium doors, with her long, pink silk dress dragging behind her. She looked at the ground in front of her and took off the pretty leaf crown on her head. "Hi Cornelia", Cornelia turned and saw Caleb walking up to her. He looks so cute like that, Cornelia thought with a blush. "Hi, Caleb", she smiled and removed her thoughts. "We did pretty good, huh? I mean, we had super "realistic effects"", Caleb started walking with her. "Yeah, we do a pretty good team together", Cornelia smiled. It seemed that her house was closer than they thought, because they were already at the gate.
Cornelia opened the gate and saw that Caleb had stopped. "Well, aren't you coming?", Cornelia looked back with a grin. "Are you sure?", Caleb asked. "Of course, come on", Cornelia giggled and grabbed his arm. Caleb smiled as she walked him through the door. "Hi Cornelia. Ooooooh, who's this?", Lilian teased, as she opened the door before Cornelia could open it. "He's a...friend of mine, Lilian", Cornelia said and went in the house, followed by Caleb. Lilian looked at Caleb, "I like him". Caleb scratched his head with nervousness. Cornelia's face turned red, "I'm sure you do, now we gotta go now, bye!", Cornelia dragged him up to her room.
"Wow, I like your room", Caleb said as he smelled the sweet scent. "Thanks", Cornelia smiled as she put her crown down on the drawer. "Hey Cornelia", Caleb sat down on one of the chairs she had. "Hm?", she sat on the bed. "I heard that theres the movie you liked...", Caleb started. Cornelia smiled and blushed, "Yeah, I haven't seen it, but I want to go see it". "I was wondering if you...I don't know, if you'd like to see it with me?", Caleb asked with a smile. "Of course! I'd love to go...but not dressed like this", Cornelia looked down on her fashionable dress, yet way to oldie style. "Yeah, good thing I brought my clothes", Caleb took out his bag. "Great, you can change in my bathroom, and I'll change in my closet", Cornelia pointed towards the bathroom. Caleb nodded and entered her bathroom.
After a little while, Caleb got out of the bathroom with his usual brown shirt and brown pants. Guess she's not ready yet, Caleb thought and sat on the chair again. He smiled as he remembered all those times he tried to tell her how he felt and all those times it felt that they were all alone and nothing to stop them...but I guess not. Now, he was ready to go on a date with Cornelia. I guess everything turned out alright...better than alright.
He heard the door open and saw Cornelia come out with a purple shirt and blue jeans with colorful figures on it. "Ok", Cornelia said. "Wow, never seen you wear that", Caleb smiled. "I'm glad you like it", Cornelia giggled. "Come on, I think there's one at 6:30", Caleb said as he opened the door for her, but for only Cornelia to see her little sister falling because she had been leaning on the door. "Lilian?", Cornelia boomed. "So he's MORE than your friend", Lilian said. Cornelia slapped her forehead, "I'm sorry, Caleb". Caleb smiled and nodded. "Wait here for a moment", Cornelia said and grabbed her little sisters hand. She dragged her to her mom's room.
"Mom! Lilian was spying on me and Caleb!", Cornelia said. "Who's Caleb?", her mom asked from the bathroom. Caleb, at that time, came through the door and next to Cornelia. "Hello, Mrs. Hale, I'm Caleb", Caleb waved as he saw his reflection on the mirror Mrs. Hale was looking through. "He's one of my best friends", Cornelia said. "Oh, well I've never heard about you", Mrs. Hale said walking to the room with them. "Oh, that's because he's actually not from school, he's Hay Lin's cousin. Sometimes when we go to Hay Lin's, Caleb is there, so we've become very good friends", Cornelia smiled. "Nu-uh! You're going to the movies with him!", Lilian disagreed. "Oh, Lilian, I'm sure they're going as friends, isn't that right Cornelia?", Mrs. Hale said, patting Lilians head. "Right, but SOMEONE had to lean on my door and hear our conversation!", Cornelia said, glaring at Lilian. Lilian crossed her arms.
"Ok, well, I better not make you two late, you kids have fun", Mrs. Hale said. "Ok, bye mom", Cornelia said and walked out the door. Caleb waved and smiled, as he walked in back of Cornelia. They went downstairs and through the door. "I"m so sorry about my sister, she can be such a brat sometimes", Cornelia said with embarrasment. "It's ok. At least your mom actually believed you", Caleb smiled. "Yeah, my mom usually goes on my side most of the time", Cornelia said. They walked down the side walk towards the movies. They got there, and Caleb bought the tickets and the snacks (don't ask me how he got the money, ok? HE DID NOT STEAL!).
They went to sit down in the theaters and the movie began. It was actually very interesting for both of them. There was even a little romantic scene. Caleb did that "yawning-and-accidently-putting-my-arm-around-your-shoulder" thing. Caleb smiled at her with a dreamy smile. Cornelia closed her eyes with a smile and leaned her head on his shoulder. Oh yeah, this is the best moment of my life, Caleb thought as he brought her closer.
After the movies, Cornelia and Caleb talked and talked the whole way back to Cornelia's house. "Caleb, this was the best day of my life!", Cornelia twirled as she reached her gate. "Mine too", Caleb laughed. "I bet that tomorrow is gonna be even better, though", Caleb blushed. Cornelia stopped and smiled as she looked into his eyes. "Actually, you're right, tomorrow is gonna be the best day ever, and nothing is going to replace it. I'll see you tomorrow", Cornelia gave him a kiss on the cheek. "I'll save the big one for tomorrow", Cornelia winked and waved good-bye. Caleb grinned and waved at her back, Oh yeah, can't wait for tomorrow.
