Next Chapter. Yeah. You know I need to find more to say up here. Oh well! Enjoy!
Night of the Dance…
Daniel was fixing his bat bow tie in the mirror. He was thinking over his plan.
Alright, the plan. All I need to do is dance with Janice, Sarah will get jealous, and we'll be back together again. It's a simple plan, nothing to worry about. Absolutely nothing to be nervous about.
"Nervous son?" Jack asked as he walked into the room.
"Me, nervous? No I'm not nervous; I'm the opposite of nervous. I mean this isn't the first time I've been to a dance. What would make you think I'm nervous?"
"Your bat bow tie is upside down." Daniel looked down to find that what his dad said was true.
"Oops." He said with a hint of embarrassment.
"Here, let me help you with that." Jack said. He undid the bow tie and started from scratch.
"So excited about your date with Janice?" Jack asked
"What? Oh yeah Janice! Yeah I'm excited about our date." Trying to make it sound convincing.
"You're a really bad liar son."
"Yeah I know."
"Let me guess, you tried to ask Sarah to the dance but someone beat you to the punch."
"How did you know?"
"Been there done that."
"Yeah, but you know what the weirdest part is? I can get whatever I want, but the one thing I really want I can't have."
"Well son it's not the end of the world just cause you can't take Sarah to the dance. Besides you never know, you may end up with Sarah."
"Well maybe your right dad."
"Just don't do anything stupid."
"Dad please, me stupid. Impossible. I'm Mr. Smart. I can't do anything stupid."
Suddenly the two skeletons heard foot steps coming down the steps. Sally appeared.
"May I introduce to you Sarah." Sally said. "Wearing a Sally original."
Sarah walked down the stairs wearing a long black dress that went all the way down to her feet. It came out a little at the hips and was strapless. Her short but beautiful new hair brightened her ghostly face up, and once again her eyes are what stole the show and Daniels heart. He could not longer feel his bony legs.
"Thank you so much again Mrs.Skellington for sewing this dress for me. It's beautiful."
"You're welcome Sarah."
Sarah looked up at Daniel who was just staring. He didn't move a single bone.
"Daniel what are you starring at? Come on, we don't want to keep our dates waiting."
"I'll meet you outside." He said still barely moving. As soon as Sarah was outside all of his bones caved into one big pile on the floor. Jack chuckled a bit.
"Need some help there Mr. Smart?"
