Hello to all. It's time for the dance chapter. This is going to fun. Enjoy. I do not own anything.
Chapter 4: The Dance
A week after the phone call with Mark, it was the night of the dance. I was putting my hair in a bun when Daniel, the butler, came in.
"Ms. Victoria, Mr. Johnny Green is here" he said.
"Tell him that I'll be down in five" I said. I finished putting my hair in bun and look at the dress I was wear. It was turquoise, long, and with one strap that had a part of the strap wraps around the back. Tonight was going to be perfect. I was going to get revenge, the crown, and the perfect date.
I went down stairs to find Johnny in a stunning, black suit. I expected him to get me a blue orchid, but that is not what he had when I came down. Instead, he had a white rose.
"Sorry about the rose, honey. They were all out of orchids." He said, trying to be nice in hopes that I would spare him.
"It's ok. It's still wonderful." I said with a smile. In my head, I was yelling and cussing at him for getting the wrong flower. However if I did that, he would most likely leave and my plan would be ruined.
"Cool" he said being relieved. "I'll be right back." Right before he left, he handed the container with the cheap rose. I had to think of some way to get rid of it. Then I came up with perfect idea. I would hold to it until the dance, and then thrown it away in a trash can, and tell Johnny that I lost it. As I though this up, I noticed Daniel, shaking his head.
"What?" I said, annoyed by him shaking his head.
"I could tell you weren't happy by the rose." He said.
"He got me the wrong flower, Daniel. I wanted an orchid" I said.
"A rose is a beautiful thing, Ms. Victoria." He said.
"Oh, they're pretty alright. Pretty cheap." I replied back.
"Beautiful things can come from the smallest thing." He said. Great. He's trying to my Dad. What is he going to next? Mostly, going talk about his wife again.
Before Daniel could say anything else, Johnny can back and we were off. After picking up Sue, Rachel, Dianna, Julie, and their dates, we went to the dance.
The dance was outside, in a large park. I told Johnny that I going to use the restroom. I also told my friends to text me when Mark arrived. I made it look like I was going to the restroom, but I slip between a few trees. I then made my way to the pond. There were tables, seats, and candles for people to sit down and talk. I look at pond, remembering how my mom took me to the playground in the park. However, I shook this though and found close by trash can. I took the rose out of the container and saw two pelts fell. As I pick them and put them in my purse, I heard a voice.
"Nice rose you have there." I turned around to find a young man who were lighting the candles, using a candle lighter. His hair was light brown, short that goes around his ears, to the back of his neck. He had eyebrow length bangs that somewhat covers his green eyes. His height might be around 5'10. He had on tan pants, a tan jacket, and plaid shirt. It looks like the outfit came from Wal-Mart,
"What?" I said back to him.
"The rose. I know not lot of guys like that kind of thing, but I think they are amazing and beautiful. They also make great models for drawing." He said. He must have been in the art program the school has. The school makes the people from different programs volunteer for the dances and stuff.
"Would you like to have it?" I asked him.
"Oh, very funny." He said sarcastically.
"What?" I said. This was the first time I have ever seen him, so I couldn't have made funny of him in the past.
"You're pretending to give me the rose, take it from me, and embarrass me." He explained.
"I'm not faking. My date got me the wrong flower, and it doesn't really match my dress. It's going to die anyway, so it maybe better if you take. Beside, you could always use it for drawing." I said.
"Well, if you insist…" He said before taking the rose, putting back inside the container, and putting the container inside his pocket.
"Thanks for rose." He said with a half smile.
"You're welcome." I said kind of smiling as well before walking away. I have never been nice to anyone outside the popular crowd. At least I got rid of the rose. I then got a text from Rachel that said she saw Mark at the front entrance. Showtime.
I went back to the front when I saw Mark, wearing a dark green suit. He looked around, trying to find me. I noticed he didn't have a white rose with him.
"Excuse me, do you have your ticket?" the ticket checker said to Mark.
"Yes, but I'm looking for my date." Mark said.
The ticket checker gave Mark a pity look, just like she knew what was happening. "Ok, just go to the side." She said to him.
I then found Johnny, who then holds my hand, grab my waist, and kiss me right in front of Mark. "I love you, baby" Johnny said after the kiss.
"You actually fell for it" I said looking straight at Mark. "You though someone like me, beautiful and popular, could actually hang out or like someone who is ugly and unpopular, like you? Also, what's with your ugly green suit?"
"It was my Dad's" Mark said.
"He must be old since no one wears color suits since 80's" I smirked.
"I only came to give you a second chance" he said. "I was hoping that you wouldn't make my decision that easy."
"Wait, what do you mean?" I said confused. While everyone else was just watching, Johnny and my friends had big smiles on their faces, enjoying what was going on.
"Wait and see" he said with a smile before walking out.
So that was the dance chapter. Now, the next chapter is when all the crazy pretransformation stuff to Victoria. If anyone wants to see what Victoria's dress looks like, the link is on my profile. The ideas of how the male beauty was from Eustacegirl and babyvfan. I would like to thank them for these ideas. However, while babyvfan suggested that the male beauty should a red hair, I decide not to go with this suggest. I decide this since I didn't want to make it look like I copy Lindy's character. Sorry about that. Also, I was thinking about making a trailer for this story on YouTube. Any ideas on who I should cast for the roles? Anyway, please review. Bye.
