It was the day of the big dance at school and Alex couldn't have been happier that Mason was her date.
Alex came down stairs wearing a beautiful dress. It was purple chiffon and satin. The chiffon made an "X" on her neckline and tied into a little knot in the small of her back. The satin was an empire waist cut and fell right to the floor. Her hair was curled and hung loosely at her neck. All in all she was feeling very pretty.
As she got to the bottom of the stairs she saw Mason standing there with a corsage in one hand and his other hand was held out for her to take. "Alex you look ravishing. I got this for you."
Mason let go of her hand for a second before he took it again and gently placed the purple corsage on her wrist. Alex smiled at him as they started to walk out.
Just before they were home free Alex's mom and dad came out from the back of the store.
"Wait, no leaving till we get a picture of you two. Jerry grab the camera."
Her dad begrudgingly jogged up stairs to fetch the camera as her mom came up to them.
Her mother took her face in her hands, "Oh sweetie you look beautiful. I'm so happy we were able to catch you two before you left."
Alex smiled and heard her dad yell something in agreement as he came panting down the stairs with the camera in hand, "Okay honey stand next to Mason and I'll get a real quick pic."
Alex stood next to Mason as he wrapped his arms around her.
Her dad flashed the picture "Okay got it, Thanks .You two have fun, and remember Alex, no magic."
Alex nodded and rolled her eyes. "okay, okay. No magic, gotcha." With that they were out the door and on their way to the dance.
W.O.W.P.****W.O.W.P.****
Alex looked around. Was it just Alex or was everyone looking at her as she and Mason made their way to the dance floor?
Alex smiled as a slow dance started.
Mason put his arms around her waist and Alex wrapped her arms around his neck. They stayed like that just looking into each other's eyes. Even when the song changed and the tempo sped up, they just stayed in each other's loving embrace.
Someone bummed into them and Alex fell on her butt. "Ouch, hey! Who did that?" Alex saw none other than Justin and Juliet.
Juliet dropped down to Alex's side "Oh, I'm so sorry, I really didn't mean to do that. Really it was more Justin fault. Do you know that he's a terrible dancer?"
Alex giggled as they got up from you floor. "Yah, well I'm pretty sure that comes from the male side of our family. you should see my dad dance. no, wait, on second thought maybe you shouldn't, it can get a little embarrassing."
The Juliet giggled until she saw Mason. Her face drained of any color it had. "Mason? Oh no, this cannot be happening. No, no, no. How did your family find me?"
Alex looked up at mason, who looked very much like a statue. "Mason, what's Juliet talking about? Why is you family looking for her?"
Mason gulped and tore his gaze away from a very upset looking vampire. "Well you see Alex- well, awhile ago me and Juliet dated, and well you see. My family believes in all kinds of old wives tales. And you see one of them being."
Mason sighed. "one of them being that me and Juliet must - must get married. You see I'm wolf and she a vampire and because of that my crazy parent think we must marry before my 21st Birth-day. or a curse will fall a pone them."
Alex shook her head. "Wait a second, you and Juliet have to get married!"
