Ok an update for Winx Club, some of you had found me misleading but I got the news from BelieveinWinx and he/she said nothing about season 7. Until now, I thought maybe someone lied about season 7 or change their mind. It will probably be in Italian. But we people who don't know Italian have to watch it somehow. I know some of you said there will be subtitles, but think about you will be reading the subtitles and not really watching it, you will miss the action.
Another thing I will terribly miss the actors if it goes back to the Rai English dub I really hope they won't do the RE actors from long ago they all sound the same to me.
Also someone said I can't post a A/N as a chapter, I didn't do that, Fanfiction automatically does it.
So are you guy ready for the moment we all been waiting for, The Princess Ball!
6. The Princess Ball (part 1)
Flora's P.O.V
This is it. Finally the Princess Ball. Well, then again the only reasons I'm excited is because of The Winx Club Band performing, me singing with them, and maybe, hopefully dance with Helia. I still cant believe he gave me a beautiful drawing that he did. It is the best present I ever got, that I had to framed it.
Anyway, I'm wearing a glittery pink full skirt , strapless, sweetheart neckline ball gown. A red rose is in the center of the neckline. On the top of the skirt from my waist to mid-thigh is bunch of red roses. Then red roses on the hem at the end of the dress. I have my hair in a updo, and my blonde bangs curled and hang at the sides of my face. I'm also wearing my tiara, pink heels with flats, and a pink choker with a red rose on it. And two elbow length pink gloves with red roses on top.
I add some make up to my face, I like the natural look so I just put on some concealer, a little bit of pink eyeshadow, black eyeliner, an lip balm.
I check myself in the vanity mirror and head out the door.
Helia's P.O.V
The guys and I are standing in the parlor waiting for the girls to get ready. We just change into our suits and that's it. I'm wearing a raven blue suit with a white button down, and a orange tie, and black dress shoes. Timmy is wearing a brown suit with a beige color button down, yellow vest, yellow bow tie. And tan dress shoes. Nabu is wearing a dark purple suit with a white button down, gold vest, gold tie, and beige color shoes. Sky is wearing a dark blue suit with a cream button down, light blue vest and light blue tie, and dark blue shoes. Brandon is wearing a black suit with a dark green button down, and dark green shoes. Expect Brandon to not dress fancy.
The first girl to come out is Musa as always. She believes in rushing so she get things done on time. She is wearing a red Chinese Oriental style dress with two slits at the sides of the legs that has a purple skirt underneath. It has purple trim and purple music notes on the right side of her body. Her hair is in two Asian buns, and her shoes is red Chinese style geisha shoes. She is also wearing wrist-length purple fishnet gloves.
She comes and smile at me. I'm her escort for the evening. "That flower for me?" She asked me teasingly looking at the pink rose with red tips on in my hand.
"Its called a rose. And you know full well who this is for." I replied.
"Well are you sure Princess Flora of Linphea, the Fairy of Nature, wants a droopy rose?" She said pointing to it. I look down and see that she is right. Huh. It was fine before.
"Maybe I can fix it." Aisha said closing her bedroom door behind her. She is wearing a neon green and dark blue horizontal wide striped short-sleeved shirt with sequins on the dark blue stripes, a mermaid style neon green skirt, dark blue heels, and her hair is the same. And she has two bracelets one neon green and one dark blue on both of her wrists.
She comes to me and looks at the rose. "Morphix Bubble." She said and the rose is in a pink bubble and is floating in between her hands. She close her eyes and concentrates. A few seconds pass and she opens her eyes and lower the rose still drooping back to me and the pink bubble is gone. "It won't budge, sorry Helia." She said shrugging. "Its okay." I said.
"Let me try something." Musa said and her flute appear in her hand. She start playing a happy tune and magical music notes appear and went around the rose. Unfortunately it still droop. The music notes disappear. Musa takes zaps the flute away. "I guess that's not working either." She said confusingly.
"What isn't working?" Tecna said coming towards us. She is wearing a two part dress, the shirt is one shoulder and goes underneath her chest and is light purple. The skirt is a ankle-length pencil skirt that is electrifying green that has little slits at the ankle. She has on periwinkle heels and her hair is the same but have a purple and green gem barrette in it, and she has white lace wrist-length gloves.
"We are trying to get this rose to stop drooping." Musa explained.
"Let me scan it, and see what is wrong with it." Tecna said and her scanner magically appear in front of her. She push a few buttons and a green light shine on the rose going up and down. After its done she looks at the scanner confused. "The scanner said it's a healthy rose. But it didn't say why its drooping." She said furrowing her brows.
"Or maybe you can just give to Flora and she can see what is wrong with it." We all look to see Bloom heading toward us. She is wearing a light blue spaghetti strap ball gown. On the top has a soft pink heart on it, a wide pink ribbon that is tied around her waist that is tied in a bow in the back. The skirt part is full and have glitter on it. She is wearing light blue shoes with a soft pink heart on them. Her hair is in high ponytail tied with a soft pink ribbon. And she has on two light blue elbow length gloves with soft pink ribbon that has a hear on them.
"But, it wouldn't look right giving the Princess of Linphea a droopy rose before her Princess Ball." I said.
"Yes, but she is also the Fairy of Nature. And I'm sure she would appreciate the thought and you giving it to her. Flora is a kind and loving person, I'm sure she'll take it with gratitude. I bet you that every flower that comes her way that she would love it and care for it." She explained.
"You're right Bloom I shouldn't be worried." I said smiling at her.
"Worried about what?" Stella said finally coming out of her room. She is wearing a orange ball gown with a yellow netting from her neckline of the gown to above her knees. Her sleeves is off the shoulders see-through orange fabric with yellow stars on them. Her hair is in a half up half down do with orange headband that has a yellow star on it. Her heels are orange with yellow stars on them. She also have orange underneath the elbow orange glittery gloves.
"Finally! Halleijuah! She's ready. Let's go and we will explain it to you on the way there." Musa said grabbing my arm. The girls takes their boyfriends' arms and we head out the door.
…
On the way to the doors that leads to the stairs that goes down to the ballroom we see Flora being escorted by Riven who is wearing a dark magenta suit, with a white button down, and red tie. And wow she looks really beautiful. She looks like an angel. I really hope she accepts a dance with me.
"Hi guys, you all look great." Flora said breaking me from my thoughts with her beautiful voice.
"Thank you." We all said in unison.
"Um…Flora can I talk with you for a sec?" I asked.
"Sure." She said letting go of Riven's arm. Musa let go of mine taking the hint.
"Um….I, uh, want to give you this rose." I said handing her the drooping rosy. "Sorry, that its drooping."
She smiles at me and takes the rose from my hand. "Oh, Helia that is so sweet of you. And that's all right, maybe I can tell what's wrong with it." She said stroking one of the petals.
"Why don't you tell me what's wrong, little one?" She said sweetly talking to the rose.
A few seconds pass. "She said that you took her away from her family." She explained.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry…" I trailed off and look down embarrassed. Gosh, I feel so stupid.
"Helia, it's okay you didn't know." She said putting her hand on my shoulder. I look and up and see that she is smiling. I give her weak smile and her smile got wider. We stay like that for a few seconds before she remove her hand from my shoulder and give her attention to the rose. "Don't worry we will find your family and I give you guys a nice vase in my room and take of you." She explained and the rose finally raise up back to its original state.
"Um…I can show you where it was and where the others are, after the ball." I said.
"Like a date?" She said eagerly and I just stare at her in shock.
"I'm sorry, never mind what I said." She said looking down blushing.
"No…its not that, um…." I said trying to get the courage to really ask her out.
"Guys its starting cuz here comes the King, Queen, and Miele now." Musa pointed out. We all turn and see them coming down the hall. The King and Queen looking royal as always. And Miele in a pale yellow dress with green threaded trellises and leaves going up it, she has a green headband in her head with a daisy on it. And white Mary Janes.
"Are all of you ready?" The Queen asked smiling.
"Yes, ma'am." We all replied.
"Now presenting King Faunas, Queen Rosalinda, And their youngest daughter Princess Miele of Linphea!" Some dude bellowed from the ballroom bellowed and two guards who I didn't notice that was here till now pull open the doors for them. Everyone whooped and cheered as they went down the stairs.
"Now presenting The Winx Club Band! Princess Stella of Solaria and Brandon Squire to the Royal family in Eraklyon!" The same dude bellowed and They went out on the stairs and people whooped and hollered again.
"Now presenting Princess Bloom of Domino and Prince Sky of Eraklyon!" Bloom and Sky walked out.
"Now Presenting Tecna and Timmy from Zenith!" They went out.
"Now presenting Princess Aisha and Nabu of Andros!" They walked out.
"Now presenting the lead singer of The Winx Club Band, Musa of Melody and the grandson of the great wizard Saladin, Helia of Magix!" Musa and I smiled at each other and walk through the doors. We go down the stairs waving and smiling at the people whooping and cheering. We reach the end of the stairs and join our friends.
"Now presenting, the girl of this evening, Princess Flora Rossetta Forest of Linphea! Escorted by her best friend, Prince Riven of Melody!" Everyone start clapping, cheering, whistling.
"Thanking you all for coming to our daughter's Princess Ball, and a big thanks to the Linphea Orchestra and The Winx Club for performing!" The queen said in one of the microphones on the platform on where we will be performing on. There's a huge applause to what she said.
"Now we present the first dance for our daughter and our honored guest." The King said into the microphone and the crowd applause again.
The Orchestra start playing and all start to dance. "So how did it go with giving the rose to Flora?" Musa asked me as we dance. I explained everything to her,
"Hmmm…it sounds like she likes you." She said smiling at me.
"You think so?" I asked looking at her dance with Riven, and see she has a sad look on her face. I wonder why she's upset. Then I look in her hair and have the rose in her hair. I can't but smile at that.
"Duh, no girl would eagerly asked 'like a date' after you invite her to go somewhere unless she likes you." She said.
"Really? So I have a chance with her?" I said looking back at her.
"If her parents approve which I don't see why they wouldn't. But then again its her choice anyway, and I said you have pretty good chance with her." She said with a twinkle in her eye. My smile couldn't but get wider as we continue to dance.
Same moment in Flora's P.O.V
I explained everything that happen between Helia and I to Riven as we dance. I can't believe I made a fool out of himself. 'Like a date?' what was I thinking.
"So now he probably thinks I'm some crazy girl and doesn't like me." I concluded sadly looking down. Then all of sudden I hear chuckling and I look up and see Riven smiling and look like he's going to burst laughing any minute.
"It's not funny, Riven!" I nearly yelled while glaring at him.
"No, its not that. You are crazy person, because he does like you." He said smiling.
"How can you be so sure? He didn't seem like it when I thought he was asking him out. He just gave me this shock look, like I've grown two heads or something." I said looking down sadly again.
"I'm 100% sure he likes you. When he first came here he gave a drawing that he did of a flower in your favorite color, and he is the only one that gave you something, that's clue #1. Yesterday he said you sing like an angel, that's clue #2. Then today he gave you a rose, and felt really bad when he took it away from its family, that's clue #3. He probably looked at you shock, because he probably thought he had no chance with you, and you return his feelings." He explained.
"Why would he think that he doesn't have a chance with me?" I asked glancing at him dancing with Musa. They seem to be talking about something.
"I don't maybe its because you a princess or something….and…uh…okay, please don't make fully answer that question because I probably would get all mushy and bleh." He said with a disgusted face. I couldn't help but giggle.
"Okay, okay, but are you really sure he likes me?" I asked looking at me hopefully.
"No doubt about." He said smiling at me.
"Well if you're so good decoding Helia, maybe you decode if Musa likes you." I said teasingly.
"Um….well…uh…" He utter out blushing then look down, I can't help but laugh. But then he regain his composure and smirk at me.
"I can only decode guys, since I'm a guy, maybe you can decode her?" He said hopefully.
I rolled my eyes, "Fine. She likes you." I said.
"How do you know?" He asked.
"I just know." I replied
"Yeah, but how?" He insisted.
"Its at girl thing." I said smirking.
"You little devil!" He exclaimed glaring at me.
"Yup." I said beaming. He death glares me, but then both end up bursting out laughing.
After a few minutes the orchestra stop playing and we stop dancing and applaud for them.
"Now, here to perform, The Winx Club Band!" My parents said in unison.
They walk on the platform waving at the cheering crowd. Riven and I went up to the front so we can see them good.
"Hello Linphea! It is amazing to be here! And to perform at our very first Princess Ball!" Musa yelled. We all cheered.
"Also give a big applause to the Linphea Orchestra! Its an honor to perform with them." Musa said gesturing to them. We applaud as the conductor gave a bow and the instrument players nodded their heads.
"Now, let me shut up, and we will perform!" Musa said, we all cheered and laughed. She nods at the band to get ready. "This is call, Reflection (A/N: from the Mulan movie)." She announced and we cheered and the start in the song.
Musa:
Look at me, I will never pass for a perfect bride, or a perfect daughter.
Can it be, I'm not meant to play this part.
Now I see, that if I were truly to be myself, I would break my family's heart.
Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?
Somehow I cannot hide, who I am, though I've tried.
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?
After the song ended we cheered. "Thank you, this song is called Safe and Sound (A/N: By Taylor Swift)." Musa announced.
Musa:
I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, "I'll never let you go"
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said, "Don't leave me here alone"
But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
Don't you dare look out your window, darling,
Everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold on to this lullaby
Even when music's gone
Gone
Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You'll be alright
No one can hurt you now
Come morning light
You and I'll be safe and sound
All:
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La)
La La (La La)
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh
La La (La La)
Just close your eyes
You'll be alright
Come morning light,
You and I'll be safe and sound...
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh oh oh
They finished and we cheered again. "Thank you, again. This one is called Lost in Paradise (A/N: By Evanescence)." Musa said.
Musa:
I've been believing in something so distant
As if I was human
And I've been denying this feeling of hopelessness
In me, in me
All the promises I made
Just to let you down
You believed in me, but I'm broken
All the girls:
I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We've been falling for all this time
And now I'm lost in paradise
Musa:
As much as I'd like the past not to exist
With Bloom and Stella:
It still does
Back to be just Musa:
And as much as I'd like to feel like I belong here
I'm just as scared as you
All of the girls:
I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We've been falling for all this time
And now I'm lost in paradise
Musa:
Run away, run away
With Bloom and Stella:
One day we won't feel this pain anymore
Just Musa:
Take it all away
With Bloom and Stella:
Shadows of you
Cause they won't let me go
All of the girls:
Until I have nothing left
And all I feel is this cruel wanting
We've been falling for all this time
And now I'm lost in paradise
Musa:
Alone, and lost in paradise
They finished and we cheered again. "Thank you. We'll be taking a break and give the spotlight back the Linphea Orchestra. And when we come back we will have surprise ending." Musa said winking at me. We all cheered again.
They walk of the stage and I see Helia coming towards me. Is this the moment I've been waiting for?
A/N: HAHA, I end it on a cliffy. I'm so evil, but don't worry I'll get back on track and on schedule.
Friday: The sequel to F and H: A Vampire Love Story.
Saturday: The Beauty of True Love
Sunday: WC: The Princess and The Rockstar.
I also want to say Happy Lat Birthday to the greatest Winx Fairy of All Times, Flora! Happy Birthday Flora. We all love you!
