Chapter 9
'Tonight is important.' May thought as she was wrapped in her bathrobe. The makeup was at her side. One of the mades came in and had done her makeup. Her skin was so pale it looked white. The makeup artist called it fabulous. She didn't think so. It wouldn't have been a problem anyother time. But this is different. This summer would start with a ball. Any of the princes or princesses in their allied countries that could not attend for the summer they would hold a ball where all would have to attend. It was an honor to be a part of it even if you were high class but since May was a middle class girl it was an even bigger honor. As she got dressed she wanted to prove everyone she was right for Drew. With the rumors the princesses would spread she knew it wouldn't be as great as the first. Because at the first she knew just about everyone there and the second she didn't know many. And after that stunt pulled at the last ball everyone would remember the beautiful commoner that had foodscraps poured all over her face. In otherwords she'd be called FoodFace. She waited in her room trying to remain calm but it didn't seem like it worked. She still quivered with fear. She was almost too scared to go downstairs. But she couldn't not show and that would be rude and selfish.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door. "Who is it?"
"It's me." She knew the voice she tried her hardest to stay still and sit straight not showing her emontions. She just wanted to stay happy.
"Oh, Come in Drew."
"Are you scared?"
"No not at all. What makes you say that?"
"Your squivering." He said.
"Oh," May tried to stop it but she couldn't. "I don't think I can do this."
"Don't worry, May" he said, "You'll do fine."
"No. By the time rumor goes around," May said, "They'll call me food face and names like that."
"Don't worry." Drew reasured her. "Here's a little tip. Don't wear too much makeup. It'll make you look like a China doll." He wiped off just enough makeup to show her natural skin. "It'll cover your natural beauty." A strain of hair fell unto her face. With a gentle touch, he moved it to the side of her face. May smiled at Drew.
"How do I look?"
"... Beautiful. Just... Perfect." he said mesmorized by her incredible eyes. He looked straight into them like he never has done before. May blushed into a bright pink.
"Well... I guess... I'd better... you know... get changed."
"Wait," he said. He opened the bottom drawer of the dresser mirror May sat at. There was this beautiful tiarra. It was made with real silver and diamonds. Its tip was pointed and would match the dress perfectly. She looked like a true princess in Drew's eyes. "Don't forget to save me a dance."
He, then, bowed slightly and walked out the room. May sighed and decided to get dressed now. The ball would start in just an hour. That was barely enough time. The princesses started to get ready a long time ago. While Drew and I talked they were getting ready. When we parted there were only 3 and a half hours before the ball. It may seem like a lifetime. But that time goes fast when you're preparing for a royal ball when you're not even considered High class. She might have been the most beautiful but not the highest class.
At this ball noone was called they were already downstairs. May didn't feel right. Everyone stared at her but not because of what she thought. She thought they only seen how she was a commoner. She wasn't even high class she was a commoner.The real reason they starred at her was because of her beauty. She wasn't like a China doll. She looked like a real girl. Her smile was inoccent and beautiful. Her eyes sparkled with the brightness of a star. The dress she wore complimented both those features. It was a beautiful pink dress with a white lining at the top that covered the side of her arms. (like the dress in Slepping Beauty.) The princes looked at the stunning young girl thinking she could be a princess. The princesses looked at her knowing she wasn't a princess. Some were angry while others looked at her with approval. Those weren't the princesses that would scare her. It was the ones over in the corner looking at her with death glares.
"Look at her," Guinuvere said, "She's... She's..."
"Not wearing any makeup." Destyne pointed out.
"And she isn't that pretty either." Diane said.
"If I said something I would be lieing." All the princesses in the corner glared at Alex. "But I can still hate her."
"Everyone's looking at her."
"So, Sarah. What's your point?" Liz commented.
"Everyone's supppose to be looking at me." She was almost crying. They rolled there eyes. Drama Queen!
May was looking around for Drew but couldn't find him. Someone tapped on the shoulder she turned around hoping it was Drew.
"Hello."
"Umm. Hello your highness," she quickly curtised.
"May I have this dance?"
"Sure," May said, "It'll be my pleasure."
May smiled at the brown haired boy. It wasn't Drew but he was pretty cute. "So May I know your name?" he said.
"My name is May Maple."
"Not princess?"
"No." she looked down sadly.
"You could have fooled me." she smiled making her smile. "I'm Anthony."
"Prince Anthony, right?"
"Right, but call me Anthony." May smiled. "So May You must have been invited to come here for the summer."
"Yes. I have. How'd you know?"
"Well I know things. So are you having fun? I know I did last year."
"Yeah. It's fun here."
"Have you and Drew been talking alot?" May just blushed.
"OH I see." May just smiled shyly. "Did Drew take you through the garden?"
"Most of it. It's truly beautiful."
"Just like you."
"Thank you. You don't look bad yourself." He just smiled. When the dance was over, he bowed while she curtised. And then they parted.
"Hey May," she looked behind her and it was Drew.
"Drew." she grabbed his neck and he held her waist. He grabbed her hands and said, "I want to show you something."
May followed him And he got behind her and covered her eyes. He held her waist from the front and lead her there. Drew let her go and uncovered her eyes. May looked at the two people in front of her. She was surprised.
"Oh My Gosh. Misty, Ash. It's great to see you."
"You too." Misty said and hugged May. Then May hugged Ash. "How's it been?"
"It's been great. I'm having so much fun."
"Not as great as Mr. Jaole's class right." Ash smirked at May reaction.
"Of course."
"hey, guys. Misty. Ash. May." May looked at person behind her to see Anthony.
"So did it work?"
"Did what work?" May asked.
"..."
"Ash... Drew... Misty."
"Well," Misty said.
"Fine then." She turned around and pouted.
"Come on, May. Stop flirting he already likes you."
May's mouth turned wide in shock. "I'm glad you're not staying." She said sarcastically."
"Well then this week is going to be a living hell."
"You guys are staying!" Misty nodded.
"Yea." May screamed just a bit too loud. Everyone looked at her. She looked back innocently, mouthing the words sorry. Both girls giggled lightly.
"I can't believe it." May said.
"I know."
"Thank you, Drew." May hugged him around his neck almost crying. He held her around her waist.
"If she doesn't keep her hands off of him-" Sarah cringed in anger. May finally let go of Drew and held his hand as they all talked. Then she smirked, and whispered into Diane's ear. Diane's giggled at her idea. It was evil, as usual.
"Umm... Hi." Sarah turned her head to see Nathan.
"Oh. Hi Nathan."
"May, I have this dance?" Nathan held his hand down.
"Umm. I don't feel like dancing right now but thanks for your offer, but maybe later."
"Ok." he said, "I hope so." Nathan dropped his hand and walked away towards where May and her friends were.
"You asked Sarah to dance?"
"Yeah," Nathan replied. "But she said no." Nathan just looked her way but Sarah didn't notice, obviously.
"You really like her, don't you?" May asked.
"Yeah." he kept looking at her and again she didn't notice.
"Why do you have to be so hot?" May said standing in front of Drew. Drew looked down at her.
"It makes me all the better." He smirked while May laughed. "Come on. Let's dance." May smiled and nodded her head.
"Now, they're dancing."
"Tell me something I don't know." Sarah said to Liz.
"So," Guinvere said, "Why didn't you say yes to Nathan?"
"I have bigger fish in the sea to catch." Sarah replied watching May and Drew dancing. She seen May giggle lightly. Sarah glared. It wasn't what she wanted.
"So it's just a dance." Destyne saod.
"Not just any dance," she said, "Drew's dance. I was made to dance with him not that loser girl. She's not even high class."
"Then how can she dance so perfectly."
"I heard she was middle class but her parents treated her like high class. Making her play the harp, taking dance lessons, even a private school for high class only. They made her seem high class. Now, she thinks she's right for the throne."
"You must be joking. If everyone know that, she'd be so embaressed. She wouldn't be able to marry Drew even if he asked." Guinvere said.
"That's it." Sarah said.
"What?" all the princesses exclaimed.
"I'm surprised you don't already know." Sarah smirked evily.
Drew did like he did at the last dance. He danced them out underneath the stars and the moon.
"Where are you taking me this time?" Drew smiled knowing exactly his plan.
"It's a surprise."
"I love surprises." May smiled and soon they stopped dancing and started to walk hand-in-hand. They both smiled at each other. Drew stopped and pointed into the area in front of them. A river. It sparkled in the moonlight. In the center of the body of water, there the full moon stood. The trees surrounded the river hiding it and its beauty.
"OH my gosh. Drew this is beautiful."
"I thought you'd like it."
"I love it, Drew." May looked back up at him. He was smiling. His hand caressed her cheek and she smiled. Just a single touch from him sent tingles down her spine and makes her cheeks turn red into an incredebly cute blush. He kissed her so softly and tenderly. She kissed back. Everything was perfect. No Sarah, No Sara Lynn(if you remember), Nobody else but May and Drew. The beautiful sounds of the woods made it all the better. When they pulled apart, they felt as if the world stopped as they gased into each others eyes. They were soulmates.
"I want to ask you something."
"What?"
"I-"
