Dear Diary

A Winx Club Story

Last time...

The girls both approached Brandon and shot each other a glare. Brandon looked at each girl and sighed, hard. This was going to be a difficult choice to make. Probably the most difficult he'd ever made in his entire life. Stella was beautiful, fun and exciting. Elizabeth was daring, cool and determined. He loved them both.

"I'm sorry..."

The girls both looked at him, awaiting the answer.

Brandon sighed, "I'm sorry Stella, but I've chosen Elizabeth."

(A/N: Sorry it took so long. We were moving houses. Well, enjoy.)


Chapter Eleven: Trying Too Hard

Bloom, Next Day

Dear Diary,

Yesterday Layla came back in a terrible state! She was weeping and weeping (very un-Layla). She told us what the nurse had explained, but we didn't get anything that she had said, apart from the last part. Layla had visited the headmistress of Enchants college, who had no idea what to do with the Tides princess. Apparently, this only happened to Tides royalty and Layla was the only one who had ever entered the college.

She'd given us the rest of the week off so that we could figure out a way to help Layla. I'm pretty sure she didn't want one of her students to die, it would be really bad for the college's reputation.

Anyway, write now the girls are in our suite. They are all thinking of wacky ideas that could some how work. Seriously, they are just trying too hard to figure it out. I mean, the solution is right under their noses and they don't even realise it! Well, I suppose they did but since none of use know how to earn our Fairix, they're trying to dodge the obvious road.

Oh, actually make that the girls minus Stella. She's even worse than Layla and has thrown herself into a fit of sobs. I still don't get how Brandon can choose her over Stella? I mean, Brandon and Stella are like THE perfect couple that ever exisisted. Okay, maybe not Romeo-Juilet wise, but they were still really perfect.

Now Stella won't even come out of her room. She's locked herself up and I can constantly here her screaming. She's just tearing up...I swear it! She was so hurt yesterday, she just ran out of the restaurant sobbing. According to Brandon, she over-reacted because he chose Elizabeth over her. I'm still siding with Stella, though.

I can just imagine Elizabeth's smug face...and her evil sister (god, I can't even think about her, she reminds me of Sky sooo much...) standing behind her, one hand on her shoulder. "Good job Elizabeth, you certainly did it this time."

It's so weird, when I was spying on them, I could sense a wave of black magic that I was certain didn't come from Elizabeth. I felt all dizzy and light-headed. It was the kind of feeling I got when I met the Trix and when I was about to get transformed into Dark Bloom. I also got the same strong feeling when I crossed paths with Baltor in Solaria. Eeek!

Right now they think I'm in the "toilet", so I'd better stop writing before they become suspicious and catch me in the act. Hmmm, I might make a detour through the bathroom to create an image...

Back with the Winx...

The pale light shone from above and reflected onto the lounge. The room was decorated with soft, pastel colours to make it look cozy, yet it had a very modern designer look coming from the new furniture. There was a range of small, comfortable couches and some beanbags arranged around one soft pink carpet, the kind that you could just sink your feet into.

Four silhouettes hovered over the living room, talking intimately. One of them slouched down onto a beanbag and held her head in her hands. The rest shook their heads and sat onto the long couch which was fitted for three. They kept on talking and every once in a while, one of the four would shake her head and the rest of them would nod in agreement.

The one on the couch announced, quite negatively, "This is hopeless! We are getting absolutely nowhere at all! We should give up!"

Another shook her head and protested in a soft, feminine voice, "We can't do that Musa, you know we have to help Layla."

"I agree," added a taller one, "Every logical path follows towards it. Guys, we've been trying too hard."

The last one nodded towards Tecna, "What do you suggest we do?"

Suddenly, another fugure approached the group, her fiery red hair shone so brightly, passer-bys had to squint their eyes just to get past. She swayed dizzily to a nearby armchair. She propped her feet back and nestled in comfortably. The others nodded to acknowledge her, and she grinned back. Then, Tecna looked over to the girl who'd spoken last.

"We have to find your Fairix." Tecna replied, ignoring Musa's shaking head.

Layla slumped over, her dark hair sprawling everwhere. She was in tears now, who wouldn't? The red-head ran to help her, Musa comforted her from her seat, while Tecna gave a deplorable look towards Flora, who'd place her hand on Tecna's shoulder.

"I'll never do it." Layla wailed, "It's impossible."

Bloom was about to say something but just then a blonde entered the room, looking rather tattered. Everybody's head snapped up instantly, Stella had not come out ever since 'the thing'. She gave a small smile to the group, but everybody knew behind those mascara-smeared eyes, her heart was breaking all over again.

"Stella?" Flora asked, cautiously, "Are you okay?"

Stella hiccuped in return, "Y-yeah. Just a little sick...*hiccup*. Guys m-maybe you should visit Ms Faragonda *hiccup*."

Bloom clasped her hands together, "Why didn't we think of that? Stella you're a gen- wait! You're coming with us right?"

Stella bit her lips, "I guess..."

The girls all cheered and even Stella and Layla couldn't hold back a smile. Though, inside they were all a tiny bit worried. What if Ms Faragonda didn't have a cure for Layla's sickness?


Ok, sorry yet again, but I had these following reasons put me off.
