Chapter 2: Operation: Get Chun-Yan to the Dance
Chun-Yan's POV
"Chun-Yan, I'm sorry. Can we please talk?" I heard Matilda banging on the door. I groaned as I hugged my Panda once more, not daring to open the door.
"Go Away! I'm working on homework, aru!" I yelled back and I went back to hugging Panda.
"At least you understand, right, aru?" My Panda just stared and I sighed. I went to get my sketch book and I started to draw some Pandas and other cute things. Honestly, my sketchbook was filled with these things. I decided to draw a design for a car, so that's what I did. I hear the attic door open and I ignore whoever came in.
"Chun-Yan, can we talk?" I lift my head to see Matilda but I ignore her and go back to sketching.
"Look, I didn't know you had a crush on Al. I actually liked him for a while now and he asked me. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings at all." I looked up at her dark blue eyes and I can see the guilt and the regret in there. I put my sketchbook down and pulled my youngest step-sister into a hug.
"It's okay, aru…" I smiled as I forgave her.
"So, are you still going?" I shook my head.
"I might just work that night, aru. Besides, your sisters won't probably let me go and make me do a bunch of chores like that storybook princess I've heard so much about, aru." Matilda listened intently.
"Damn right you're not going," I yelped as Francine and Alice entered the room/attic. "Because of what you did to my dress, you're staying here and here only. I don't want to hear that you were working at that disgusting place they call a garage or that you were at the dance. Are we clear?" I nodded my head.
"Matilda, come on, we have to get you something for the dance!" Matilda nodded her head as she gave me an apologetic look and left. I looked out the window and see them leave, and I hear Sakura enter the room.
"Hey Chun-Yan, it's not fair you aren't going to the dance." I turned to my little sister. "You know, I can cancel my date with Heracles that night so that I can stay and help." I shook my head.
"It's okay, you go with him. I'm so happy that you got your first date, aru!" I gave her a reassuring hug.
"How about I help you get ready for that night, okay aru?" She nods her head as I helped her pick what to wear. I've never been on a date in my life, but since my sister is going on her first, I might as well help her out and support her. She's been crushing on Ivan's friend for a long time and she finally gets her chance.
Sakura's POV
I looked at what my sister has laid out for me and then back at her. I could tell she wanted to go with Alfred, but since he's going with Matilda, she would never get her chance. I just wanted to see my sister happy for once. And then, an idea sparked in my mind as I dialled Matilda and Daisy so that they can give me some back up. I made sure that Chun-Yan was doing something else at the moment before I called.
"Ciao, it's Daisy!" Daisy said in her cheeriest voice.
"SHUT UP DAISY! I'm trying to concentrate!" I heard Daisy's brother yell in the background.
"Sorry, big brother! Anyway, what are you doing?"
"I'm setting up my stuff for Saturday with Chun-Yan. Anyway, I need a favour from you. Just give me a second; I'm going to call Matilda." I dialled Matilda and waited for an answer.
"Allo, this is Matilda," She said.
"Hi, Matilda, Daisy's on the line too."
"Oh hi, Daisy, how are you,"
"I'm fine!" Daisy chirped.
"So what do you need?" Matilda asked.
"Well, I've got an idea on how to sneak Chun-Yan to the dance."
"You do?" Matilda asked surprised.
"Who are you talking to, Matilda?" I heard Alice in the background.
"I'm talking to Lili," Matilda lied before talking to us once more.
"So how do we do it?" Daisy asked.
"Well, first of all, she needs a dress." Matilda replied.
"I know what she can wear. I've seen her wear our mom's old dress and it looks good on her. Maybe she can wear that." I suggested, but made sure Chun-Yan wasn't listening.
"Okay, so we got the dress. Just, how are we getting her there?"
"Well, I can ask Ludwig to drive there once the evil sisters leave and we can help her get ready!" I smiled at Daisy's enthusiasm. "Good idea, we have how to get there and what to wear. Now, what's the theme of the dance?" Matilda asked
"It's a masquerade, why?" I answered back.
"Well then, we just need to find her a mask and we're ready to go!" Daisy squealed happily. We all hung up and I smiled to myself. Operation: Get Chun-Yan to the dance was a go.
I went to find my sister after I stopped talking to Matilda and Daisy and found her wearing our mom's dress.
"Oh sis, it looks beautiful on you," I mumbled quietly. She turned to me and gave me a small smile.
"Thanks, but there's a chance I might not wear this, aru." She sighed as she went to change out of it. Well, my dear sister, you're wrong about that.
Saturday Night
"We'll be back by midnight, and you better be here, or else…" Alice and Francine left, Matilda telling them to go on without her and she would catch up since she "wasn't ready yet" and that her date was picking her up later.
"Well, then, Daisy and Ludwig should be here in a few minutes." I looked at the clock before hearing the doorbell ring.
"I got it!" I ran to the door to see Daisy and Ludwig, who were already ready for the dance.
"Wow, you guys look great!" I commented as I let them in.
"Okay, sweetie, just stay here for a while. We won't take long." She pecked the German's cheek and he blushed. "Oh, you can watch TV while you wait, Ludwig." I suggested as I went up the stairs. Matilda was at the top of our attic ladder with makeup and a hair curler.
"Ready to commence with our plan," I asked as Matilda and Daisy nodded their heads.
"Hey Chun-Yan, can we come in?" I heard her mumble and we barged into the room.
"What's going on, aru?" Chun-Yan asked as she clutched her panda to her chest.
"Well, we're helping you get ready for the dance!" Daisy squeaked. Chun-Yan looked at us with disbelief before shaking her head.
"No, no, no, no…aru. I'll get in trouble if I'm caught, aru!"
"It's okay, we'll make sure Franny or Ally won't catch you at all tonight." Matilda assured her and she smiled.
"Okay then, work your magic!" She announced happily as we told her to take a shower before we can do anything. She did as we told her as Matilda put on some rock songs to get us in the mood. Once Chun-Yan returned, Matilda begins to fix her hair. She begins to braid it into a waterfall braid. She then clips a cherry blossom hairclip with one word in one of the petals; courage. "Okay, now it's my turn!" Daisy squealed as she tries to apply makeup to Chun-Yan's face, but she refuses.
"AIYAH, I'm not wearing makeup, aru!" Chun-Yan squeaked.
"But no one will recognize you, not even Franny and Ally!" Matilda protested and she calms down slightly.
"Okay then," Daisy begins to apply makeup on Chun-Yan as she groans throughout the whole ordeal; she even applies make up to the visible bruises on her body. I hear the doorbell ring and realize it was Heracles. "I'll be back…" I whispered to Matilda. "Please don't move; you're making it hard for me to work!" Daisy complained and big sister did as she was told.
"I got it!" I opened the door and there he was.
"Hi," I mumbled shyly.
"Wow, you look great!"
"Thanks come on in! I'm just helping my sister get ready. You don't mind waiting with Ludwig, right?" Heracles nodded and sat next to Ludwig. I headed back upstairs just as Daisy was done with the makeup.
"There you go, oh you look so pretty!" Chun-Yan sighed after not moving for a long time.
"Okay, now you have to wear Mama's dress," Chun-Yan's eyes widened as she smiled and gave me a hug.
"Thank you, thank you, and thank you!"
"Careful with the hair," Matilda complained.
"Sorry, now let's put this on!" I went to get the dress while Matilda and Daisy made sure she didn't look in the mirror just yet. I got the dress from the closet and laid it out. We all wanted to help Chun-Yan, but she insisted that I help her. I did up all the buttons and she was done.
Chun-Yan's POV (again)
"Wow," Matilda starts.
"You" Daisy mumbles at lost for words.
"Look" Sakura muttered.
"Amazing…" the three said at the same time.
"I do? Well, I want to see for myself to make sure it's true, aru." They nodded as I walks up to the mirror and gasps. "Wow, all of the bruises look like they're gone!" I murmured as I twirled in the dress.
"That's great," Matilda looked at her watch and gasped.
"I have to go, Alfred's here. I'll see you at the dance," Matilda left and it was just me, Sakura and Daisy.
"What about you, Sakura aru? Is he here, aru?" I asked my sister about Heracles.
"Well, he came when you were getting your makeup done. We'll be following behind you, Daisy and Ludwig on our way there. Oh, don't forget to wear this." Sakura handed me a mask as she and Daisy put theirs on.
"Okay, now we can leave!" Daisy squealed as we made our way down the stairs and I begged Sakura not to let me wear heels since I wasn't good at walking in them.
"Fine, you can wear your flats!" I smirked in victory as we made our way down.
"Finally, what took you so long?" Ludwig complained as Daisy rolled her eyes.
"Sorry, sweetie," she pecked his lips and he blushed once more.
"Well, are we ready?" Sakura asked. Everyone nodded as we made our way to our respective rides and we were off to the dance. I started to get butterflies as we made our way to the school. I prayed and hoped that no one would recognize me.
"You'll be fine, ve! No one will be able to recognize you!" Daisy assured me as we arrived.
"Let's hope not," I mumbled to myself as we walked up the steps to the school. I started to get nervous before Sakura wondered what was wrong.
"Are you okay?" I shook my head.
"What if someone recognizes me, especially Francine and Alice? I'll be doomed for sure!"
"Look at me…you'll be fine. Now, let me look at your watch." I showed her my watch and she begins to set it up. "Okay, when the alarm goes off, you have to go. It's only 9:50, so you have plenty of time to have fun. I want you to be happy for once…" I smiled at my sister and gave her a hug.
"Thank you," We let go and we enter the ballroom (yes, our school has a ballroom, deal with it,)
Ivan's POV
"I'm having so much fun…" Natalya whispered in my ear and I shuddered slightly from fear. The two of us were dancing, and honestly, I wasn't really happy.
"Yup, me too…" I lied to her, but she still smiles like she believed me. We continued to sway to the music before my eyes land on someone in the crowd; I couldn't tell who since she was wearing a mask like everyone else was, but something told me that I should go talk to her.
"Umm, can you get us some drinks?" I asked Natalya and she nodded, bounding off, giving me time to talk to her. I walked through the crowd and made a beeline for her.
"Umm, hi…" I mumbled, but she heard me.
"Hi there…" she smiled and I couldn't help but blush. No, I can't. I like Chun-Yan, not this girl I just met, but something is telling me it is her.
"Would you like to dance?"
Roche: BAM! I'm leaving it on a cliffy! Wow, two chapters in one day, man I'm beat. Okay, so please review your thoughts and this will only be 5 chapters, since I have other stories to attend to. I apologize if it was rushed. Good night from Canada!
