Disclaimer: I do not own anything associated with the webtoon "Ever After High" or its characters. Ever After High is owned by Mattel and the author of the Ever After High books, Shannon Hale. Anyway, I decided to do a collection of drabbles featuring canon, fanon and crack couples of Ever After High with a different theme. I hope you enjoy!
Chapter 2: Blondie Lockes and Sparrow Hood - Serenade
Sparrow Hood was busy hanging around his locker and practicing his guitar. His trusty guitar always stayed with him since he was around 13. Every day and every night, he would practice his guitar. And every lesson that he learned, he was really starting to get good at his work. He learned every lick, every strum and learned every technique there was.
Except that he had a problem. He needed someone to notice his talent so that everyone could see how great Sparrow is. And what better way to do it than the school's local Mirrorcast show, hosted by Blondie Lockes? That oughta be a stepping stone for Sparrow nonetheless! The son of Robin Hood insisted Blondie that he do her Mirrorcast show focused on him. Luckily for Blondie, she didn't have any ideas on what to do for her show.
Along with her companion, Dexter Charming, Blondie stood beside Sparrow inside his dorm room, opening up her show.
"With me on today's show is Sparrow Hood, the son of Robin Hood!" Blondie exclaimed, "And just for a little extra treat, he's gonna treat us to a little song that he wrote. Is that right, Sparrow?"
"You better believe it, babe!" Sparrow winked at her, "This song goes out to a certain babe, which shall remain unnamed."
"Wow, that sounds delightful!" Blondie squealed, "Go right ahead."
As Blondie stepped aside, Sparrow plugged his trusty guitar onto the speaker. With a deep breath, he started strumming the notes, as if it sounded like the opening of a 1980s rock ballad. The song sounded pretty much laid-back. Sometimes, Sparrow would somehow break into a good hard rock song, but strangely, he decided to mellow down a bit.
With his fingers strumming through the guitar, Sparrow began to sing.
Oh, sweet little lady
Oh, how you always amaze me
With your light blonde hair and your big blue eyes
You make my heart feel so hypnotized
You make my heart rock out
With the beat of a drum
Your smile's so good it makes my knees go numb
And sometimes I wonder if it feels so right
To make you my lady tonight
Oh, you turn my heart out
For this moment tonight
If you're with me, I'll never give up the fight
If I ran to you, I would lose my mind
But if I could have one thing to say
Will you be my rock of love today?
Suddenly, Sparrow stopped playing the guitar and singing at the same time. Blondie was left confused, thinking if he had more lyrics, or the song was just about over from there.
"I had more to sing, but that rotten bird came in here and took my note away." Sparrow informed him.
"Oh, it doesn't matter!" Blondie giggled, "I thought it was wonderful and cute. I'm certain that woman you love would like it."
"Yeah, she probably would." The guitarist chuckled.
But then, he shot a glare right at Blondie for some reason.
"But about that babe I referred to you about..." Sparrow replied.
"Yeah, what about her?" Blondie raised her eyebrow.
However, it was unexpected when Sparrow gave Blondie a tender kiss on the lips. This unexpected compliment from Sparrow left Blondie (and Dexter) speechless as ever. Never had the daughter of Goldilocks expected this to happen. But it did, anyway.
With Blondie still speechless, Sparrow cracked a smile to her and said, "I wrote that song about you."
In an instant, Blondie blushed like a light, being touched of the fact that Sparrow would serenade her like this. The only think Blondie could reply with was a cute smile. After then, she managed to utter out these simple words:
"That felt just right..."
P.S.: I came up with those lyrics for Sparrow himself. Those lyrics don't belong to anyone as far as I'm concerned. Just to let everyone know.
I'm not gonna lie, but how come every story/chapter I write involve Blondie and Sparrow ends out with the phrase just right? Because I thought that this was indeed 'just right'.
Anyway, got any couple and theme I could use for future chapters? Just PM or review me, and I'll see what I can do! Don't forget the feedback as well!
