Matchmaking Mishaps

What do you do when two people are so blindly in love that neither are fully aware of it so refuse to take action? Take action into your own hands, just like Ryan knows all about… Or in which Carter conforms and Ryan just can't be asked anymore.

CarterXDana/SOAverse/Lightspeed Rescue/ Fluffy, awkwardness and amusement.

CHAPTER TWO

Prep Work Needed

"But I don't understand." Kelsey rolled her crystal blue coloured eyes, exchanging an irritated look with Joel before she returned her attention to the oldest Mitchell sibling.

"I thought we'd been over this Ryan! What's not to get?!"

"Why would they want to do that?!"

"Because they like each other man." Joel blurted. Chad, who stood solemnly in the corner, nodded in agreement, "But they're both too awkward to admit it."

"I've been trying to get her to confess it since we joined Lightspeed but she just blushes and mutters stuff." Kelsey added, yet Ryan still looked completely horrified- but what about cooties?! "Okay." Kelsey withdrew a video tape from her backpack, passing it over to Ryan who stared down at it. 'Cinderella'? How is this any use?! "Watch this, it'll explain all..."

ONE HOUR LATER

"Oh. My..." Ryan sat directly in front of the TV screen in his room, crouched like a frog; the room devoid of any light besides the porthole on the door that led to the hallway, and the TV screen. "This explains EVERYTHING! Dana is Cinderella and Carter is Prince Charming!" Ryan paused a moment, another realisation coming to mind. "Why does she get to be Cinderella?! I wanted to be Cinderella!"

"Excuse me?!" Ryan looked to the door to see Carter, who had decided to make his appearance known. The fireman stared, shocked, at the implications of Ryan's yelling. "Y-You want to be the Cinderella t-to my P-Prince Charming?!"

"You're not supposed to be in here!"

"I'm sorry Ryan but I don't like you in that way,"

"GET OUT!" The conversation ended with Ryan throwing a shoe at Carter and the latter ducking out of the room, airborne shoe hitting the automatic door instead. Ryan turned back to his frog-crouched position in front of the TV screen, adopting a thinking pose as he did. "Hmmmm...I suppose I can let Dana be Cinderella this time 'cause it makes sense with Carter being Prince Charming...waaaaiiitt does that mean I'm one of the ugly stepsisters? No, no, I'm trying to help them get together... Ooh! I know! I am the skinny mouse! Kelsey can be the fat mouse, Joel can be the bird and Chad can be the broom! And Dad..is the evil stepmother...? Huh. And... Oh my gosh Angela is the cat! You know, I'm actually not that surprised." He focused on the screen again and watched as Cinderella placed her foot in the glass slipper.

A determined smirk grew on his lips. "I am going to get you two, come what may, I won't back down."


[A/N]

GREG: So, a short and sweet chapter to explain Ryan's Cinderella references and to introduce the story; and its adorable! Oh, I forgot last time to fangirl over the cover... I seriously love it :3 Dana's all cute and then Carter is smelling her hair like a stalker... Bad photo timing XD

SAM: True. Also, I love Ryan and his Cinderella obsession c: Okay, so big thank you to those who reviewed, followed and faved; CarterlovesDana, grandprincessanastasiaromanov5, Agent Gibbs, Star Writer 0303, kat183 and .5!

GREG: And to CarterlovesDana; yes, they shouldn't have been eavesdropping and Carter's awkwardness is adorable- it gets worse, trust us. Legendary Battle; they are so married.

SAM: Most likely with 'a few' kids *sneaky side glance to Greg*- I'm glad it wasn't just us who figured they would be.

GREG: Ryan would make an 'interesting' uncle... The kids would be able to quote Cinderella...

SAM: Pfft yah and other things...*another sneaky side glance to Greg* Wow, we're doing a lot of hinting right now.

GREG: And in the other chapter... 'Happily married' *Side glance smirk*

SAM: Tch yeah. Anywho, I do hope you enjoy this mini chapter!

GREG: And keep watching out for the next chapter... Though I doubt it'll be up for like two weeks *Blatant glare at Sam* we're writing Chapter Four... But Sam is easily distracted so, we'll see XD

SAM: *sleepy stretch then slams Pringle's down*...Greg just mentioned that it seems like we're always eating when we're writing these authors notes...I guess it's just snacking work *leshrugs*

GREG: Today Pringles, Monday cookies! Anyway, adios and stuff...

SAM: Ciao~!
