Chapter 14 - You're the Queen, Baby, I'm Your King
One of the final chapters, guys! :) I'll give you guys a tiny little hint about the end. And that is that it'll end at the dance.
"Eek!" Nan comes bouncing up, pulling Mina into a big hug. "It's true!"
"Wha-what's true?"
"You guys are a thing now! I knew if he skipped school with you it would work!"
Mina looks from Nan to me suspiciously. "She was helping you the entire time?"
"Just with that part." Nan says, and I give an innocent shrug. "Now hurry up, Mina! You'll be late to class!"
Mina's POV
I lay on my stomach on my bed, having just finished Season 3 of Once Upon A Time. I stare at the screen, distraught by the fact that Season 4 isn't on there yet. How will I live? I plant my face in the blankets on my bed, lost.
"Tsk, tsk. Mina, Mina, Mina." A now familiar voice sends shivers running up my spine as I lift my head slightly. "Don't tell me you've forgotten?"
I push myself into a sitting position, and there's Teague, leaning against the wall beside my door.
"What did I forge-" I stop short, and cut myself off. "Oh gosh, the dance!"
"You did forget, didn't you?" He shakes his head as I faceplant in my bed blankets again. "No matter. Stand up, then. I can fix this issue very easily."
I stand up as told, and Teague winks at me and waves his hand. A large black flash of light engulfs and blinds me. I fumble slightly as it disappears, the light spots still in my vision. Finally, they disappear, and I stare at myself in the mirror that's in the corner of my room. I'm amazed, because instead of the gray t-shirt and jeans I was wearing, I'm wearing a golden dress. It very much resembles the dress that Belle wears in the animated Beauty and the Beast movie by Disney. In fact, if my hair looked better, I would look amazing. I turn to admire it, amazed.
"Now sit." Teague's voice breaks me out of the trance, but I sit on my bed, as instructed. "Close your eyes too."
Teague runs his hands through my hair, untangling it like they're magic. Of course, magic probably is a factor, but it's still amazing. I remember him telling me to close my eyes, so I do, and can just feel his hands messing with my hair. After a few minutes, his hands stop.
"Open your eyes."
I do, and I'm amazed to see my hair is done...and it looks outstanding. I let out a quick sigh of amazement, and I turn to look at Teague, which literally knocks my socks off. He's wearing the Beast's outfit, and he...well, he actually looks pretty hot.
"You...wow...huh..." I can't formulate anything, and he chuckles.
"Come on, then." He smirks, taking my hand. "Ready to go, princess?"
Princess? I give up with telling him to not have pet names, and he smirks wider. "Yes, I'm ready."
He leads me out to the car, opening my door so I can step in. As we drive to the dance, I realize he still hasn't let go of my hand, which he grabbed again after we got in the car. I look at it, then at him, but he just keeps his boyish smirk on.
"Are you going to let go of my hand?"
"Now why would I want to do that?"
"Because if you don't let go of my hand I can't go anywhere without you."
"Exactly."
"But Teague, you can't do that if I need to use the bathroom."
"Calm down, Mina. We'll get to that when it comes to that." I just shake my head.
We reach the dance, and to get out of the car he's forced to release my hand. But once we're out, he takes it again, grinning, and leads me into the dance.
We're getting closer! Oh no! I hope you guys won't kill me when I end it.
My apologies on the shorter chapter as well. I know, it stinks, but it'll be worth it in the end!
Would you guys prefer, when this is done, if I post a new fanfiction that I have in the works, or the sequel next?
