it's true.If you want to dance with the prince you have to be clean." "I don't want to dance with the prince." "You don't?"Haley practically screamed at me. "No." "Girl-gone-crazzzy!"Sally told Haley. "You got that right,"Haley agreed. I looked at them."Just because I don't drool over the prince mean I'm crazy." "Yeah it does,"Haley said. "We don't drool over him,"Sally said. I rolled my eyes at both of them. "Just take a bath,"Sally ordered. "Turn around then." They did.I pulled off all my clothes and dived into the cold water. "Done?"one of them asked. "Yeah." They turned back around. "You know you don't have to stay,"I told them. Sally ran back up the hill and left me with Haley. "You can go too." "I know but....can I ask you something?" "Yeah,sure.What's up?" She hesitated."When you're in love....you-you're not going to leave us,right?" "Of course not." She smiled ."Bye." She ran up the hill just like Sally. I spent twenty minutes scrubbing myself all over.I did look cleaner.I pulled on my clothes and went back to the abandon house. They were eating. Boa saw'll me first."Wow."I smiled for the first time in years.Boa started to clap."SHE SMILED!!!!" They all clapped. "Smile again!"Boa shouted. I shook my head. "SMILE AGAIN!SMILE AGAIN!SMILE AGAIN!"they said together. I couldn't help myself. "Yeah." The twins circled me and hugged me. After that,we settled down,we ate and got ready to sleep.I started to walk to my room when Clare stopped me."You're sleeping with Boa on the bed." "Why?" "'Cause you can't sleep on the floor.You'll get dirty." "O....kay."I went to the other room.Boa was pulling on a shirt."Cover up,Boa." Boa pulled his shirt down and smiled."So we're roommates?" "Apparently." Boa looked at the bed."Do you have a side that you sleep on?" "Next to the wall." He looked at me."All yours." I crawled across the bed and layed down.Boa turned off the light and layed next to me. I closed my eyes and fell to sleep. I woke up to Haley leaning over me. "By time!Come on."She grabbed my wrist and sat me up. "What do you want?" "To do your hair." I sighed."You can do that later." "Christal,you've slept half the day." "I did?" She nodded."It's almost seven." I pulled my hair back."I'll do my hair." "But-" I cut her off with a look. "Fine." "Um,go get my dress." She ran out the room and came back with the dress and shoe box."Thanks.Now get out so I can change." She ran out and shut the door behind her.I quickly changed into the dress and started to do my hair. Half my hair up and half down. I grabbed the shoe box and opened it.Inside was a diamond neckless and earings and a pair of glass slippers.I stared at them for a while and then put on the jewerly along with the shoes. I opened the door and heard two gasps,one "wow" and a"you look.....beautiful." Boa said it. The twins giggled and Clare smiled.Boa just stared at me. At first I didn't notice him wearing the tuxedo.I raised an eyebrow."Whoa,Boa,you clean up good." He smiled."Well shall we go?"He held out his arm. "We shall."I slipped my arm around his. We walked out the house,down the mile long dirt road,all the way to the castle. "You have the bookbags,right?" He nodded. We walked up the stairs, passed the Grand Doors and into the Ballroom.We walked over to the snack table. Boa took off his tuxedo coat along with th bookbags.He hid them under the table and started stuffing one with fruit.I made sure no one saw. A short,stubby man grabbed my arm."Excuse me ma'am,are you single?" I looked at the him suspiciously."Yeeeeaaah." "Come with me."He pulled me to a long line and left me there. I didn't know why I was standing there for until about two hours later when there were two people in front of me.A song was over and the prince came and grabbed a girl.They started to dance. My blood boiled.I stood in line for two hours for something I didn't want. I rose my dress off the ground and walked out of line,across the dance floor to the snack table. Boa stared at me."You already danced with him?" "You knew that line was for dancing with the prince?" He nodded. I glared at him."WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME BEFORE I STOOD THERE FOR TWO LONG HOURS?" He shrugged."I thought you probably wanted to dance with him. "I TOLD YOU YESTERDAY I DIDN'T LIKE HIM SO WHY WOULD I DANCE WITH HIM!"I barked. "Calm down.I thought you were kidding." "I WASN'T KIDDING!" "I know now.Lets get out of here." I took a deep breath and said,"okay." "Go distract the guard." I looked at the doors.There was just one guard.I walked up to him. "Hey,"I said in a sweet voice. "Hello."Now that I got closer I noticed the guard was the kings' annoucer. "Would you like to dance?" "Errr I-" "Come on,please?" He smiled."Okay." We walked to the dance floor,which was crowded with other people.He placed a hand on my waist and slipped the other one in my hand. And then we started to Waltz. When I saw Boa leave the room I opened my mouth to tell the man I had to use the bathroom when I was interrupted by someone. "Nelles,you don't mind if I cut in?" 'Nelles' pulled away."Why of course not." He bowed to me and.........it was the prince!

 

The prince smiled."May I have this dance?" I shook my head. He laughed.Out of nowhere he grabbed my hand and kissed it. I was speachless. He smiled and grabbed my waist like 'Nelles' but firmer and wrapped his fingers around mine. He led. "I happened to see you walk away from the line,were you tired of waiting? I bit my tongue not to say anything that will mess the plan up. "You look very beautiful,"he whispered in my ear. "Um,I got to use the bathroom." He looked at me and smiled."Okay but can I have another dance later?" I bit my lower lip. Lie!

I faked smile."Okay." He twirled me around. He stared at me for a while like he was trying to get every detail of my face. He finally let go of my hand. And what I did surprised him......I ran away. I heard him running after me. I stopped and took off the slippers. "Wait!" I didn't look back.I just ran and stopped outside when I ran into Boa. "Hey!Oh it's you.Where hav-" "Lets go!" "Why?" I bended down and grabbed a bookbag.I grabbed Boas' hand and pulled him. We ran all the way home. Boa stopped at the porch and said between gulps of air,"why...did...we...run..all..the..way... here?" I thought for a moment."The guard was chasing me."It was partly true except it was the prince. "Why?" "'Cause he saw us steal." Boa looked at me."How come he didn't chase me instead?" I shrugged. His eyes narrowed. "I'm sleepy."I walked in the house,dropped the bookbag on the floor and walked in the room.Boa did the same. I grabbed my normal clothes off the floor and went to the bathroom to change. When I came out Boa was already asleep.I crawled over him as quietly as I could. I closed my eyes and thought 'bout my parents,the prince and the.....king. The king...... My parents........ And the stupid prince!

 

Daniel- Mystery Girl

 

 

"Who's the girl-excuse me- lucky

 

girl?"Nelles asked me. I've seen all the pictures of the ladies in the village but.. she wasn't there. The mysterious girl. "My prince?"Nelles said. "I'm sorry,what?" "My prince,would you like some privacy?" "Yea-yes,please." Nelles nodded and left. I moved the pictures aside and got up and walked to my desk drawer.I got an old sketch pad and pencil.I went back to my bed and opened the sketch pad to the first page. I started to draw her

 

christal blue eyes,nose,mouth,head.ears and her light brown hair. I looked at my masterpiece.It did looked like her. I turned the page to a new one and drew her reaction when I kissed her hand. I turned to a new one and drew her all. I turned the pages over and over drawing different pictures of her. I was on the ninth sketch when I heard a soft knock on my door and my moms' gentle,crooning voice say,"may I come in?" "Errr,yes."I closed the sketch pad and hid it under the bed. She opened the door and walked to my bed."Did you find her

 

?" She said her

 

. She couldn't possibily know about her. "Not yet,"I told her. "Do you mean in the pictures or at the ball?" "I mean in the pictures." "Well how does she look?" I was about to grab the sketch pad when my father came in my room and said,"Daniel,may I see your Cinderella." My mother turned to him."Her picture is not there." "If she is not in that pile of pictures it either means she is new to the village,she is just visiting or she is a filthy street rat

 

."My father hated street rats.He never told me why though. "She must be new,"my mother decided. I nodded in agreement. "Then I'll send my finest men to search for her,"my father said. "Like a manhunt?"I asked. "Yes.A manhunt." "Father,may I accompany?" "Mmmm,I don't kn-" "Oh,Royce,let him,"my mother told him. "Alright but first tell me her name?" "She didn't tell me her name." "Okay.....describe her." I grabbed my sketch pad,got up,handed it to him and said,"bye."as I ran out my room,out the castle and into the village. Two hours after I left the castle I found out...............nothing. I looked at my sketches,that my dads men putted up all over the village,and signed. I started to walk back home when I saw a little girl with a watermelon about her own size. A sreet rat

,I thought. She grabbed a sketch of her.

"Excuse me."I said roughly. She jumped and turned sharply to me.Her expression changed from angry and scared to surprise and joyful.Her small round cheeks turn pink.She was small and skinny. "Oh,mmmy prince." My anger left as soon as it came."Hello...........would you like some help with that?" She looked at her watermelon." Ummmmm,no. I got it." I nodded. She looked back at the sketch." Are you looking for Chr-" She stopped herself. " Excuse me?" I asked. Her hazel eyes got big." Nothing." I looked at the sketch to the girl." Do you know her?" Her small mouth opened. Instead of answering the question, she grabbed the sketch and ran down a dark alley.
