Jack and Starr

On getting there Starr was looking for her friends. Where is Mia? Jack asked interrupting her thought. She replied, shush you dummy, we just got here remember? She gave him a confused look. Starr saw them talking at a corner, unaware of her arrival.

Let's go meet them, Jack said with eagerness in his eyes. Jack and Starr approached them. They seemed to be engrossed in their little talk as they still didn't notice them even though they were close. Starr voice interrupted their talk, sup guys, she said.

Omg Starr, I didn't see you there, Mia said. Jack cuts in, uhmm I don't mean to ruin your... your whatever but please can I borrow Mia for some time. They all smiled and Pearl pushed Mia towards jack, she's all yours, she said. Jack and Mia excused themselves.

Starr the ench.... Jessica was about to talk but Starr covered her mouth. Shh what do you think you are doing, someone might hear, Starr said. Jessica replies saying can't I make a sentence with the word "enchanted". Pearl changed the topic, Starr the princess, she said.

Emma who seemed to be just listening finally spoke, what are you wearing to ball Starr?. Starr answered "it's in my bag". Common let's see, Jessica said. No! You will see in the dress during the ball, she answered. With Jeff right, pearl teased. STOP!!, she said shyly.

She was debating on telling them her dream or not, she concluded on telling them, as she opened her mouth to say a word Becky interrupts. HI, Becky greeted. Hmm maybe I should keep the dream to myself, she thought, oh hi Becky how are you?. I'm fine thank you, Becky answered. Why about you and Adam, Emma said quickly.

Becky paused and forced a smiled, me and Adam? Drop the act, what's up with the two of you? Emma asked. Nothing, she answered. Emma replies, don't act stubborn if he apologize or approach you. Oh I see, so he told you all of this, Becky said. We know you still love him, Jessica added and Starr advised her, you guys should get back together. Emma said, "Don't let your ego get in the way of your love Becky".

Becky burst into tears, I know.. I still love him but... I don't know, she said with teary eyes. Emma pulled her in for a hug, get yourself together and patch things up with him, she said while consoling her. Thanks everyone and Emma I owe you one if only my brother had seen what he left and Emma replied sadly "right?" Lets go to class, Pearl said.

They all went to class.

Jack and Mia*

Why did you..... shh, jack cuts in, i wanted to be able to hold you my baby, he said as he pulled her close and she replied, here I am. I know sweetie and I'm never letting you go, he said sweetly. You are so cute when you blush, I'm not blushing, she said with her face as red as a lobster. He said smiling, "I can't wait to see you at the ball", me neither, she replied. They embraced each other and went to class.

Time flew. It was already time for the ball, the ladies and gents were getting ready. The ladies finally got ready after a long time and they all went Down to the hall, they were all looking ravishing.

Starr was dressed in a blue ball gown with stripes, a sky blue shoe and a diamond necklace which all complimented her eyes. Mia wore a thick short black gown with long boots, a golden earring and chain and a black purse, Jessica wore a lion coated gown and shoe, a fur scarf and a silver bracelet.

Adam went to meet Becky and get greeted her nervously, hey B..ec.k.y. What's up, she answered. Uhhm I'm sorry.....(silence) I said I'm sorry.....(silence) I said I'm sorry and I really mean it, pleas find it in your heart to forgive me that's all I want to say, I will take my leave, he said.

I was a fool to think that you wanted to get back with me, she said on the verge of tears. Becky I was scared... of losing you. You were scared? You didn't even.., she turned to leave but Adam held her arm and said, you always make the mistake of leaving.

So you mean all what happened was my fault huh? She asked. In a way it was you fault .. i mean it was equally our fault. So you held me responsible? She asked again. Noo... calm down b because of this petty fight we were not able to communicate, you are so stubborn, he said angrily. (Started sobbing) you always bring up a reason, so you are Mr right and I'm miss wrong.

nooo, he replied looking restless, he wiped her tears , you don't ever listen do you? You know I can't bare to see you cry. She laughed, you can't bare to see me cry? I've been crying Adam, my heart has been crying, you left me all alone to cry , my heart yearns for you every day. I'm sorry, he said sadly.
