I was scared to think where Jane was taking me. She is nice, (despite her kidnapping me; but I guess shes doing a favour; to meet my true love.) We walked up a grand amount of staircases till we came to a room. "Welcome to my room." She said. Wow. I've never been in her room before; because I've always been busy working. It was massive. I guess she was like a head maid to deserve this special treatment. I have a good room aswell, but I'd be lying if I said it was better. I was still staring until she gestured, "you can sit on the bed you know. Make yourself comfortable considering; you are going to be here a while." I didn't understand what she meant by that. "What do you mean?" I questioned. But she didn't answer; and made her way to her massive wardrobe. She got out a midnight blue dress; but I still didn't understand why she needed me. "Perfect." She mumbled. It was a bit quiet for me to here.
She put the dress against me; smiling. "Err Jane. Why are you making me try a dress?" I asked suddenly feeling a bit nervous. "The Master loves you in blue." She replied. I was confused; but excited.
"As you know; tonight is the masquerade ball in the palace. We are all making sure; that it goes perfect and eveything is ok. Including the Masters lady." She looked down waiting me to freak out. She must be physic because I did lose it a bit. "What do you mean Masters Lady? I am not his lady!" I yelled. Jane looked ready to fight back. "Oh Bella are you stupid. Wake up and smell the coffee. He is head over heels in love with you! You are in love with him. You kissed eachother; and you are denying it. And don't give me the line, 'we are just friends,' or 'he is just the master and I am the servant!" After she was down shouting, I bit my lip. "I am sorry you are right. So what is going to happen?"
Her eyes lit up and she explained everything. I am going to wear a mask, and the dress and we will have a slow dance together, just the two of us. Part of me feels excited but scared. "You two are meant to be together. I haven't seen Edward happy before; till you. He's never shut up talking about you since your first day. So take a chance. You might end up being the princess of this palace." She said giving a wink. Suddenly, I feel like a huge weight is on my shoulders....
10:00
I am in my dress, ready with my mask to go down to the ball. Instead of Isabella I feel like Cinderbella, ready to meet Prince Charming. I gracefully walk down the stept; with a huge smile on my face. I walked towards Edward, and spoke to him. "Hi." I blushed. "Oh hello pretty girl, I was just waiting for someone special, a girl that looks like you; but I can't seem to find her. Why doesn't shhe take off the mask; to reveal her pretty eyes?" He questioned with a smile. I did as he commanded. "Ah there she is. The Cinderella of the ball." He complimented. We talked a bit and made our way to the dance floor. "Would you like to dance?" He asked as he offered his hand. "Yes I would thank you." He pulled me close to his chest. I felt an eletric shock; the second we were together. As the music started we waltzed around the room to Beauty and the beast. In the middle of twirling , I heard people in awe and felt proud. I did too. After the dance, he let go of me. I felt dissapointed; but soon he said, "don't worry, I will be back Cinderella." That caused me to smile.
So then; I went to Jane. "That was very romantic. I could feel the chemistry and connection. You two are meant to be together. And well done that was fabulous." She congradulated. "I am just glad, I didn't trip or step on him." I joked. We shared a tiny laugh. "No; he wouldn't let you. When your against his frame, he is protecting you." Must she always be right?
I thought it was long enough; so I went over to him. But when I saw him; in the huge crowed, I was shocked. He was kissing another girl. As she turned I saw her face. It was Tanya Denali! I thought she was blonde, but she has dyed it brown. I was confused and hurt all at the same time. Tanya was a jealous witch, (ever since me and Edward kissed.) She was his fashion stylist; and Jane told me she had a crush on him for ages; but he never returned the favour. Now they were kissing in front of me! I just felt like I wanted to run away. I picked up my dress, but Jane stopped me. "Bella, listen, she dyed her hair pourpously to fool Edward thinking it was you." She informed. "Jane, it's not your fault, jus-." I just ran for it. I ran to the gardens were we shared our first kiss; to cry. Cry what was left of my broken heart.
