Unmasked (A Cinderella Story)

My Eyes grew wide,"No"

"Why Not?" She asked.

"It's wrong and I could get into serious trouble" I told her, Putting my hands on her hips.

"For going to a ball you're suppose to go to anyway?"

I stayed silent.

"Exactly, So when is it again?" She asked.

"Tommorow" I said, "Night"

"We can be ready by then"

"How?"

"Let me handle that" She put her hand on my shoulder.

"Meanwhile" She bends down and grabs a basket full of laundry.

"Do some laundry, Will you?"

I smiled and grabbed the basket.

~*~

"I have it" Harriet came from behind me while I was working in the garden.

"What?"

"Come" She grabbed my arm and pulled me away.

"Where are you taking me?" I asked as we started walking straight into the woods, Leaving the mansion.

"A friend of mine" She said.

We walked into the woods, Then I see a cabin.

"Anya?!" Harriet called," She's here!"

Then she came out.

A blond woman with blue eyes and a wide simle on her face.

"Mary?" She asked.

I nodded.

"Come" She waved her hand as if she were fanning herself.

I followed her into the cabin, So did Harriet.

"So, Going to the ball?" She asked.

I didn't say anything, I just smiled.

"Tonight" Harriet said.

We walked in, Her cabin was filled with dresses.

"Masquerade?"

I nodded.

"Black and White?"

"No" Harriet shook her head.

Anya smiled, Then looked at me.

Even though her cabin was filled with a lot of dresses, But there was one in the center that stood out.

A Red Dress.

"Here it it" Anya said as she walked over to it.

The Red Dress Was Mine.

"It's beautiful" I told her.

She smiled.

"But she still needs the mask" Harriet said behind me.

Anya turned around and walked away, Later to come back with something in her hand.

"Here" She showed me a red mask with a yellow line around it.

"It's beautiful" I said again.

"Yes it is" Harriet agreed.

"When is it?" Anya asked.

"Two and a Half hours" I told her, Not taking my eyes of the mask.

"Good, Come back early" She told me, Taking back the mask and putting it back where ever she brought it from.

She started to cover up the dress.

I nodded.

"Did you like it?" Harriet asked me as we were headed back.

"It was beautiful"

She smiled.

As we walked walked back into the garden, I already pictured myself in it.
