I stare at the mirrior, examing my fancy green dress, it brings out my eyes, that's what Eliza-beth said. I pinned my hair up and hid my guns and knife under my dress, they wouldn't pat down me. Now, if i had on my normal get up. They'd wouldn't even let me in. I wonder if Matt's rich. I began walking out the door. I wonder if he knows who I am. I push open the door and step into the empty bar, all at the party. I wonder what his actual father is like. I walk down the stairs like a moment in Cinderella. I notice Matt standing at the bottom of the stairs.
"Wow, you're so beautiful" He smiles.
"I was supposed to meet you at the sheriff's office" I stare at him. He takes a minute to repsond he was still exmaining me.
"Oh... yeah sorry, I didn't want to make you walk, it's the ungentleman thing to do" He chuckled lightly. Don't fall in love. Don't fall in love. Don't fall in love. Don't fall in love. He links his arm around mine and he head for the Mayor's mansion. We laugh and talk the whole walk there. The whole time I repeat "Don't fall in love, he is an enemy" in my head. The mansion was huge! Matt chuckled when he saw me gasp. He's been in here before, if he really new me, he wouldn't like me so much anymore. We prance into the big court room. There was a buffet, wooden dancing square in the middle and a stage with..... oh my god. A stage with Deadshot in chains. He was shirtless, he had a very muscular body. He had his head hanging. Is..... Is he dead....? He looks up at me. His eyes come to life, he looks astonished, he must of thought i wouldn't come, yes that's it. He smiles his stupid devilish smile.
"Dance with me?" He breaks into my thoughts.
"Oh yes, sorry, just zoned out" I smile.
"I wouldn't stare at his muscles so much, he may look handsome and an okay guy, but he has killed too many people" He takes my hand and leads me to the dance floor, where we sway to the soft beat played by a young man and woman. The sheriff walks up on the second stage where the band was.
"Excuse me!" He yells out into the crowd. The music stops and everyone pays attention to him. Here's my chance. I break away silently from Matt, I whisper "sorry" to myself, not like that's going to change anything. I sneak onto stage and began unchaining him. I examine his back, there are whip lashes. I feel them with my hand. I get him loose and he gives me that damned signature smile. He grabs my hand and leads me to a ladder in the back that leads to the rafters in the mansion, he already had this planned out. I look down at the people to see Matt, he looks up at me. At first he is alarmed. I paniced and grabbed Deadshot and pulled him towards me and gave him a quick peck on the lips. He follows my gaze and sees Matt. Matt's eyes soften and he realizes that I planned this from the starts and maybe he thinks I did it out of love. He gives me a quick nod. Seconds, before the sheriff is about to refrence to the prisoner. Matt looks at his drink and hits the guy next to them. They get into a huge fight. The sheriff jumps in to break them up. We crawl faster and faster until we are at a window. He opens it quickly. It's leads to a series of roofs. He jumps on and I'm soon behind him. I slip and he quickly grabs my hands and pulls me up.
"You almost fell there princess" He smiles his signature smile. We run on the roofs, my dress gets torn at the hem. He pulls a single bobby pin out of my hair, it causes my hair to crash into an chaotic mess.
"Hey, Deadshot is gone" I hear distantly. The sheriff runs outside shooting an array of bullets at us. We jump and slide to dodge them. He takes a running jump and rolls onto the ground. I try the same thing but fall into a terrible bones breaking pose. He tries to help me up, but I fall quickly back down. He sighs in frusration and he picks me up wedding style. He runs into the desert swearing under his breath.
"You know, princess, no one has ever put themself in so much danger for me" He smiles.
