Inspired by A Cinderella Story

"Come on, May!" Ash urged, begging the brunette to come with him. "We don't have all night."

"What if Hailey and Brianna would see me? You know, they could tell Jessabelle." She replied, anxiously shifting her eyes at the Viridian Hotel then back to Ash.

"You have your mask." Ash replied, impatiently waiting for her to come.

"But.. But Jessabelle said she'd be back at the diner by 12." May continued to protest, she looked like she needed a breather right now.

Ash paused, before an idea crept into his mind. "Cellphone, woman." He gestured for her to take out the material and she hesitantly handed it to him. "Here, I set it at quarter to twelve, now shoo, let's go, and for the second time, I'm telling you to take my cape off the dress, you look amazing enough, Drew won't even recognize you."

The latter blushed before muttering some words, and finally entered the venue.

The place was packed with people of different costumes of different sizes, it was going to be hard finding him, Nomad.

Almost everyone stopped dancing as she walked down the stairs, carefully trying not to trip over herself.

"Love the dress, hate her." Melody muttered to her group, Serena, though, was frowning. Melody held such a deep grudge against May for no reason at all, unbeknownst the sea of people, this girl was the May Maple, though a few recognized her, they stayed quiet.

"Dude, you're so mean, you get to be Prince Charming and we get to be the wimps in wigs." The three had agreed they'd be the Three Musketeers, more like, Barry cooked up the plan and convinced them. "Scratch that, Barry is the scrawny wimp in a wig."

"Hey!" Barry interjected, his marmalade eyes set in a cold glare, facing Gary. "I am not weak!"

"Maybe, but you're a wimp, that's for sure."

Drew decided to leave while his friends were bickering over little things again. Rolling his eyes, he went to go to the damn place he asked her to go to.

May was starting to get more and more anxious, Ash was probably having the time of his life, eating off the buffet table like the guy he was.

"Hello." The brunette turned to see Brendan Birch, the playboy-in-the-making guy who loved to break girls' hearts. May was disappointed at the scale.

"Are you Nomad?" May asked, just to confirm her suspicions.

The boy looked confused, May was also confused as to what he was wearing, a trainer, maybe. "Nomad?"

"Yes, I have travelled through time and space to find you." Another voice piped up, and then May's hopes just went down the drain of despair, her heart dropped.

"F-Forest? Are you Nomad?" May asked, horrified. I knew it, this was too good to be true.

"Indeed, my lady."

Forget sad, she was downright devastated, that's when she realized he had no idea what she was talking about, a few eccentric and weirded-out and 'what the fuck' faces were given.

May just wanted the ground to swallow her up and the people to ever forget she existed.

"I... Forest, I feel really thirsty right now. I should get some punch." May said as kindly as she could, trying to find a way to escape.

"Certainly." He offered and Brendan and he raced to see who was getting the punch first.

May turned to leave, right now was the best time.

"Princeton Girl?" Another voice came, her eyes widened.

"Drew Hayden? You're Nomad?"

"W-well, are you Princeton Girl?" Drew asked her. "Sorry if my disguise is too uh.."

"No! No! It's okay!" May insisted, waving her arms around like a madman. "I mean-- you're Drew Hayden, the school's quarterback."

Brendan came back without any Forest to be found. "Hayden? A devastating blow, but a worthy opponent."

"Let's go!" Drew pulled her away to the hotel's garden, not knowing a teacher passed by and wrote something down.

Bc too lazy to continue.
