The tale of flightless fairy

The night

"Ellie, wake up. What happened?" Ethan's voice jolted me awake. I opened my eyes and found myself in my room.

Yes, we are going to Aurelia Emotio, traveling through the fairy ship. I am on my large bed, decorated with small plants and pearls. In the left corner of the room, there is a small round table on which lay my 'The Voice', and in the center is located a table where is residing my cruminae freely, In the corner to the right, there is a partition, beyond which is a washroom and a mirror. I thought kind of reminding myself and my situation.

As I touched my forehead, I found it all wet and sweaty...

''What happened to me?'' I asked myself

I looked at Ethan with a confused face and asked, "What are you doing here? Why am I all sweaty when it's not hot?"

"Yes, it's true. It is fresh April, the best time for us fairies to dance and sing. And here I was all sweaty,"

"I was coming to tell you that it's already night. Let's go to the open deck; it's a magical night, with mermaids in the ocean, and stars' pernicious beauty directly merging with the sea. And fireflies all around. But you didn't open the door. I waited for about 10 minutes, and I also used 'The Voice', but you didn't reply. So I had to use my little fire trick to melt the lock. And when I came here, I found that you were muttering some words like 'leave alone,' 'I will never,' and 'die,' something like these. And it was like you were in a lot of pain. Don't worry, Ellie, I am with you. Nothing can harm you," he repeated the last sentence twice with a strong, confident voice but teary eyes, still holding my hand...

Maybe he became overwhelmed seeing me like this. I felt somewhat happy and sad at the same time, seeing him like this. Happy that he cares about me, and sad... I don't know why. Just his eyes, I don't like to see tears in them. I hugged him but then just retreated immediately, realizing the situation. And then we both became silent.

Breaking off the awkward silence between us, "So you were saying something like a magical night?"I asked him,

He again, with his always-smiley face, said, "Oh yes, it's too much beautiful. We all are there. Would you like to join us?"

''Yeah, of course, why not? And since when have you become so much formal?" I said playfully hitting his arm.

"Uhmm... actually, I was wondering, Ellie," and then he paused and continued in one go, "Would I like to dance with you?"

"What?" I said, laughing at him. "You are so shy... Of course, you would like to dance with me. I am the most beautiful and perfect fairy you will ever meet," I said, flipping my all-white hair back.

He said, with flustered red cheeks resembling the evening sky, "I meant, would you like to dance with me?"

I didn't reply this time. Instead, I just pulled out my red dress, embodied with diamonds on the waist area, and asked him, "How is it?"

Just hearing him saying, "It's perfect, but would you?"

"Wait a sec," I said and moved onto the other partition of the room. I snapped my finger when I saw slowly my dress fly towards me, and then I changed into them and came out.

"How am I looking?"I asked him,

And he was just standing there, not uttering a word.

"I am asking you, how am I looking?" I repeated with a louder voice this time,

"Not so bad," he said, and I rolled my eyes.

"Would you, ?"He asked,

"Let's see," I replied, and we were silently walking out of the chamber, with my mind wondering what I had seen in my dreams. I was trying hard but couldn't remember any little bit of it. Then I heard Ethan's voice, breaking me off my trance.
