Y/N's POV

Everyone knows the story of Cinderella.  Hardly, though anyone could ever meet their prince charming.  If we could only be so lucky.  But maybe, just maybe I can meet mine tonight.  Why do I say that?  Cause the town is throwing a masquerade ball for the Harvest Festival tonight.  Everyone is invited.  Well, according to my mother and sisters, I'm not.  But, I didn't care.  I wanted to go out and have fun for once.  Luckily, my best friend, (y/bf/n), helped me get out of the house and helped me pick out a dress.  We went to all the stores but they were all sold out of dresses but we finally came across a store we never seen before...The Fairy Princess Dress store.  I swear I never seen it, but I shook it off.  The ball was important.  The woman who owned the store was amazing.  She helped me find the perfect dress (dress picture and mask up above).  She even added clear slippers, they almost looked like glass but they were just rubber.  But still beautiful and perfect.  (Y/bf/n) Helped with my hair and make-up and pretty soon we were all dressed for the ball.  I snuck out of the house a little while after my mother and sisters left.  At least I know what they are wearing so I can avoid them. 

"I'm so freaking nervous." I said as we were riding a taxi to the party.  My whole body was trembling.

"Girl, don't worry.  You're gonna rock the ball and have a blast.  Forget your mom and wicked sisters of the west.  Let them melt in the corner while you shine." (Y/Bf/) said.

I chuckled and rubbed my hands together, "You're right.  Screw 'em.  I want to have fun."  I smiled at her and fixed my mask in the mirror. 

"Maybe you'll meet a hottie tonight." She taunted. 

I shook my head and laughed, "Whatever happens tonight, I have a feeling it's something I'm gonna cherish forever."  I feel her pull me into a comforting hug and before we knew it, we arrived. 

She was dressed in a beautiful pink poofy dress with a matching mask.  Almost similar to my dress and mask.   She went inside first but I stayed outside to catch a few breaths of encouragement.

Harry's POV

I sighed, bored out of my mind as I leaned against the wall, listening to this beautiful girl talk about her likes...which was shoes, shopping, make-up.  Her voice was similar to the chipmunks on that cartoon.  I just simply nodded politely and tried to catch a few things to make it seem like I was listening.  I just want to perform and get the heck out of here.  All these girls here are the same.  But, night is still young, maybe I'll meet the girl of my dreams here.  God, I hope so...anything to get away from this chipmunk woman.   Even her costume was ridiculous.  She was like a mixture of a playboy bunny and a high-maintenance princess out of a story book, but like a wicked stepsister. I think she said her name was Elizabeth.

"And, like, I was picking out a color of lipstick but I couldn't decide either nude frost, or berry blast.  They both seemed the same but one was darker than the other...."  She went on and on and on....and on.  Jesus, remove the batteries from this energizer bunny! 

"Excuse me; my bandmates are getting my attention.  I'll talk to you later, love." I said and quickly ran away.

I sighed a big breath of relief as I got away from her.  I ignored her calls and finally could have a little bit of peace. 

Then, another like her popped up but unlike her, she was like a green bunny.  This one in front of me was a pink bunny.  "You're, like, with the band, aren't you?" She asked, twirling her fingers in her long red hair.  Her voice was the same as the green bunny's.
