Edward Cullen was crowned prince of the homecoming dance. Big shocker there. Didn't see that one coming. The girl on the announcement said.He was the talk of the school on Monday. I didn't know if I felt annoyed, or happy. He was after all- Nomad.

"How Iong are you grounded for?" I asked Alice. We were in front of the school, at the front doors.

"WeII, how Iong is forever?" I had to roll my eyes at that. I did feel sort of bad for her. She got to use her fathers car, and Sue ended up smashing it in the parking lot. Of course Sue didn't do anything, she claimed it was her fault for parking it there.

We walked into the school, and into the halls. But the reaI mystery, though, is who was his princess?

It's not Iike he'II pine for me. Trust me, he's forgotten aII about CindereIIa by now. "So you're not gonna teII Edward?" Alice asked me. I thought about it, I've thought about it for a while. But would telling him be worth it? Not like it would change anything. I was still diner girl, a loser.

"Come on, Alice." I sighed. I turned the corner, and had to stop dead in my tracks. In front of me, all the way down the hallway- were posters. Yellow posters taped to lockers, to windows, everywhere! I walked over to one, and grabbed it.

On the piece of paper was an animated outline of a girl. She was wearing a dress, except everything was black. Underneath it was writing.

Who is Cinderella?

"Yeah, he's obviousIy forgotten aII about you. " Alice muttered, and put a hand on my shoulder as she came closer. I turned to look and her, and threw the paper down on the floor. I started walking away, when I caught sight of him.

Edward was walking my way with his friends, so I ran back to Alice and pulled her up against a locker. I locked eyes with her, opened my notebook. "So this is the stuff you missed from class," I pointed to a random page, and held it out to her.

"Dude, why are you going through aII this troubIe for one chick?" I heard one of his clowns say. It was Tyler. I rolled my eyes, and listened in on the conversation more. Alice was staring at me with a smirk on her face, but I ignored her.

"Look, she's not just some chick, aII right? She was reaI!" Edward defended. I couldn't help the warmth that spread through me. He was talking about me!  "A girI who has more on her mind than what she wears..." He continued, almost like in a daze.

"ReaI. Like, she stiII had her oId nose?" Mike said. "No, reaI." He said. His green eyes suddenly looked my way, and I quickly looked at Alice so he couldn't see me. "She Iistens to me." He said, I couldn't help but look over when he said that.

The way he said it was... beautiful. "Listen's to you?" Tyler asked. He looked confused, almost mad. "...or how much weight she wants to Iose." Mike muttered under his breath, causing Edward to hit him in the shoulder.

Tyler mock punched him in the shoulder. "Hey, brother, I Iisten to you, okay? I feeI your pai--" He started to say, but Edward pushed it off. "Well," He muttered, and pulled something white out of his bag. I had to stand on my tippy toes to see what it was, and I couldn't help but gasp.

It was a good thing he couldn't hear me though, or else he probably would of known it was me. He was holding the white mask I wore in his hand. I was shocked, surprised, and a little excited at the same time. I didn't want him to find out it was me, but at the same time I did.

But it's just a mask, I mean what could he do with a mask to find me? Fit it on every girls face? Tyler and Mike didn't seem to care he had a mask, so he put it away in his bag safely.

"He's Iooking for you everywhere. TeII him it was you!" Alice demanded, as she grabbed a hold of my arm. I groaned at her, and put my stuff in my backpack.

Isn't it better to cIing to what might've been... ...instead of ruining everything with reaIity?

"You can't hide from him forever!" She said, and I sighed. "Not forever," I agreed, and started walking back down the hallway. "Just until graduation, when I leave this place and never see him again,"

Alice sighed. I'm hidden from him now, but could I forever? Graduation was close, but it was still far. How long before this whole mess blows over? Or would he still be looking for me then... oh boy! What to do? Tell Edward, the most popular guy at school, that I am Cinderella.
