BEAUTY AND THE BEAST [RICKY HORROR]

Chapter 1: Temper, Temper

Ricky's POV

I yelled again, slamming my fist into a mirror on the wall.

"Your Majesty, please! We cannot afford to have a mess like this in the palace for tonight! I implore you, please, stop this temper!" the Head Butler, Westing, yelped, wringing his hands.

"I SPECIFICALLY TOLD THEM THAT I WANTED THE OTHER COLOR FOR THE DRAPES, BUT NO! NO ONE EVER FUCKING LISTENS TO ME! EVER!" I screamed, knocking over a vase filled with white roses and water.

I turned on my heel and stormed down the lushly decorated hallway, heading back to my chambers. I slammed the double doors so hard the wall shook, flopping down onto my huge four-poster bed.

Tonight was my huge birthday ball my friends insisted on throwing for me. Ugh, I hated parties so much, I preferred to be either alone or just being myself with my tight circle of friends. I eventually dozed off for a few hours, only to be awoken by a shaky knock at the door. 

I stomped over to it, and opened it. A cowering servant stood there, holding a pressed white dress shirt, a black bowtie, black dress pants, black gloves, black shoes, a black dress coat with tails, and an elaborately decorated black mask. 

I took the clothing gently, so as not to give the poor girl a heart attack. 

"Thank you," I said. "You may go,"

She turned and ran, down the hall and down the stairs beyond. 

I groaned and shut the door, going back to my bed to change. I slipped on the white shirt, and put the bowtie on around my throat. I pulled on the pants, and slipped on black socks. I tied the laces of the shoes, and then put on the jacket, buttoning it up. I put on the gloves, slicked my hair back with gel, and then put the Venetian mask on around my face. I could already hear guests being let in, so I took a deep breath, and opened my doors.
