Mystique

Chapter 2

Now I knew what was going on. My parents were sending another damn fairy for me to go on a date with!

" Stella open the door! Stop standing there star stuck!"

Great! Fairies had great hearing and eye sight he probably thought I was excited for this.

" Aunt Rose I am not in the mood for another dinner date."

" You don't have a choice Stella, Derek was willing to come all the way to Michigan to get to know you. He is also staying here for a while. Your parents think he is the one for you."

" What, no way!"

" Stella open the damn door, and behave!! "

I walked over to the door and plastered the most fake smile I could onto my face. When I opened the door I was taken aback, Derek was stunning. He started laughing and my jaw fell open, but I recovered quickly and glared at him.

" What, I heard your whole conversation to your Aunt and it was funny."

" Ha ha ha very funny. Come on in. " I said flatly.

He just smirked at me and walked on by. But, I couldn't get over his crystal blue eyes. They were different but beautiful. My eyes were an autumn red.

" Well, hello I am Stella's Aunt I hope you enjoyed your flight?"

My Aunt was such a charmer partly because she was part nymph.

" Yes it was lovely Miss Rose, I hope I am not an inconvenience? "

Fairies have wings, which we use to fly, but to be able to hide ourselves among humans we can suck them back into our skin.

" No your not at all, right Stella?"

" No of course not Derek." I answered.

" Thank you, Stella. "

" I can help you with dinner Aunt Rose?" I asked more then stated.

" I'm sure Derek would love to get to know you. "

"Yes, actually if Stella wouldn't mind?"

" No, of course she would love to. "

I was mad at my Aunt for answering for me, but I was happy Derek even considered my feelings at all, most of the suitors didn't care.

"Stella go chat and I will call you when dinner is ready."

" Okay."

"Follow me, Derek."

I lead Derek into the living room and he sits across from me.

" So what emotion do you specialize in?"

" Love, you?"

" Sadness."

" Oh, I'm sorry." Sadness is a hard emotion to control because it overwhelms a person and fairy.

" No don't be, Love is really hard to control too, I hear."

" It can be, so did my parents send you here? "

" Yes and No, they were asking if I was interested in you, but my parents already had arranged for me to come here once they heard."

" Are you interested in me? I- I mean".

" Yeah your pretty but all fairies are suppose to look attractive I just have heard some of the stuff you do to your suitors too."

" Oh." He had a huge smirk on his face after I asked that question. I should've kept my big mouth shut.

" Time for dinner you too love birds!"

Derek started laughing while I probably look mortified, but then his laughter became contagious and I joined in too.
