Fifth Harmony One Shots

Love Story (Dinah/You)

Y/N's POV

I was sat in my room waiting for the ball to start. My mother and father were throwing a fancy masquerade ball at our home, so I had no choice but to attend. These balls and lavish parties are not my thing, but I cannot disobey my parents. My parents are also trying to find me a suitor, but I would like to choose who I want to be with. I heard a knock at my door, so I told the person to enter. One of the maids entered my room and stood by the door.

" Miss Y/LN, your parents have requested your presence. The guests will be arriving soon." She informed me and I nodded. She left the room, and I got up from my bed with a sigh. I looked into my mirror to see my reflection. I was wearing a large ball gown, and my hair was long and flowed down my back. I grabbed my mask from my dresser, and I left my room. I walked down the long staircase to wait with my parents for our guests.

" You look beautiful, Y/N." My father said and I smiled at him. My mother nodded in agreement, and I gave them both a side hug.

Once most guests arrived, my parents let me leave the front entrance, but I was expected to socialize while there were guests. I had taken a small break from socializing and stood in the corner watching people dance. I looked around at everyone until my eyes stopped on a beautiful girl walking through the crowd. She was wearing an all-white gown that flowed to the ground. She looked like an angel walking through the crowd of people. I couldn't see all of her face because of her mask, but she had caught my attention, and her beauty completely captured me. She looked up and saw me staring at her. She smiled at me and walked towards me so gracefully. She stopped in front of me and took my hand in hers to place a kiss on it. She pulled away slowly and bowed towards me. I curtsied to her and looked up into her eyes that were now staring into mine. I felt my breath catch in my throat at the sight of her beautiful brown eyes staring into mine. I felt myself getting lost in the beauty of her eyes.

" Would you like to dance?" She asked me and I nodded at her request. She took my hand and led me to the dance floor. She put her arm around my waist and pulled me closer to her, and I put my hand on her shoulder. We started dancing to the music that was played by the live band. She was a great dancer which was a nice change. I've danced with many who cannot dance.

We danced to many songs and then she pulled me towards the garden. We got to the garden, and I looked up at the night sky. The sky was full of many beautiful and bright stars. I looked back at the brown-eyed beauty and saw that she was already looking at me.

" Can I see what you look like beneath that mask?" I asked her and she smirked at me.

" If I remove the mask, it would ruin the mystery." She said to me and I sighed. I walked towards her to take off the mask, but she stopped me.

" I don't think I should take off my mask. I like that you don't know who I am. It adds to the mysteriousness."  She said to me and I sighed.

" I don't think it's fair that you know who I am and I can't know who you are." I said to her and she smiled at me and kissed my hand again. I heard my name being called in the distance. I turned around to see my father looking for me. I turned back around to talk to the brown-eyed beauty, but she was gone. I frowned and sighed to myself. I would have loved to know who she was. The thought of not seeing her again saddened me. I turned around to find my father and heard found him searching around the garden. I entered the party again and felt sad that I wasn't with the brown-eyed beauty.

For the next few nights, I didn't see her again. I felt myself craving to see her again, but I didn't think that it would happen. I know nothing about her. I was sitting in my room drawing the eyes that captured my eye at first sight. All of a sudden, I heard the sound of tapping against my balcony. I furrowed my eyebrows and slowly stepped outside onto my balcony. I looked around in the darkness of the garden and saw someone standing in the dark. I was frightened at first, but upon closer inspection, I knew that I recognized the mask the stranger had been wearing.
