"Once upon a time, is how the story begins."

 "Oh, please. No need to be so mysterious."

 "Fine! Fine. Whatever you say."

 "Oh, my gosh, Teague! You're so dramatic."

 "You love me, though."

 "Unfortunately, yes." 

 "Hey!" 

 Teague glared at his girlfriend, Elizzabeth. She laughed and tousled his hair with her finger.

"So, continue your story."

"Okay, so as I was saying before I was very rudely interrupted," Elizzabeth giggled as Teague raised an eyebrow at her.

 "Once upon a time, there was a little dandelion. Carried along by the first laugh of a baby, it was guided along to a tree. Tiny creatures called fairies were there to greet the dandelion, which turned into another fairy. 

It was a boy, and he was so confused but yet knew what was going on. Six objects were offered to him, and he chose a hammer, and also chose his talent. He was welcomed by a group of fairies called Tinkerers, carpenters who were skilled in the fine arts of fixing and creating. 

One day, during a visit to the mainland, a fairy was kidnapped by a little human girl. The little girl turned out to be very kind and gentle, and just in need of a friend because her father neglected her. 

The fairy, Tinkerbell, very generic and unoriginal name, I must say, but she goes by Bell now, so anyways, Bell was rescued, but the little girl was in need of rescuing as well. Her father grew very angry at her for using the scientific journals he had given her to put fairy facts in. 

I know you know what happened next vividly. But it was at a little picnic, where we met. We started out as friends, but I must say, your dad knew from the beginning. I'm sure he wanted to stuff me in a jar. The young girl, Lizz, grew into a beautiful young woman, Elizzabeth. And—"

Teague was interrupted as Elizzabeth gently kissed the top of his head.

"I love you. I'm glad we met."

"Me too."
