The Sprinkles

Part Two; Chapter 4:

One month. One month until the job assigning! She was so nervous. She wanted more than anything to have the job assigners see her passion for Dreaming. She has a special speech ready and everything ready. She can't wait, yet is so nervous she might through up.

Then the day came. Waterfall and his wife Lilypad,were there to watch their son, Leo, get his job. Do be honest, Pixie has always had a crush on Leo and can't wait to see if he will be her knew Dreamer partner.
