Cindy Ella Woods didn't expect anything to happen when she agreed to go to the spring masquerade ball. That is, until she drops her bracelet after dancing with a masked man who happened to be Peyton Charming. Peyton Charming certainly didn't expect to dance with a beautiful stranger with only a bracelet to give a hint to her identity when she runs away from him. Did I forget to mention that Peyton just happens to be an international pop star taking a break from music so he can be a normal teenager for senior year? Did I also forget to mention that Cindy's step-sisters and Peyton’s ex will do anything to get a chance with the notorious man that she danced with? After that night, Cindy finds her world turned upside down. It seems that Peyton is obsessed with finding his ‘Cinderella’, even after a couple failed attempts.

There was a boy that likes a girl. He always took notice of her even when she wasn't aware of his presence. With his nerdy appearance and his black-rimmed eyeglasses, he thought it was improbable that he could have a chance with her. He was just a nobody. Always afraid of taking chances, fearing of stumbling in the midst of his words, and his confidence shrinking. Even the thought of her, he has the butterflies growing in his stomach. With just one look at her and he was already in trouble. All he needed would just be that little push to overcome his shyness and taking a step forward. -- #1 on #highschoollove #2 on #loveatfirstsight #122 on #firstlove #14 in #shortstory Thank you!
