"You're Prince Charming?" I asked the boy in front of me.
He smirked, showing off his perfect white teeth. "You look surprised."
I blinked twice. "I am."
Before he could respond, Lucas yelled at us to face the cameras. I couldn't believe what was happening. I had told myself not to get my hopes up on Jason being Ace but as I looked at the blue-eyed boy in front of me, I realised that I had actually gotten my hopes up and now, I was disappointed.
"Jet! May! Snap out of it! Show me love and affection!" Lucas yelled.
I awkwardly turned my back to him as he slipped his arm around my waist. I felt my back touch his c
"Move it!" Someone bumped into me, snapping me out of my daze.I turned and noticed immediately who it was. Maia.I rolled my eyes, deciding to let it go."Why does she hate you?" Jet asked me.I was a bit surprised to hear his voice. For a second, I had forgotten that he was with me."Because I'm Sapphire and she isn't. I feel sorry for the little thing. She can't help but waste her time on hating me when I couldn't care less about what she thinks of me." I shrugged.He laughed. Again, I was surprised. His smile was...nice. And he didn't look hideous when he laughed either. I sighed, remembering June's earlier words. Maybe
The Wrong CinderellaChapter 2"I'm still here you know," said the boy beside my so-called Prince Charming.I looked at him and smiled. He was cute but it was obvious who got the most female attention between the two. I stretched out my hand to him. "Hi, I'm Sapphire."His hair looked black in the dim light, a contrast to his companion's blonde curls. "I'm Archer and by the way, I don't think my friend over here will be telling you his name any time soon."I glanced back at theblue-eyedboy. "Oh really?"He ju
It was Saturday morning, the day after Jason asked me out and I was feeling on top of the world. The previous day had been amazing: Jason stayed over and hung out with June and I the entire afternoon. After June lectured Jason on how to handle me and my mood swings (I don't know what she was talking about), I devoured my donuts and named my teddy bear Key, after Sapphire's stylist and not after some Korean guy June is also obsessed with.I had barely gotten any sleep but somehow, I was full of energy."Why are you so happy?" June asked as she shoved a camera into my face.I ignored her (and her camera) and grabbed a bottle of milk from the fridge. I was adding the milk to my cereal when my phone buzzed. I picked it up, ignoring June's whines and smiled at the text.
Sometimes it's difficult to imagine what being in love is like. As a fan girl, I had probably fantasized about my dream guy hundreds of times and yet, I hadn't been able to recognise him when I first met him. It wasn't until he planned something with my best friend that I realised that the cute-but-sexy, sensitive-but-strong, shy-but-confident guy I had read about was standing right in front of me. And he was better than I had ever imagined."Can I have some?" Jason asked, pointing at the ice cream cone in my hand.I shook my head and resumed eating the chocoberry flavoured goodness. Despite the fact that Autumn had finally settled in with its chilly wind, I suggested that we get ice cream.Jason was more than happy to oblige. So there we were, wrapped up in sweaters and in my case, a
As Jonathan, Jeane, Rachel and Kayden glammed me up for the first scenes that we would be shooting, I went through my lines one more time with June."Why are we doing this again?" June asked for the hundredth time.I sighed. "To make sure I remember everything! I don't want to forget."She rolled her eyes. "But we already went through it a thousand times! Even I know your lines by now and I have the worst memory in the history of humankind."Jonathan chuckled as he braided a portion of my hair. Jeane, who normally didn't say much, smiled as well, as she handed Jonathan an elastic band.Rachel and Kayden, my makeup geniuses, were sitting on the couch, arguing which colour lipstick wou

"I think I lost him." I admitted, tears streaming down my cheeks.June sighed and enveloped me in a hug. "Don't cry. You haven't lost him May, you guys have been dating for less than a week and he really likes you. That's why he's hurt but he'll forgive you."I sobbed louder. "And how do you know? I was so stupid! I lied to his face and I disregarded him like a piece of trash. I would understand if he broke up with me because I'm such a terrible person."June sighed and just patted my back, letting me ruin her pyjamas with my snot and tears. It was the morning after my first real fight with Jason and after a restless night, I had rushed over to my best friend to cry all over her unicorn onesie.I don't know how long I cried but when t
My heart stopped."June, what the hell happened?" I asked, refusing to let the panic take over me.She scrubbed her tears away and looked up at me in fear. "I didn't know that he was allergic to peanuts!"I felt my heart skip a beat. "So you poisoned him? Is he going to be fine?""Well not fine, exactly. And I didn't poison him. All I did was feed him some of your favourite chocolate ice cream and you know how there's nuts in there right? So I gave it to him and he ate but then halfway, he asked if there were nuts and I said yes then he swore then he checked if he had medicine with him but he didn't. I didn't notice when his face turned red and his throat started to swell up. I swear I was too busy enjoying the ice cream. When I final
