A little Cinderella moment Chapter 98
Chase P.O.V Is it me or does the Christmas sermon feel longer every year? I feel I have been sitting in this pew for hours, but I am so glad it’s over and we can go home I’m starving. Getting back in the car heading home, I check the time on my new Rolex watch Dad got me for a present and see it’s one in the afternoon. I wonder what Savannah and her dad are doing for Christmas. I want to text her to see how her day is, but I don’t want to disturb this day with her and her dad. We pull into the driveway to see another car parked outside. I don’t recognize it but surely it couldn’t be. Could it? When getting out of the car my mind is going crazy in thought. Jen walks round to me and meets me at the trunk of the car, the both of us looking at the car in front of us. “Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” she asks me, I look at her and shrug my shoulders just as the car doors open. A familiar set of legs step out of the car and I hold my breath. I know them legs anywhere, I have fa

“Consider me surprised Jen, I never would have suspected you and your mother to make such a memorable meal such as this,” Dad compliments Jen. “Thank you, Dad I asked Mom after Thanksgiving if I could help her as when I have a family of my own in the future I would love to be able to make a dinner like this for my husband and children and sit around the table as we are now with great company having the best day we could ever ask for.” I almost choke on my drink with what she has just admitted. Husband and kids? What? She’s not eighteen yet and she’s already talking about marriage and family? I know I can’t say anything as it wasn’t that long ago, I was thinking the same thing with Savannah by my side. But she’s my sister, my twin sister at that. No guy would ever be good enough for her. Well, in my eyes at least, Dad well that’s another story. “I hope that’s in the far distant future princess. Your mother and I would want both you and Chase to have a college experience before you

The rest of the evening went too quickly for my liking. We all had some fun and games playing Charades, Pictionary, Tapple, Uno, and this new one called Do You Really Know Your Family? Them games were a great laugh especially Dad trying to draw Cookie Monster. Jen was rolling over the floor in laughter on the brink of tears, it was that hilarious. I want to try and have a little alone time with Savannah tonight before her and her father leaves for the evening. So, I do what any desperate guy would do. Steal it. I take hold of Savannah’s hand and lead her outside to my backyard and take a seat on one of the loungers by the pool. “Have you enjoyed your Christmas?” Savannah asks me. I take hold of her hands and look at her, “I’ve had the best Christmas I could have ever asked for sweetheart. That’s because you have spent the day with me and my family. You being here is the best present my mom could have ever given me.” I lean forward and place a soft, gentle kiss on her lips, and

Savannah P.O.V Today is the day of this mystery date with Chase tonight. I wonder what it could be? He said to dress warm and comfortable so it can’t be at a fancy restaurant. Maybe it could be an outside movie theatre? Well whatever Chase has planned if it’s anything like our first date a couple of days ago then, I can’t wait. After getting home last night from the Lockwood’s house I asked Dad if he didn’t mind me going on a late-night date with Chase and what he told me I couldn’t believe it I had to get him to repeat what he said. “Baby girl, I already know about the date. Chase told me what he had planned and asked if it was all right and I gave him my full support. It’s nice that he asked me, he’s a good man, I want you to be happy as long as you are happy then I am happy.” What has Chase and my dad been talking about when I’m not around? Well, whatever it is as long as my dad is not wanting to kill Chase, I’ll take it. Throughout the day I have been messaging Jen to see if

Parking up in a car park we climb out of the car, Chase walks around to the trunk and pulls out some blankets, a box of battery-powered candles, and a wicker picnic basket. We started walking down the pathway to where we are going. It is a short walk before Chase announces that we’re here. We laid down two of the blankets and Chase set up the candles before sitting down and opening the basket to pull out what was inside. Inside the basket, there were a mixture of sandwiches, a cheese platter, a mixture of fruit, a salad bowl, some fried chicken, and some freshly baked brownies. For drinks, we have different canned sodas, a couple of glasses, and a bottle of sparkling cider. Chase certainly went all out for this picnic, and the view is breathtaking. We sit on the blankets enjoying the food and the surrounding area. My eyes are looking everywhere as I have never seen anything like this from being from a small town in North Carolina to seeing the city life of California, while Chase sit

Walking into the house I brace myself for my father’s wrath. I head on into the lounge to see my father sitting on the couch with what looks like a coffee in his hand and a very pissed off look on his face. “Good morning Savannah,” Dad says so coldly. “Morning Dad, did you stay up all night waiting for me?” “In some form of way yes, I have young lady. Care to explain yourself?” What has gotten into him? Why is he so pissed at me for falling asleep in a car and staying outside the house in said car? “I fell asleep in the car on our way back from Hollywood. It’s as simple as that, I didn’t technically break my word Dad I did come home. But why I woke up still in Chase’s car I don’t know you’ll have to ask him about that. What I don’t know is why you’re getting on my case when you’re sat there still in the same clothes as yesterday too. Care to explain yourself, Dad?” Dad stands up in a fury of rage dropping his cup on the floor and it shatters around his feet and points a finge

Chase P.O.V After I arrived home, I went upstairs to change into my running gear and go for a quick run. Leaving my phone at home I just take my iPod with my running playlist on and headphones and go out for my mile maybe two-mile run. On my run, I think about Savannah and wish I had brought my phone with me to text her to see how it went with her father. I ran two and a half miles before I get back home to see Mr. Blakemore’s car outside my house. Walking into the house I see my mom and dad standing in the hallway with Mr. Blakemoore. Is Savannah here too? When they notice me my dad signals for me to go and have a shower and meet them in his office. I wonder what’s going on. I have the quickest shower of my life; I’m dried and dressed and headed towards my dad's office in under ten minutes. I knock on the door and wait to be greeted but my mom opens the door and invites me inside before shutting the door behind me. I walk in and take a seat in the available chair in front of Dad’

Savannah P.O.V Sitting on a rock overlooking the water, I feel more at peace with myself and all things around me. I didn’t want to go to the beach near my house as that would be the first place Dad would look for me. I drove around for over half an hour when I noticed I was in Malibu of all places. I pulled up to a car park next to a secluded beach, walked down, and climbed onto a rock, and here is where I have stayed ever since. It has got to be close to lunch by now. I’m starving. The last thing I ate was some fried chicken at the picnic last night. Just as I’m about to stand up to go get something to eat two familiar figures are walking toward me. How did they find me? “Mind if we join you?” Jen says as they both climb up the rock and sit down on either side of me. “Talk to us, sweetheart. What made you run away and come this far? When you know you could have always come to us, either of us. So, why didn’t you?” “I couldn’t come to either of you about this because I know m

A little Cinderella moment Epilogue
Chase P.O.VFour years later Well, it’s been four amazing years in San Fransisco. Savannah and I graduated college last week. I got a degree in Business and in Finance, where Savannah got one in English Literature and in Music. Where I double majored in college Savannah had a major in English but a minor in music. We both graduated with high honors. The world is now our oyster. But before we can even think about anything to do with the world and how we wish to change it I am back at the office wanting to speak to Savannah’s father. It is now time we had that discussion I said I planned to have with him back when we were seniors in high school. Fuck that feels like forever ago. I told her father on the night of the Christmasqurade ball that one day I will come to him to ask for his daughter’s hand in marriage and today is that day. I have arranged for a meeting with Mr. Blakemore to take place in the company’s board room and I asked my dad to be present during this meeting. I plan fo

It has been a couple of weeks since prom and the big day is approaching quickly. Today we get our yearbooks and get them signed before graduation day that is this Saturday. It’s hard to believe this is our final week in high school. It feels like today is still my first day of school but it’s actually almost my last. Not paying attention to where I was going or who was around me with my yearbook in hand I collide into a big, solid mass of a person knocking my books, my yearbook, and some odd bits of paper all over the floor. Bending down to pick everything up, still not paying attention to who I bumped into, on instinct I do apologize to the person as I start picking up my things. I see the person I bumped into bend down and starts to help me with picking up my things and holds out my English book and my notes to hand back to me. I can’t believe I’ve done this again. “You may need these sweetheart,” Hang on a minute? Did I just? Looking up I see Chase smiling at me as he holds my stuf

We all climb out of the limo and the guys are all holding our arms and escorts us up into the building. Two doormen kindly open the door for us and welcome us to the Crystal Palace and to enjoy our evening. First stop for us as Chase and Lucas recommended is to get our pictures done first so then that way, we don’t look too red faced or sweaty. That is actually not a bad idea if you think about it. We get a bunch of pictures took, we had solo pictures, the six of us together, just the girls, just the guys, and with our dates. I can’t wait to see how the pictures come out because I will be getting a copy of every single one. Entering into the ballroom of the palace we can hear the DJ playing ‘Just Dance’ by Lady Gaga. We walked around couples and across the dancefloor to the only table that is free for us to claim. The girls and I put our purses on the table and hit the dance floor with how good the music is sounding. After a couple of songs, the guys joined us on the dance floor alre

After clipping my bow into place, I have one final look at myself in my bathroom mirror before I step out and show the girls. Walking to the door, putting my hand on the handle I close my eyes, take a deep breath, and open the bathroom door. On the other side of the door, I see Jen and Selena with their phones taking my picture and recording me as I walk out. Putting a huge smile on my face I walk out the bathroom giving the girls a twirl and a cute little princess curtsey I have seen Princess Catherine do before. The girls laugh and comment how incredible I look, and Jen commented on the bow. “How big did you want that thing? Fuck Sav that’s the biggest ass bow I have ever seen stuck on anybody’s ass.” We laugh at her comment as I walk over to my vanity. Sitting down on my stool I put in a pair of my mom’s diamond and pearl drop earrings and her snowflake necklace again. Wearing this necklace makes everything feel like it’s turned in a full circle. Finding out Chase was Wolf behind

Three weeks later Tonight is prom night. The night all the senior girls look forward to the most. Don’t ask me about the guys some look forward to it for other reasons than what it means. The girls and I are getting ready together. We all booked to get our hair and makeup done at a salon today for tonight. We are sat in the chairs getting pampered away, a treat from Selena’s Abuela, as she said no Nieta of hers will not go to prom without having a beauty day at the salon. We all chose to have a French manicure and pedicure, to keep it simple. We also showed our makeup artists pictures of our dresses so they could do our makeup to match our dresses. Jen’s hair shaped her face beautifully. She had a volumized high ponytail with some hair extensions that matched her hair color perfectly with elegant curls and some curls framing her face. To finish the look off she had this black jeweled crystal hair clip she slid into the top part of the ponytail. Jen’s makeup made her look much older t

Walking into the house I see Dad sat on the stairs with what looks like a photo album in his hand. I shut the door behind me and slowly approach him looking at the sad expression on his face as he stares at a photo in the book. When I got closer, he looked up at me with unshed tears in his eyes. When I asked him if everything was okay, he said that everything was fine and he was just living back in the past, and he showed me the page he was looking at in the photo album. It was Mom and Dad’s high school graduation. It was the picture of Mom with her diploma and then Dad with his diploma and under that was the picture of the two of them together. Dad told me the story about how him and Mom met in high school. Hearing what he said was almost a de ja vu. Mom bumped into Dad as she wasn’t watching where she was going, and Dad bent down to help Mom pick up her things and he said it was like love at first sight. We sat on the stairs for a few more minutes just talking and reliving the good

The school year is flying by. Finals are vastly approaching; concert rehearsals are in full swing and it’s almost time for prom season. Chase has been working hard at school and working harder with football. Right now, he has done all he can to impress the college scouts. We all have been working hard I’ve even seen Jen studying some pre law books and even reading about the LSATS. Selena went to some business seminars to see if that is truly the route she wants to go down after graduation. Lucas has been working just as hard if not harder than Chase with his school work and with football. Greg on the other hand has slacked off a little but he has already confirmed he has a secured place in college already. But which one? I don’t know. College acceptance letters should be coming in the post soon but how long after finals will they arrive? Hopefully not long as I believe they wait for finals and the final grades before sending out the letters. All this pressure can make or break some hi

Lunch in hand, Selena and I start walking to the bleachers when Greg and Lucas catch up to us, and the four of us walk together the rest of the way. Jen and Chase are already sat up in the bleachers as we arrived. Lucas helped Selena up with her food and Chase came down to help with mine and we went and joined Jen and enjoy our lunch together. We joked around and had a good time just as we should do at our age because with this being our senior year we only have a short time together like this before we go our separate ways for college. Speaking of college, we all talked about where we have applied for and where we hope to go. Lucas has had a couple of calls from college scouts and Chase said he has had the same but the one he is hoping to hear from he has not just yet. Jen said she is wanting to do a couple of years in one college and then go to Harvard to study law as that is where she feels more passionate, and she gets to be part of the family business in some way or another. Greg
