in the midnight hour

i wish life was a stupid cliche fairytale

i came up to him and told him words that i've been dreaming of saying.

"be mine for just one day"

he looked at me a bit shocked, before smiling a bit. did this mean he liked me back? did this mean that i have a chance with him? my heart skipped a beat, a spark of hope enflaming it.

but his soft smile soon turned to a demonic one.

"did you really think that i'd agree? what do you think this is? some old fairy tale where the beautiful boy ends up with the ugly girl? wake up bitch, this is real life. we aren't in one of your poems were everything ends up with a cheesy happy ending. now get the fuck out of my eyesight."

my heart broke into a million pieces. i mean i get it, i'm not the prettiest out there, but no need to be so rude about it. tears started rolling down my cheeks, as he harshly pushed me from his way. i turned around to face his back and laughed bitterly.

"yeah, i suppose you're right."
