after performing a dance routine that had completely won her teachers over at the semi-annual concert of her school, elle had went out with some of her classmates for drinks at the four seasons in upper manhattan. surely, it didn’t take much to get her feeling slightly tipsy but it was the comfortable kind where you feel light and like the world was full of endless possibilities. so, after seeing diego’s name on her phone screen, she’d decided to give that surprise another attempt, showing up at his door unannounced. once he opened the door, she grinned, tucking some hair behind her ear. ‘’surprise! figured i’d give cinderella a fun twist and show up at the strike of midnight instead.’’ // @gasolinehearts
