Hey there lads and lassies! This is the first time that I have felt well enough to write again so this is a story about a little girl who befriends a fairy but neither of her parents believe her. Then she is accidentally shrunk and the fairy introduces her to a clan of leprechauns. So yeah, since I do believe we are allowed to write our own stories and poems on here, please let me know what you think about it. Oh by the way, this is just a warning, this story contains an evil witch involved with it so if that is a problem, you might want to stop reading right now. I'm just sort of making it up as I go along btw.
Chapter One; Do You Believe In Fairies?
It was Lilly's birthday today. She was nine years old. She wanted a lot of things for her birthday, but more than anything she wanted her very own pony. For she took riding lessons every Wednesday afternoon. Her mother picked her up from school and took her to the riding arena. Lilly had bleached blonde hair and bright blue eyes. She was also very smart for her age. All of her friends knew that she was the smartest kid in school. She always got straight A's, and she almost never got in trouble. The only thing about Lilly that made her unusual is that she still had an imaginary friend and believed in fairies and leprechauns. A lot of the other students teased her for it and it always made her very upset.
"Sorry Lilly, fairies aren't real." another boy with freckles and red rimmed glasses told her on the playground at recess time but Lilly just simply stamped her foot.
"Yes they are. They are too real!" she exclaimed before she burst into tears and ran inside just as the bell rang. Lilly didn't say anything to anyone for the rest of the day. She just simply sat her desk and heaved a deep and heavy sad sigh while lying her head down upon her folded arms. "I saw one." she muttered under her breath. "I saw one and I know they are real!" she growled to herself. For about a week or so ago Lilly was kneeling down by her bedside saying her prayers when all of a sudden she saw a flashing, golden, shimmering light out of the corner of her eyes. Or at least, that's what she thought that she had spotted as she gasped and quickly ran over there to look. However, when she got there all she saw was the neighbor's old hound dog a crossed the street. She leaned her head up against the wall and breathed a deep and heavy sad sigh.

That afternoon she found her mother along with her baby brother inside of the kitchen. "Alright now Alex, open up." her mother encouraged but the baby just simply stared at her and pushed away the spoonful of applesauce that she was offering away with his hand and started to cry. "Oh dear, not again." she said just as Lilly shut the door tightly behind her.
"I'm home." she said rather loudly before her mother stopped to turn and look at her and then smiled warmly at her.
"Oh hello darling. How was school?" she asked her.
"Terrible." Lilly began. "I don't want to talk about it." she told her while she hurried out of the kitchen as her mother stood up.
"Why, what happened?" she questioned her daughter while she slowly began to follow her down the hallway and watched her climb up the stairs two at a time. "Do you have any homework?" she asked but instead of answering her Lilly just simply slammed her bedroom door behind her and folded her arms angrily while sliding her back down upon it and finally sitting down upon the ground.
That night, Lilly finally decided to tell her mother what had been bothering her. "Hey my little flower, did you say your prayers yet?" her mother questioned her while she climbed underneath her covers and her mother pulled them overtop of her. Lilly simply just nodded before brushing some strands of hair out of her face and blinking up at her mother.
"Mom, can I ask you a question?" she asked her.
"Sure you can sweetheart." her mother began before sitting down at the foot of her bed. "What's on your mind?"
"Are fairies real? Because some boy at my school told me that they weren't." she said. "And that really hurt my feelings because I'm pretty sure that I saw one once." she told her.
"Oh I see. Was this the same boy that told you that God was make believe as well?" her mother wondered as Lilly nodded with a sniff while a tear trickled down her cheek. She quickly wiped her nose with the back of her hand as her mother smiled down upon her. "You know Lilly, just because that boy is older than you doesn't mean that he knows everything. Just because we can't see something, it doesn't mean that it isn't there." she told her.
"So that means that fairies at really real then right??" Lilly inquired.
"As long as you continue to keep them in your dreams, they will be." her mother reassured her soothingly before she bent over and kissed her forehead and quietly turned off the light and left the room. Lilly didn't feel any better than she had before but she rolled over onto her side and tried her absolute best to go to sleep.
.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
Lilly's mother slowly came down the stairs. "Jack, I'm really concerned about Lilly." she began to her husband as a man with short black hair walked over to her to meet her.
"Why, what's wrong with her?" he wondered.
"She's nine years old now and she still believes in fairies. I didn't have the heart to tell her that they aren't real." she explained.
"Oh don't worry Katherine, sooner or later she'll grow out of it. After all, she finally stopped believing in Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny." he told her.
"But this is different Jack, she swears that she actually saw a fairy out her bedroom window. Now I'm really concerned about this. Lilly is a very smart girl and although we both know that she has a wonderful imagination, it isn't like her to make up stories like that." she told him with a shake of her head.
"Don't worry honey," he began before he quickly pecked her on the lips. "if it starts becoming too much of a problem, we'll take her to a psychologist." he told her unaware that their daughter had been secretly listening to their whole entire conversation while she squatted down by the railing and gazed down at them through the bars. Luckily for her they didn't notice her and walked away in separate directions before Lilly hurried back into her bedroom and leapt back inside her bed throwing the covers back over her. She rolled back over onto her side and trying not to think of the fact that both of her parents thought she was crazy, she eventually drifted back off to sleep.
So, that's the end of the first chapter. What did you think? Please let me know.
