Chapter One

Cassie didn’t mean to steal Bianca’s glasses.

It happened at a sleepover party at Jasmine’s house.  Cassie didn’t know Jasmine well, but she’d invited all the girls in their class, and Cassie’s mother had insisted she go, because It’s important to make friends.

Cassie had friends.  They were just all the way across town, in a different elementary school.  Her best friend, Daisy, used to live next door.  Now she was a fifteen-minute drive away.

Still, Cassie thought, waiting impatiently for her turn in the bathroom, so she could brush her teeth, it could be worse.

She could have moved to a different town, after all.  Her parents had just wanted to move to a bigger house because of the new baby.

The bathroom door opened, and a girl with pasty skin and wet hair stepped out, now wearing teddy bear pajamas.  She had been showering for half an hour, even though she didn’t live here and could have showered at home before coming.  Cassie thought her name was Bianca.

Your turn, Bianca said, scratching her ear uncomfortably as she passed.

Cassie made a face as she ducked into the bathroom.  The whole room was filled with steam, and her glasses had fogged up.  Annoyed, she took them off, set them on the counter, and felt around for a towel.  Her hands reached one, so she pulled it off the rack and grabbed her glasses to clean the lenses.

As she put them on her face, she noticed that they felt odd.  She was about to pull them off to check them.  Then she yelped and screamed.

There, sitting on the bathroom faucet, was a fairy.

A bright red fairy, red all over, with crimson clothes and layered pink hair and wings that resembled strawberries.  The outfit looked like someone had taken a zillion ruffles and tried to fit them all onto one person.

H-hello? Cassie asked hesitantly.

The fairy’s wings flapped, and she stared at Cassie as if she was expecting something.

Am I just imagining this? Cassie thought wildly.  Does Jasmine have fairy statues in her bathroom?

The fairy lifted up into the air and floated right in front of Cassie’s eyes.

Cassie scrambled backwards.  The fairy kept on coming.  Then it whooshed right through her head and towards the wall behind her.  Cassie turned to see a bright red door much too big for a fairy appear.  Without opening it or touching it, the fairy disappeared right through it.

Cassie’s mouth opened.  All she could let out was a tiny squeak.

Are you okay in there? a teenage girl asked, poking her head in.  Apparently Cassie had forgotten to lock the bathroom door.

I — I’m fine, Cassie stammered.

What was she supposed to say?  I think I just saw a fairy?  No one would believe her.  She wouldn’t have believed it if anyone else told her.

Well, except for Daisy.  Maybe Daisy.

Okay, well, hurry it up, the teenage girl said.  My little sis and her friends aren’t the only ones who need the bathroom.

I will, Cassie said, grabbing her toothbrush.

Apparently satisfied, the teenage girl pulled her head back out and shut the door.  Cassie looked around to find the toothpaste.

Her glasses were on the counter.

Cassie stared at them for a moment.  Then she felt the glasses on her face.  Then she looked at the glasses on the counter.  Slowly, she reached
