A Gay Cinderella Story
When Matthias's father is accused of stealing from the family he works for, he gets fired along with his wife, the head housekeeper. Matthias, who is only ten, is desperately in love with the youngest daughter of family, Eileen, who is just nine herself. However, the families' paths have separated.
Fourteen years later, Jordan, an up-and-coming wizard finds Matthias drunk in a bar. Matthias tells him his story, and also his plan to propose to the Eileen. It is obvious it won't work. However, Jordan decides to help him out and hires him as a servant, in the meantime teaching him how to look and act like a member of the upper crust. With a loan plan to pay back the dowry Jordan is supplying, the stage is set for the proposal.
Warning, gay subtext will most likely abound.
I'm going to start a filter. If you'd like to beta this story and please to God critique it (nicely, please, I'm of delicate disposition) then comment! I'll be updating with 1000 word minimum writing posts for as long as I can keep it up as well as factoids on characters and setting elements. I'm trying to make it a little more interesting than it sounds, too. PS, some of you don't get a choice. :p
