(Before Flynn and Rapunzel's wedding)
It seemed like a normal day in the Corona palace, Eugene and Rapunzel laughing in the garden, the king and queen talking in the lounge, maids cleaning, cooks cooking, and the busy town, restless as always. It seemed like any other day.
"Flynn!" Rapunzel yelled through the flowers.
"Yes dear?" He made fun of a woman's voice.
She laughed, "come look at this flower!"
He headed his way over to her slowly and looked at the golden flower she had her eye on.
"Isn't is beautiful?" She hinted.
The flower Flynn saw was golden, with small white details. Rapunzel was right, it was beautiful.
"I think I'll put it in my bedroom." She added, Flyyn looked dazed, "Flynn!" She snapped.
"What? Huh?" He looked around, "oh sorry..."
They both laughed and held hands. They heard running come up behind them.
"Your highness, there is someone in the ballroom waiting for you." One of the maids panted. They both stared at her,
"It's urgent..." She caught her breath.
The couple looked at each other for a moment and Rapunzel asked politely,
"Can Flynn come with me?"
The maid looked disappointed, "well, not exactly..."
There were no other questions asked after that. They all rushed to the entrance of the ballroom. Rapunzel looked at Flynn and sighed,
"You should stay here.."
He nodded and let her go inside.
When she went inside the ballroom, what he saw surprised her. The king and queen were there, along with another man, woman, and boy looking about her age. They all looked royal. Rapunzel's mother looked sad but tried to act as happy as possible.
"Mother? Father? What is all of this?" Repunzel asked, confused.
Her mother slowly walked next to her daughter and held her arm gently, "this, is king and queen Solviér from the kingdom Dalencia."
The queen smiled at Rapunzel, "Hello Rapunzel, it is an honer to meet you finally."
Rapunzel, still confused, muttered, "the honer is all mine..."
The younger boy stepped forward and kissed Rapunzel's hand, "pleased to meet you Rapunzel, my name is Derick and I must say, you look lovely this evening."
Flynn started to get impatient and pressed his ear against the door.
"I'm sorry to be rude but," she stopped, "why exactly are you here?"
Rapunzel's mothers eyes shot open, "may I speak with you alone please? Excuse me for a moment everyone." Rapunzel and her mother went to the corner of the room. The queen took a deep breath,
"I will explain everything later but just for now can you please just act like you understand what everyone Is saying?"
Rapunzel nodded and they resumed talking with the other family.
The kings were busy babbling about how many bears they have killed while the other queen and prince waited patiently.
"Dear? If your going to talk about that must you please do it in another room?" The queen of Corona pleaded.
The two kings thought for a moment before walking off into the other room.
"I guess since our husbands are off talking about nonsense shall we go on and have a cup of tea your highness? We could have our children get to know each other a bit more." Derricks' mother suggested.
She agreed and left the two royals alone in the ballroom.
In the back of her mind she knew that was going on was wrong. Derick held out his arm for her to link it and offered, "shall we walk around your palace, Miss. Rapunzel?"
"Oh! Of course..."
Flynn, outraged, slammed open the doors and looked around. The two royals were gone.
"What is happening here?!" He shouted.
The whole Solviér family had beautiful dirty blonde hair. Their eyes were a very dark shade of blue, their smiles were overwhelmingly gorgeous.
While Derick and Rapunzel strolled around the Corona palace, they talked about how they both loved art and the way colors looked on a canvas compared to reality. She felt like she had found her first true best friend.
Flynn could not find the two anywhere. He looked In every place he knew of. His emotions were mixed. He didn't know what to think anymore.
"I think Derick will be a wonderful suitor for your Rapunzel. They look like they are getting along just fine now." Flynn heard, coming from the tea room, "yes..." The queen replied awkwardly, "I think so too..."
Flynn was so shocked...he froze in his place. Rapunzel is getting married to someone else...
After talking and walking for a long while, Rapunzel un-linked arms with Derick and said that she would see him soon. He agreed and let her go. Rapunzel ran through the place, hoping to find Flynn somewhere. There, she spotted him.
"I'm back! I just met this very talented man who likes art-"
"Do you know why they are here Rapunzel?" Flynn interrupted.
"Not exactly, why?"
He took a few steps towards her then looked her in the eyes,
"He is a suitor from another kingdom... You two are getting married."
Rapunzel's eyes shot wide open and gasped. She didn't say anything after that.
"I had just now remembered that I am a commoner, so they say, and commoners can't marry royalty!" He angrily stormed off.
Rapunzel started to softly cry in the middle of the hallway. Derick found her standing there are ran towards her.
"Rapunzel! What's wrong? Can I help?!" He worried, Rapunzel turned around to face him,
"I can't do this right now Derick. Your a wonderful person but just... Not now.."
That sent Derick a smile on his face. Rapunzel stopped crying and walked into her room, locking the door behind her.
After about three hours, there was a knock on her door.
"Rapunzel, please come out dear." It was her mother at the door. Rapunzel, furious with her mother, shouted,
"No!"
"The Solviér family is waiting for you in the dining room." She said, almost sounding like it was a question.
Rapunzel got up and slammed the door open.
"What's wrong with you mother?" Rapunzel dared.
"Excuse me young lady, you have no right to talk in that tone with me!"
"Oh please mother, I do.
You know I love Flynn, why would you bring that family here to make Derick and I get married?!"
The queen took a long sigh,
"It is against the royal family rules for a commoner to marry someone royal, not to mention but also because you are a girl."
Rapunzel paused for a moment, "what does that have to do with anything?!"
"It means, that since you are a female, you cannot carry our royal name to your children, he also does not have a kingdom that needs to be ruled someday..."
Rapunzel sort of understood what her mother was trying to say. She sighed and walked with her mother slowly, to the dining room. A feast was cooked for the two families. The kings and queens sat together and the two children sat together.
Flynn, on the other hand, was in the royal guest room. He thought about what he was going to do.
"Should I tell her that this relationship we have is over? No, that would just make it worse... Kidnap the prince? No, that would get me back in jail." He thought of things to do in his mind for a good long while.
Derick tried to start a conversation with Rapunzel many times. She wouldn't continue it most of the time.
"So Rapunzel," the other queen suggested, "how has your time as a princess been so far?"
Rapunzel's ears perked up at the question, "what should I say?! Yes it's been great! No, now that you're here." She thought.
"Um...it's been great." She finally replied.
It was awkward at the table for a while. Rapunzel whispered,
"I'm finished."
She then stood up, curtsy'd to everyone and left the room. She began walking down the long hallway towards her bedroom. There were footsteps running up behind her.
"Rapunzel, wait!" Derick yelled.
"Hello Derick." She fake smiled.
"Okay I know something's up..."
"What are you talking about?" She pretended like nothing was wrong.
"You've been acting funny ever since this afternoon."
Rapunzel didn't know what to say. After a few minutes Rapunzel finally knew what to say,
"Well, if there was something wrong anyway I would have the right to keep it to myself would I?"
Derick took a step back, "if that's what you want, fine, leave it that way. Goodnight princess Rapunzel."
She started walking off,
"I'll be seeing you tomorrow princess." She heard from behind her. Rapunzel stormed off into her room.
It was late, and Flynn, being the guy he was, went to see if Rapunzel was okay. He sneaked towards her bedchamber then slowly opened the door. Rapunzel was lying, face first, on her bed. He walked towards her and rubbed her shoulder to tell her that he was there.
"It's okay, we'll figure something out..." He tried comforting her.
"How?!" She sat up, "we can't do anything!"
"We can try..."
She sat up, "what should we do?"
The both thought for a minute,
"Try as best you can to tell Derick there is someone else you want to be with."
She smiled.
