Chapter 1: Sleeping Beauty

Morgan had tried to stay up and wait for Robert to come home last night but she had just been too tired from her and Giselle's shopping yesterday.

She had had so much fun with Giselle and was heartbroken that she was going back to Andalasia to be with that weird guy who sang in their apartment. Morgan had immediately taken to Giselle and wanted to spend as much time as she could with her. Giselle always listened to what she had to say and told the best bed time stories. There was just something about her; she didn't try to be her buddy and she didn't try to be her mother, which made her feel even more like one. When Giselle had come back to ask for her help Morgan had been thrilled and hoped with all of her heart that Giselle would stay this time. Her connection with Giselle was so strong, much more than she had ever felt with Nancy and Morgan was going to miss her so much.

Light poured through Morgan's window causing her eyes to slowly blink open. It was still rather early especially for a Saturday but she realized that she had fallen asleep and hadn't seen her dad yet, so she hopped out of bed and rushed down the hall to ask him how the ball was. When she got to the living room though she was stopped dead in her tracks by what she saw there.

"GISELLE!" Morgan screamed as she ran to the couch to the sleeping woman. Giselle bolted awake, thinking something terrible was happening.

"Morgan, what is it?!" Giselle said frantically rubbing her eyes to wake herself up.



"You're here!" Morgan lunged herself at Giselle and hugged her tightly gripping Giselle's (or actually Robert's) pajamas. Giselle wrapped her arms around Morgan and gently rested her head on Morgan's.

Robert was in a deep sleep when he heard Morgan's scream and thinking that something was terribly wrong, rushed to the living room. When he got there he saw the heart-warming scene before him; Giselle was in his huge pajamas with her beautiful, newly cut, strawberry blonde hair falling gracefully on her shoulders, but the thing that really got him was what she was doing. She was holding his daughter tightly in her lap and gently combing her slender fingers through Morgan's hair and rocking her back and forth. Nancy had never done anything like this with Morgan, not that Morgan would let her. Giselle had somehow found her way into both of their hearts when no one else had managed to.

At that moment Giselle looked up at Robert and smiled brightly.

"Good morning, Robert," she said in her melodic voice.

He smiled back at her and all the images from last night came back to him, how she felt in his arms as they danced, the terrible thought that she might never wake up, and the feeling of true love's kiss. He had only known her about two days and yet he had shared more with her than he had with Nancy in five years. Giselle was like no one he had ever met, even though at first he thought she was just another New York City crazy. In such a short time she had not only changed his mind, but also his heart with her kindness and innocence.

Robert had never felt this way about anyone, not even Morgan's mother. When she had left he had built up the walls around his heart and he told himself that true love didn't exist. Then Giselle showed up and flipped his entire world upside down. Sure, she was physically beautiful, so were Morgan's mother and Nancy (though Giselle was far more attractive than either of them in his opinion). Giselle was beautiful in every other sense of the word as well.

He was shaken out of his thoughts by someone tugging on his hand. Robert looked down to see Morgan looking up at him expectantly.

"I'm sorry, sweetie. Did you say something?" Morgan rolled her eyes and smiled at him anyway.

"I said, 'is Giselle going to stay with us?'" Morgan asked hopefully. Robert picked her up and held her on his hip and looked over to Giselle who had tucked her long legs underneath of her and was currently twisting her hair nervously.

"She is more than welcome to stay with us, but that's entirely up to her." Robert said gazing into Giselle's wide, blue eyes. He wanted her to stay with him so much, but was it really 

fair for him to keep her here in a place so unfamiliar to her? She was so innocent and he was afraid what would happen to her in this world. People could be so cruel in New York and he wanted to protect her from all of that, but he was also afraid he wouldn't be able to. He knew he was being selfish but he couldn't help what he was feeling for her and he didn't want to.

"I would love to stay" Giselle smiled at Robert lovingly. Giselle wanted to stay more than anything. Of course, she would miss Pip and her other animal friends but she had finally found true love and she wasn't going to pass that up for anything. There was so much about this world she didn't understand, but instead of being scared she was excited about all the things she would learn and experience here.

It was almost as if before she came here she didn't really exist. All she had wanted in life was a prince to come and get married. Now, she was beginning to realize that the best part of true love wasn't about just getting married. It was all of the moments and experiences in between. Every second she was with Robert she felt so alive and enjoyed just being with him and Morgan.

Morgan was watching the grown-ups' interaction with excitement and said happily, "She can have my room!"
