He drew near and with eyes closed, he kissed her soft pink lips...
"So is this love?" His tender touch on her was more than enough to answer the question, which she never thought she would be asking over and over again throughout the night. They sang and they dance, gazing into each other's eyes as if they were continually beholding the beautiful charming starlights of heaven...It was as if they were mirrors of their hearts for each other to know.
He caressed her temples and she naturally reciprocated his kiss...With curtains drawn, no one else was in sight to end their moment together. Their hearts were racing but now everything settled in undeniable calmness and intimacy...This was the least she could expect to happen, yet it felt like a once upon a dream walking out into reality from a long, long time ago...If someone was to tell her at this second that it was all a dream, Cinderella would not mind at all because it felt too good to be real till her dazed mind was wondering whether to believe it...Still, the feel of his hands which were holding gently hers each passing second granted her protective comfort and assurance...
He did not want this closeness with her to end,...but to last forever...Love was the last thing he had ever known in his life, not until the moment his unsuspecting eyes fell upon her...She was the only lady who stood out from the crowd, and reaching out to his heart...From a distance, when he was racing towards where she stood, he felt a quiet voice kept uttering to his heart..."She is the one...I have to reach her...She is meant to be..."
The clock struck midnight and the blaring chime resounded all throughout the palace...
Cinderella opened her eyes awake and gasped, pulling herself back from his arms...
