A/N: Hi Readers! This would be my very first Fan Fiction I'm writing in this web. This story should be about 5-10 Chapters long but for sure I'll update regularly as fast as I could. In the movie, it didn't tell us how they got married so in this fanfic, it tells what problems they have to face before finally being able to walk through the altar. As you might already have guessed, this is set after the incident in the tower and before the two got married. As I had mentioned earlier, this is my very first fanfic so do forgive me if it doesn't live up to the original. Do review. Happy Reading!

Disclaimer: This is a FAN FICTION so none of the mentioned characters are mine. No copyrights infringement intended. Credits for the characters should be given to their respective owners but this FAN FICTION is MINE. xD

Chap 1: Blissful Days

It has been a year since my death. Well, my temporary death since Rapunzel did resurrect me back to life with her freakish healing power. Oh, don't tell her I said that, I wouldn't want a reunion with her oh-so-wonderful frying pan.

As I was saying, right after that incident at the tower with that old faggot of a witch, Gothel dissipated into ashes and Rapunzel had finally returned to her rightfully parents in the palace.

Well, I, Flynn Rider.. Scratch that. I, Eugene Fitzherbert, the warrior who had brought back the lost princess, was invited to stay in the palace. Can you imagine that? Me? Staying in a palace? Can you? Hmm.. No need to imagine, it's already happening. *Smolders*

The past year, it has been kind of great. Okay, extremely great. The majesties had accepted me as a very close friend of Rapunzel and so my sentence of being hanged had been removed but of course with three conditions. First, I must not repeat my old ways ever again and by that, it means that I should stop thieving. Secondly, I need to repent myself by being Rapunzel's guardian. Lastly, I must not hurt Rapunzel in any way. If I break any of these conditions, let's just say that I won't see more to life.

Life in the palace is wonderful. Scrumptious feast, expensive clothes, pretty serving maids, comfortable bed and not to forget, a beautiful attractive princess. I can get used to life in the palace.

"Eugene!" a soothing melodious voice sounded opposite of my door. "Eugene! Are you awake already?"

Ah! Rapunzel's melodious voice to wake me up, early in the morning. Yup, I'm already used to this place. "Yes, I'm awake! What is it?"

"I want to go down to the cities. Can you follow me?"

In an instant, I changed into the expensive clothes that the queen had presented to me and got out. "Can I say no?"

A dejected look flashed on her features. Pascal, who were on her shoulders stared at me and punched his fist (or is it his feet?) on the other.

Rolling my eyes, I took her arm and pulled her to walk. "I was just joking, silly. Anything, for the princess, right?"

She stopped short and pulled away from me. "It's ok if you don't want to follow me."

"Didn't you just heard me Goldie? I was joking. Of course, I want to follow you."

She just puffed up her cheeks but didn't make a move. "You know that I don't like it when you call me princess."

I held out my hand again. "Come now. We better get going before tea."

With that, she jumped towards me, grabbing my arms and hugging it as she lead me to the village.

Rapunzel was amazingly clingy to me. She wouldn't want to let go of me in the first few months after the incident at the tower. When I had tried to pry her off she just said that she didn't want to lose me again. Childish but cute.

She had calmed down now after a year but still when we need to part to sleep or when she need to attend to certain events, she would hug me tightly for a very long time before releasing me. I'm kind of glad for my temporary death sometimes. Though it was an excruciatingly painful and frightening experience, it's worth it since I was resurrected and Rapunzel realized her feelings that she has for me.

"Eugene! Come see this!" her excited voice rung in my ears. I love it when she calls my name. I love it when she gets so intrigued by new things everyday and would always chose me to show it to first. I gave her my usual smile and approached her, greeting me with her own smile. "Look at those kids. What are they doing?"

At the field, a group of children were laughing and screaming as they ran around clearly playing tag. "They are playing tag, of course."

"Tag?" she tilted her head towards me.

I nodded briefly. Knowing she had never experienced it before I took her hands and dragged her towards the children, making them pause for a moment when they realize it was the princess . "Good morning, cheerful little children. Do you mind if our dear little princess play along with you?"

Rapunzel was clearly excited. When they nodded their heads, she quickly thanked them with me proceeding to explain the rules of the game to her. Just as I was done, I turned to wait at the side but Rapunzel quickly grabbed me at the sleeves. "Where are you going?"

"Why, to wait at the side of course." I answered blatantly.

"Play along with me."

"Oh no. Don't involve me in this."

"Come on Eugene." Giving me a pleading look.

Pascal was staring at me as I sighed. "It's not going to work if I said no won't it?" He shook his head as I dragged myself back to the field. Instantly, she brightens up and all of us started running and screaming as we play.

I could say that we were having the time of our lives that day because after that, we never knew that it would be the last laughter we could have before a long time.
