I landed the same way I did the first time. On my knees with a big "Oof!" But this time, there was a big pillow underneath me. I looked up to find my best friend in Disney, Melody looking down at me.
"Always the clutz." She smiled, then helped me up and we screamed, then hugged. I saw over Melody's shoulder, that she had taken my purple golf cart, to come pick me up. I looked at her, then she dropped the keys in my hand, and we hopped in the car.
"Hold on tight, Mel. Cus this heres the wildest ride in Fantasyland!" I said, then we took off towards the castle. I then noticed that Melody was dressed in a fancy ballgown.
"What's with the gown?" I asked her.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, but right now it's the Royal's Christmas Ball, at your house. It's really everyone, but the royals just host it."
"Okay, coolness." I smiled, then we discreetly parked the cart in its usual spot in the corner of the stable. We creeped up to the front door where Mel slipped inside, then got everyone's attention. Here's what I heard…
"Excuse me everyone! If I could have your attention please! AHEM!.....thank you…Anyways, I would like to give Aunt and Uncle dearests their Christmas Present." She smiled, then opened the door a little bit more, signaling for me to come in.
I jumped through the door and yelled, "SURPRISE!!!" I smiled hugely, heard everyone gasp, then ran up to the front of the ballroom where my "other" parents were standing. I hugged them both, and Phillip spun me around when he hugged me.
Then I got tapped on the shoulder three times, then spun around to the three good fairies smiling at me. I took Fauna's hand, then they led me up to my room to change my clothes.
"Well dear, I'm afraid that no one has been able to get into your room since you left, it's locked." Said Fauna. I then pulled the key to my room out from my shirt where it was hanging from a ribbon around my neck.
"This might help." I smiled, then unlocked the door to the room that I was so familiar with then ran over to the bed and flopped onto it.
"Come now dearie, this is NO time for sleeping. You have a ball to go to." Smiled Fauna, then she helped me up off the bed. As she was doing this, I noticed Merriweather fixing my wardrobe to fit me, since I have grown since the last time I was here.
I bounced over to the mirror and let the fairie's magic work on my clothes, and change my tee shirt and shorts into a gorgeous red dress (.# imagine this, but bright red with gold glitter instead of silver). Then the same gold shoes I wore to my first ball here. I watched as the golden glitter surrounded me and turned me into a real princess. In my red ballgown, golden shoes, curled hair up in an updo, and golden crown embedded with diamonds placed on my head, I felt ready to go back downstairs.
Even though I really don't like grand entrances, one was assured in my near future. I hurried down the hall and stairs, then met the top of the grand staircase when everyone turned around. I blushed, then descended the stairs to a big round of hugs from many people, including Wendy Darling and her brothers, Pooh Bear, and Boo, Sully, and Mike. I saw a head of long black head of hair, then ran over to Ting, Mulans daughter, and another one of my besites here.
"Ting!"
"Claire!"
"Dude, I missed you so freaking much! You, like don't even know!" Ting said. This girl cracks me up, okay, so even though she is all Disney, she talks like shes straight from the valley.
"I know right?" I said back, then we hugged.
I felt a small tug near the bottom of my dress then turned around to see Thurayya, Aladdin& Jasmine's little daughter, smiling up at me with a little toy tiger in her hand.
"Hihi, ClaireBear!" she waved at me.
"Hi sweetie! How are you!" I bent down to her level to give her a small hug.
"I'm good. I'm really happy you're back." She smiled then hugged me again.
"Aw thanks." I hugged her back again, when Jasmine (who just happened to be pregnant again), called her. I waved to Jasmine and she smiled back, then Thurayya ran over to her. I then felt two hands go over my eyes, they felt almost translucent.
"Guess who?" whispered a voice.
I ripped the hands off my eyes and whirled around to see Genie, Aiden, Noah and his little brother Eli standing there. I hugged the big blue lug.
"Wats up girlfriend?" he asked me with a funny accent.
"Nothin' much. Just chillin." I smiled, then we laughed. I turned over to Eli then gave him a high five, then hugged Noah (who is so close to dating Melody now it's not even FUNNY). I turned to Aiden, who gave me a strange look of hurt, anger, and affection all at the same time.
"Princess." He bowed to me, I curtsied back with a small look of confusion on my face. I thought we were closer than this. I felt something small land on my shoulders, then looked to see Tinkerbell on my right shoulder, and Rosetta on my left.
"Well, hello girls." I smiled at them. They both smiled, then kissed my forehead. They flew away, then Peter Pan came over and asked me to dance again. Before I took his hand to begin dancing, I looked at Aiden. He seemed completely crushed and I had no idea why. But it seemed to be my fault.
