Enjoy!
Lilly was in the garden for most of the afternoon. Her grandmother, the Queen, was a bit too busy to make the dress that day, so Lillian had to entertain herself. She decided to sing the song she sang for the old woman to see if it would heal her scraped knee. Wrapping her hair around her bent knee, she closed her eyes, and began to softly sing.
"Flower, gleam and glow. Let your power shine. Make the clock reverse. Bring back what once was mine…"
Rapunzel was walking down the path to find her daughter to get ready for dinner, when she heard singing. At first she couldn't make out what the words were, but she saw Lilly, and realised it was her.
"What a pretty little voice," she smiled to herself. As she came closer, she heard the words, and her smile faded quickly.
"Heal what has been hurt. Change the fate's design. Save what has bee-"
"Lillian!" Rapunzel stormed over to her young daughter, holding up the hem of her long, green dress. She had a look of disapproval on her face, and as she towered over Lilly, she crossed her arms over her chest.
"Yes, Mama?" Lilly asked timidly.
"Where did you learn that song?"
"I… I learned it today," Lilly replied.
"Where?" Lilly met her mother's gaze with timid eyes.
"Umm… I don't… remember." Rapunzel sighed, letting her arms fall to her sides, but raised an eyebrow at her daughter.
"All right, I believe you," she said. "Come on, then; time to get ready for dinner." She held out her hand, and Lilly took it, scurrying to keep up with her mother's long stride. She quickly glanced down at her knee while Rapunzel wasn't looking, and tried to stop herself from gasping. The dried scab and sore redness were gone, replaced by her usual pale skin. She smiled.
"Papa," Lilly said softly as Eugene tucked her into bed that night. "Can you take me back to the forest again tomorrow?"
"Why?" Eugene asked, leaning on his elbows to be eye-level with her.
"It was fun," Lilly replied. Eugene smiled.
"Okay," he said. "We'll go earlier in the day, and I'll have Mama pack us a picnic lunch so we can stay longer."
"Okay," Lilly agreed. Eugene blew out the candle on her bedside table, and went to the door.
"Papa," Lilly called, before he closed it.
"Yes?"
"Can we go again the next day?"
"And the next?" Eugene asked, grinning.
"And every day after?"
"Of course."
"Goodnight, Papa."
"Goodnight, Princess."
