At dinner, Rapunzel had indeed told just about everyone personally that Flynn was going to kiss someone, Eugene choked at first but he was extremely proud his son had made a move. The princesses were thinking of revenge, except Constance, who was to busy being harassed by an ugly boy. Pascal and Maximus were just sad they hadn`t seen it.
Flynn and Avery made their way into the dining room, purposely going slow to avoid teasing and assumptions. Once they were in the room, all eyes were on them and it was uncomfortable to say the least. The other princesses glared at Avery, as if trying to cut her with their eyes. The glares intensified when Flynn sat directly beside her, his chair a bit closer than need-be.
Everyone was eating quietly, the only sound was the clanking of utensils against plates. Larry thought it would be best to start conversation.
" So, Flynn? Did you guys kiss or what?" Larry asked bluntly, making Flynn choke on his biscuit, Avery hit his back so he would get the blasted thing out of his mouth. Rapunzel panicked screamed, but Flynn held up his hand, signalling that he was fine. Flynn finally stopped talking and glared at Larry, one for asking about something so personal, and two because he nearly killed him.
" No." He told him flatly.
Eugene decided now was the best time to tell everyone some good news, " Okay, new topic, we`re going on a field trip!" Eugene sang, everyone perked up at this. " And we`re going tooo... pause for dramatic effect... Arendelle!
That night everyone went to bed excited
The next morning, Flynn was sleeping in. again. He was tired because his "Buddy" Larry kept him up all night with questions about him and Avery. He knew there was to be an event today, but he didn`t care, all he wanted was rest.
Eugene was waiting with Rapunzel and the girls, wondering where Flynn was. Realization hit him.
" I swear if he`s sleeping again." Eugene grumbled, going up to his son`s room, the women following suite.
Once Eugene opened the door, he was met with a sleeping prince, just as he`d suspected. The consort walked over and shook him, and nothing happened. If Flynn wasn`t breathing so hard, you`d think he was dead.
" Okay, event before the event, whoever wakes Flynn up, gets a hug from him!" Eugene said, he would`ve said kiss, but that was a bit much. He laughed silently, these girls were going to have a tough time waking him up, he was his son after all.
Beatrix tried first, shaking him lightly, which did absolutely nothing.
Constance tried by turning him over, and didn`t work either.
Theresa would have flipped the mattress if Rapunzel would have allowed it, so she merely pulled at his hair, which made him turn in his sleep, but that was all.
Avery almost woke him up, but she stopped when he turned again, this time into her lap. She quietly moved him off. She wouldn`t have minded him using her for a pillow if they were alone, but they weren`t so she had to move.
Abigail woke him, simply by coming in to kiss his cheek, Flynn`s eyes shot open and he jumped away from her.
" What on earth were you doing!?" He asked, still half-asleep. Abigail smiled and hugged him, remembering the deal. Flynn was about to push her off him but Eugene held up his hand.
When the girl let go, Flynn stared at his father, silently demanding an explanation.
" It was a contest to see who could wake you up, the got a hug." His father told him flippantly, making Flynn glare.
" Hey, don`t give me that look, I was going to let them kiss you!" Eugene warned.
Flynn yawned, and saw Avery looking at him out of the corner of his eye. " Morning Ave." He said, still tired. Avery blushed. He gave me a nickname! He gave Me a nickname!. She thought excitedly, but on the outside she just said,
" Morning Flynn."
Eugene walked close to Flynn`s bed, leaned over and whispered teasingly, " She`s a keeper, y`know. You`d have beautiful kids too." Flynn probably looked like a tomato he was blushing so hard.
" Dad!" Flynn hissed, Eugene put his hands up in surrender.
" Is anyone packed yet, huh? Anyone?" Rapunzel asked, eager to visit her cousins in Arendalle.
" Mom, we just found out last night, no one had time to pack." Flynn said laughingly, loving how happy his mother was most of the time. " we`ll pack now, then we can go, `kay?"
Rapunzel nodded to her son, running to go get her, already packed, suitcase.
All the people in the room dispersed, leaving to pack what they needed.
Everyone met up at the fjord, they got there by carriage of course, and boarded the first ship to Arendelle. Flynn stayed close to Avery for most of the ride, because she was sea-sick. Avery started to wobble, and Flynn caught her before she fell.
" You okay, Ave?" He asked, he didn`t even notice he`d given the girl a nickname. Avery nodded slowly, steadying herself.
Only a few hours pasted and Arendelle was already in sight, this trip was going to be amazing!
Another filler chapter, `cuz the trip to Arendelle is going to have it`s own chaps. you really don`t have to review this one, but I`d really appreciate it if you did. Until we arrive in Arendelle, hugs and kisses to you all!
