Mary Lynette awoke as a blue jays call was heard. She tried to get up, but something was holding her back.

What? She thought sleepily.

She awoke to see strong, jacket covered arms around her. She craned her neck to see Ash's face. Mary Lynette smiled and nuzzled his neck effectively waking him up.

Ash looked down at Mary Lynette.

"Can you wake me up like that every day?" Ash asked innocently.

Mary Lynette just smiled. Then shot up instantly.

"Ash. It's morning. I have to go back." Mary Lynette said.

"Oh. AWWW." Ash whined.

Mary Lynette giggled as she detached herself from Ash and stood up. Ash also stood up.

Ash looked to his angel; her eyes had turned blue again. He stepped closer to her and cradled her cheeks in his hand.

"I love you." Ash crashed his lips onto hers.

"I love you too." Mary Lynette whispered against his lips.

She untangled herself from Ash.

"Bye. See you tonight." Mary Lynette said.

"You, too. You know it's hard to let you go." Ash said.

Mary Lynette just smiled and said "Yes, but we'll be together all day long after we get married." She gave Ash a sly wink, gave him a hug and jogged her way back to the village.

She looked back and waved before disappearing in the forest. Ash waved back and sighed.

Soon she'll be my wife and we'll be together. Ash thought as he jogged back to the secret passageway to the castle grounds.

He slyly ran to across the castle grounds and to the secret door inside the castle. He pulled open the handle and went inside. He tiptoed to his room, went in and locked the door.

He fell onto his bed. Ash was still in dream land with Mary Lynette. He didn't remember when he fell asleep.

~Later in the morning.

Ash woke up and looked around. He ruffled his hair grinning and got up. He got up and went to the bathroom and looked in the mirror. He stopped when he saw Mary Lynette smiling at him leaning against the door. Ash looked around and frowned when she disappeared. He turned on the faucet and splashed his face with water.

"God, I'm dreaming." He muttered to himself.

Ash stepped out of the bathroom after finishing his shower and frowned when he saw Melinda putting out his clothes.

He quickly wrapped a towel around himself and smiled at her. "Good morning."

Melinda whirled around and her eyes zeroed on his eight pack. "Oh uhh H-hello?"

Ash smiled oblivious to her staring. "Thanks for the clothes." He nodded and waited for her to go.

Melinda smiled awely at him and noticed him waiting. "Oh. Erm I'll just go."

Ash nodded fakely smiling and gestured for her to go out. "Thank gosh." He muttered to himself.

Ash threw on the clothes and walked downstairs whistling a familiar tune. Everyone at the table stared at him thinking that yesterday was just a prank, a hoax. He sat down in his seat next to Melinda and smiled brightly. Ash nodded to everyone and smiled warmly at his parents.

The king cleared his throat. "Everyone, I will be making an announcement at the village centre today. Everyone is expected to come." He threw Ash a knowing look.

Ash looked at his father smiling but confusedly. Why was he looking at me like that?

The queen giddily looked at Ash smiling from ear to ear.

Ash smiled warily and ate his food. What was wrong with everyone?

After breakfast was done, the royals and their servants went to their carriages.

Melinda followed Ash happily and Ash raised an eyebrow at her."Oh, umm, I thought I was going to sit in the carriage…"

Ash smiled. "Of course. You don't need to ask." He bowed to her gentlemanly.

Melinda giggled and rushed inside the carriage giddily. She couldn't believe this was happening. Prince Ash Redfern finally fell in love with her. Brad and Sarah both got on the carriage and smiled happily at Melinda and Ash who were sitting beside eachother. Ash on the other hand was very confused by how everyone was giving him looks. What the hell was going on?
