THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG: GW style part 3

Standard disclaimer applies

The sun shone brightly over the Yuy's palace. Everybody was busy preparing for the ball and the arrival of Relena's father and her sisters. Queen Yuy ws pressuring everyone to work hard specially the four men. If you would look at a distance, they look like ants gathering food in preparation for the rainy season. While everyone is in chaos preparing for the said event, two people was still sleeping peacefully.

Heero moved slightly from his original sleeping position, he felt a soft body beside him. He opened his eyes slowly and looked to his right to find a sleeping angel. Again, he shifted his weight to his right side so he could fully stare at Relena. He slowly caressed her arms, noticing how creamy and flawless it was, its smoothness made him feel excited. Relena moaned softly and Heero took her in his arms. He rocked her gently like a baby to make her sleep again. Relena responded by snuggling closer to him, she was back again to her dreamless sleep. I could stay like this forever. Heero started to drift to sleep again but...

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

The couple woke up and jumped out of the bed. "Stay here." Heero told Relena and went to the window to inspect what happened. He saw Duo flat on the grass just below the window.

"Mommy! Mommy!" Duo wailed.

Queen Yuy immediately ran to her son's side. "Oh my! Son, are you okay? What happened here?"

"He slipped. The grass is a little wet from the rain last night and he was running and running." Quatre said while passing through them.

Heero's laughter could be heard even if the window is high. Duo glared at his brother but it seems that it has no effect at Heero. Relena went to the window to see what happened. "Duo slipped."

Relena smiled. "I see. I'll take a bath."

Heero nodded. "I'm next."

After a couple of minutes Heero and Relena emerged out of the bedroom to eat their breakfast. They went to the dinning chambers. Only two plates were set on the table, indicating that the others have already eaten their breakfast. They both ate their breakfast and went to see the things that is happening around the castle.

Queen Yuy was in the middle of the very huge chamber that was empty before but now it full of elegant decorations. The floor was covered with different colors of rose petals. The rectangular tables are covered with white silk clothe with embroidered designs at the edge, flowing gracefully at the floor, in it's middle is a long red silk cloth horizontally placed on top of the white one bearing the symbol of the Yuy's. The chairs were made of fine ivory with real gold linings on the edges with cushions that was stuffed with pure cotton. The stair's handles was covered with different colors of roses. The chandelier was made of pure glass hangging above.

Relena was totally delighted at the sight before her, even though the decorations is not yet finished, it already looked so beautiful. She released Heero's hand and twirled in front of him. "This is so lovely!!!"

Heero smiled and took her hand again and went in to meet his mother. "Mother, what can we do?"

"What are you two doing here? Why don't you two explore the garden outside." Queen Yuy was gently pushing the couple outside the room.

"Mother, we can't just relax while all of you are doing something." Heero said while pushed.

"The only help you can do is for the two of you to be relaxed besides, the party is for you." Queen Yuy has already pushed them out of the room and closed the door.

Relena sighed. "They don't want help from us."

Heero looked at her. "If they don't want it..." he grabbed her hand. "...let's do what mother said. I bet you want to see the garden."

Relena nodded and they both head out of the garden. Once they are in teh garden, Relena was again delighted. In the middle of it was a fountain surrounded by white and yellow mums (in case you guys don't know, it's a small flower), inside the pond are small kois (also known as carps). Heero guided her her to one of the stone bench. He made her sat on his lap.

"I'm getting excited to get married." Heero murmured in her ears.

"Me too." Relena smiled. "So what are we going to do the whole afternoon?"

"Hmm....how about intoducing ourselves further?"

"That would be good."

So the whole afternoon, the soulmates spent it getting to now each other fully. Sharing their secrets, hopes and dreams...

Later that evening...

Different carriages are now arriving at the Yuy's palace. Everyone was excited to know about the engaged although some princess and prince were disappointed knowing that their crushes are getting married. Some of them think that they are perfect for each other and that they will produce beautiful children.

The most important guests finally arrived. Four white carriages bearing the symbol of the Peacecraft's on its door. Heero's brothers were waiting by the stairs to escort the ladies. A servant went to the first carriage and placed a pillow at the ground, other servants rolled the carpet leading to the open door. The door opened and King Peacecraft emerged. Everyone bowed at the presence of the most highest and powerful king. He went up the stairs where Heero's own parents waiting for him. The king and queen also bowed down in front of him.

"You must be Heero's parents. Please do not be too formal in greeting me. We will be in-laws soon." King Peacecraft said.

King Yuy stood up straight. "Welcome my lord. Yes we are Heero's parents. I am Odin and this is my wife, Odette."

Queen Yuy extended her hand and King Peacecraft took it and kissed it. "Without further ado, let's go in and celebrate the engagement of our children." King Yuy said gesturing inside. The trio went in.

Back at the carriages, at the second one, the servants did the same respect as what they did to the king. This time, Princess Hilde and Princess Dorothy emerged. Prince Duo and Prince Quatre instantly went to the girls and escorted them respectively inside the castle.

On the third carriage, same respect was also given to them. Princess Catherine and Princess Sally got out of the carriage. Prince Trowa and Prince Wufei also escorted them respectively to the castle.

Inside the palace, chats and soft music filled the air. It was now more beautiful than it was before. Royalties are dressed with beautiful clothes.

King Yuy stood at the platform. "Ladies and gentlemen welcome!" Everyone clapped. "I would like to thank you all for coming in this one important event. Also, I would like to acknowledge the presence of the almighty king and my future in-law, King William Peacecraft!" Everyone again clapped and the King stood and sat back again. "And now, I'm sure that you people would like now to see the newly engaged couple that was destined by fate and heaven to meet to bring forth peace and prosperity in the world. Ladies and gentlemen, Prince Heero Yuy and Princess Relena Peacecraft!"

The couple went down the stairs. Relena was wearing a velvet sky blue gown accented with silver embroidery. It was off-shoulders so she has to wear white gloves that was past on her elbows. Her hair was done in a bun with small diamonds surrounding the bun. On the other hand, Heero is in silver brocade with a dark blue velvet roquelaure over the shoulder. He has a sword with deep carved silver and gold handle and the usual heavey ornate buckles studed with diamonds and the usual lace, gloves tricorne.

Everyone stared in awe at the couple. As they reached the down the stairs they were greeted by their respective siblings and parents.

The ball was truly a magical night for everyone. Especially for the young couples and their brothers and sisters...

Prince Duo was sitting at a table with Princess Hilde. He couldn't stop gazing at her, for the first time in his life he was silent and shy. In return Princess Hilde was blushing all the way. For her, this was the best ball in her entire life for she has found the person that would make her heart beat.

On the other side of the table was Prince Trowa and Princess Catherine. "So, what are your interest, lovely one.?"

Catherine blushed at what Trowa said to her. "Umm...I go the circus sometimes. I love it!"

"Really! Why don't we go sometime together? I also like the circus." Trowa said with excitement in his voice.

Prince Wufei was escorting Princess Sally to the balcony. He doesn't want to mingle with other people, only with the lady with him tonight. He usually likes older women because they act more mature than others. Princess Sally was also enjoying the night with the man beside her even if he is younger than her.

Prince Quatre and Princess Dorothy was dancing gracefully. Dorothy was thankful that her eyebrows was shaved, never did she expect that she would meet the man of her dreams that night, same goes to Quatre.

"So, what do you do in your spare time?" Quatre asked.

"Fencing. I know it sounds weird." Dorothy said shyly.

Quatre smiled. "Nope. Why don't we practice together sometime?"

Dorothy nodded and they continued to dance.

Prince Heero and Princess Relena was kissing in a far corner. They were more deeply in-love now that they know each other very well. Finally Relena broke the kiss.

"Honey, let's not isolate ourselves from the others." Relena said.

Heero stared at her. "Hmm...you're right. Let's eat, I'm starving." He dragged Relena towards the table filled with various foods.

The Yuy's castle was filled with love and laughter. Truly, it was a night to remember...
