Author's note: Thanks to the reviewers LGCoffeeAddict, antica, Nausicaa of the Spirits, and choirsinger. LGCoffeeAddict I purposely made it very close to the movie. I loved most of the movie but the end just didn't work so this story was my way of seeing if I could get an Edward/Giselle pairing to work. Speaking of Edward/Giselle pairings, if anyone likes that there is a new livejournal community called EdwardGiselle that just started. And Nausicaa of the Spirits I will try to change that when I do my revision of the story when I'm done.

The three spectators on the balcony all sighed in relief when they heard the singing wafting down from above letting them know that Edward and Giselle were safe. Upon seeing the rescue vehicles gathering down in the street Nathaniel turned to Nancy and Robert and said, "My lord, my lady, please excuse me but I must go and alert your authorities to the whereabouts of my master and mistress. If you will excuse me?"

"Of course," Robert stammered as Nathaniel took hurried back inside.

As he left Nancy asked, "This whole situation seems like something out a fairy tale."

Taking a deep breath Robert said, "That's because it is." He quickly explained his understanding or Giselle and Edward, how they were from a fairy tale land called Andalasia and Narissa (the one who turned into a dragon) had sent Giselle here to prevent her from marrying Edward. So Edward and Pip (the chipmunk) had come to rescue her and bring her back home.

As he finished Robert looked at Nancy hoping that she didn't think he was crazy. Surprisingly she accepted it. "It makes the most sense of anything so I'm just going to accept it," she said.

After an awkward pause, Robert said somewhat sheepishly, "I guess the evening didn't turn out the way we thought it would, did it?"

"No," Nancy replied softly, her face inscrutable.

Hesitantly Robert asked, "Are you mad at me?"

For a brief moment Nancy closed her eyes and then said to Robert, "I'm not mad at you Robert. I can hardly be mad at you for doing what I told you to do."

"I know you told me to do it. But that doesn't mean it didn't hurt to see me kiss someone else" Robert commented. He paused for a moment and the continued, "Why did you tell me to kiss her Nancy?"

Sighing Nancy tried to explain, "For a couple of reasons. First of all, your kiss might have saved her life. I would be a pretty heartless person if I let jealousy prevent a potentially life saving act. And I did it because I didn't want to always be your second choice. I love you Robert. I've held off telling you because I knew it would make you uncomfortable. I do love you and I'm willing to wait until you are ready, if you are ever ready, if I think that you love me.

But I'm not going to wait just to be a second choice. I saw the looks you two gave each other. And if kissing Giselle was going to help you figure out what you wanted then at least I could know."

Robert stepped towards her and began to speak when his cell phone rang. Checking the caller ID he saw that it was Morgan's babysitter. She had probably seen what was going on here on the news and was panicked. He knew he had to take this call but he wished he didn't. "It's the sitter," he explained. "I need to take this."

"Go ahead," Nancy said resignedly already picturing how Robert would use this to once again avoid talking about their relationship. "I'll be inside." She turned and began meandering back to the ballroom, her full skirt swishing softly as she walked. Robert watched her go as he answered the call. He quickly reassured the baby-sitter that everyone was fine and that she didn't need to worry but that they might be home later than expected if they needed to give a statement to the police.

As he ended the phone call Robert saw Nancy sit down on the dance floor and examine an object she had found there. Quietly he approached her and kneeled down in front of her. He saw that she was holding one of Giselle's shoes in her hands a sad and distant look in her eyes.

"Why so sad?" Robert asked.

"She forgot her shoe," Nancy said with a slight shrug. "Figures."

Gently Robert took the shoe from her and looked at it. "May I?" he asked holding the shoe down towards her feet.

A slight smile came onto Nancy's face and she gave Robert a small nod of assent. Gently he slipped the shoe on her right foot. "It's a perfect fit," he said looking straight into Nancy's eyes.

Nancy reached out to Robert saying his name but Robert interrupted her holding up his hand. "No Nancy. Let me talk. You and I have been together for five years. You helped me through my wife leaving me alone with a baby and you've always been there for me. But I've always kept you at a distance. I thought that if I stopped myself from letting my emotions get involved then I wouldn't be blinded into making another bad decision. Because I don't know if Morgan could get through that I don't think I could either. And so I kept putting off letting us get to that next level. Then Giselle came along. And she was confusing and infuriating and charming and wonderful. And she didn't let me keep the walls I had built up to protect myself. So I let myself think I could be in love with her. And then . . . I kissed her and I knew I wasn't. I loved the idea of her – someone who believed in True Love, someone who would never dream of betraying anyone, someone who made me believe again. Then I realized that the reason I couldn't love Giselle was because I was already in love with someone like that."

At this point Robert made sure he was on one knee and he gently held Nancy's left hand between both of his. "Nancy I know you. I know the secret fairy tales you told Morgan and I know that you believe in True Love as much as Giselle does. And I'm finally willing to admit to myself that I can trust my heart telling me you would never, ever leave me like Marie did. I know that you will always be there for me and for Morgan and that you love her as much as I do. Giselle may have made me face these truths but you are the one who taught them to me in the first place. I had planned on doing this earlier; telling myself it was a good decision because of how our strengths and weaknesses matched up. But now I'm doing this for one simple reason. I love you Nancy Tremaine and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. So, will you marry me?"

Stunned Nancy just stared at Robert for a moment and then she threw herself into his arms and gave him a passionate kiss. Startled Robert lost his balance and the two of them ended up on the floor. Gazing up at Nancy he asked with a grin, "Can I take that as a yes."

"You'd better because there is no way I'm letting you out of this situation," Nancy said as she pressed another kiss to his lips. They stayed that way until a bashful cough forced them to look up and see a New York policeman standing near the elevator.

"Robert Phillip and Nancy Tremaine?" he asked with raised eyebrows.

"Yes, we are," Robert said as he and Nancy tried to right themselves.

"The couple we rescued from the roof are downstairs and are asking for you, if you would care to follow me I can lead you down there," the officer replied. Robert and Nancy carefully picked themselves up off the floor and followed the policeman down the stairs to the lobby. Standing there wrapped in blankets were Edward and Giselle. Giselle was chattering excitedly to a female policeman with the chipmunk on her shoulder echoing her gestures and adding an occasional squeak himself. Edward was gazing at her lovingly until he noticed Robert and Nancy's arrival and then he gently touched her arm and directed her attention to them.

Giselle's eyes lit up when she saw Robert and Nancy were walking together hand in hand. "Did you two have your own True Love's Kiss?" she asked excitedly.

With an adoring look at Nancy, Robert admitted, "Yeah. I guess we did."

"We're engaged to get married," Nancy clarified.

"How wonderful!" Giselle exclaimed clapping her hands together. "I was just telling this wonderful woman about how Edward and I are going to be married back in Andalasia and now to know you two are also going to be married I think that you should come and have your wedding in Andalasia too. Then Morgan could be in my wedding and yours and Edward and I could host a lovely party for you. After all you both helped us so much"

"You would be more than welcome in my country," Edward affirmed. "And should you choose to join us there I would insist on celebrating your presence and your nuptials."

"Oh, I don't know," Nancy hedged. "It's so soon. Don't you think Robert?"

"I think it sounds wonderful. Morgan would die of happiness and I've wasted too much time as it is. I have plenty of vacation time stored up to go and Morgan would be fine missing a few days of school. So if you want to do it, then I think we should do it." Robert said.

"Really?" Nancy asked incredulously, shocked at this change in Robert. "Then, absolutely let's do it."

"We will need to have a wedding here to make it legal and we could do that later so we can have our friends see it," Robert cautioned.

"Of course, but a real fairytale wedding would be wonderful," Nancy gushed.

"Then you must accompany us," Edward insisted.

"Hold on just a second though," Robert cautioned. "I can take time off but I need at least a day to take care of things."

"And I need a day to make sure that all of my orders are taken care of," Nancy agreed. "Would it be possible to wait?"

"Of course," Giselle said graciously. "Right Edward?"
"Or course," Edward echoed.

With that, the question of lodgings came into play. Edward said that he and Nathaniel had vacated their hotel room earlier that evening. Nancy offered to have Edward stay with her, an idea Robert objected to. Finally it was decided that both Edward and Giselle would stay with Robert. Morgan would sleep with Robert, Giselle would sleep in Morgan's bed and Edward would take the sofa. Nancy promised to meet them at Robert's apartment as soon as she had finished taking care of her arrangements and then headed off to her own apartment.

Robert, Giselle and Edward headed to Robert's apartment where they were met by a very anxious Morgan and baby-sitter. After dismissing the baby-sitter, Robert explained all that had happened. While she was disappointed that Giselle would be returning to Andalasia Morgan was thrilled to hear about Robert and Nancy's engagement and the upcoming trip to Andalasia. And so all of them went to bed happy, dreaming of what awaited them the next day.
