This is where you finally get to see Danny and Sam on a real date and not a fake one. This is also when the real trouble starts, so keep your fingers crossed. Review please!
The next day was the Christmas Ball, so most of the morning was filled with preparations. Danny was excited that he didn't have to fake date this time. It was going to be for real. There was no worry inside the boy's mind. The same thing was going though Sam's mind. Sam was going on a real date. There didn't have to be a fake-up-break-up or anything. Her and Danny would play it normally like breathing.
Elliot and Paulina also prepared for the Ball. Buying clothing and putting on jewelry and makeup. It was not everyday that a Ball would be announced and these two would be the guests of honor. Danny and Sam wanted to invite their two friends to thank them for helping with the plan. If they didn't come up with such a devious plan, Danny nor Sam would've realized their love for each other and probably end up running away or marrying someone else.
The Ball had finally started and Sam was walking by Danny's side like usual. Jazz had noticed something different between Danny and Sam. There seem to be a glow between the two teenagers. 'Maybe they really are in love' Jazz thought before showing a smile. Danny and Sam were smiling the whole time they were at the Ball.
When the music started, the prince and princess decided to start dancing together. Danny's dance steps were a little slow, but not funny looking.
"I'm impressed. Looks like I can't call you Two Left Feet," Sam grinned.
"But I can still call you that," Danny reminded Sam.
"Oh really?"
"Yes, two..." Danny's sentence was interrupted by a sweet kiss by Sam. This was their first real kiss.
"I'm pretty sure that's a no."
"Cheater."
Sam showed a smirk while dancing on the dance floor. Her and Danny circled around the Ball Room Floor with no worries. They were in love, so there was no need for a plan to make any marriage happen. Sam started imagining herself in a wedding dress and walking up to Danny. This would soon become a reality.
Meanwhile, King Jack and Queen Maddie were on their thrones watching the men and ladies dance together. They happen to notice King Jeremy and Queen Pam. They arrived at the Ball for their daughter and their future son-in-law. King Jack decided to use this opportunity to talk to his future in-laws. This was unknown to Danny and Sam.
"Hello, your majesties," King Jack greeted.
"Why hello to you too," Queen Pam greeted back.
"We never got the chance to thank you for finding our daughter and caring for her while her ankle was still sprained," King Jeremy thanked.
"It's our pleasure!" King Jack grinned. "Your daughter is a fine young lady."
"Yes, I suppose she is," Queen Pam agreed. "She's also persuasive, seeing the letter she sent us."
"Persuasive? What do you mean?" King Jack questioned. King Jeremy gave the other king the letter. The letter that Sam sent to her parents to convince them she was deeply in love with Danny and was willing to marry him and not be arranged to someone else. This shocked Jack more than anything. "Wait a second, my son told me you carried a tradition to never marry until sixteen years of age!"
The parents stared at their kids dancing happily. After a while, Danny took Sam's hand and led the princess upstairs to the balcony. The parents knew something wasn't right. They started remembering that their kids had not wanted an arranged marriage and argued about it. Was this their way of rebelling, by deceiving their parents?
"I think we need to talk," King Jack said.
"I couldn't agree with you more," King Jeremy agreed.
At the balcony, Danny kissed Sam so passionately and sweetly. She kept kissing her loved one back.
"I love you," Danny whispered in Sam's ear.
"I love you too," Sam replied.
"Hey guys," Elliot greeted. Paulina was beside the boy.
"Hey, you guys rock you know," Danny smirked.
"You were right Paulina, I am in love with Danny and he seems to love me back," Sam grinned before Danny took the princess' chin and turned it toward him.
"I do love you back."
"Danny!" Jazz shouted while coming up the stairs. She noticed Elliot and Paulina with Danny and Sam. "Ok, tell me all. I don't know what's going on, but Mom and Dad know you two deceived them with your little dates."
"What?" Danny responded bug-eyed. "But I'm not faking it this time!"
"Faking? I knew it. There was no love connection between you and Sam at all, was it? You two were having your little date just to get away from the arranged marriage thing."
"At first!" Danny promised. "Don't you get it Jazz? Sam and I really are in love! This is a real date!"
"Does it matter?" Jazz questioned. "Mom and Dad know about it, including Sam's folks. I wish you could've had me included. I would've understood you know."
"I already had two involved. I didn't want to include another person!"
"Stop arguing, it's getting on my nerves!" Sam glared.
"What are you going to do?" Paulina asked Danny.
"Sam and I are gonna have to confess. It might not end well, but it's time I stopped tricking my folks," Danny replied before facing Sam. Her eyes showed sadness in them. "Let's go Sam. It's time to spill the beans."
"We'll come too," Paulina said.
"No, we started this nonsense. We're not even dating you guys anymore! It's better for you two to not be involved. We'll just tell them that we fake dated to find someone to marry of our choosing and ended up falling for each other instead. Sam and I might end up marrying each other either way."
"He's right," Sam supported.
"I hope you're right," Jazz said.
