I felt his sweet touch of his lips on mine. My cold body suddenly was filled with warmth. I opened my eyes and they fluttered. Then I saw my Philip looking down at me and I smiled.

The three fairies cheered and hugged and cried.

"So, you are Aurora?" asked Philip.

"I suppose I am," I said. I reached out and touched Philip's face and he leaned forward and kissed me again. Tears of joy ran down my face and I was so happy he was safe.

We heard people waking up below us and Flora rushed over to the window. "Everyone is waking up. Come, you must meet your parents Rose…I mean, Aurora," she said.

Philip helped me to stand and I did. My dress trailed behind me when I walked. I looked over at Philip and gasped, "You're hurt."

Philip looked down and smiled and laughed, "It's just a scratch."

"Must have been from the thorns," I said.

The three fairies and Philip all stared at me.

"I was with you all from the moment I pricked my finger. My soul left my body. I know exactly what happened," I said and smiled. I turned to Philip. "You were so brave…Prince Philip."

Philip smiled and kissed my cheek, "Just call me Philip."

"Rose, we are sorry that we never told you the truth about yourself," said Fauna.

I turned to the fairies.

"We only wanted to protect you," said Merryweather.

"I understand my three dears. You were all wonderful mothers," I said and I walked over and gathered them all into a hug.

They cried and laughed and I laughed with them.

Flora coughed and sniffled and said, "Now then, Philip, you are going to meet your bride's parents. You don't want to look like that. Your clothes are all torn." She waved her wand and Philip's outfit transformed. "Let's go," said Flora and Philip offered me is arm and I smiled and took it.

We walked down the tower and we were just outside of the throne room.

The trumpeter saw me and I smiled and nodded to him. He widened his eyes then held up his trumpet and blew into it announcing mine and Philip's arrival.

Philip looked at me and smiled, "Are you ready?"

"As I'll ever be…but, I'm nervous. What if my parents don't like me?" I asked.

"They will love you. Just look at me if you are nervous," said Philip.

I smiled and nodded. I picked up my dress and we walked down the steps. We didn't look away from each other's eyes. I looked out at all of the people and saw the King and Queen. My parents.

"It's Aurora! She's here!" exclaimed my father.

I smiled and looked at Philip again.

"A-a-and Philip!" stuttered the old man from earlier.

He must have been Philip's father. Philip and I walked up to the thrones and he bowed. I curtsied.

"Oh Aurora," exclaimed my mother.

I released Philip's hand and rushed into her arms. My father stroked my hair and I felt at home.

Philip's father rushed over to Philip. "Wh-what does this mean boy? I-I don't understand" he said to Philip.

I walked over to the old King and smiled. Then I kissed his cheek. Then Philip took my hand and I smiled and walked over to him.

The King stuttered and Philip and I began to dance. Just like we did in the forest.

For a while the King looked dumbfounded, then he finally relaxed and smiled as he watched us dance together.

Suddenly I looked over and noticed that my dress was now pink. I smiled and looked over at the fairies. Merryweather looked at Flora and narrowed her eyes then she used her wand and turned my dress back to blue. Then Flora made it pink. This continued on and on. But, I didn't care. I finally had my dream Prince and everything was perfect.
