Well, this the the final chapter of Frank GetsJealous. I really love the Cat and Frank pairing and I hope there's a new Cat Royal book soon, with fluffy moments ;)

Is it odd that I feel strangely sentimental about finishing this story? *Sigh* My last disclaimer for Cat Royal...

Disclaimer: I do not own the Cat Royal series or its characters. *Sobs*

Those who saw it were not exactly sure how it happened and those who did not, but heard of it, thought the incident extremely scandalous.

But there he was, the Duke of Avon's son seemingly dragging a redheaded girl who went by the name of Cat to the ballroom floor.

Many girls who had been hoping to catch the young man's eye turned away with a huff and a different young man, Robert, smiled at the two with a soft smile, as if he knew something no one else did.

For a while, it seems as if the girl called Cat is scolding the Duke's son, with him only giving short answers. The Duke of Avon's son, Frank, looked very distressed.

What added to the situation is that they were dancing very off beat to the relatively fast orchestra piece. They had resulted to slowly swaying side to side in the middle of the ballroom floor, too engrossed in their own conversation to care.

Cat's agitation seemed to be increasing because now Frank looked as if he were in a different place, as if he had a battle going on inside his mind.

"Frank!" the girl said sharply.

The Duke's son looked at her and his face was suddenly filled with a look of courage.

And then he kissed her.

Those few people who saw gasped and would have thought it inappropriate, but they couldn't bring themselves to criticize such a moment. They could not seem to find fault in how the girl seemed shocked at first, but then regained her senses and kissed the young man back, with as much passion. And how they were in the center of a circle of dancing pairs, women being lifted and twirled in the air by their partners. They could not possibly dub such a moment as lack of propriety. All they could do was look in awe at the obvious love shared between the two.

And those who did not see had missed out on the chance to witness real love between a young couple. Those who had simply heard about the incident judged without knowing, whispering about improper decorum behind open fans and over porcelain teacups.

And the two who had shared the moment broke apart but not very far, and looked at each other. They knew a line had been crossed. They knew things would change. But they would welcome it. After all, such mutual feelings are not meant to be repressed.

The End

And I must say it for the sake of saying it: "And they lived happily ever after."

Maybe not completely peaceful, knowing Cat's adventures, but still happy...

But with all that aside, thank you for reading this story and if you have stuck with it (even after it was left for three years...). I truly appreciate all the readers of this story, along with the reviews and favorites. It also feels really great to mark this story as complete, there I go again getting all sentimental.

Au revoir, and may your lives be as adventurous as Cat's (though hopefully not as dangerous) and your journeys be just as exciting.
