The ballroom was more crowded than Rapunzel and Eugene had expected- just how many people were living in Arendelle was a shock. There was almost no room to walk, let alone dance as some people were trying to do. Portraits lined the walls, depicting the royal family through the years- Elsa and Anna as sisters, a portrait of the King and Queen- one of the King at his coronation. Servants were walking around, making sure everyone was comfortable before waltzing away to do whatever it was that servants did.

"This is fun, huh, Eugene?" Rapunzel sidled up to him, resting her cheek on his arm. Eugene let his eyes dart between the guests, catching glimpses of the Queen- How did she managed to walk in heels made of ice?! his brain was astounded- darting in between the crowds, the newlywed couple standing at the front of the room as guests came up to congratulate them, some bowing politely, others wildly shaking their hands or giving hugs.

"Not as fun as our wedding, I must say," he sent her an affectionate look, making her laugh exuberantly. They soon found themselves at the end of the line, only two couples away from Anna and Kristoff, who both look happy but exhausted. Eugene took eh time to watch his wife on line, the way her now short brown hair framed her face, the way her green eyes lit up when greeting bother guests as they waited. The way her pink and purple dress hugged her body, creating a sooth silhouette that was his to enjoy. The way her she bit her lip as her excitement grew- they were now one couple away, soon to be subjected to mindless drabble about the party and the whole affair- but Euegene could have cared less. He was with Rapunzel. and he knew that as long as she was with him he would try to have a good time.

"Congratulations!" Rapunzel squealed, breaking Eugene's trance- they were now at the front of the line, the new couple standing expectantly in front of them. As soon as he layer eyes on Kristoff and Anna he almost blurted out a laugh- the guy was so much bigger than the princess, his large hand almost encasing ghee waist completely as he let it rest on her hip.

"Rapunzel!" Anna cried cheerfully, jumping at her dousing to wrap her arms tightly around her neck. As soon as they let go, Anan introduced Kristoff, who nodded in greeting. Rolling her eyes, Anna rube dyer hand on his shoudlde,r nudging the blond forward.

"Come on, Kristoff- this is my cousin, Rapunzel- introduce yourself!" Rolling his brown eyes, Kristoff gave Anna a sweet peck on the cheek before turning to Rapunzel, the two engaging in conversation. He sighed, that leaved him to talk to…

"Hello!" Anna gave a small wave, her blue eyes bright and inviting. Euegene grinned, nodding in her direction.

"Congratulations, your Highness-" he began, stopping short when Anna suddenly blew a raspberry, rolling her eyes at him.

"Oh, call me Anna!" she said, "we're in-laws after all!" He smiled uncomfortably- these royals were pretty casual for, well, royalty! Was it like this in every kingdom?

"Uh, okay, Anna-"

"I'm so sorry, but I forgot your name!" Anna cut him off with a breathy gaps, throwing her hands up in apology.

It's okay,…. Anna, really," Eugene began-"

"What was it, Edward? Elias?!" she guessed, counting off her fingers, and the king of Corona felt his face turn red as Kristoff sent his wife a sly smile, Rapunzel's cheeks puffing as she struggled to hold in her laughter. Leaning toward her, Kristoff whispered something in her ear and Eugene jumped as she clapped her hands happily.

"Oh, Eugene!" she cried, the skirt of her wedding dress bouncing as she hopped up and down like a jack-rabbit, and soon he found Anna's arms wrapped tightly around his neck in a hug, her grip so tight he thought she was going to cut off his air supply. He met eyes with Kristoff, and the ice cutter pulled the princess away.

"Okay, feisty-pants," he chuckled as he squeezed her into his side, Anna looping her arms around his, "I think we should let the man live for now, okay?" She smiled sheepishly, sending him an apologetic look.

"Sorry," she said childishly, standing on he tiptoes to ruffle her husband's hair.

"So, any big plans?" Rapunzel asked. Anna shrugged.

"Well, I mean, we'll have to find a place for Sven to stay," Anna began, "and we'll have to clean up after Olaf, but I'm sure Gerda will do that later- Oh! We need to make sure they serve the ice cream sundaes, Kristoff-!"

"Uh, i think they mean honeymoon-wise, Anna," Kristoff corrected her with a soft laugh an dyer face turned re done again.

"Oh- that!" Anna said, letting her eyes trail after a mountain of chocolate that was being carried past by a servant, the sweet substance hypnotizing to her.

"You can always come visit!" Rapunzel suggested, "we have guest rooms- and Elsa can come too!" Anna and Rapunzel gasped in unison, grabbing each other's hands.

"That would be so much fun- Kristoff, can we? Can we please?!" Anna's voice had a whine tinged to it, and in a few seconds she was pouting as Kristoff crossed his arms, giving her a playfully pouty look before sighing reluctantly.

"I guess we could," he agreed hesitantly, Anna jumping on him to smack a kid onto his lips.

"You won't regret it, I promise- we can even bring Sven!" Anna called as Rapunzel then pulled her to the dance floor, leaving the two men to chit-chat by themselves.

Both stood for a few minutes in silence, watching as Anna then began to twirl around with Rapunzel on the dance floor, her wedding gown puffing out around her. Rapunzel had a huge grin on her face- this was probably the most fun she had had since her adventure with eugene, when she had first left her tower. Eugene grinned- it sure seemed that way. Elsa had joined in the fun, and Kristoff let out a laugh as the Queen froze her sister's dress, as well as the green ribbons tied in her hair.

"So, what's it like?" Kristoff asked suddenly, making Flynn jump.

"Huh?"

"What's it like?" Kristoff repeated, a patient smile on his face. If he and Eugene were in-laws, he may as well make some small talk while he could. Eugene ran a hand through his brown hair, sending the ice cutter an apologetic look.

"Eh, it has its ups and downs- living in a castle can have its perks-"

"No, not that," Kristoff cut him off, "I mean to be in love?"

Eugene opened his mouthy o answer, but nothing came out- Kristoff had thrown a fast ball, and he and no idea how to catch it. He sent a ooh to Rapunzel, who was now giggling with Elsa as Anna tried to grab her sister's braid, the two women avoiding the bride nimbly. Multiple guests were watching, smiling and clapping at their antics. They had never seen either of the women so relaxed, and it was a big surprise once their cousin was added to the mix.

"I guess….." Eugene sighed heavily, an affection glint in his eyes as he stared at Rapunzel, with her curious green eyes and kind smile, her glossy brown hair… "I guess seeing in love is like melting chocolate. Slowly, then all at once."

Kristoff crossed his arms, pondering what Eugene and said. After a few seconds, he nodded in agreement, "Yeah, I guess you're right-"

"I can't wait to show you around!" came Anna's exclamation, and soon she was rushing past the men, Rapunzel in tow. They exchanged a nervous look, Rapunzel waving as they passed.

"There's the stables I need to to show you- ooh! the banister! We can go slide down it later!" they heard Anna shout, her voice riddled with giddiness. Elsa soon came after them, raising a hand for Anna to just stop for a second.

"Anna! I don't think that's a good idea!" Elsa called after her sister, and the two men watched the Queen hitch up the skit tot her ice dress, tottering after Anna and the Queen of Corona carefully.

"Was it a good idea to get them together?" Eugene asked, staring as Elsa disappeared around a corner. Shouts of glee and yells of protest amidst some scolding could be heard, echoing goff the walls of the ballroom. Kristoff shrugged.

"I guess we'll have to see," he said, "go have fun, okay? I'll see you around." He gestured to the ballroom, full of dancing citizens and servants and soon found himself caught up int eh action, although his mind was still nagging at the idea of Anna, Kristoff, and Elsa spending their time in Corona. He shook his head. He couldn't let thoughts like that bother him. His cousin in-law was married, and that was cause for celebration enough.

After a few long minutes, Rapunzel, Elsa and Anna re-emerged in the ballroom, twirling and side-stepping through gusts until Elsa was taken away by servants, Anna at the front of the room with Kristoff, and he reunited with his wife.

"I can't wait for Anna and Kristoff to visit!" Rapunzel told him, "we'll have to get the guest rooms ready-"

"Rapunzel, we have time to think about that later," he said, stopping her short with a quick kiss. She blushed, letting her green eyes dart around the rom until they stopped, widening in surprise, "Look!" she pointed. Following her finger, Eugene smiled- Kristoff was trying (and failing) to teach Anna certain dance steps, jumping in pain as she proceeded to step on his feet multiple times.

"Cute," he said, then to Rapunzel, "but not as cute as you." Rapunzel smiled, throwing her arms around his neck.

In the middle of a crowded dance floor, surrounded with family, the King and Queen of Corona shared a kiss, full of happiness and hope that it would be like this forever. Once they broke apart, Rapunzel rested her head on Eugen's shoulder, a sly grin pulling at her lips.

"What is it?" Eugene asked, as a sudden look of annoyance crossed her face.

"I saw you staring at my cousin earlier," she deadpanned suddenly, making Eugene pale.

"Rapunzel-" he tried, but she cut him off, saying, "I'm just teasing!"

"Oh, good," he sighed with relief, "I thought you actually-"

"Oh my god!" she laughed at him, slapping his arm playfully.

It didn't matter though. He was with his wife, and was as happy as could be.
