Chapter 6 Bonnie makes an entrance
Meanwhile back at the ball...
Lorenzo yawns in his all white royal suit with black shoes, not because he's exhausted or anything, just bored none of the girls he's danced with so far are not what he's looking for. Leans back right foot out and takes the girls hand he stands straight and they spin to the right then the left. Then Enzo spins her around just as Damon brings the next girl. Damon walks the other girl away. Enzo bows and she curtsys while they dance Lorenzo looks at the line of girls he has yet to dance with. When will it end? He wonders as he lifts his hand to tell Damon to bring another. Katherine, Rebekah and Sybil wait as they watch the other girls.
Queen Lucyanna and King Elijah sit on their thrones watching the event dresses in their royal colors of purple and blue. "So many lovely girls, he'll find her tonight I'm sure of it." The king looks at his queen. "And if he doesn't?" The queen's smiles fades. "Then this will never end." Damon who walks by says, "I don't think we ordered enough food." The queen looks at him, "What?" The next one takes Enzo's and his arm he walks around her then lifts his hand. "I want to dance with him!" Sybil says Rebekah and Katherine cover her mouth with their hands. Enzo looks to see who said that as he switches hand with his current partner. He has a grim expression on his face.
"Look at his face is he smiling?" The Lucyanna asks. "It's a wince." Elijah says. "With a tiny little smile." The queen says. "Wishful thinking my love." The king says. Lucyanna sighs defeatedly. While Enzo dances with a new girl Damon is off to the side talking to one of the servers. "Pardon me." Katherine says placing a hand on his shoulder. He waves the server away. "I'm sure you notice my two beautiful daughters." She points to Rebekah and Sybil with one using her finger to clean her teeth while the other tries to fix her dress. Damon looks disgusted. "Madam for the last time, the Prince with dance with all the girls in due time. Please exercise some restraint."
Katherine pull his behind a pallor, "Any mother would want to see their daughter dance with the prince. But what I want to know is who get the honor of dancing with you?" Damon looks at her. "What?" He says. "Come on look at those features this physical physic that full head of hair." She strokes his hair. "No touching, please." Katherine stops then steps closer to him. "Sure these not need to pretend. I know you felt that something between us." Damon looks at her, "You know I wish there was something between us." Katherine smiles, "Really?" Damon nods, "Yeah a continent." He leaves with a smirk. Katherine composes herself then watches her daughters.
Enzo lifts his hand Rebekah who is all excited gets moved out of the way by Sybil. When she reaches him He holds his hand out to her. Sybil takes it and then scratches her neck Enzo notices. "Do you have an itch?" Sybil shakes her head, "No, your highness why would you say a silly thing like that?" They step forward and switch hands. "Well you just scratched yourself." She looks at her mother and sister, Katherine tries to tell her to stop but it does not work. "You did it again." Sybil smiles, "I don't think so." Then she pulls him closer.
Sybil recites her poem to him. Enzo pulls back a little, "Excuse me?" Sybil continues as he spins her out then back in. "It's poetry!" She says Enzo nods using his hand behind her to bring for the next girl. Damon see and makes his way over. Enzo struggles to get out of her hold. "Don't you get it?" Sybil ask as she's pulled away by the guards.. "Got it." As Damon brings the next girl Katherine steers her away and Rebekah come up. "Damon tell the orchestra to up the tempo." Damon gives the signal and the music speed increases.
Rebekah has her left arm to the side as Enzo holds his hand out she takes it and starts laughing. "Am I missing something?" He asks as he pulls her closer slightly. "Well your laughter is excessive." Rebekah continues to laugh, "But your highness is it true that you joke?" They face each other. "I don't think anyone's ever found me funny." He places his hand on her waist she snorts as they spin with their joined hands over their heads. Rebekah leans on him while Enzo struggles to keep her upright. Damon comes to his rescue and pulls her away. "Oh, but we were getting along so great. Hey loosen up a little." She elbows him in the head. "Faster Damon." Enzo says. Damon nods in pain and gives the signal yet again the music speeds up even more.
Enzo dances with lots of girls and poor Damon struggles to keep up the ball is getting interesting with the girls Enzo quickly let's go of some of them fall into the crowd of the other couples. "I think it's going awfully well, don't you think?" Elijah asks Lucyanna. She hits his shoulder.
While the chaos continues inside guess who just arrived outside. Bonnie steps out of the carriage when it stops. She grabs a part of the gown and walks up the stairs. "Bonnie." She turns to face Sheila. "Alright now from here your on your own." Bonnie looks shocked, "Your not coming with me?" Fairy Godmother shakes her head. "I got you here, now the rest comes from you. Don't be afraid, just remember to get out of there before the clock strikes twelve." Bonnie looks at the clock it reads. 11:15 Bonnie nods then heads up the steps.
Back inside it's just gotten worse though Enzo is almost done dancing with all the girls he does not notice the mess he's made in the process. Once he dances with final girl he does not notice the he too spins Damon around before he looks up and sees Bonnie enter the room. Bonnie smiles from the top of the stairs. Enzo smiles at her as she descends slowly down the stairs when she is finally down she walks over to him. "Hello." He says Bonnie curtsys, "How do you do your highness?" Bonnie looks at the ground. Enzo lifts her chin they gaze into each others eyes and the start to waltz around the room.
Everyone is silent as they dance when they waltz passed his parents Elijah asks, "Who is that lovely girl?" Lucyanna replies, "No one knows. She is stunning, isn't she?"Elijah nods, "Like a vision. If I were a young man I'd-" Lucyanna looks at him. "Yes dear?" The king snaps out of it, "Well I'd be younger right?" The queen nods. "Yes dear." They hold hands. Bonnie and Enzo waltz passed her family. Sybil who scratches her neck asks. "Where the hell did she come from?" Rebekah looks surprised. "I've never seen her around here before." Katherine with her hand on her hips, "There's something vaguely familiar about her." As they watch them dance.
Still dancing Enzo says. "You know I have the strangest feeling that I've met you before." Bonnie smiles. "I'm sure that I would remember." Enzo asks, "Was it last summer at the lake?" Bonnie shakes her head. "No, I can't swim." Enzo nods then asks, "Then it must have been this winter at the lodge." Bonnie's eyes widen. "Up in the mountains?" Enzo smiles. "You go to the mountains too?" Bonnie smiles, "No, but I love looking at them there very beautiful." Enzo looks into her eyes. "Your very beautiful." Bonnie glances around the room. "Everyone's staring at us." Enzo looks at her slightly dazed. "Really? I forgot their was anyone else here."
(Enzo)
Ten minutes ago I saw you
I looked up when you came through the door,
My head started reeling
You gave me the feeling
The room had no ceiling or floor.
Ten minutes ago I met you
And we murmured our how-do-you-do's.
I wanted to ring out the bells
And fling out my arms and to sing out the news.
I have found her, she's an angel
With the dust of the stars in her eyes.
We are dancing, we are flying
And she's me back to the skies.
In the arms of my love I'm flying
Over mountain and meadow and glen,
And I like it so well, that for all I can tell
I may never come down again
I may never come down to earth again.
(Bonnie)

(Enzo)
I have found her.
(Bonnie)
I have found him.
(Both)
In the arms of my love I'm flying
Over mountain and meadow and glen,
And I like it so well, that for all I can tell
I may never come down again
I may never come down to earth again.
Once they finish that note they waltz out of the room out to the garden area while everyone else stays in the waltz and waltz and with all this waltzing I don't know how they aren't dizzy from it all!
