-True loves kiss,- Devina said to herself,- i felt it, it was real. How?

She washed her hands, still not believing what had just happened, and came back, taking another glass of sparkling wine, walking around, trying to find Ruby.

-Hello gorgeous,- Nathans voice echoed.

-Hey, is it the time?

-Yes,- he nodded. Devina was surprised that he isn't kissing her again, but didn't say anything and followed him.

The king was in his place, and Nathan got everyones attention.

-Ladies and gentlemen, tonight is a special celebration to me, my family and all our kingdom,- everyone cheered,- it is the time to take of your masks.

Everyone did as they were told, and Nathan invited Devina on the throne.

-I wish for you all to meet my future wife to be, Devina, who will also be your future queen.

-Long live the Queen!- everyone shouted and clapped their hands.

Devina felt like she was on the market. Everyones eyes were on her, and all she wanted to do was disapear.

Ruby was watching her from the first row, and cheered together with others.

In five minutes everyone returned to the celebration, and Nathan asked Devina, if she wanted to go for a walk.

Of course she did. Devina needed fresh air.

-The garden in night is more beautiful than in day,- Nathan told her, and they walked, smelling every flower that caught Devinas attention.

She stopped.

-What is it?

-Can i take off my shoes?

-Yes, it's a garden, the grass is safe.

She took off her shoes and walked bare foot. The soft grass tickled her feet, and she laughed every time it happened.

-How did you like the ball?

-It was...- Devina remembered the kiss,- wonderful.

-Were you scared of all the people?

-A little bit.

-Now they know who you are, and who you belong with.

-Yes, they do,- they stopped in front of a little water fall.

-Make a wish,- Nathan giggled.

-I wish...

-No, don't say it out loud, only you and the water fall will know what you wished for.

-OK.

She closed her eyes and made a wish.

The walk back was faster than Devina wanted it to be, and Nathan hugged her, before he returned to the party, and Devina walked to her room.

Ruby ran into her room and jumped on her bed.

-How did you like it!?- Ruby was so excited.

-I think...

-It was amazing, cool, haven't had so much fun since highschool!

-It was nice,- when Devinas voice was a little lower than before, Ruby got her attention towards Devina.

-What happened.

-Nothing.

-C'mon, you can tell me.

-Uhm, we kissed.

-Oh, you did! Awesome!

-It was more than awesome...

-What do you mean?

-It was the true loves kiss.

-I can't believe this! Wow! That's so amazing! Im so happy for you! How was it?

-It was...- Devina sat on the bed,- i had all those feelings you mentioned the other day, it felt perfect to be in his arms.

-See, i told you.

-Yes, i know, oh well, i think i have to get some sleep.

-Aha, dream about your prince charming,- Ruby giggled and left the room.

Devina left all on the floor, dressed in her nightgown and got into the bed. She closed her eyes, and remembered the kiss once more.

She wished that moment would never end.

His lips and touch.

Ruby drank half bottle of wine what she took from the kitchen in early morning, while walking through coridors.

This night made her feel special, this kind of feeling she had lost a long time ago, but now she has a chance to feel it again.

Before closing his eyes, Nathan remembered his wish- Long live his Queen. He watched how the moon was crossed by clouds, and he found his eyes closing and dream coming to him.

Demos walked around the mirror hall, he couldn't find peace. Anywhere.

What happened this night, cannot ever repeat itself, he knows that.

But what if it does?
