THE night before the ball, yunhee and yoonjae were once again alone in his room. it was late at night, the two sat on his bed, just talking.

"I'll make sure to be the last person you dance with tomorrow. maybe I'll even whisk you away from everyone to talk on a balcony." yoonjae smiled at her, whispering.

since it was late, almost everyone in the castle was asleep. yunhee, having not been able to sleep, snuck out of her room and immediately checked to see if yoonjae was up. thankfully, he was. why? she had no idea.

"why, I'd love that. the moon is supposed to look beautiful tomorrow. apparently, it'll be a full moon and the brightest it's ever been this year." yunhee whispered back.

the two were sat pretty close to each other, his hand on top of hers as they sat together.

"do you remember what I said the other day? before you left to try on dresses?" he brought up, shifting closer to her.

she looked at him with a shy smile, a bright blush making an appearance on her face. he couldn't see it though since it was dark.

"maybe, maybe not." she joked. "can you remind me of what it was?"

he gently cupped her warm cheek again, leaning towards her.

"remember now?" he asked, joking back. she shook her head 'no' before she leaned in and connected their lips, locking him into a kiss.

he kissed back immediately and the two pulled away after a few seconds.

'I've been dreaming about this my whole life. I finally kissed him. I finally kissed prince jung yoonjae.' yunhee thought with a smile.

"I remember now." she quietly giggled, covering her face with her hands in shyness.

yoonjae chuckled at her before gently removing her hands from her face.

"I really liked that." he told her, making her flush more. he tucked her hair behind her ear, staring at her plump lips.

yunhee bit her lip before slowly wrapping her arms around his neck. his arms wrapped around her waist as he pulled her in for another kiss.

as the kiss continued, yoonjae moved up to lean against the headboard of the large bed, letting yunhee straddle his lap. he pulled her closer to him, deepening the kiss for the last few seconds.

she pulled away for air, a dreamy sigh leaving her lips after.

"you know, I've been dreaming about this for forever." she admitted, hiding her face in his shoulder.

"why do you get so shy after we kiss?" he pouted, making her look at him with a matching pout.

"I don't know, maybe its because I've literally been dreaming and wishing that this would happen." she replied with a small shrug. he chuckled again.

"you know that I love you lots, right?" he told her, kissing her forehead.

"I do. you know that I love you much much more, right?" she replied, smiling at him.

"of course." he smiled back giving her many small kisses, including down her neck to her collarbones.

the night ended with yunhee sneaking back to her sleeping quarters with a big smile on her face. she fell asleep peacefully and happily with said big smile still on her face.
