Jack and Emma's POV, third person

"King Jack, of Arrendale!" A man called Jack up, along with Emma. "Princess Emma, of Arrendale!" Emma stood a small distance away from Jack, afraid he didn't want her around. "Are you sure I should be standing here? I don't think I'm supposed to be--" The man picked Emma up by her shoulders, placing her next to Jack. "oh.." She took a small step away from him, looking nervous. Everyone straitened up immediately, smiling, and then clapping.

Jack smiled and looked over at Emma. "Hi."

Emma looked at him, surprised. "Hi--hi me?"

He nodded, still smiling.

"Hi," She replied softly.

"You look beautiful.."

"You look handsomer! I mean, that's not a word, you look more handsome!" Emma replied.

Jack looked at the crowd of people that were smiling and telling jokes, dancing, and talking. "So.. this is what a party looks like."

"It's warmer than I thought!"

"And what is that amazing smell?" The two closed their eyes, inhaling through their noses.

"Chocolate!" they said in usion, laughing.

Emma opened her mouth to say something more, but she was interrupted.

"Your majesties, the duke of Weasletown."

"Weasleton!" a smaller man corrected,  "It's Weasleton," He bowed down to the two, his comb over falling. Jack and Emma covered their mouths to keep from laughing. He stood up again. "As your closest partner in trade, it's only fitting that I offer your first dance as king."

"Thank you, only I don't dance, but my sister does!"

Emma grinned. "Oh, I don't think so--"

"Excellent!" he exclaimed, pulling Emma out into the crowd.

"Sorry," Jack whispered with a smile.

The Duke was an.. interesting dancer, to say the least. "So lovely to have the gates open, why did they shut them in the first place? " He leaned in, so that he and Emma were very close. "Do you know the reason?"

Emma leaned back and shook her head. "No.."

"Hmm.. alright! They don't call me the little dipper for nothing!" He continued to do a weird dance. "Like a chicken with the face of a monkey! I fly!"

Emma walked back to Jack, panting. "Well, he was sprightly." Jack commented.

"Especially for a man in heels!" Emma replied.

"Are you alright?"

"I'm great," Emma smiled.

"I wish it could be like this all the time, but it can't." Jack said softly.

"Well why not?"

Jack turned away. "It just can't.."

"Excuse me for a minute," Emma said softly, passing by people when she tripped on the fabric of her dress. "Ah!" A hand suddenly grabbed her own. "Glad I caught you," Kozmotis was standing in front of her.

"Kozmotis," Emma smiled as he pulled her up, putting his drink on a plate.

The two smiled, beginning to talk as they walked through the palace gardens.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Wait, so you have how many brothers?" Emma asked.

"Twelve older brothers." Kozmotis replied. "Three pretended I was invisible for two years."

"That's horrible," Emma commented.

"That's what brothers do,"

"And mine.. when Jack and I were little, we were very close. Then one day, he just shut me out, and I never knew why.."

Kozmotis took her hands in his. "I would never shut you out."

Emma smiled. "Okay, can I just say something crazy?"

"I love crazy," Kozmotis said.

Emma began to sing,

"All my life has been a series of doors in my face

And then suddenly I bump into you,"

Kozmotis stood up.

" I was thinking the same thing, because like —

I've been searching my whole life to find my own place

And maybe it's the party talking or the chocolate fondue,"

They both sang together, 

"But with you (but with you)

I found my place (I see your face)

And it's nothing like I've ever known before

Love is an open door

Love is an open door

Love is an open door

With you (with you)

With you (with you)

Love is an open door

I mean it's crazy (what?!)

We finish each other's — (sandwiches)

That's what I was gonna say!

I never met someone

Who thinks so much like me (Jinx! Jinx again!)

Our mental synchronization

Can have but one explanation

You 

 and I 

 were 

 just

meant to be

Say goodbye (say goodbye) to the pain of the past

We don't have to feel it any more

Love is an open door

Love is an open door

Life can be so much more

With you (with you)

With you (with you)

Love is an open door

K: Can I say something crazy? Will you marry me?

E: Can I say something even crazier? Yes!"
