I looked at Lance in shock. I knew he was only mouthing along to the words but he looked so serious. He stared right into my eyes and then started to inch his head towards mine.

No way.

Clapping started echoing around us as the song came to a close. I pulled back away from Lance as I came to my senses about what we were about to do and started clapping too. Lance removed his hips from my waist and also started clapping. I felt my cheeks blush a deep red colour as I looked around at the crowd which had gathered around us. Queen Aria was smiling warmly at me with a twinkle in her eye as she mouthed ‘so close’ at me. I noticed Antoinette, Rose and Amour staring at us with their jaws hung open. They quickly recovered and plastered on big mischievous grins on their faces. Amour mouthed ‘we told you so’ before they all flew off out of the ballroom.

Lance grabbed my hand and led me quickly off the dance floor. He led me towards the exit of the ballroom.

            “Wait, where are we going?” I inquired.

            “It’s a surprise. You’ll like it; I promise.” Lance answered casually.

We walked out of the palace and towards the forest. It was pitch black at this point and it was cold.

            “Lance, are you sure going into the forest is safe at this time of night?” I asked warily.

            “Where we are going yes; perfectly safe.” Lance answered.

I nodded and carried on walking.

            “By the way, we’re leaving tomorrow morning to gather more troupes for our army.” Lance told me.

            “Tomorrow? Why the rush?” I asked.

            “Well, considering an evil sorcerer knows that our protector is finally here I thought it best that we should move on. He won’t hesitate to attack if he knows where you are.”

            “Okay, that sounds reasonable.”

Lance nodded.

Throughout this whole walk through the forest he hadn’t looked at me once. I was starting to get a little annoyed that he wouldn’t look at me considering I was trying to make conversation.

I was about to shout at him when he finally turned around and looked at me. I opened my mouth to speak but he quickly pressed his finger against my lips silencing me.

            “You have to be quiet now otherwise they might get scared.” Lance whispered.

            “Who will?” I asked in confusion.

            “They will.”

Lance moved to the side and pointed to a small gathering of fairies behind him. They must have been hundreds of them but considering how many lived here this was only a small amount of them gathered. I gasped in surprise at how beautiful they looked. They were all golden obviously as they were fairies and everywhere they flew a trail of gold dust followed them. A group of them were dancing gracefully in mid-air whilst the others were playing tiny instruments and singing. The song changed suddenly and I gasped when I realised what song it had changed to; the most beautiful song in the whole world and my favourite ever song. This was my song.
