                                               Evelyn's P.o.V

The ball returns to it's usual liveliness after I take my place.  Barely anytime after, a prince comes over.

"Your Majesties," he says, bowing, "Prince Rodger of Harveltown."  We bow in return.  "I was hoping I could have the honor of giving the Princess her first dance." he looks at me.

"Of course." I say holding out my hand.  I look over at my parents, they nod.  Prince Rodger takes my hand and leads me onto the floor.  He's tall with well-groomed dark hair, he has brown eyes with high cheekbones.

He places a hand around my waist and I put a hand on his shoulder.  He pulls me in close and starts to dance.  I look at him awkwardly, unsure of where else to look.

"So, Princess Evelyn," he begins, "Why are you a new Princess?"

"Oh, I was taken from my parents when I was a baby.  They finally found me after 14 years." I tell him.

"Whoa, that sounds a lot like what happened to me!" he says.  I look at him strangely and raise my eyebrow.  He laughs, "I'm kidding."  I roll my eyes and grin.

"Excuse me." someone says.  We stop dancing.  "May I?" the man asks.

"Of course." Prince Rodger says.  "Princess." he says bowing.  I curtsy in return and he leaves.

"Prince James of Caromona." he bows.

"Princess Evelyn of Arendelle." I say, even though he obviously knows who I am.  We dance, then get interrupted after a couple minutes by another Prince, just like Jack said.  After a while, I excuse myself and return to the spot next to my parents.

"You're doing very well, Evelyn." Jack tells me.

"Thanks, dad." I say.  I rest for a while, then another Prince comes up.  He looks a little familiar.

"Good evening, your Majesties.  Prince Benjamin of Varcelon." he introduces, bowing.  My heart skips as I curtsy in return, he just had to be named Benjamin.  "Princess, would you care to dance?" he holds out a hand.

"Oh, uh, yes, of course." (A/N: So. Many. COMMAS!!!) I say.  I take his hand and step onto the floor. 

Prince Benjamin is tall with short dirty blonde hair and hazel eyes.  We begin to dance, and he is very good.

"So, Princess Evelyn." he says.

"Yes, Prince Benjamin?" I reply.

"You are obviously new to being a Princess." he tells me.

"And how can you tell?" I ask.

"Your dancing skills are sub-par, as well as your speaking skills." he says.

"What's wrong with that!?" I ask, rather angrily.

"Well, when a Prince asks you to dance, you should reply with 'yes' or 'no, thank you', no stuttering." he says.

"Well sorry, I was flustered.  You reminded me of someone." I say defensively.

"Oh, do I?" he asks, raising an eyebrow.

"Yes." I state.

"And may I ask of whom I remind you of?" he asks.

"You may ask, but will receive no answer." I say, holding my head high.  He smirks down at me.

"You really haven't been a Princess long.  How come?" he asks.

"I was taken as a baby and they just found me." I tell him.  He nods, then another Prince taps his shoulder.

"May I?" the new Prince asks.

"Certainly." Prince Benjamin replies.  He turns to me and bows, "Princess Evelyn."

"Prince Benjamin." I curtsy.

"Careful, Princess." he says before leaving.

"What's going on with him?" the new Prince asks.

"Believe me, if I knew, I would tell you." I say.  He introduces himself and we dance.  After many Princes, I excuse myself as Elsa announces the end of the ball.  We thank everyone for coming, then go to our rooms to get ready for bed.

                                                Anna's P.o.V

"I'm gonna go say goodnight to Evelyn." I tell Kristoff.  He nods and I leave.  Elsa and Jack are just leaving when I get there.  I say goodnight to them and knock on Evelyn's door.

"Come in." she calls.  I walk in and climb on the end of her bed and sit cross-legged.

"So, how did you like your first ball?" I ask.

"It was fun." she says simply.

"Did you like any of the Princes?" I ask.

"Well...." she trails off.  My brain sparks.

"Which one!?  Was it Prince Benjamin?  You two seemed to have a nice time together." I squeal.

"Well, the thing is... I have a boyfriend." she says.

"What!?" I exclaim.

"Shh!  I haven't told anyone here, though.  I never have time.  His name is Ben." she tells me, pulling a stack of pictures from under her pillow.  She shuffles through them and hands me a picture.  I examine it as she explains. "We've been dating for almost two years now.  I don't think he even knows where I went.  I just left."

"Oh my." I sigh, handing her the picture back.

"Just don't tell anyone, please.  I need to tell them myself, I just don't know how." she pleas.

"I can help you with that." I say, "I won't tell them anything."

"Thank you, Aunt Anna." she says, hugging me.

"Alright, get to bed.  Goodnight." I tell her.

"Goodnight." she replies.  I shut the door on my way out.

The next morning, Evelyn comes down several minutes after Kristoff and I got there.

"Good morning." she says, sitting down and grabbing toast.

"Good morning." Elsa greets, "Did you have fun last night?  I didn't get a chance to ask."

"Oh, yes, it was wonderful."  Evelyn says.

"Did you like any of the Princes?" Elsa asks.

"It seemed like you were interested in Prince Benjamin." Jack points out.

"Ah, well, about that...." Evelyn starts.

"What is it?" Elsa asks.

"It's just that...." Evelyn looks at me.  I nod slightly.  "I kinda... have a boyfriend."

Elsa looks startled, "Do you mean he asked you to be his girlfriend?"

"Uh... no.  I have a boyfriend back where I lived.  We've been dating for over two years." Evelyn tells her.

"Oh... may I see a picture?" Elsa asks, in shock.

"Sure." Evelyn says, looking glad for the excuse to leave.  She gets up and runs upstairs.
