Rosie's POV

I was now dry. It's nightime. I'm staying at the Palace with the King, Queen, Spazz, Olivier, Aurora and Flames. I'm on a balcony, looking out at the stars. My mom, Emily, went on an important trip to another land so I have to stay at the Palace for a few days. My dad died in the war, so I never knew him. I sighed, thinking about what could've been if my dad didn't die.

"Can I join you?" A voice asked, startling me. I turned around to see Flames. I gave him a small smile.

"S-sure..." I told him. He came over and stood next to me, watching the stars.

"Have you met Kellyanne yet?" He asked me. I shook my head no.

"Who's Kellyanne?" I asked.

"Knuckles and Rouge's daughter." Flames said, looking at me. I smiled as I looked into his eyes. He's kinda cute... I thought, then I shook my head. What am I thinking?!

"You ok?" Flames asked. I nodded.

"Yeah... yeah I'm fine... Just-just thinking about something..." I replied.

"You don't need to be shy around me." He told me. I smiled. "Wanna see something cool?" He asked.

"Sure!" I replied. Suddenly, a light blue thingy surrounded me and I was brought up into the air. "Ahhh! Get me down! Get me down!" He chuckled and flew up in the air next to me, and a thingy wasn't around him. He flew around me.

"Have you ever wondered how to fly?" He asked.

"M-maybe... I-I never really thought about it..." I replied. He reached out his hand.

"Take my hand..." I smiled and nodded. I took his hand. "Now, straighten out your legs and keep them together. Put your arms out in front of you, ok?" I nodded and did as he said. "Now, let's fly!" We started flying around. I screamed, terrified. I closed my eyes.

Flames: I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?
I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic flying ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

Rosie: A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you

Flames: (Now I'm in a whole new world with you)

Flames: Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

Both: A whole new world

Flames: (Don't you dare close your eyes)

Rosie: A hundred thousand things to see

Flames: (Hold your breath, it gets better)

Rosie: I'm like a shooting star, I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be
A whole new world
With new horizons to pursue
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare

Both: Let me share this whole new world with you

Rosie: A whole new world

Flames: (A whole new world)

Both: A fantastic point of view
No one to tell us, no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

Rosie: A whole new world

Flames: (every turn a surprise)

Rosie: With horizons to pursue

Flames: (every moment, red-letter)

Rosie: I'll chase them anywhere, there's time to spare
And then we're home

Flames: (there's time to spare)

Both: Let me share this whole new world with you

Rosie: A whole new world

Flames: (a whole new world)

Rosie: That's where we'll be

Flames: (that's where we'll be)

Rosie: A thrilling chase

Flames: (a wonderous place)

Both: For you and me

I laughed as we landed back on the balcony. "That was fun!" I said.

"I know! We should do that more often!" Flames replied.

"Ya know, I was really lucky to do this with you... Thank you..." I said.

"No, thank you... I never had that much fun in a while. If you ever wanna go flying, you know who to come to." Flames told me. I smiled.

"I'll keep that in mind..." I said, then I walked away, a big smile on my face.
