Draco looked around his filled ballroom. He could've expected this many people to show up. The ballroom was really beautiful. A big dancefloor in the centre surrounded by A buffet on the left side and a live Orchestra on the right. Two big stairs on the left lead down from the main corridor into the ballroom.

Although he had to admit that some ladies were beautiful or interesting.. he was looking for his unknown girl in the Woods.. you. The Royal Crier kept introducing new groups of girls.

'The Lady Tremaine and her daughters.. The very clever Miss Drisella and the very beautiful Anastasia.'

Draco eagerly watched him announce everyone but felt disappointment when he couldn't find you. Lucius stared at him, standing besides him and watching him.

'Who are you looking for?'

Draco looked at his father, unsure of what to say. He already disapproved of his interest in you.

'No one.' He lied.

'It's that girl in the forest, isn't it? That's why you were so generous with the invitations.' Lucius sighed.

Of course he knew. Everyone in the palace seemed to know who he was longing for. Not that he felt like you were going to show up anyways..

'Father, it was for the people.' Draco answered.

'I know you love the people, Draco. More than we do anyways. But I also know that your head's been turned. You've only met her once, in the forest.'

Draco snorted at the hypocrisy in that sentence. Yes, he only met you one time.. yet he would like him to get married with someone he'd meet tonight.

'And you'd have me marry someone once tonight.' Draco scoffed.

'A princess. It's a princess or nothing.'

Before Draco could reply, the Grand Duke made his way up the stairs.

'May I present her Royal Highness the Princess Chelina of Zaragosa.'

Draco looked at the lady infront of him. She had a slightly darker skin, brown long hair and Hazel eyes. She was.. gorgeous.. but not you. Draco grabbed her hand and kissed it out of curtesy.

'You are as handsome as your picture, and your little kingdom is enchanting.' She smiled.

'I hope the Princess will not find our little kingdom too confining.' Draco smiled.

While Draco made some uncomfortable small talk with the princess.. you finally arrive. The castle looked even more magical up close then you had ever seen. You couldn't believe you made it. The footmen opened the door.

'Miss Y/N.'

He extended his hand to you. You felt so special.. you suddenly didn't feel invisible anymore. You grabbed his hand and he helped you out of your carriage.

'Thank you.' You smiled.

You looked up at the palace. It suddenly intimidated you a bit and worry flood you. Would the apprentice you met be there? Would the others recognise you? Would the Prince be interested in you?

'I'm frightened, Mr. Lizard.' You said. 'I'm only a girl, not a princess.'

'And I'm only a lizard, not a footman. Enjoy it while it lasts.'

You smiled thankfully at him and took a deep breath. You placed your first foot on the lowest step and started to make your way up.

Draco gave the ballroom another glance.. disappointed that be hasn't spotted you. He wished that the upcoming first dance could be with you.

'Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, my lords, ladies and gentlemen, distinguished visitors, and people of our land: the Prince shall now choose his partner for the first dance. Let our ball commence!'

You could hear that sentence while you stormed through the door. Suddenly all eyes were on you as the doors hit the walls. Everyone looked at you in awe. As if you were the most beautiful girl they had ever soon. Draco stared up at you. It was you.. the girl from the forest! He smiled brightly as he turned to princess Chelina.

'Excuse me.' He said politely with a small bow.

'A thousand apologies, Your Royal Highness. I don't know what happened.' The grand Duke immediately said.

You took a deep breath to calm your nerves as you slowly headed down the stairs . Half way down the stairs you stopped and took a graceful bow, your dress almost covering all of the stairs.

As you walked down the final stairs, you saw him. Mr. Draco.. was the Prince? You couldn't believe this. You looked directly at him over the crowd of people that slowly moved out of the way. Draco smiled brightly, is gray eyes lighting up as he headed over to you. You stopped and took a second to take a breath and stare into his eyes.

'Mr. Draco.' You spoke, a small smile appearing on your face.

'It's you, isn't it?'

'Just so.'

'Your highness, if I may...' He started.

Your highness? Oh no he thought you were an actual princess?

'that is, it would give me the greatest pleasure, if you would do me the honor, of letting me lead you through this. The first...'

Draco seemed to hesitate a bit as he looked at you.

'Dance?' You asked with a small chuckle.

'Yes, dance.' Draco laughed. 'That's it.'

You smiled and nodded your head (i attached a video of the cinderalla live-action movie but im going to try to descibe it. Ive never done it before so if its confusion pls watch the video is tried).

Draco placed his hand around your waiste. You looked into his eyes and felt a connection unlike anything you had experience before.

Music started playing and you just decided to ket him lead. He swayed you left to right a little before spinning around with you.

'They're all looking at you.' You spoke a little nervous.

'Believe me, they're all looking at you.' He said with a smirk.

He let you go and spun you around. He switched hands and held his other hand on your waist now. He pulled you forwards, against him. For a moment your breath got stuck in your throat. He placed his free hand under yours and slowly moved it up and down together with you while swaying to the music. He then spun your around again.

You lifted up your arm as you held your hand near his face, afraid to completely touch him. You guided him to turn around with you before he pushed you out and you took the attention for a moment to spin on your own. His eyes were glued to you. Mesmerised by your beauty and grace.

He stuck out his arm and you grabbed it. He guided you half a round and let you spin, you grabbed his arm again to finish the circle. This repeated itself again. The people around you completely faded to you. All you saw was him. All you felt was his skin, all you heard was the music. He grabbed your hand as you moved towards and away from each other. With every step out.. you wanted to get back in. Taken by his mysterious gaze.

Suddenly he placed his elbow under yours and with his other arm he grabbed your hand and extended it to pull you into a slow dance. His smile was so beautiful. His almost white hair completely mesmerised you. He guided you all over the dance floor. You were surprised that you didn't mess up once.

He then let you flow out before he pulled you back in and let you flow out on the other side. He grabbed your hand and held you against him while you spun around again.

'Who is she?' Chelina asked.

'I have no idea.' The great Duke admitted.

Draco pulled you into another slowdance and made sure to show you off to all the guest. Coming so close to them that all the guest had to take a step back. It felt like you were floating. He then lifted you up and butterflies erupted in your stomach. Everyone gasped as he picked you up and lifted you high in the air. As he put you back down, your nose almost brushed past him. You could feel yourself breating heavily. He dipped you down and picked you back up before you two bowed to each other. Applause erupted all around you and you couldn't believe that this actually happened..
