Close Your Eyes and Make a Wish

“Prince…umm…Leo…I…” I began protesting and shifting slightly in his arms as my nervousness started to get the better of me.

Suddenly, there were sounds of what sounded like explosions in the distance and at the same time colorful lights lit up the view of the night sky right in front of us. My eyes widened as I sucked in a breath at the beauty of the amazing display for fireworks that had sprung up to decorate the dark night sky like rainbow blooming flowers. It was the first time in my life that I had seen actual fireworks.

Was this what the prince really wanted to show me?

“They’re really pretty aren’t they?” he asked in a soft whisper close to my ear.
