The Enchanted Forest was a familiar place since she had gone back there once before.. And now she was there again. This time it was for a more upbeat event. The citizens of Storybrooke found a way to get back to the Enchanted Forest, and this is what her parents decided to do with it. It wasn't so bad, though. This would be the second ball she would get to attend with Killian - and she would be able to do something that her father always wanted her to do - dance with him in the ballroom in front of the Kingdom, as he would have if she were to have grown up there. In fact, she had gone all out and was dolled up to look like a proper princess.
This party wasn't for her, though.. It was for her parents. They needed it after all they had been through.
She walked down the stairs and in to the ballroom. The party was already in full swing. As her eyes scanned the room, she watched people waltzing, smiling, and laughing. At the center of the crowd were the Charming couple themselves. Her lips curved in to a smile..they looked so happy, and in their element. She continued walking down the stairs, hoping that she didn't fall and make an idiot of herself. When she reached the bottom of the stairs, she looked around yet again. This time it was for someone in particular.. Her date.

there's only 1 rule PICK A PARTNER WHO KNOWS
WHAT HE'S DOING Ever since Hook had embraced a life of piracy, he hadn't attended many balls. Which was a large contrast from his days serving in the royal navy where he and his brother attended an abundance of them when they were on land and not at sea. This particular ball however, was one he absolutely had to attend. And it had a great deal to do with one woman in particular: Emma Swan.
Oddly enough this wasn't even the first ball they had attended together. It was when they had gone to the past and had been able to enjoy a dance before they were disrupted by the reality of the situation and the true purpose they were there. But tonight, they had the opportunity to make up for that. And Killian wasn't going to forgo such a wonderful opportunity.
He even dressed for the occasion, this being one of the extreme rare occasions that he did not wear leather. He had even removed his hook and put a glove in its place. The room was beautiful decorated, and extravagant, but then again . . . the hosts were expected to be nothing less than so. He smiled at the sight before him, his eyes eagerly searching the crowd.
It did not take long to find her as she made her entrance. Killian found himself just staring, aboslutely mezermized with how breathtakingly beautiful she looked; an image of sheer perfection and beauty. He managed to snap out of it when she was fully down the stares and closed his slightly parted lips as he made his way through the crowd to find her. "Princess," he said with a smile, in a slightly teasing voice. For tonight, she was indeed a princess, for she certainly looked the part.

Emma's smile widened when she saw Killian, and she felt her cheeks growing warm when he referred to her as 'Princess'. Sure, she was one, but she'd never really felt like one, until maybe now. "Captain," she mused, her lips forming in to a smirk. "Don't you look dashing?" Even though her voice held a playful tone, she meant every word. He was always incredibly handsome, but my, my did he clean up nice. Of course she had seen him wearing clothing like this once when they were in the Enchanted Forest back in time, but this was different. It was more of a relaxed nature, and she could really take in just how amazing he looked. The thought came to her that she was his now, and he was her's, and it made her breath hitch in her throat.
"Do you realize that this is our first ball together where we're actually...together?" She asked with a small tilt of her head. The first time they were only friends.. It was developing in to something more, slowly, but now there was no denying it. The two of them were together, and in love. What a wonderful state to be in at this event. "It's kind of weird to think that all of this is real." After reading about these kinds of balls, and seeing them in movies, it was really strange to be living through it. Especially knowing that it was her parents who were holding it to begin with.

WHAT HE'S DOING He continued to softly smile as she referred to him as Captain, and then commented that he looked dashing. "You mean more so than usual?" He asked with playful arrogance. He fell silent for a few moments, the expression remaining. "You look . . . " His eyes moved over her, taking in the sight of how perfect she looked in the dress and as his eyes went back to her face, he finished his sentence. "Breathtakingly beautiful." Which was an understatement, but they were the only words he could offer. Hearing her speak of how this was their first ball as a couple made his smile grow.
"Aye," he stated. For while he knew he loved her back then . . . things were far more different now. They were, truly together. In every sense of the word. "Our first ball was rather incredible, however I do believe this one will surpass it." Because they were together, and because there was no crisis that threatened to ensue . . . well, hopefully there would be none. "Take it all in, Swan," he told her as she expressed her disbelief at all this. He then extended his hand for her to take. "Now then, shall we see what you remember from last time" He asked with teasingly playfulness. "That is, if you will honor me with a dance," he added on, deciding to be as much of a gentleman as he could tonight . . . then again, the night was still young.

No matter how much he got gussied up, Killian still had his arrogance about him.. But she loved it. His cockiness was all to be silly... she knew the real Killian. She knew that deep down, he was sensitive, sweet, and loving. "Actually, yes. Somehow you managed to make yourself even more handsome." She spoke with a small grin. When he told her that she looked breathakingly beautiful, her grin turned in to a full on smile. "Try to keep breathing.. I wouldn't want my date passing out on me." She lifted a hand, and lightly touched his cheek. This.. was perfect. To be here.. with him, in this moment was absolutely perfect.
He spoke of how incredible their first ball was.. But she agreed, this definitely would surpass it, as this was a time for them to relax and unwind. He then said to take it all in.. and she was trying as hard as she could to do so. It was just so strange to think that she was there.. in the Enchanted Forest.. attending a summer ball. She inhaled deeply, and slowly exhaled. "It's definitely something..." She was wearing a tiara. She was in a gown. She was in a huge ballroom that belonged to her parents. Yep.. taking it in was challenging, but kind of a nice change of pace.
She looked at him when he invited her to dance, and her smile widened even more. "Hopefully I don't step on your toes," She took him by the hand, and followed him to the dance floor. "Luckily I have a partner who knows what he's doing." She gave him a playful wink.
