The evening star is shining bright
So make a wish and hold on tight
There's magic in the air tonight
And anything can happen...
"Just at that moment, the ugly frog looked up with his sad, round eyes and pleaded, 'Oh please, dear princess, only a kiss from you can break this terrible spell that was inflicted on me by a wicked witch!'" Eudora read the storybook, multitasking as she tied pink ribbon around the waist of a manequin.
"Here comes my favorite part," Charlotte whispered to you and Tiana, clutching her cat to her chest, which let a distressed "meow."
"And the beautiful princess was so moved by his desperate plea, that she stooped down, picked up the slippery creature, leaned forward, raised him to her lips, and kissed that little frog!"
"Awwww!" Charlotte shrieked. Tiana gagged loudly, and you just sat there quietly, smiling to yourself and imagining it.
"Then," Eudora continued, turning the page of the book, "the frog was transformed into a handsome prince. They were married and lived happily ever after. The end," she finished, snipping the tails of the ribbon.
"Yay!" Charlotte cheered, falling back onto the thick petticoat of her dress. You clapped excitedly while Tiana watched the both of you with a content smile.
"Read it again! Read it again!" Charlotte chanted.
"Please, Ms. Eudora," you said quietly as you adjusted the hem of your blue dress.
Eudora looked at you with soft eyes before speaking. "Sorry, Charlotte. It's time for us to be heading home." She said, pulling Charlotte off the floor and adding the bow onto her dress. She picked up her basket. "Say goodnight to Tiana and Y/n."
Tiana crossed her arms with attitude.
"There is no way in this whole wide world I would ever, ever, ever, I mean NEVER kiss a frog. Yuck!"
"Really?" You asked.
Charlotte looked over with a mischievous look in her eye. "Is that so?" She slammed a handmade frog costume on her cat. "Well, here's your prince charming, Tia. Come on, kiss him!"
You laughed as Charlotte shoved the poor cat in Tiana's face.
"No."
"Just kiss him, Tia!" You shouted as they bickered.
"Stop it!" Tiana said. "Since you want me to do it so bad, Y/n should kiss him! Prove it's not gross!"
Charlotte turned towards you, and shoved her cat in your face. "Kiss him, kiss him, kiss him!"
"I won't, I won't, I won't!" You yelled in rebuttal, pushing Charlotte backward.
She immediately got back to her feet and said, "I would do it. I would kiss a frog. I would kiss a HUNDRED frogs if I could marry a prince and become a princess." Her cat tried to escape Charlotte's arms, but was unsuccessful as she gripped it tighter and tried kissing it. It got so scared that it jumped up and attached itself to the ceiling with its claws. This led to the three of you falling over and laughing, Tiana falling backwards onto your legs.
"You girls, stop tormenting that poor kitty," Euroda scolded. "Poor little thing." She stood on a chair and pulled it off the ceiling. She removed the costume and set the cat on the ground, shaking and scared as it crawled away. Eudora hummed.
The door opened and Charlotte's father filled the frame. "Evening Eudora."
