You heard a knock on your bedroom door and then a familiar voice. “Sister, it’s me!”

A smile spread across your face as you made a beeline for the door. You swung it open to reveal your sister who was excitedly jumping up and down in her spot. She squealed in delight as she threw arms around your neck. You laughed and hugged her back and ushered her into your room.

“I take it your talk with Prince Thor went well?” You smiled from ear to ear.

“Yes! We have a date tomorrow!” She cheered happily. “What about you? How did it go with Prince Loki?”

A blush and a shy smile crept onto your face. “We also have a date tomorrow!”

Your sister squealed girlishly again and grabbed your hands leading you to your closet. “We need to find something for you to wear!” She practically threw herself into your closet. “What are you two doing and was it his idea? How did he look when you asked him? He wasn’t mean was he?” She was firing questions at you without taking a breath.

“Slow down!” You giggled. “We’re going horseback riding at noon, it was my idea, and he wasn’t rude at all.” You rolled your eyes. “Why would he be rude?”

“Horseback riding?!” Your sister’s eyes grew wide. “You’ve only been on a horse a few times! What if you fall off?” Her voice was full of worry. She didn’t want you to embarrass yourself in front of the prince.

“It was the first thing that popped into my head!” You laughed nervously. “I’m sure I’ll be fine. How hard could it be?” You shrugged.

“You hardly even know how to get on a horse.” She said matter of factly.

“Let’s just find something for me to wear.” You started searching through the closet. “I can just watch how he does it and mimic him.” You smiled.

“Wow, solid plan.” She said sarcastically and rolled her eyes.

“It’s not like it will ruin the date!” You laughed.

“You’re right, you’re right.” She giggled. “How about this?” She pulled out a dress you had only worn once to an event. “You looked like princess in this!” She held up to your body and admired it.

“You think so?” You asked and held the dress to yourself. You did a small twirl for your sister and she clapped excitedly.

“This is the one!” She clasped her hands together and sighed dreamily at the dress.

You looked at yourself in the mirror and smiled. “I think so, too.”

“It’s getting late!” Your sister said noticing how dark it had gotten. “We should both be getting to bed.”

“Yes, we don’t want to be tired tomorrow.” Your heart started to pick up speed just thinking about it. “Also, thank you for that push. This wouldn’t be happening if it weren’t for you.” You hugged her and she hugged you back.

“Sister, you did that on your own!” She pulled away but kept her hands on your shoulders. “You’re braver than you think.”

“Thank you.” You giggled shyly.

Your sister made her way towards your door. You wished each other luck and she exited the room. You didn’t want to start getting nervous again so you quickly got ready for bed. Before closing your eyes you glanced over at the dress that was now hanging up and ready for tomorrow. You sighed happily and let sleep overtake you.

The next morning you were awoken by your sister rushing you to get up. She wanted to eat breakfast quickly and then be the one to do your hair and makeup.

“You never told me what you and Prince Thor are doing, Sister.” You looked at her reflection in the mirror. She was currently putting up your hair.

“Prince Thor is taking me stargazing tonight.” Her face lit up and it made you smile.

“How romantic!” You sighed dreamily.

“I know, I’m so excited!” She bounced a little out of excitement.

“Ow, be careful not to pull my hair!” You giggled.

“I’m sorry!” After a few more minutes she was finished. “What do you think?”

You turned to look at yourself in the mirror and blush spread across your face. “I love it!” You smiled. “Thank you!”

“Prince Loki is going to be all over you!” She started to tease.

“What?!” You face grew even more red. “That’s not…” you trailed off nervously just wanting the conversation to end now.

“I’m teasing you!” She laughed and patted your shoulder. “If he touches you in any way you don’t like just cut his hands off.” She shrugged.

“I can’t do that!” Your eyes widened at her words.

“Then I will!” She smirked and put her hands on her hips.

“H-he wouldn’t do that!” You sputtered.

“You’re right.” She gathered your makeup. “You know I would do it if he did, though.”

“I know you would.” You rolled your eyes.

“Be still so I don’t mess this up!” She demanded.

It felt like forever but your makeup was finally done. You put on your dress with your sister’s help and spun around showing off the dress.

You felt so beautiful. It’s not everyday you felt like this and it gave you confidence.

“Almost perfect!” Your sister cheered.

You turned to her confused. “Almost?” You asked. “Am I missing something?”

“I’ll be right back!” She rushed out of the room still leaving you confused.

You took this time to admire yourself more. You hoped Prince Loki liked your dress as much as you. A bashful smile came to your face as you pictured him in your head. His eyes wide, mouth agape, speechless. The thought made your tummy feel like it had butterflies. Your thoughts were suddenly interrupted by your sister bursting back into your room. The object she brought back with her was carefully placed in your head. It was a cute little flower crown.

“You look like a flower princess!” She squealed and you giggled.

“Thank you!” You both hugged.

“I think it’s time for you to meet Prince Charming!” She winked at you.

“Already?!” You started to panic.

“Relax!” she laughed. “I’ll walk you there.”

You calmed down a bit and nodded. “Okay.”

“Come on!” She linked her arm with yours, mostly so you wouldn’t run away, and escorted you towards the stables.

When you got there you could see Prince Loki has already arrived. He was petting one of the horses on the nose and muttering things to it. He was standing there in all his princely glory and it suddenly made you feel unworthy. Your sister noticed your change in attitude and stopped causing you to stop with her.

“You can do this! I believe in you, Sister!” She cheered and you nodded. “Look, if it doesn’t end up going well it’s not the end of the world. If he doesn’t share your feelings then it is his loss.” She gave you a soft smile.

You smiled and nodded back. “Yeah!” You cheered trying to sound more confident.

“That’s the spirit! Go get him!” With that she shoved you in his direction.

When you reached him you opened your mouth to say his name but nothing came out. You turned to your sister for help and she motioned her hands in a ‘go on’ manner. You gulped and turned back to to the man in front of you. “Prince Loki?” Your voice came out shaky and you mentally scolded yourself.

Loki’s face lit up with a smile when heard your voice. He felt his heart start to flutter in his chest as he took in the sight of you. “You look lovely.” He took your hand and bowed to kiss it.

“Thank you.” While he wasn’t looking you turned to find your sister gone. You started panicking on the inside and hoped it wasn’t obvious.

Loki straightened himself looking you over again. “I like this.” He brushed his fingers over the flower crown on your head.

“Oh, that was my sister’s silly idea.” You said trying to sound as casual as possible.

“I quite like it.” He smiled. “Are you ready to go?” He asked and offered you his hand.

“Yes.” You smiled back and took his hand. He walked you over to one of the horses he saddled up and helped you up. At least you didn’t have to embarrass yourself now.

After he was done making sure you were safely on your horse, Loki got on his own. He slightly kicked his horse on its side making it walk forward. You did the same and felt pride when your horse complied. ‘Off to a good start!’ You though to yourself proudly.
