Once upon a time, there was a princess called Aurora. One day, she got up early and had her breakfast. She went to meet her friends. They got on well each other.

Her friends and Princess Aurora came across another girl while they  are chatting. She was coming after them. Suddenly they  came up with  a new idea. 

They brought each other round to Princess Aurora's idea and introduced themselves to the new girl. Her name was Goldie. Princess Aurora brought along a nice red apple and they shared it. Unfortunately, Goldie was allergic and fainted. But the girls were brought up to be able to give first aid and shortly brought Goldie around. And off they went for a long walk in the enchanted wood around the castle.

Not far from the castle was a rather mysterious forest. The curious girls went for a walk. They saw a small house, they gave in to their curiosity and they entered the house and were very surprised when they saw 7 beds, 7 chairs, 7 spoons, 7 plates. Aurora realized that they had miraculously found themselves in the house of the seven mighty dwarfs. The small windows gave onto the green forest.

The interested girls set about the exploration of the whole castle.They were wandering in the rooms for  quite a long time  and gradually set aside the idea of dwarfs. Surely it was an awesome palace for the princesses.The fabulous hall was set up for the coming majestic ball. 

Under the effect of this charming hall, the girls all forgot that they didn't turn the lights off in the small house. They thought the dwarves turn back to their small house only to eat, rest and turn in in the evening. That's why, they couldn't meet them then and left the house just to turn out the majestic ball. Aurora and her friends turned around themselves, looked at their appearance and decided to go back to their homes,  and  turn into real princesses before the ball started. There were no guests yet. They all hoped this fabulous ball was going to turn out a dreamlike night. They excitedly left for getting prepared for the ball in the fascinating palace. Goldie said: "Come on girls, we can't miss it."

Arranging to meet in two hours, they all went back to get ready for the evening. Though it was not her first ball, Princess Aurora was feeling intense excitement. Was it for the ball or for something else, she was not sure. In her mind, she was going over all the steps she was supposed to follow as a royal while getting ready. She would not dare to go against the rules, no not again.

They had to make themselves up for the ball. It was essential for Aurora to be enchanting. She was convinced she had to make up for all the balls she had missed. This was her night. Something interesting was about to happen, she was sure of that. She couldn't make out exactly what, but the feeling was there.

She was wondering if her role as a future queen was something she could live up to. Her mother always said: "Don't take on more than you can handle". But nevertheless she somehow felt ready, she felt it was her time to shine. She looked at herself daringly in the mirror and left her room.

The ballroom was glittery and shiny, with an elegant crowd chatting and the royal orchestra playing. Suddenly, everyone went silent. A magical silhouette stood at the staircase and slowly started going down the stairs. "Just like a queen" , "She takes after her mother", "Just look at her" the gathered guests were whispering. They took in every detail of Aurora's beautiful outfit. Suddenly, a handsome prince came towards her and asked her for a dance. The crowd was looking in awe as the lovely couple danced and took up the whole ballroom dance floor.

Aurora was really excited that evening...She had been waiting for that ball like a little  child is waiting for the gift she has always dreamed of. She had worn the dress that her mother had bought her for the occasion snd the ring that her parents had given her for her 18th birthday. She knew how her mother cared about the party, she had organized everything perfectly and Aurora didn't  want to let her down. She was about to leave the room when she heard someone knock at the door. It was her friend Annie, who had a note in her hand. She let her in. Princess Aurora had let her into her secret...Annie was her best friend and her confident and she knew of her love for the prince she had met in the woods one day l while she was taking a horse riding. It was time to go downstairs... Annie opened the door and let her out. As she came into the ballroom her eyes met the blue ones  of a charming boy. She couldn't believe...The boy she had met in the woods was there and was staring at her.

The boy put across the Aurora and helped to put off her coat and they sat at the table.The guests were surprised as Aurora was shining like the sun.The boy gave her the box of present and flowers and the he  promised  to  put out  her book in few days .Aurora was close to tears.

She was so happy she coudn't hide tears from anyone. Her true love was at the ball! This boy was caught by Aurora's beauty and kindlines and he cought her heart long ago too, but she was afraid to tell her mother. She didn't know how her mum would react. Seeing them together, Aurora's mum cought on on their love and gave them her blessing. They got married sonn after and lived happily ever after.
