Isabella ‘could have danced all night,’ so perfect was this moment, but all too soon the music stopped, and she stood still, wrapped up in Diego’s arms as he leaned down and kissed her.  He sweetly told her she was more beautiful than the stars and moonlight, then led her to a chair and sat her on his lap.  They were so comfortable with each other it was like they had been lifetime companions.<em>So tell me my princess, where do you want to go tomorrow?</em><br/><br/>Belle considered it, wondering if her father was home yet and what his plans would be for tomorrow.  Perhaps he would want a meeting with Diego?  But she had already given him the papers for the deal, so maybe their meetings were over.  At least business meetings.<br/><br/>“Diego,” she sighed, resting her head against his, “I don’t know of anything that could top this night.  It has been so magical.  Anything I can think of seems so mundane.”  Then she thought of something he might enjoy.  “What about horseback riding?  There is a stable just outside of town with acres of fields and woods to ride in.  We could even have a picnic if the weather is not too cool!”  She thought of her father again, because he used to love taking her on picnics when she was younger, and she frowned.<br/><br/>“I think something is bothering my father, Diego.  He still spoils me, of course, since that is what he is best at, but at times he seems so far away, as if we were in two different worlds.”  She looked at Diego seriously.  “When you met with him, did you notice anything, I don’t know, different about him?”  Then she chuckled.  “Of course not, how could you?  You only just met!”<br/><br/><br/>
