This is my first "The Princess and the Frog" story! Enjoy!

~Our Story Begins…~

Two stars.

That is the beginning of this story.

Two of the brightest stars in the sky shone above the mysteriously wonderful city of New Orleans. Like a spotlight in the sky, the only thing seen in the night was a certain apartment building. Inside, a woman was telling her daughter a bedtime story.

"… and then the prince begged the beautiful princess 'Oh please princess! Just one kiss will break the spell.'" she said, her daughter's eyes wide with anticipation. Though she heard this story many times before, she was always excited about the ending. "The princess kissed the frog prince, and he turned into a handsome prince. And they lived happily ever after. The end." She closed the book. "Okay, bedtime, baby cakes."

"Aw, one more story, please? Daddy…?" She turned to her father, who was listening to the story on the other side of the room, for support.

"Sorry, Princess. You heard your mother. Bed." He charged over to the other side of the room and scooped his daughter up in his arms. He put his daughter into bed and tugged her in. He kissed her chastely on her cheek and said, "Goodnight, Evangeline."

"Night, Daddy."

"Goodnight, baby cakes." Her mother pulled the covers over her daughter a little more and kissed her goodnight. "See ya in the morning." she softly whispered. Both parents left the room quietly, hand-in-hand.

"So," her husband wrapped his arms around his wife. "when do you think we should tell her the real story?"

"You mean our story?" He laughed. "I don't know? Do you think she'll believe us?"

"She has faith in us as her loving parents, no? I think anytime would be good, now. Once she's older, she won't believe anything that seems so childish and silly."

"True." She kissed her husband. "Now, it's about time we go to bed, too."

When she pulled away from her husband, he whined. "Aw! I don't get anymore?"

She patted his shoulder. "Maybe later."

Meanwhile, in Evangeline's room, a shadow loomed over the snoozing little girl. Its eyes were glowing with hunger and his claws urged to try to grab at her throat. As they reached for it, she began to stir and the shadow retracted at the last minute, leaving to return to its master.

This is my first Disney story, so I hope some of those Disney fans or "The Princess and the Frog" fans like it!
