— "THE UNICORNS FROM   France are extremely rare. The ones that you saw at Hogwarts are Italian. Italy and France have collaborated for years. Since the unicorns hide from us people, we take the Italian ones.", Draco nodded at her words.

"Here is illegal to kill unicorns.", said the boy and Ella nodded.
"Makes sense."

Ella suddendly took a deep breath.
"I-I know that we haven't reached much in this... Relationship, b-but I would really like you to visit France with me, one day.", the Princess' eyes didn't meet his, though her chin was lifted up by Draco once more. He gave her a small smile, making her insecurities fade away.

"One day.", he confirmed, though he silently wondered when that day would've come. As Ella was about to say something, the train stopped suddenly, the compartments started lightly shaking. His eyes left hers, quickly standing up to have a better view of what was happening outside.

"What's happening?", Ella also stood up, her long dress complicating the simple action. She stood beside him in front of the large window in the compartment, and looked at the light shadow that appeared on the snow.

"Horses... Unicorns! It probably is my mom, Draco! We have to get her.", Ella quickly exclaimed, immediately turning back to open the door, to find out that it was locked.

"We can't Ella.", Draco's tired voice said, making Ella become more persistent on opening the door. "Ella!", she turned around as his voice raised.

Her brown eyes looking in his pale ones. "Stop yelling. I c-can't control anything.", the compartment's handle started freezing. "No, no, no. Draco I can't stop it.", Draco started taking slow steps towards her, but the girl stopped him from doing so.

"I don't want to hurt you.", her hands tried to stop his movements, yet ice shot from her hands making the big window freeze.

A knock from the door startled them, making Ella miserably fall in between Draco's arms.
"Your Majesty? It's Pierre, Princess Ella, and I would like to give you something that was given to me from the Queen, your Majesty.", the Princess' eyes widen at his words, and as she wanted to open the door she sighed as it was completely frozen.

"A second, Monsieur Pierre.", she called sweetly. Ella muttered curses under her breath as Draco played with his fingers by the window, not wanting to be fully involved with what was happening.

"Oh my- Draco! Yes!", she exclaimed happily, cupping his cheeks as she placed a kiss on his lips. His eyes widened at the action, the Princess having no time to process what she had done, because if she had, her cheeks would've turned crimson red. A small smirk appeared on his lips as his thoughts wandered off to the make out they had hours ago. All that kissing boosted her confidence, he thought.

"You are the only one that can deal with the ice! You can melt it!", the Princess pointed at the melted corner by the window.

"C'mon.", Draco stood up, huffing. His legs and arms feeling more tired than usual, as the only thing he wanted to do was get some rest. "We'll do it quickly, baby. You just need to collaborate.", the young man placed his hand on top of the freezing door and looked with a small smile how it started to melt as the small golden sparks reached the surface. As the door was completely visible again, Draco sat back down feeling more exhausted than before.

"Thank you.", Ella gave him a small smile and opened the door, revealing a sweaty man who lightly smiled at the feeling of the fresh air hitting his face.
