The kingdom was abuzz with the news of the ball. It was time for Prince James Tiberius Kirk to marry, and this was an event for him to meet every woman the kingdom had to offer. Naturally he was against the idea, he preferred the freedom he had in his private life. He enjoyed the freedom to ride out into the night and watch the sky, oh how the prince dreamed of touching the stars.

As he sat upon the throne with his mother, the widowed queen, he let out a sigh. At one time, she was the most beloved queen, but after the death of the king she found herself with many lovers, and very publicly handled each one. It was safe to say that the kingdom did not approve of the queen’s actions, or the of how each man treated the prince. None of them were worthy of living in the castle.

“Son, it won’t be as bad as you are making out to be” She said, looking at him then around the main hall. Servants were working hard to prep the tables, the dance floor, the music, and the food. It was going to be the event of the year.

“Whatever say Mother.” He responded and stood to his feet. “Father never had to do this to meet you. He was able to choose when he was ready” He said and she scoffed.

“It was a different time. And it is time for you to take the throne. To do so you need a wife, and a wife you shall pick!” She said and gave him a glare. The glare made a chill of fear run down his back. As a child, when he was looked at with such contempt a boyfriend would normally follow it up with a paddle, or whip. He let out a sigh and nodded to her.

“Yes mother, I shall” He said and looked at to the doors as they opened, his tailor had arrived. “Excuse me mother, I have a ball to dress for” He said and followed the man to his quarters.

Across the Kingdom sat yourself. You have lived a quaint life. It was far from challenging. Your father had made sure of that. Leonard McCoy was the hardest working doctor the town had ever seen. He was also the most loved the town had ever had. You were his pride and joy, and he did everything to make sure you were comfortable as you grew up, especially after your mother had left you both when you were young. When the news of the ball made its way to your household, you were both uninterested; your tutor though, she was very excited.

“Dr. McCoy! A young woman like your daughter should go to experience the ball. She may even be good enough for the prince to wish to marry her! Lord knows she is smart enough, and well cultured.” Nyota Uhura said and you giggled from your desk in front of the living room window.

“Like hell she needs to go! Especially if that prince is looking for a wife. Princes are raised to be charming, not loyal or honest!” He exclaimed and Nyota rolled her eyes. She was like a mother. She cared for you, your father, and odd neighbor Mr. Spock. There was a rumor that Nyota and Mr. Spock were in love, but whenever you would bring it up to her she would scoff and change the subject.

“Leonard. That young woman in there is almost of marrying age! The whole kingdom is invited, Mr. Spock has even asked me to accompany him to the castle to observe the festivities.” She said and stood tall, giving your father a look of determination. He would give in.

“So, what you’re saying is that I could go and make sure the prince keeps his royal hands to himself?” He asked and she nodded.

“That is correct Doctor. You could keep your little angel perfectly safe.” She said with a smile and Leonard looked to you. He raised a brow and then sighed.

“Alright, alright. I trust you will get her ready? A young lady needs a woman to help prepare for a ball” He said, his voice soft. He meant to say that a girl needed her mother, but you both know it was better that Uhura did it anyways.

“Absolutely! Y/N! Grab your coat, we have a dress to pick out.” She beamed and you scurried to the door and slid into your coat. When Ms. Uhura told you to do something, you listened.

~~

The day had finally come. The main hall was absolutely exquisite, there was royal blue fabric, blue flowers, and other deep blue décor accompanied with gold accents. Prince Kirk walked along the hall, looking around in amazement; his mother had gone above and beyond with this ball. Before his mother would put forward effort, but only out of obligation to her title. It seemed that she truly cared about this one though, and it was nice.

He wore a cold pale blue jacket with gold embellishments, as well as blue shirt, and high wasted black trousers. He requested the attire would be inspired by his father’s wedding attire. His tailor did not disappoint. His hands ran along the back of the chairs as he made his way to the throne. People would be arriving soon, and he was expected to greet each family with kindness and excitement for the festivities.

~~

You were among those who could make the journey to the castle. The line of carriages making their way to the castle was enough to overwhelm you. Nyota seemed to noticed and she took your gloved hand into hers.

“Sweetheart, don’t be nervous. There are no expectations with this evening, other than to have the time of your life.” She said and flashed you an assuring smile.

“I will try my hardest.” You said with a smile and she nodded then looked across the carriage to your father and Mr. Spock.

“Y/N, if you don’t like the ball we can go home. But, Nyota is right, you should try to enjoy the night” Your father said and Mr. Spock looked at you.

“All that I have heard about events like this has been positive. I am sure you will find something to hold your interest” He said and you smiled bright.

“Thank you, Mr. Spock. Will you and Ms. Uhura be dancing this evening?” You asked and giggled as a blush crept across his cheeks and Nyota looked at you.

“Now don’t be crude young woman” She said and you stopped your giggling.

“Yes Ma’am.” You nodded and blinked as the carriage stopped at the stairs leading into the castle. “It’s time. Father, try not to be too grumpy” You said and smiled. He chuckled and nodded, leaning over to kiss your forehead before stepping out of the carriage before helping you out. You looked to Nyota who had her arm hooked with Mr. Spock’s. She wore a shimmery red ball gown, and black gloves that went passed her elbow. You looked at her gown and then at yours and blinked nervously.

“Y/N, you are the most beautiful girl here. Don’t be nervous.” She whispered and she nodded before your father guided you up the steps. Other people all stopped to look at you as you made your way passed the grand stair case. Your dress was a pale pink, with a gold sash and shimmering fabric along your skirt that caught the candle light just right to make you glow. You tightened your hands around each other as you walked. If it hadn’t been for the elbow length gloves, everyone would be able to see how sweaty your palms had become.

~~

It took a few moments for you to almost make it close enough to the throne to see the queen and prince, but you were not close enough to see details of their faces yet. You looked around and saw a sea of colors. Everyone had dressed so beautifully. Suddenly there was a cough and your father guided you in front of the throne.

“Queen Kirk, Prince Kirk, I introduce you to Y/N McCoy; daughter of Dr. Leonard McCoy.” The man announced and you bobbed with a curtsy. The Queen smiled and looked to your father.

“Dr. McCoy, she has grown beautifully.” She said and your father bowed. He knew her? You looked at him with surprise and he smiled soft. “Jim! Greet the guests!” She sharply whispered and the prince finally looked up to see you. You both sucked in a gasp and you curtsied once again to him. The queen smiled politely. “Son, this is the doctor that tried to save your father. And this is his daughter.” As she spoke the prince never took his eyes off of you.

“It is truly an honor to meet you. Both. To meet you both” He said and then looked to your father, realizing that he had noticed the young prince’s interest in you. “Please enjoy your evening.” He said and you both moved so the next group could be introduced. You finally relaxed and caught your breath.

“My, my, my; If I didn’t know better I would say that Y/N fancies the prince!” Nyota said and made you jump.

“I do not! I was just surprised. Who wears so much gold on their clothes?” You asked and she giggled.

“Apparently the both of you. It is like a match made in heaven” She said. Her words caused your father to pull out a flask.

“Oh look. Just what the doctor ordered.” He grumbled and took a sip. Uhura, Mr. Spock and yourself all chuckled. You looked to an open door across the room. The door led to a dark balcony, and it seemed like the perfect escape.

“Pardon me, I need some air” You rushed out and moved quickly towards the door before anyone could offer to accompany you. Once outside the large doors, you let out a sigh. The cool spring air felt refreshing on your skin as you made your way to the railing. You looked up at the sky and smiled at the twinkling stars. It looked like heavenly glitter along the rich night sky.

“Ah, I’m sorry. I didn’t- “You heard from the door and whipped around to see where the voice came from. The prince stood just passed the threshold of the door and you flashed him a kind smile.

“Don’t apologize. This is your castle. I was just admiring your view of the night sky.” You said and looked from him back to the sky. He watched you, admiration filling his eyes as he watched the moonlight dance across your skin.

“I find myself out here every night doing exactly the same.” He responded and walked over to you, looking at you once again. You kept looking at the sky and then leaned against the railing.

“Your Roya- “You started but were quickly caught off.

“Jim. Someone as beautiful as yourself can call me Jim” He spoke with a smile so tender that it brought a blush on your cheeks.

“Alright. So, Jim, is this ball really to find you a wife?” You asked and tilted our head in curiosity. He chuckled and nodded.

“That is correct. The Queen is ready to give up her place, and I need a bride to step forward as King. So here I am. Are you here looking for a husband?” He asked and you giggled.

“No, I am actually here as a rite of passage. Every young woman should experience a ball, you know” You said and flashed him a flirty smile, which caused him to smirk in response.

“Ah, I do know. Now, tell me about your interest in the stars.” As he spoke he leaned with you against the rail.

“Ah, well, they are beautiful” You started, looking into his eyes. The sight of the rich blue, and twinkle he had was far better than any night sky. He was captivating. He was perfection. “But some days, I wish I could see them closer. I wish that I could touch them” You said and he stepped closer, considering your eyes.

“Ah, the stars and the heavens don’t compare to your beauty” He said and you gasped at his forwardness, but accept it anyways. You moved closer.

“That cannot be true. My beauty doesn’t hold the mystery that the stars do. My beauty doesn’t inspire adventure like the stars” You countered and he smirked.

“If the adventure meant finding you, it would inspire me everyday” He responded before suddenly pressing forward, his lips firmly touching yours. You gasped as he took your hand, pulling you closer. The movements and the feeling of his lips caused you to melt into the kiss. You returned the kiss shyly at first, but it slowly became more heated. More passionate. You wrapped your arms around his strong shoulders and his arms pulled you closer from around your waist. For several moments, the two of you stayed this way, till you heard a cough from the door. As soon as the sound reached you two, you both broke away to look towards the sound. The cause of the sound was your father, glaring at the both of you.

“I apologize Prince Kirk, but it is time we go” He said and you started to argue but he held up his hand. “I have ordered us an extra carriage, Uhura and Mr. Spock can take the one we brought. Now, Y/N, go to the carriage” He demanded, looking at the prince one more time before rushing towards the front of the castle.

“Doctor, I do not intend on harming your daughter” Jim said, but the Doctor shook his head.

“No, you wouldn’t. But you will die young like your father. A king’s job is to run off to protect his kingdom. I watched your father die. I watched you lose the most important person in your life. I told your mother and watched her break. I do not want that for my daughter. So, I’m sorry your highness, but find another woman to marry.” He said bitterly and stocked off.
