The Secret Ingredient

"Eggs, Flour, Sugar..."

Tiana checked off each item as the restaurant closed for the night. Prince Naveen watched her from his work station, just cleaned, and he noticed the princess try to hide a yawn with a sigh. It had been a long night. Big Daddy and Charlotte had invited their personal guests to dine at Tiana's Palace.

Naveen knew his wife would try to make everything perfect, and he did his best in the kitchen and on the stage. All night, Tiana monitored and managed her restaurant. Now, the suave prince crept up behind her and snatched the list from her hand.
"Naveeeen."

Tiana knew only one person in the world who would interrupt her hard work, her husband.

"Ah, so this is the list," The prince ignored Tiana's glare as he read the inventory out loud.

"Tobasco sauce, mushrooms, peppers..." he paused.

"What?" Tiana rolled her eyes. She knew he was up to something.

"Something is missing," Naveen stated.

"And what would that be?"

Naveen looked around. The bussers and chefs were almost done cleaning, and soon the restaurant would be empty.

"I think it is this way," Naveen explained, while he took a confused Tiana's hand and led her up the staircase. The roof was quiet as the stars twinkled above the couple.

"Naveen," Tiana said in irritation, "We just finished cleanin' up here."

The prince ignored her and gave Louis, who sat on the bayou below the balcony, a subtle cue.

"Is that music?" Tiana asked gently. Naveen only grinned and extended his hand for a dance.

"Alright," Tiana laughed, "but just one."

They took small steps and Naveen gave her a twirl. They were lost in the music.

"Have you found the missing ingredient?" Naveen asked softly.

"I think I might have."

They stopped dancing and as Naveen leaned in for a kiss, Tiana stopped him.

"Hold it. Is your work done?" she asked with a smirk.

"Of course," Naveen laughed. You could never slip anything under his wife's gaze.

"Because if it isn't, you in all sorts of trouble."

"It is done," he promised.

Satisfied, Tiana caressed his cheek and whispered, "I think I found the missin' ingredient."

"I knew you would," Naveen whispered.

As the last employees filed out, and Louis finished his ballad, Tiana and Naveen shared a kiss under the soft glow of Ray and Evangeline.
