Chapter 15 - Chapter 15 - Christmas Ball

As Angeline is resting inside her room with Uriel looking after the babies, Gabriel is leading the planning and organising of the Christmas Ball. Gabriel decided that they will do another public ball as a celebration for Christmas because this is the season that they should really celebrate with everyone because this is the day the true Saviour was born. Gabriel decided to use the grand dining hall that fits up to 3000 people, and this time, the people will be divided into batches for dinner as each 3000 people will go to eat dinner for 30minutes, and there will be another 30mins preparation for the next batch to eat their dinner, and so on. Gabriel also decided to have professional ballroom dancers to perform first before the dance party, and there will also be contests and games, as it will not just be a ball, but a real party with music as well. Gabriel decided to form a band together with the other angels as Gabriel will play the drums and sing, Michael will play the keyboard or piano, James will play the base guitar and sing, Peter will sing, Jacob will play the lead guitar, Richard will sing, Elizabeth will sing, Raphael, and Catherine will be the MC, Uriel will be one of the judges during the contests and games, Angeline will be just watching as she needs to rest, and Marius will be the photographer. The grandparents and Angeline will look after the newborn twins during the Christmas ball. This time, if anyone wants to dance with one of the angels, they have to get a ticket and form a line and it will also depend on the availability of each angel. If an angel's name is not on the ticket list, it means that he or she is not available to dance with anyone. Gabriel's, Angeline's, and Uriel's names are not on the ticket list for dance, as Gabriel only decided to dance with Princess Charmeine, and the same for Uriel because he wants to make it up to her and prove that he loves her, and then realising this, Michael also did the same as he still loves her despite of what happened in the past because he finally found out that Angeline is not actually married to Uriel when he heard Gabriel and Uriel arguing before in front of Angeline. The three angels tries to ask Angeline for a dance but then she told them that she really needs rest and to look after the babies, just as they told her to do, and then all of them laugh and just sat beside her and look after the newborns as well. Until, the time for Gabriel and the rest to perform, and then Gabriel announced.

Gabriel: Just before we start playing and singing, I would like to call Princess Charmeine here on stage, as this song is the song I would like to dedicate to you, Princess Charmeine. I know how hard it is, and finally realising the truth why we were awakened as angels when the marriage contract of Prince Michael and her went missing, because the contract has been cancelled and I am not going to tell everything as it will take us a lot of time, but to summarise it, Charmeine, I would like to finally take this opportunity to say this and ask; we both know how we care for each other and I know that you already know by now how much I love you, and I have been holding the pain inside whenever I see you with Prince Michael or Zadkiel before when we thought you are married. The reason why I always ask you how you have been, always visiting you, contacting you, or just being with you, and wanting to protect you and save you is because I really care about you and my heart will be in more pain, if I see you crying. I cannot live without you, I want to be yours forever, will you be my wife?

Angeline was surprised and started to cry tears of joy as she said yes. They transformed to their angel forms and Prince Gabriel put the engagement ring on Princess Charmeine's ring finger and Prince Gabriel started singing as he went to his position to sit and play the drums as he looks at Princess Charmeine smiling at her. Raphael took a chair for Charmeine to sit beside Gabriel. Michael, though he is hurting inside, he still tries to play without letting anyone know how painful this is for him, and Uriel walked out at the time when Princess Charmeine accepted Prince Gabriel's marriage proposal. Uriel went to his room crying in pain, regretting his past that he should have made sure of everything and thought about it before deciding on something and now, he is about to lose the love of his life. Uriel started shouting, screaming his heart out as he let out the pain he is feeling, and how he regrets not being there for Charmeine when she needed him, and if only he realise it sooner that he should have not left her side to visit his female best friend, and if only he realised and knew before on how painful it must be for Charmeine whenever she sees him so close with his best friend, and now, he got the consequences and he never knew it would be this painful.

Uriel: I should have took good care of her heart, her feelings. I should have asked her and look beyond her eyes and hear beyond her words. I love her so much and all I know and wanted was to be with her, by her side, forever. I was so confident and happy and never thought I will lose her like this to Gabriel. If only I have the power to turn back time, but that would be impossible, even as the strongest angel. No one is allowed, except God. I'm sorry, I am really sorry, Lord that I hurt her, I know I am now forgiven and I deserve this because of what I have done, but please, I don't want to feel this much pain in my heart. I don't even want to forget her or go away from her. I love her so much, even if it hurts this much.

When Gabriel and the others are done with their performance, Raphael asked the newly engaged couple to dance first in the middle before the ballroom dance performance of the professionals. Princess Charmeine is so happy that Prince Gabriel is finally hers and they are now officially a couple known to everyone, and soon to be husband and wife. The twins sent by Lucy to spy on the angels are not allowed inside the palace as they were excited to finally be able to get to the palace because there is a public celebration, and will be able to help their mother find the Mother pearl, but unfortunately, as they tried to enter, there is a hidden barrier, there is no media or reporters or cameramen shooting or capturing the celebration inside as part of the rules and since, an evil heart cannot enter the invisible barrier around the palace, and only Marius is allowed to take photos, and family members as well as the angels are the only allowed to take photos and videos. Gabriel also announced their strategy and plan against their enemies who have finally took action and are spying disguising as teacher and bank teller. Then everyone agreed and cooperated. After the music playing of love dedication to Charmeine, praise and worship, announcement of engagement, and other announcements and plans, Charmeine went to the front and shared her testimony and she also shared some words of inspiration to the people, and also explained the real meaning of Christmas. After that, the professional dancers dance, and then the games and contests, but Uriel is still in his room sulking, so Angeline choose another celebrity from the audience or guests to join the judges. After that, they announced the winners and gave away prizes, as well as consolation prizes as well. After that, it is finally the dance party. Gabriel and Charmeine decided to go out to the garden again to dance there instead, as it is more romantic that way.
