A Royal Romance

Chapter 1- Life In London

24th July 1981

I arrived in London 3 months ago and started Cambridge University straight away, I am studying Medicine just like my father did, I enjoy it very much everyone here couldn't be nicer and I'm only an hour away from my grandparents house. My older cousin Cayla also studies here so I'm not all alone, Cayla is very good friends with Lady Diana Spencer who is the fiancé of the Prince of Wales, so she is always invited to Royal occasions (which I'm very jealous of) and she is always invited to the Royal weddings. Cayla recently started dating Prince Andrew, and might I say they are very suited together, he is always pampering her with gifts and love, if only I had that... Although no engagement for the two has came out, I can see another Royal Wedding happening in the near future with the two of them, I can't even begin to imagine what it will be like to have a Princess as a cousin. 

My love life on the other hand isn't very up to date, however I have been asked on dates by the Student body president Arthur Anderson, the elite football player Atkins Ford and many other students but even though they are all charming and lovely, they're just not my type, however Prince Andrew's younger brother Prince Edward is my type. The first time I seen Prince Edward was on Tv and he was doing an interview about Diana and Charles' engagement, and he looked so handsome but of course he is royalty and the only way Cayla met Andrew was through Diana and Charles, even though Cayla could introduce me to him I don't think that will ever happen as I'm not engaged, married nor dating a Royal member of the family. 

Prince Charles and Lady Diana are getting married in 5 days, and I can't wait to watch it, I am actually going to see Cayla today as I've not seen her in forever as she is studying in another part of the University and has her own house in London. I walked into the heart of London and got a taxi from Oxford out to where she stays, I arrived at her house and she ran out to see me I leaped onto her as she is my favorite cousin and she always makes sure I'm okay and of course because I haven't seen her in a while. I walked into her house and there were dresses everywhere and sitting out in the garden was Lady Diana Spencer, my eyes widened and out came all sorts of words,

"Oh no, she..she...I can't go out there I will faint Cayla"

"Oh stop get yourself out there and meet her, she has a little surprise for you as-well"

Cayla said with an exciting voice. I walked out and she stood up and pulled me in for a hug, I couldn't believe I was hugging the future Princess of Wales. I bowed to her and we sat down, the tree's were flowing softly as the wind was breezing, blowing my hair slightly over my shoulder. "Well as you know its my wedding on Wednesday and Cayla was telling me that you were here alone so I was thinking, if your free but if not its totally fine, but um I was just going to ask if you'd like to attend my wedding? And I don't mean just sitting in the audience I mean sitting in the top where The Queen and the rest of the Royals will be?". You could have picked me up off the floor, Diana Spencer, future Queen and Princess of Wales has asked me, a nobody, to attend her Royal wedding, a soft tear struck down my cheek as i wrapped my arms around her, "Of course, I'd love to, thank you so much" I weeped with a happy tone. Lady Diana held me a white box and inside was a piece of card with my seat number, a blue floral dress and a blue clutch bag. 

I arrived back at my apartment with my stuff and plopped down on the couch looking up to the blue sky with a huge smile on my face, I couldn't believe that me, an outsider to society, a social reject and a loser is good enough to be invited to a Royal Wedding. I called my mom later that night and told her and all my friends too, I got ready and called Cayla to see if she wanted to go for a walk round Buckingham Palace, the summer air was breezing over my shoulder and the sun was burning my pale skin. We sat at the fountain looking onto the Palace when we noticed one of the curtains moving, we looked to see who it was but we couldn't see that clearly.

"So how's you and Andrew?" I asked Cayla whilst drinking my coffee

"Yes were perfect thank you, him and Edward are actually in there right now, I'm seeing him tomorrow though as he was busy today" she said smiling.

Ugh Prince Edward, my dream man, I couldn't help but think of what will happen if I see him at the Wedding, I will freak out big time. We walked home and said our goodbyes, I got in and had a shower and went straight to bed as I was up very early in the morning.
