I woke up to the sound of my maids this morning. It was still quite early, I didn't understand how my maids could make so much noise but I was forever grateful for their acceptance and dedication to taking care of me and my family.

I rolled out of bed with a yawn. I ran my fingers through my hair tiredly as I dangled my feet over the side of my bed. I slipped on my cute little blue bunny slippers that I refused to let anyone touch.

My white pyjamas with gold accents were wrinkled and folded in some spots from the long night of sleep I got. I looked down to see my black sleep mask on the side of my bed, I tossed and turned so much it was almost impossible for me to keep it on my face.

I stood up and walked over to my large windows. The glass doors were in the middle of large windows with no curtains so the sunlight shone through whenever I looked outside. It was a bit disturbing in the morning but i must be honest it was always soothing and beautiful.

I walked over to the doors and turned the handle and pushed doors open. My small frame was hit by fresh air from outside as I walked onto my balcony. The air smelt amazing.

I stared at the pink and yellow sky as the sun rose. After a few moments I returned inside and closed the doors behind me. I walked over to my large wooden wardrobe and opened it.

I observed my clothing with a critical eye. There was a variety of different colours and different clothes for specific occasions. It was almost tiring how much my wardrobe changed due to special events.

I noted that i didn't have anything going in particular today so i picked out a white button up shirt with some blue jeans. Even though I had nothing to do I still found that button up shirts we're comfortable and appropriate.

I then turned to my rather messed up bed but I shrugged. I walked into my bathroom and studied my appearance in the mirror. My dirty blonde hair was all messy and curly which I thought looked alright. My fair skin was nice and clear and smooth. My dark green eyes shone brightly and I smiled a bit.

I grabbed a small brush and cleaned up my hair a bit before fixing anything else. I straightened my shirt a bit and washed my face to make sure I looked proper enough. I then walked back over to my wardrobe and I grabbed a navy blue tie. I quickly did the trinity knot and then walked out of my room.

I began to walk down the royal staircase with velvet carpeting along the wooden floors. Perhaps not many people would have been used to this living style but this is my home. And I love it.

I made my way to the dining room, we had one for guests and one for us on "normal" days. Of course normal isn't really normal. We just don't have company which is always refreshing I suppose.

I walked over to our family table and I sat down. I rang the small bell that signified I was ready for breakfast. As alway, my mother and father were not attending this morning's meal. They were often too busy to actually eat with me. They usually just ate in their office while they attended to their kingly and queenly duties.

I usually went where I wanted in the palace and I always tried to entertain myself with random things to do around the palace. I wished I had an actual friend so I could spend my time with them. Of course the maids were nice company but they were being paid to stay with me which seemed unsettling.

Soon the royal chef brought me eggs benedict with an assortment of bacon and fruit. I ate the scrumptious meal rather quickly and then I excused myself. I began to walk back into my room but as i did i was called into my father and mothers office which came as a huge surprise to me.
