We stayed one more night. But now its morning and time to go back to court. I'm not excited, I'm not devastated, I'm just...tired, I guess. I put on a white dress with gold patterns on it, white and gold gloves, and a blue overcoat thing. I have to look good going back to the castle and meeting up with my sister, the future queen of Rome. We go on our horses and ride off.
We finally arrive at the castle and for some reason I feel butterflies in my stomach. I guess I'm nervous to see my sister again. I haven't seen her since I was a child. I hop of my horse and slowly walk to the front door. I stop once I see Francis standing there. "I'm sorry." I mouth. He smiles and puts out his arms telling me to hug him. I let out a huge smile and run to him and hug him. "I love you so much. Please don't ever leave me again." Francis says. "I won't. I promise." I say. We walk inside and I see her standing there. My sister. I don't get why she wanted me at her wedding. She always hated me and was always jealous of me. I don't get why since she is so propper mannered and gorgeous. Everyone loved her, yet she still was always trying to beat me at stuff. She looks so beautiful with her brown hair up, her lips stained red, and wearing a black dress with a gold neck brace type thing. "Hello Mary." She says. "Elizabeth. Its nice to see you again." I say. "You look beautiful. I love the dress. But your going to have to change into a more formal dress for my wedding. Which is tonight by the way." She says. "And so I shall." I say. She gives me a death glare before walking away.
I changed into one of my best dresses. Its white with stars at the bottom. It has a necklace type thing around it. Its very beautiful. I stand there waiting for the wedding to begin. The music turns on and she walks in. She is wearing a black and white puffy dress. Its beautiful, but not quite something I would wear for a wedding. She gives me a quick glance before continuing down the aisle. The ceremony goes by fast and its time for everyone to just talk and dance.
She comes up to me and says "Even on my wedding day you try to look better than me." "I do not try to look better. I am the queen so excuse me for having nice dresses." I say. She stares at me for a second, a bitter look on her face, then says "You got way more than you deserve!" "Really! Mom shipping me off to marry a prince, not being aloud to come home until I'm queen, her never writing to me, never wishing me a happy birthday or congratulations you just got married is more than I deserve! Your pathetic!" I snap. I just can't stand her. "Mom did all that because she loves you. She wants you to be a powerful leader of both Scotland and France. She never loved me. She always saw me as a disappointment." She says. "Here's an idea. Stop trying so hard to be perfect at everything. Maybe you'll actually find someone who loves you." I say. "Oh cause Francis loves you?" She questions. "Yeah, he does! Just get out of my castle, get out of France, and get out of my life!" I yell. People stop and stare at us but I just ignore them. "Fine!" She says and walks away. She grabs her husband and pulls him out. I don't know if they went back to their room or left right then, I don't even care. I'm sick of being the good girl who cares about everyone and puts everyone's needs before mine. From now on I'm looking out for only me!
