Nobody Knows// Ross Lynch

twenty six

The day had finally come. The princess would finally be able to go on her dream date with her first ever boyfriend, who was just waiting for her down the hall, nibbling at his short finger nails from his nerves. She kept the door slightly open for him, and also because her parents were gossiping about her extremely loud from the other end of the hall.

Things had been tense around the castle after the fight with her father last night. Flora had been avoiding eye contact with everyone all day, and Sofia had been cooped up in her room all day, struggling to face her daughter. Lorena had felt like nobody wanted to be around each other, and it was all her fault. She didn't know how she could've possibly let things go so bad, and wondered just how possible it was for things to get 10x worse since her father's return.

She hated the thought of going back there and speaking to any of them, but she knew she had to at some point. But for now, she was going to try her hardest to have a great time with Ross later.

"Was she not seeing that boy from the DeLeon family? What happened with that?" Her father snapped, slamming his red fist down to the nightstand.

"I do not know, Felipe! Maybe if you were spending more time around here lately you would know more about what goes on in her life," Princess Sofia fired back, crossing her arms to her chest and sitting down on their perfectly made gold bed.

"You have been here all this time and know nothing more than I do. What is your excuse, Sofia?"

Lorena tried to put on her cream pearls without thinking about what was going on through her parents mind too much. She dropped the necklace on the floor, cursing at herself under her breath for almost breaking them. She placed a hand on her cheek, still in pain and slightly red from her father's touch yesterday. Lorena looked at herself in the mirror, examining just how hard her father had hit her, and dabbed a few more brushes of foundation over it.

She shook her head at her inability to just pay attention to what needed to be done, and that was getting ready for her dream date. Her green painted fingernails clutched her door, opening it a little bit more while peaking her head out to take a look at her blonde haired boyfriend.

Ross was now tapping his fingers along the side of the railing, almost looking like he enjoying the rhythm of a song in his head.

"Ross..." She whispered out to him, loud enough to make his head snap up in her direction. His eyes fell down to her body, admiring everything about her at the moment. The way her curly hair fell perfectly over her shoulders, how her yellow dress hugged each curve on her body, and how even though much of her legs were covered, she was still showing just the right amount of skin to make him swoon.

His feet stepped forward for him, causing him to stumble on his feet as well as his next few words. "Lori- I- Wow."

He couldn't stop himself from walking right over to her and planting a warm kiss to her lips, causing her to curl her lips up into a huge smile. "Ross," She repeated again, this time giggling and pulling him into her room by his collar.

Ross wore a simple tux, with his blouse opened just a bit to reveal some skin underneath. Lorena loved this look on him, I mean who wouldn't? He was an absolute dream.

The ex-musician kept kissing her, planting a few pecks down her neck and even on her fingers as he took ahold of them into his own. "You look so beautiful, Lori. I'm so excited," He geeked, kissing her one last time on her forehead.

Just before her cheeks were starting to hurt from smiling so much, she looked down in a small frown, remembering what was going on just a few doors down. Ross grazed his fingers again her chin, lifting up her gaze and placing it right on his eyes. "What's wrong, princess?"
