Princess Umber rolled her eyes. The maid was fusing over her gown, but Umber wanted to wear a tunic to see her father. But of course, he requested she wear a ball gown. At least it was blue and black, and not a stupid pink like all her others.
She heard claws tapping on the black tile and smiled. As quickly as the sound disappeared, her white fox Vixen-Vixi for short- appeared on the seat in front of her. She dismissed the maids to go alert her father she would be there soon. As soon as the door shut behind her, she sat on her bed, and Vixi jumped into her lap, sending the chair flying. Umber let her hand glide across Vixi's coat with a rare smile, and not even a glance at the chair that now rested on the other side of her room.
She heard the clunks of her fathers shoes and sighed, the smile falling off her face. Before he could knock, I call, "Come in!"
Her father came in grinning. "How did you know I was there?"
She rolls her eyes. "Your not exactly silent. I heard you coming."
"I should've known these shoes are too loud for you," He says with a groan. " I'll send for the maids so they can fix your hair."
After that, he leaves.
She sits there in silence waiting for the maids to come scurrying back.
A couple minutes later they appear in the doorway.
"I'm so sorry, Your Majesty, we came as fast as we could." One of the younger maids huffed out.
She gave a short nod. "It's alright. I know it was a last notice."
They thank her and start at her hair.
~~~~AFTER THEY FINISH WITH HER HAIR CAUSE I AM LAZY AF~~~~~
She looks in the mirror, amazed at what they had done. Her long dark hair was braided millions of times (at least it looked like a million times) and had been piled up on her head like a bee hive. They had strung dark blue beads into the braids to match the dress. She had extravagant blue earrings and a matching necklace.
She frowns and the maids panic.
"Y-your Majesty d-did we do something wrong?"
She shakes her head. "No, of course not. It's just... the dress has a deeper dip than I imagined."
"W-well your father insisted on this dress..."
She turns to the maids. "Speaking of my father, please alert him that I will come in a few minutes."
The maids bowed and left the room.
