In The Life Of A Royal

CHAPTER 3

Eleanor leaves and
Violet just looks out the window.
It's a rainy day outside and she decides to sneak out to the small park in the village to meet Isabella and Theodore
She gets up and quietly closes her door behind her.
She can hear her father shouting for Eleanor to hurry up.

Father: Eleanor! 1 minute!

Eleanor: Coming, Father!

Violet quietly walks into the Bathrooms, Lavatories and Garderobes Hall.
She whispers to herself.

Violet: why did we have to have such a big palace.

She walks down the stairs close to the great Hall and is stopped by one of the maids.

Maid: Princess Violet, I thought your father told you to go to your room?.

Violet: shh!! Please don't tell them I'm out here!
I just want to go to the village! I promise I'll be back!

Maid:I can get fired for keeping secrets Princess!

Violet: Not if they don't know!

The maid nods and carries on with what she's doing.
Violet walks out the palace door and the guards open the gates.
She walks to the village and tries to hide her appearance.

Isabella: Lottie! Over here!

Violet walks to them.

Theodore: I thought you were trapped in your bed chambers?

Violet: I am, my parents don't have a clue that I'm here.

Isabella: then it was a bad idea coming to the village! The Press is everywhere!

Violet: Oh for goodness sake, I forgot about the press!

They run to an alleyway where press are gathering around what looks like a boyband.

Isbella: That's them!

Violet: okay, and?

Isabella: Come on!

Isabella walks with them to the boys.

Press: Princess Violet! Princess Isabella! Prince Theodore! What a sight!

Y/N: Excuse me sir, might you not take any photos of me? My parents aren't supposed to know im here.

The press nod but continue.

Y/N: Watch that be all over the news "Oh, Princess Violet has decided to run away" or some shit.

Isabella: Forget it Lottie they never listen.

Violet: It's a good thing my father is the king.
He'd have them put in the dungeon.

The press immediately look at her and stop taking photos.

Press: We're so sorry for bothering you Princess!

They walk past the press and the boys just continue to stare.

Violet: God, i hate it when people stare at me and don't say anything.

She looks at the boys.

Violet: If you want an autograph or picture just ask.

Daniel: Oh no, we don't!

Jonah: We're-

Violet: I don't know your names and I don't want to know your names.

Zach: Well, you're nice ain't ya.

Violet: I don't have the time or energy to sink to your level.
You have a nice day though.

Isabella: Lottie!
Sorry, about her!
My name is Isabella.
These are my best friends Theodore and Violet.

Jonah: It's nice to meet you.

Theodore notices Violet Royal Family.

Theodore: Nice chat, but Lottie! We gotta run! Your father is here!

Violet: SHOOT!

They start running.

Jack: Well that was weird.

The King exits the Royal Car and press surround him.

King: No pictures today peasants.

He looks at the kids running.

King: is that..
King: Violet!!

They stop running.

Violet: Hes seen me.

Isabella: Hide behind me!

Violet croutches behind Isabella.

Isabella: Oh, Hi King Charles!

King: Princess Isabella, I know you're hiding my daughter!
She is not supposed to be here.
Violet get in the car right this instance

Violet: make me.

Theodore: Lottie, now is not the time to fuck up.
Your father could send you to boarding school way earlier than anticipated.

Violet: True, plus im coming to that concert tomorrow Bella.

Isabella: Ooo! Can't wait!

Violet walks to her father who pushes her into the car and hits her as she sits down.

King: Don't you dare disobey me Violet!!

Violet: I'm sorry!

King: Do you have ANY idea what sort of an idiot you made me look like??

Violet: I didn't mean to Father!

King: Do you want to eat??!!

Violet: I'm really-

King: I don't want to hear another word.

He leaves to go to the shop to get what he came for.

Violet starts to cry.

Isabella and Theodore run to the car.

Theodore: Lottie that was-

Isabella: What's the matter?.

Violet: nothing *she sniffles*
I'm just being silly..

Theodore: No, no! You never cry!!

Isabella: Yeah! Especially when someone shouts at you!

Violet looks at the floor.

Theodore: what happened?

Violet: he hit me.

Isabella: What?!! *she shouts making everyone look their way*

Theodore: Bella, shh.

He smiles at everyone.

Violet sees her father coming back.

Violet: guys, you better go!

Theodore looks at her.

Theodore: what if he hurts you again.

Violet: it's fine.

Isabella: No, its not.

King: Prince Theodore, Princess Isabella! I thought you would've started going home by now!

Theodore: No, sir. We were actually just about to come and ask if you would give us a ride.

King: why of course!

They get into the car.
The palace car drives to Isabella's Palace and then to Theodore's.
Then back to the Maddon's Palace.

Violet runs upstairs before she gets screamed at.
She goes to her room and gets ready for bed without food.
She lies down hoping tomorrow may be a better day.
