Hyperactive girl meets prince charming

chapter 4

Jack's Pov

Wow that was harsh, I never saw someone who looked so heartbroken. Tess seemed to have this knack for getting people to feel things, I mean I had never felt guilty before and here I was feeling sorry for a girl who demanded my muffin the first time I met her. I looked at John to find his eyebrows creased, his expression giving away that he was just as caught up on Tess's exit as I was. Though I didn't think her friend had asked the question correctly I was curious, when I asked Dana out and where she wanted to go she had straightaway said somewhere expensive. Whereas when this Tess was asked the exact question she picks...an ice-shop? That she went to every day, they were like complete opposites.

"Come on, I'm hungry" I heard Dana say and I looked at her with confusion, didn't she want to see if her friend was ok? I nodded anyway, suddenly regretting asking her out.

"Prince, if you don't mind I will go after the girl, I will retrieve the other guards and fill them in" he said and I nodded my permission. John must have sensed a good thing about this girl since he was a great judge of character. He did as he said he would before my other guards jogged over to me.

"This is so cool!" I heard Dana whisper excitedly as we got in the limo...

After Meal --> back at school

As the car pulled up back at school I breathed a sigh of relief as I helped Dana out of the car. Though she is the sort of person who would make a brilliant queen due to her grades, attitude and beauty I just couldn't think of her as anything more than a friend. She was only interested in money and fame and I couldn't help but try and hide the cringe that threatened to cover my face every time she tried to talk about how much of a good queen she would make or about our supposed future. As I helped her out the car I heard two sets of laugher behind me, as I turned around I saw both Tess and John coming towards us laughing...John had never laughed like that ever since I met him, he was practically panting from laughing so hard. They both were.

"Why are you covered in ice-cream?" I asked, when they got closer I could see that they were covered head to toe in a variety of different flavoured ice-cream. What the...?

"We had a food fight!" Tess screamed and high-fived with my bodyguard. I was actually feeling jealous that they had such a good time while I had such a sucky one. I like Dana yes, but I would never date her! Compared to Tess she was just...boring.

"How long were you there, we missed class cause we were having so much fun, weren't we Jacky?" Dana asked and I cringed inwardly at the name while it just seemed to amuse Tess no end.

"Jacky, OMG I am so calling you Jacky from now on!" she laughed before hugging John who was taken by surprise but hugged her back with a slight smile.

"Thanks for the ice-cream, if you want to do it again just say!" she shouted and John agreed with a smile. I watched their exchange carefully. I said goodbye to Dana, getting out of a kiss and taking her to her dorm and stayed put with John and my guards as she walked to her dorm, her hips swinging which I think was meant to be for my benefit.

"So how was your night prince?" John asked when they were gone.

"Night from hell, did you know she actually asked me if she would make a good queen. How was yours, you didn't spend like 3 hours in a ice-cream shop did you?" I asked seriously wanting to know what else they got up to. She had the choice of ANYWHERE, yet she chose an ice-cream shop.

"You should get to know her more, she is just...so unpredictable, did you know she actually made the staff to join her while she ate her ice-cream?" he laughed and nodded before saying it was time to retire. He walked me to my dorm which I shared with him and we retired for the day. I couldn't help but think about Tess and what a date like her would be like...I knew it would be a lot more interesting then a date with Dana, yet I knew Dana was the more appropriate choice.
