Luz POV

I feel like an idiot. Hearing that door slam really threw me off. I quickly finish slipping my shirt on. Whoever opened the door, opened it at the wrong time, if only they had waited like, five more seconds it would've been fine!

Once I had gotten my shirt on, I hurried out of my room. I paused seeing my door frame was now chipped. I quickly shook the thought out of my head and opened the door. I looked over and could see a girl quickly walking off hiding her face. I chased after her.

"Ma'am! Wait!"

This only made the woman go faster, I didn't blame her. She probably thinks I'm mad. I could honestly care less. The amount of times a maid has walked in on me changing is to many times to explain.

I sped up, until the point I was nearly jogging. I reached my hand out grabbing the woman's hand. "Hey!"

The woman froze, her whole body look like she was a sudden statue. "Ma'am I'm not mad, I just wanna talk."

The woman doesn't turn to face me. "I'm so sorry." She says. "I really didn't mean to walk in! I just thought that was my temporary room. I got lost and-"

I let go of her hand adjusting my feet. "Hey, you're fine, no harm done. The worst thing that was hurt was probably my door frame." I joked.

The woman didn't seem to find it funny.

I cleared my throat, stuffing my hands in my pockets.. I pause, recognizing who this was. "You're Amity right? Amity Blight?"

The woman looked away, sheepishly saying, "yeah.. I am."

"Well, I'm sure you know who I am, but let me formally introduce myself. I'm Princess Elswyth Luzura Noceda. But you can call me Luz." I grinned at her.

Amity smiled awkwardly back. "Amity." She said.

A silence fell between us.. It was awkward. I clenched my fists in my pocket. It was something i did in awkward situations. Mom always told me to stop, or at least hide it in public. It made me look threatening.

I cleared my throat. "Um. So.. What are you doing here... In the palace I mean."

Amity shrugs. "Well. I was supposed to go out of town with my parents for a business trip, but my mom struck a deal for me to stay here. I don't know why, I could've stayed at home with my sister."

I didn't really know how to respond.. Therefore, it led to a silence. I guess neither of us really knew what to talk about. I glanced at Amity. Our eyes made contact then Amity quickly glanced away. To be fair, I was just glad the whole changing thing was forgotten.

Finally, I look at her and say, "hey, where's your room, maybe I can help you find it."

Amity looks at me then looks down at her feet. "I.. I uh.. I lost track of the directions." she admitted.

I paused before chuckling. "Well I can't help you find your room if you don't know where it is, now can I?"

Amity looked at me and frowned. She obviously took pride in herself. I hesitated, realizing I might have made her feel useless.

"I didn't mean it in a rude way." I said.

She just shrugged and looked away.

Shoot. Now you've done it.

I pause to think for a minute. "Hey why not I show you to my room?"

Amity stared at me, taken aback, "Oh, no. I'm fine. I've cause enough trouble."

All I can do is grin. "Nah. Not at all. Come on." I took her hand and led her to my bedroom.

I look back at her and she looked like she was about to argue, but she then shut her mouth, accepting whatever I was doing. Made me feel a little trusted.
