Leo and Eleanor ended up taking a tour around the palace in a gloomy mood. Leo brought Eleanor to the palace garden wanting to show off the beautiful scenery there. Eleanor who was still traumatised by the butterfly incident was hesitating whether to stop Leo or not. Upon arriving, Eleanor's mouth dropped at the breath taking scenery.
A huge marble fountain placed in the middle surrounded by a loose gathering of fresh flowers.
Eleanor's foot had lead her closer to the garden as she noticed a garden swing. A young lady in a tiara was swinging on it. The lady stopped swinging and turned around in defense of hearing some footsteps behind of her. Her face brightened up as she saw who was it. "Eleanor!" the young lady yelled while running over to Eleanor. Her Tiara, misplaced, dirt all over her dress while being barefoot.
Eleanor looked at Leo waiting for him to introduce who the young lady was. Leo coughed. "Eleanor this is Princess Royal, Eloise Isabella Kingsley, my little sister" Leo said rolling his eyes. "Eleanor Eleanor!" Eloise yelled tugging on Eleanor's college uniform. Eloise pouted knowing for a fact that Eleanor does not remember her anymore. It has been 6 years since the accident happened.
Eloise smiled as she pulled Eleanor away from Leo. "We'll see you later at dinner big bro!" Eloise yelled as she giggled pulling Eleanor who did not know how to react away. "Bring her back now Eloise!" Leo's voice was heard even when he was far away. Eloise giggled and brought Eleanor into her room.
"I'm sorry your royal highness, but may I ask why you brought me here?" Eleanor asked while looking around. They somehow had similar taste in decorating. "Because I'm excited to get a new sister" Eloise said giving her a 'duh' expression before disappearing into her walk in closet. Eleanor smiled. The royal family does treat her like a family.
"Say, which dress suits me better? This or this one?" Eloise asked, walking out with 2 dresses that was hanging on a hanger. "The red one" both of them said in sync as they looked at each other like soulmates would. "Now which headpiece suits me the most?" Eloise asked again. "No headpiece because headpieces are a pain" Eleanor and Eloise said in sync again as Eleanor's eyes widened.
"I think we are soul mates" Eleanor said as Eloise smiled. "We are!" Eloise yelled tackling Eleanor into a hug.
"We have the same style of clothing and the same bedroom style" Eleanor said looking around again noticing how everything was similar to her room. "You like the Minimalistic but Royal look too?" Eloise said fully pumped up. She wasn't expecting Eleanor to still be the same. Eleanor nodded her head with a bright smile. They were having the same thoughts in their head.
Anthon Harold Kingsley, the 1st prince's son was walking pass Eloise's bedroom having his eyes stuck on his phone. Eloise who had sharp hearings smirked knowing exactly who's footsteps these belongs to. Eloise stood in front of her door and counted to 3 before forcefully pulling Anthon into the room. "Not again!" Anthon cried out trying to escape. "No Anthon listen to aunt Royal" Eloise said trying to calm the kid down.
Anthon who had accepted his faith, rolled his eyes and sat down. "Fine. I'll take it like a man" Anthon said folding his arms and shutting his eyes tight.
"Have you done this before?" Eleanor asked looking at Eloise who had an evil smirk on her face. She looked exactly like Leo when he was being cocky. "A lot of times actually" Eloise said eyes still glued on Anthon who looks like he was about to cry.

Everyone was staring at Anthon on the dinner table. His eyes were watery from the embarrassment he had to deal with it while wearing a dress and a face covered with makeup. "Eloise!" the Queen yelled as Eloise smiled at her and bowed gracefully "Pardon, your majesty?" Eloise said with a mocking tone as the Queen took a deep breath. "Eloise you did it again. We told you Anthon is not a girl" The King said sighing at his childish youngest and only daughter. "Lady Eleanor tried to stop her" Anthon cried out as he ran into Eleanor's arms shocking everyone including the maids. Anthon has always been distant with everyone but here he is hugging Eleanor's waist.
After being seated, everyone was trying to talk to Eleanor as Leo pouted while staring at her talking to everyone else except for him. Leo poked her cheek trying to get her attention. "Leo stop" Eleanor said as Leo pouted even more and folded his arms, sitting like a snob. "Manners Nicholas" the Queen said as Nicholas glared at her and fixed his posture.
"The Queen Dowager has arrived" was announced as everyone stood up giving their respect to the Queen Dowager.
"And who do we have here?" The Queen Dowager smiled looking at Eleanor. "This is Eleanor, grandmother" Leo said as The Queen Dowager walked towards her. "You've grown up to be a beautiful lady, Eleanor" the Queen Dowager said, holding Eleanor's hands.
After taking a seat, the dishes were served as everyone started digging in.

Leo and Eleanor was at the rooftop looking at the sky that was filled with beautiful stars.
"It's bothering me how everyone in the royal family knows who I am way before you introduced me to them. Have we actually met in the past that I can't remember? " Eleanor said eyes fixed on the stars. "It's nothing important Eleanor, you don't have to think about it" Leo said feeling a little hurt that she couldn't remember a thing but it's for the best. "But this place just seems very familiar" Eleanor said looking around at the rooftop when suddenly her head started aching so bad as she fell to the ground, losing her balance. "I told you it's nothing important Eleanor stop thinking about it" Leo said as he sat on the floor, letting Eleanor lean on his chest.
"What is that I can't remember?" Eleanor whispered as she just looked at the sky quietly while being embraced by Leo. For no reason at all, she felt comfortable being in Leo's embrace.
