"Good Morning darling, did you sleep okay?" My mother said as I slowly walked into the dining room dragging my feet behind me.

"Morning mum, I slept alright thanks." I reply taking a seat in front of a plate of blueberry pancakes.

I swear if I could live off of pancakes and watermelon I would, there so good!!!

"So it's Sunday, as you know which means we have a big family dinner and I have invited William to join us." She continue to tell me. "He's eventually gonna be apart of our family so we'll have to start getting used to having another face at the table."

"Sadly" I muttered under my breath

"What was that darling?" She said lifting her head to look at me.

"Oh yay so much fun." I say in a super sarcastic tone which I think made her really confused.  "Also Jasmine asked if I wanted to go surfing after breakfast, can I go?" I asked shoving another mouthful of pancakes into my mouth and giving her that look.

"Well since it's the weekend, yes I guess you can go." Mother replied with a cheeky tone. "But you can't forget your father is getting home at 4:30 and dinner is at 5:00 so be back before o'clock ." She continued

"Thank you Mamma, i love you."  I say whilst pushing my plate half eaten plate of food away from me and racing up the spiral staircases that lead to my room.

My dad would freak if he found out that I went to a public beach. He says that it's to much exposure to the public and that I could get hurt out in the real world with no one to protect me. But I can protect myself, I don't need anybody.

Plus nothing bad has ever happened to me and I highly doubt anything will. It's not like im the queen or anything.

I grabbed out my favourite black and blue bikini and slipped into it. I ran back down the stairs to grab a towel off of Roselyn and put it in my bag, I quickly filled up a water bottle and went back upstairs.

After I finished getting ready I headed out into the courtyard to where the driver was waiting to help me tie my surf board to the roof of my car. I threw my tote bag onto the passenger seat and slid into the drivers seat of my car. As i drove towards the beach I couldn't help but think about the dinner and how awful it was going to be but I was excited to go to the beach with my best friend.

...

"Hey honey, your back already?" My mother said with a surprised look on her face. "thought you would stay out there for hours." She continued laughing a little.

"I wish, but remember Father's is coming home today and you told me to be back at 3. I replied trying to dry my hair with a towel.

I headed back up to my room and got changed into my dinner outfit. I put on a short sparkly black dress that ended just above my knees. I quickly dried and straightened my hair then placed a claw clip in my hair to separate it into half up and half down.

I heard the door open which meant that my dad was finally home. It's been 3 weeks since i have seen him so I kinda missed him.

I ran down the stairs, trying not to fall on my face and into the main hall to see him standing there with my Mother and Brother, his bags were sitting behind the 3 of them. He has a lot of stuff.
