His Worst Mistake

Old man...You don't like kids?

Troy pretended to be asleep for the rest of the car ride to the Palace. Margot noticing the change in route figured it made sense to just go to the Palace directly, instead of making multiple trips. Reaching the Prince's Palace, Margot stepped out and she was met with 3 ladies who she assumed were attendants provided by the Palace. Introducing themselves, Margot was right. 

Suddenly the Prince was awake. She heard him clear his throat behind her. She turned to the Prince to curtesy him goodbye as he walked into the Palace. She followed after him with her attendants following closely behind her. She did not need the whole cliche 'all the servants of the Palace come down to greet her' arrangement. She'd been here multiple times already. she knew the Prince since she was little and it seems the reason why her Pa always brought her to 'golf' with his 'favourite friend' the King, was to familiarise both the Royal family and Margot with themselves.

As she entered her 'living quarters' which was for some reason connected to Troy's, Margot relaxed. She instructed her bodyguards to make a trip to her dorm room to clear it out and move all her belongings to the Palace. In the safety of the Palace, her bodyguards did not hesitate. Troy had also assigned two of his bodyguards to watch Margot secretly, so they were not worried. Margot looked around her room and quickly dished out instructions to her  attendants. She dished out a list of what she needed to another and told another to please run her a bath. She would of course take another scented one before getting ready for the party, but she needed one now. She asked her last attendant to request some food from the kitchen. Anything that would not bloat her too much. 

Margot sat on her bed and took her phone out of her pocket. She put through a FaceTime call to her friends and as she expected, they all picked on the first ring. 

M: Hi guys!!! Margot said with an awkward tone.

The other girls just stared at her for a moment. Then there was chaos. 

V: omg omg omg. Did you seeee how HE pulled her to him????? Margottttttttttttt

B: Yasssssss!!!!!!!!!! Margot tell me we're invited!!!! Tell me we're invited!!!

D: Guyyysssssssssssss. The way he calls her... "Princess". Dalles tried her best Troy imitation. 

That gained another squeal from all the girls. Margot just sat with an awkward smile on her face.

M: Guys. Silence. Yes, you're invited. Chaos erupted again. 

D: What do we wear??? Ommmgg it's such short notice.

B: We have to go shopping before the shops closeeee😭😭😭 

There was the rustling of clothes and then the jingle of keys coming from Vanora's end. A moment later Vanora's slim face popped up on the screen again. 

V: Guys I'll start the car now. Be out of your rooms and at the dorm parking lot in 5. 

Soon all Margot could see were thongs and thermal leggings being pulled up long legs. She and her friends never went shopping in anything other than leggings. Especially if it was dresses, it made the entire fitting process easier. 

B: Margot I know you're at the Palace. Your background screams so!!!! 

M: Mhm. You're right. Don't worry. Just get your dresses and then come straight here. I and the Prince are wearing Green and Teal so please choose other colors. 

D,V,B: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Omg that's so romantiiiiiiiiiic. 

Margot could picture the girls jumping. She sighed.
