Coming For The Crown

Four

I take my shower and put on a dress that is soft and very flowy, it had a square neckline with mid length sleeves, it goes down to my feet, It's a plain nude color. It's simple, but one my favorite as it hugs my body. I love to show off my body, I am slender, but I do have weight on my me which is perfect. I chose flats that have a hoop for my ankles, they are a black. I grab a simple gold neckless and a bracelet before leaving. 

I walk to my father's study, it's on the west wing. My room is in the north wing, I quickly walk to the west wing. I see my father standing outside the door looking around, "Father?" I ask he looks at me. He walks closer to me; my hair was still wet. I forgot all about my blow dryer or doing my makeup. I shake my head for no thinking at all. "I didn't know if you were going to join me today or not." Father says with a soft smile, I roll my eyes in respond. 

We walked into his study, which one day will be mine. "Today is not like the other days. I want to talk about relationships." Father states while sitting in his chair behind the desk. "What is there to talk about?" I ask him, he takes a deep breath. Please don't be true, please! "As you know prince Elliot is 21 without a queen nor even a lover. I know you do not like him, but I have noticed something and... I wish for you to marry him." My father says while standing up to come over to me. I stand up for before he gets to me, I shake my head. "No! I love Havery and he loves me!" I turn away from my father, I know it's something you are not supposed to do. I just help it; he wants me to marry someone I hate. Do I still hate him? I mean he warned me about my father, and he is also very good looking. 

I look at back at my father, who is staring at me. "Why can't I marry Havery? Tell me that." I ask while walking over to him.  He takes a deep breath, "I'm not going to tell you all, but his parents found out something and they do not want him as the next king of our kingdom." Father says while trying to figure out how to word it, you could tell by all his pausing. "You could be lying." I state to him. "As the king and your father, do you think I would lie to you?" He says with so much anger in his voice. I never heard hm talk to me this way, he sounds so cold. I have old heard this voice when he is talking to the servants or commanders that wrong him. 

I bow my head, "I'm sorry my king. Plese excuse my mouth." I say while still looking at the floor trying not to cry. Future queens don't cry little things like a voice sounding mean. "I am taking my leave, my king." I lift my head put but do not look at him, I quickly turn away and walk to my room. I am walking in these lonely halls, I let my tears go. I knew Havery won't be here, he leaves after the morning training because he knows that my rule duties take up half the day. I have everyone there for me, yet I feel so lonely. 

I get to my room and open the door; I go straight to my closet and change into some joggers and bra that I usually wear in my room. I come out to see Mia and Ash in the middle of my room, I smile at them then run to them. They put their arms out, I just let everything out. Thess two have seen me through thick and thin. 

After a while, we moved to my bed. I also am in the middle, Ash is on my left side, Mia on my right. Mia has a little more wight on her than us, and to be honest she pulls it off. She is incurable beautiful; anyone would be lucky to have her.  While Ash is the smaller in every way, height and wight. I have two comply different friends, Mia is the mama bear and Ash is the gay uncle. Yes, Ash is very much gay.  

Mia is rubbing my back, while Ash telling me everything is goanna be okay. "H-how did you k-know I could be c-cry." I stutter a few times because I was having a hard time trying to control my feelings. "Elliot told us that you are having a discus with your father, and you might be crying when you come out." Ash says not evening thinking about what he said. Mia hits him, "But don't worry about. We are just happy you are okay." Mia states with her motherly voice. She will be a great mother. 

We stay there for a while; I know they will stay until I'm better even if it means forever. I look outside and see it's almost dark, so we missed lunch and supper and we stayed together for more than 5 hours. I wouldn't care if we stayed like this longer, but we have jobs we have to do. "Guys, you have to go." I say while shaking them sightly, they both look outside and see that it's almost dark. They look back at me, "Are you sure you will be, okay?" Mia asks me with her mother eyes, I nod my head. "If you need us, you know where we are." Ash says with a soft smile, I nod my head again. 

We all get up, I noticed how sift I was. I stretch before walking over to the door to open it for them. I notice that they also stretch, before they follow me. "We love you." Mia says before walking out, Ash looks at me. "Hug?" He asks me, I nod my head. He pulls me in for a hug, before pulling away and leaving. 

I close my door, "Hey!" I hear someone shout. I open my door to see Elliot there with a plate of food. I look him up and down, then at the food. "I figured you and your friends would stay in your room, so I made the kitchen people make sure to leave you a plate." He stats to clear things. Maybe, just maybe, he has changed. 

I smile at him; this is the first I am doing this since I was six. He had shock written all over his face, I take the food and walk back into my room. I noticed how even went to the point of covering it, so nothing would get in it. I walk over to my bed, still smiling, and place the dish on my bed. I take the lid of noticed a note on the food. I gab it and read it, "I know life seems hard, but you will figure out something. You always have. P.S. The Queen told me to write something sweet and the help of your siblings this is what I came up with     -Elliot" I couldn't help giggle at that little note. 

I zone out while eating thinking about what I should do. I could give a month, no two months to see if I could live with him. We will not marry; we just share a house and think a something the closer we get to me becoming Queen and him King of his kingdom. Yes, that's how it will be. I smile at this idea; I will tell father tomorrow.
