The Not So Perfect Fairytale

Chapter 5

Mays POV

I woke up in a bed that was not a hospital bed and it was not mine. I looked around and my head started to hurt. All of a sudden a million memories flooded through my head. I had been here before when my mom was a tutor for a boy that was my friend and once I remembered that the memories just kept coming. And I fell back asleep.

After a little while, I woke up and looked around trying to find out where I was. I somehow knew that this was the palace that James lived in and remembered that James was my childhood friend and he was betrothed to me. That's when I remembered that he had kissed me yesterday.

I got out of bed and walked over to my closet where there were clothes that seemed like they would fit me perfectly. I put on a pair of riding pants and a shirt then walked out of the room to where I knew James would be. Without even knocking I walked into his study he looked up and smiled at me.

"I am glad you are awake but how did you know where to find me? Did one of the maids tell you," He said and I smirked a smirk that I used to do whenever I was about to do something fun?

"No, I just knew where to find you stupid now I would like to know something. Is Stella still in the stable and can we go out for a ride please" I said and he looked at me astonished?

"You remembered everything. Yes, of course, we can go for a ride and yes she is still there let's go" He said and smiled he came over and kissed me. I smiled at him.

"One more thing now that you remember me." He said kneeling on one knee. He then pulled out a ring and asked me to marry him. Of course, he did not have to do this since we were already engaged but it was sweet so I said yes and put the ring on and we ran outside to go riding.

Roses POV

I sat there listening to my father and the other king talk along with the prince. And looked out the window to see May and James riding. I wanted to join them so I jumped up and ran over to my dad.

"Can I go riding with May and James please?" I asked and all eyes turned to me. The prince ran over to the window and started crying as he ran out the door of the room. I thought nothing of it and walked out deciding I would go riding no matter what.

May's POV

As I rode Stella around the field I saw someone jump in front of me. I had no time to turn so instead I angled my body and pulled that boy up onto the horse.

"What the hell is wrong with you Max I could have run you over," I said without even thinking about what I was saying he hugged me and I lost my balance falling off the horse and landing on my butt. I then started to feel a bit dicey and I passed out.

I woke up in my bed again and stood up to see the room filled with people. My brother and father were next to my bed while James, Rose, and their father were at the foot of the bed. All of a sudden the window shattered and everyone jumped to the ground as bullets shot into the wall.

After the shooting had stopped I got up and walked over to the wall pulling out a bullet and looking at it in my hand closely. It was a bullet from a machine gun. How did not a single bullet hit someone? I then noticed that the bullets made a pattern on the wall.

"We need to get you all to a safe room please come with me." A guard said as he walked into the room. I looked at him and smiled, grabbing a marker out of his coat pocket and tracing the symbol on the wall.

"I am going out for a bit of air, see you all later," I said, smiling and jumping out the window and running over to a car that was parked behind the barn. I turned off the GPS location and left my phone in the barn so no one could follow me. I then drove off to a place in the woods that no one knew about. I left the car and walked through the woods to a waterfall. I saw a trap on the ground and purposely walked into it.

"No fair you walked in on purpose I can never trick you huh," Taffy said as she jumped out of the tree. Taffy was my best friend. She knew me for a long time and she lived in the woods. She was a very interesting girl. She was a trained assassin that had been trained since she was able to walk but she stopped after she met me. The best part was the Harley Quinn vibe that she gave off.

She had half black half dark pink hair that was in pigtails and her outfit was half and a half too. She was the one that had trained me on how to fight and defend myself. She helped me out of the trap and hugged me.

"You know that it is rude to shoot at an injured person. Next time just leave a note." I said and she looked at me with mock disbelief in her eyes. I smiled at her and she smiled back.

"Oh, I had no idea you were injured and that it was not ok for me to fire at you if you were. Also, I think the note that I left was pretty clear. Did you not read it right" She said smiling. I chuckled and nodded, then her face grew serious.

"Oh and on that note who the hell hurt you." She said and I glanced at the ground. I knew that if I told her she would try to kill him even though he was not my father I still did not want him dead.

"We have a lot to talk about and I will tell you the whole story while we head back to meet my father and brother at the place," I said she looked at me so confused but she still followed me to the car as I started to explain everything.

When we got back she had heard everything and was so amazed by what had happened. I asked her to not tell everyone that she was the one that had just almost killed all of us just so that I could ease them into it a little bit. She had agreed but I had a feeling she was going to tell them anyway because that was just who she was. We walked into the room and she backflipped over to the nearest chair. I went down and sat next to her and just as I was about to open my mouth to tell them who she was.

"Hi, I am the girl that just shoots at all of you. How are you all doing today?" She said and I smacked my forehead. Why did she have to be like this couldn't I have a normal friend?

"Ok she is my best friend and she did not want to hurt any of us and she is a good person but it is late in the day and I want to go to bed so if you could show Taffy and me here to a room. That would be amazing" James chuckled but had a maid show us to a new room since the other one had broken windows. We arrived at the room. The two of us changed into some clothes and went to bed.

I woke up to find the door and then a bunch of maids came into the room and started helping me get ready. When they left I saw that taffy had hidden so as not to get a makeover. I was wearing a purple floral dress with matching shoes and a hairpin. I was so excited to go talk to James. We were going to talk about when and where we were going to do the wedding and I could not wait to talk to him about it.

I went down to his office and walked in without making it because I did not have to as I opened the door I saw something that made me so sad and mad. I could not believe what I was seeing. James was kissing a girl that was sitting on his lap. I walked over and pushed the girl to the floor shaking her and smacking him. She stood up and smacked me across the face and I pushed her to the ground.

"You, how dare you push over James's girlfriend who you think you are? Bitch" She said and I felt myself getting even madder than I was already.

"I am his French. Or sorry correction as I am done here take your damn ring back I should have known that you were just a playboy. You proposed to me yesterday and told me you loved me and yet here you are with another woman not even a full day later. And you miss James's Girlfriend, you are the only bitch that I see here. Take good care of this playboy I wish you two bitches the best of luck." I said crying as I stormed out of the room and back to my room. Taffy was sitting on the bed when I came in and changed into a pair of shorts and a tank top.

"We are leaving I am not going to stay here with him and his "Girlfriend" If he doesn't love me then that is his loss I have a restaurant and my kingdom to run," I said Taffy nodded and we ran out front where I found my brother getting out of a limo coming to see how I was doing. When he saw my red puffy eyes he knew that something was wrong and then he saw James running down the steps behind us and he helped the two of us into the car and we left.
