Marian
I had stayed in the castle for more than two weeks and I had a somewhat idea of how my days went.

By four am in the morning I had to wake up, take my bath and get dressed in my uniform.

Breakfast.

I had to catch my breakfast before five even if it meant I had to run.

Getting there any later than five on the dot meant no breakfast for me. I learnt that the hard way.

Lara had made me responsible for caring for the flowers in the garden and the green house. So by six I had to go check on them.

Six thirty, I go to the prince and princess's room to get it cleaned up.

Their breakfast is usually at seven, unless they make a special request, or decide to skip.

By eight, the first 'court session' holds. Or at least that's what I think it's called.

The princess usually attends but the prince.. I really don't care what the prince does with his life.

During the court sessions I have time to do some laundry and get the rooms re-arranged.

Free time?

Yeah, I have some free time by ten in the morning. I found a novel in the library and decided to read it.

By ten thirty I had to return to garden care and finish up anything I didn't in the morning.

Twelve noon I had to catch lunch and prepare some mid-day snacks for them.

By two we -the cooks and I- set the table for the royal family.

After lunch everyone has time to do whatever. By four, the second court session holds.

I clean the castle, every bit I can until Lara tells me what else to do.

The queen usually has one event or the other by six pm.

Everyone has dinner by eight and gets ready for bed. The king usually doesn't eat with everyone. If he did then it meant the occasion was special.

I lay the prince and princess's bed while they eat, and after that I wait on the princess till she says it's okay to go to bed.

All the servants change out of their uniforms by nine and are allowed to do whatever.

Wednesdays and Sundays are exceptional cause we don't wear uniforms on these days.

Bruce Crown
The guys and I sat in my game room. The guys being Jude, Zack, Noah and Jim.

There was this new video game that came out and we just had to try it.

Jude, Zack and I were on the long couch while Noah and Jimmy did whatever shit they were doing on their phones.

"Hey guys," I continued with my game pad, "I need help with a bucket list or some shit."

"Why? Are you dying?" Noah laughed but we all focused on the game.

"I wish. I'm getting married in a year." I frowned.

"The fuck?"

"Bullshit."

"No man."

"Guys relax," Jude seemed a little more calm than the other. "he's prolly just trying to distract us from the game. There's no way in hell Bruce is getting married."

"I'm dead serious," the game ended and Jude won. "My fucking mom gave me a year." I sighed.

"What? Why would she do that?" Jim asked as Zack started setting another game.
