It's New Years Eve 1996, Emily is 5 years old. Emily hasn't seen her Mum since her birthday until tonight when her father invited Diana to the party. Emily has been by Diana's side most of the night cause she can't find her brothers. But little did anyone know that 1997 would change Emily, William, and Harry's lives forever. Little Emily didn't understand why her parents aren't together anymore. "Mummy, Why are you and Daddy not together as much anymore?" Emily asked Diana. "It's hard to explain, My Love. When your older I'll tell you but right now I can't." Diana Says to Emily. William and Harry come running to the room. "Its almost time everyone!" They both say. Harry and William come over to their Mum and Sister. They hug Diana. "I love you Mummy!" Harry and William say. "Come on Emily, Lets go see fireworks!" William says. They take Emily and both hold her hand. "3, 2, 1! HAPPY NEW YEAR!" the kids scream.

It's June 2nd, 1997 and Emily is on her last day of school but her dad and brothers pick her up early for an event. she usually doesn't go to events as much as her dad and brothers do but every now and then she does. On the way home Emily tells them about the boy she met named Alexander, of Richmond, which you will hear all lot about him. Anyway once they get to the event Emily, William, and Harry go somewhere else to hang out and talk. "Willy, Harry will Mummy come pick us up tonight?" asked Emily. "I think in the morning maybe." William Says. Emily has been waiting to see her Mum. She still doesn't really understand why they aren't together. a few hours pass and Emily is so sleepy, so Charles picks her up and carries her to the car. on the way home Emily falls asleep in Charles's arms. when they got home she was put to bed and the next morning her Mum came into her room to wake her up. "Emmy, Wake up, Mummy has a surprise for you!" Diana says with a soft tone. As soon as Emily heard her Mum she jumped out of bed. "Mummy! I missed you!" Emily says jumping into Diana's arms. "I missed you too Emmy. So guess what!" Diana says. "Yes, Mummy?" Emily says. "I already told your brothers but Mummy is taking you and your brothers to the beach for about 2 weeks!" Diana says. "I get to Spend 2 weeks with you! Yay!" Emily Screams. "Yes! now come on get dressed and lets go, they already put your things and your brothers things in the car!" Diana says.
