Will you be my Princess? 2

Chapter 6: Over the Seas

"Do you have everything? Toothbrush, shampoo, did you bring extra coats? I heard it's colder during the Autumn time." Her Aunt double checked to make sure she had everything in her bags and that she didn't forget anything back at the house.

"Yes I checked this morning. I have everything," Lyrica said and she quickly hugged her Aunt to make her stop double checking for things.

"Okay just making sure you never know if you forget anything." She hugged her back and let go.

"Well even if I did I'm sure I can ask to buy a new one in Valentino."

"I guess so."

"I'll come visit soon." She then went over to Alice and her grandmother to hug the two together.

"Bring back souvenirs this time!" Alice exclaimed to her.

"Okay, okay."

"Have fun dear, I'm sure you'll go on a lot of adventures." Her grandmother said to her.

"Of course I will."

"Also can you send all the dresses that Elizabeth will make for you ahead of time? I am dying to see what she has for you this time."

"Maybe we'll see." She then looked at everyone one last time, "Bye everyone!" Lyrica waved goodbye to her family and grabbed her backpack to go through TSA. She watched as her family watched her go through security and once she was finished she could no longer see them. She was finally on her own for the first time in a couple of months. It took an hour for her plane to finally arrive to the airport.

She checked in and although the flight attendants on the plane knew who she was they were told not to make a commotion when she enters. She wore black sunglasses to cover her eyes and quietly went on the plane by herself. The plane ride took around five hours and most of the time she fell asleep through the ride. She woke up every now and then to eat lunch and to read about Valentino University. After those five hours were up she was finally back. She thanked the flight attendants and went outside of the plane. There someone familiar was already waiting for her.

"Hey!" It was Peter who was waiting for her right when she arrived.

"Peter!" She went over to him quickly and hugged him, "I didn't know you were the one picking me up. I thought it would be Grey?"

"Well, Grey has been busy these days. So I was next in line, and it's an honor to pick you up," he then grabbed her bag, "The rest of the staff will get your luggage but I was told to bring you straight to the Castillo Estate. Are you ready?"

"Mhm."

He walked her over to another exit of the airport. This was usually the pathway royals would take to avoid people. There was a big black SUV waiting outside and it's trunks was open. There were two knights ready to help with Lyrica's luggage. They opened the door for the two and once they were inside they left the airport.

"So how was your summer Lyrica?" Peter asked her.

"It was fun, me and my family went to a lake we usually go to every summer. I also hanged out with Lucia and Ryan every other week just completing missions and all that. How about you?"

"Mmm, it was okay just a bunch of royal duties now that I'm technically back. I might leave again though we'll see."

"You don't plan on going to university so you?"

"Technically I would be prepping for that to apply next year. I honestly don't want to go. I mean I'm barely finishing the Academy online."

"I see, well that's okay. Like you said school isn't for everyone."
