Marie Stars, a 20...

Marie couldn't sleep.
The brunette's tired red glossy eyes darted around her room, her palms on her cheeks as she sat blankly on the edge of her bed in her pajamas, her hair all of a mess. It was unladylike of her, but she didn't care at the moment, after all, she was alone in her bedroom with no one to gawk at her from afar. This is her safe haven from the outside reality of her world, where she could be whoever she wanted to be. She stays here when she's feeling confused, sad, angry or just genuinely bored. She also invites her friends in here so that they can talk and stay away from prying eyes from all corners of the Castle.
The eyes could belong to anyone, even the guards who guards the hallways and the maids who keep the Castle clean everyday in every hallway and room. Her mother taught her better, to be cautious at all times even if they seemed friendly or if they seemed like they are just doing their job. Either way, you may never know if they could be eavesdropping and then they'll spread rumors all over the kingdom somehow. This has happened many times, most of the time with her parents and - especially, her Dad. He was the most important person after all, who wouldn't? If she knew humans better, they are curious creatures who could get themselves into trouble just to satisfy their curiosity.
Like they say, curiosity kills the cat, right? Apparently, almost all of the humans don't really get the meaning of it..from what she saw ofcrouse. Marie's not the princess to judge, but from what she saw, from all of the humans she met in her whole lifetime, she can surely say that not all of them take time to find the meaning of said idiom.
Speaking of humans..she really do miss her friends, Shaera and Augustine.
Marie immediately dismissed her thoughts and flopped onto the bed, snuggling into the thick fuffly blankets while her small head peaked out for the pillow to rest on her head and on her face. She squished her face into one of the multiple coloured pillows and snuggled deeply into her bed. She twisted and shifted for a second, then minutes, then hours. Hours went by but the young brunette could not sleep, it's like her eyes were not listening to the command her brain is commanding every single muscle in her entire body, to just shut down and take some rest. But whatever Marie did, she could not sleep. She felt the uneasiness growing in the pit of her stomach like an volcano just waiting for the correct time to erupt.
