Your Selection

Chapter 2

You try to forget about the boys, your boys entering the palace, try to forget the loud footsteps and the sound of chatter. You try to not feel the sick feeling in your stomach, but the curiosity is to much for you. You get out of your bed and run out of your room across the hallway.

You figured that the boys would be still entering and being introduced to the palace which would mean that they still are at the front door. You continue running down the hallway until you reach the top of the staircase, you creep along the edge and peak down to see if they are there. They were there. They were so handsome every single one of them. So much more cuter than in their pictures.

You scanned the crowd looking for the ones that you remember from the files.You saw Percy, you saw Draco, You saw Tobias, You saw Augustus and sure enough you saw Jem and Will standing only millimeters apart, seems that you were right, they were friends.
You continue scanning the crowd until you saw Minho he was so much cuter in person, you couldn't help but keep your eyes on him. He had strong arms, black hair, so cute. He turns his heads upwards towards the top of the staircase. You freeze in horror not knowing what to do. You stare at him hoping he turns his head away but he doesn't. His eyes wander towards you, you know he has seen you now. You feel sick, you weren't allowed to let anyone see you until tomorrow. He makes eye contact with. Shit, you think what if he tells the rest of the group then you will be screwed for sure.

But he doesn't alarm the others he just looks into your eyes and winks and then looks back towards the tour guide. You slump against the staircase in relief, that could have turned out really bad for you. If they saw you your chance at a good first impression would be gone, just like that. You feel a wave of gratitude to Minho but hopes that he doesn't tell the others about it latter.

"If you would follow me up the stairs I will show you to your rooms" Oh no! You think, if they come upstairs you will be spotted for sure.

You stand up as fast as you can and sprinted down the hallway unfortunately your room was a fair way down the hall. As your running you here the footsteps of the men stepping up the stairs. There's no way your going to make it in time. You start to get short of breath not because you are running but because you are running but because you are starting to panic. You have always been considered a fairly good runner although you didn't care for it much.

You turn around as you keep on running to see if you can see them, but thankfully they haven't made it the top of the stairs yet and judging by the footsteps it sounds like they are only halfway up the stairs. You think that your gonna make it your room is only about ten meters away, but that's when you feel your foot get caught in something, you fall awkwardly onto the ground. You feel a flash of pain stabbing through your waist.

Then just when you think that the situation was at its worst you hear a crash.

You feel a cool liquid on your leg. For a second you think its blood but then you realise that the item that your foot got caught in must have been the tall table that was keeping the rose vase up. It was only water thank god.

You hear the footsteps more loudly now, they must have quickened their pace after hearing the loud noise, they are going to see any second now. You stumble upwards, trying to stand without your waist killing you. You eventually get your balance and stumble run jog to your room.

The pain your waist is causing you is terrible but the fear of them seeing you like this is even more unbearable then the pain so you power on. You reach your door. The footsteps have stopped they have made it to the top of the staircase. You freeze hoping that they haven't seen you, you quickly glance towards them. You feel horror flood through you, they are all looking at you.

"Is that the Princess!" One of them says in disgust, "I thought she was suppose to be pretty and -" But he doesn't get to finish what he was saying instead he let out a gasp of pain. Did someone hit him? For you? You didn't understand why anyone would do that for you. They don't even know you yet and that could get them thrown out of the castle before the selection.

You forget about it for a second and slip into your room. You slump down in pain and exhaustion. You didn't know how anything good get any worse. Your first impressions were ruined, your dreams were ruined, you thought that the selection was suppose to make your life better not worse.

You start to cry. Start to cry from exhaustion. Start to cry from pain. Start to cry from tiredness. Start to cry for trying. Your eyes begin to shut and you drift of into sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You wake up suddenly. You hear a noise outside your door, it is coming closer. You try to get up but feel a piercing pain in on waist. You forgot for a second about last nights dramas but now you remember everything. You feel another pain but not from your waist but from inside you. You couldn't believe that you had let that happen.

You give up on walking and start to stumble to the other side of the room and grab a pen. Its the closest thing to a weapon that you have so you take it. As you stumble you realize that you feel more pain but this time its on your foot. You look down and see dried up blood, shit it must of been blood not water after all.

You see the handle of your door turn. You quickly go to the back of the door so you can surprise attack him or her from behind and hopefully be able to escape.

The door creaks open and you attack. You push the pen into the attacker as far as you can and start to kick them.
"Ow owwww" They groan, "Hey stop!" They flick the light switch on and I see who the attacker is.
