"Does the princess want her breakfast in her room?" Mr. Rodriguez asks me as I finish the last spoon of my cereal. It is a sunny uniform day and my hair is tied in a bun.

"She probably does, she has been eating breakfast there for a while now." It makes me sad to see the princess sad. I guess her boyfriend really made her upset for her to go into partial isolation for this long.

"Okay, I will put her plate together now and you can take it to her."

Today, I don't feel so good. My nose looks a bit red and I am running a temperature. I believe I have caught a cold, it's weird cause I have not been exposed to cold that much.

The kitchen does not look so full today. I miss the king and queen a little, they complete the castle in their own way I guess.

When Grumpy is done with the plate setting, he gives me the tray and I take it upstairs to the princess. I walk past the prince's room and to the princess's.

As anyone would have guessed, the prince and I have not spoken since the incident last night. I feel so confused, more confused than ever. The conversation we had yesterday did not make sense now that I think about it. The only thing that made sense was being under him. It feels like I am metal and the prince is a magnet, I never understand the way I want him majority of the time.

Again, he has been ignoring me.. I think.. or maybe I am just assuming. But he saw me this morning and did not say anything.. not like I said anything either. I did not bother to apologize or try to reason with him because it would be to no avail. Over night, I was reminiscing on the prince's words. I tried to understand what he meant by like, when he said he liked me, not that it matters cause it does not.

That is all besides the point right now. I knock on the princess's room door and I hear her voice shouting for me to come in.

I maneuver my way and get into her room without the tray falling, but I get unpleasantly shocked when I see the prince seated on her couch. She is still in bed.

"Good morning princess," I greet and shut the door behind me, praying to god that things do not get complicated in this room.

"Morning love! How are you? How was your night?" She sounds cheery, she usually does not. I guess her brother's presence made a big difference.

"My night was good. I brought your breakfast upstairs." I say, taking the tray over to where she lay.

"I'll leave now." I hear a deep voice from the only male in the room. "Remember what I told you earlier."

"Okay big bro." She beams as the prince leaves.

That being none of my business, I set up the princess's mini table and place her tray on it. She smiles and coughs. The cough is almost gone.

"The tea is boiling hot," I inform her, knowing she likes it that. The tray finally sits well so I stand straight.

"Thank you," she smiles and steers the tea with the teaspoon beside her cup. "Do you have a dress for you know what.."

The closest thing I have to a party dress is my simple black dress and that is hideous for parties.. I think.

"Hmm.. I'll sort it out, don't think too much about it." She puts her cup to her lips as she sips her tea.

"What about your friend?" The friend that was around the other day. I guess she is the princess's best friend.

"Oh Bella? Oh she's not coming today. Jim's birthday is tomorrow and everyone is preparing to go for it." Jim is one of the prince's friend, I remember.
