"Elijah, how's college treating you?" My dad asks my brother, Elijah. "It's pretty good, Father," Elijah replies while stuffing his mouth with some bread. He visited my dad for a week to update him about "confidential matters" I wasn't allowed to know about.
"Arabella, Elijah, and I must go on a weekend business trip. Don't do anything crazy." With that, my father got the table and left. "So, how's life here, sis?" Elijah asks me and I roll my eyes. If someone had to answer who is smarter in the both of us, it would be me.
Yet, Elijah got everything.
"Look, it's not my choice-" Before he finished I got up and left to my room. Suddenly, I received a text from James.

the most annoying person on earth
look out your window
I do as he says and I see his limousine parked outside. I quickly throw myself to my bed, my heart rushing faster. What the fuck, we both could be in so much trouble if my father saw us!
I put on a plaid skirt and a white formal t-shirt, then snuck out of my window. Yeah, I do that a lot. I ran to the door of his car and said, "Go!" I yelled, but he just smirked at me.
"bloody hell James. My dad! he'll kill you." And then it hit him. "Shit yeah. Percy, you can take us now." I sigh, knowing if my father finds out about us hanging out together for whatever it may be he'll kill me.
It took me a while but I noticed how hot James looked right now. And don't get me started on how he smells... Arabella get a hold of yourself
After an hour of making small talk and avoiding talking about that kiss yesterday, we reached London.
We reached the exhibit and I was in awe. James noticed it cause he asked me if I go to places like this often. "Yeah, no, not really. My dad doesn't let me go anywhere. I mean, he does, but I guess he's just protective." I cover up the fact that my father isn't actually interested in talking me to places.
"Oh, okay. Well, you should sneak out with me." He suggested with a grin plastered across his face. "Sure James. I'd love to." I smile at him.
"Well, let's go in."
My eyes immediately fly to the pink Victorian gown. I practically ran to it. "James! oh my god. This is perfect." I look at him and he just smiles at me. I took permission to take pictures. James crept up behind me and whispered in my ear.
"You should try it on."
"Yeah, I could but I don't want to."
"You won't get another opportunity like this Bella."
"Well... Fine."
Before I knew it, I looked like an actual Princess.
𝐉𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐒
Arabella was taking forever so I decided to play the piano. Soon enough, I saw her walking down the staircase, and let me tell you, my heart skipped a beat.
she looked so beautiful. She is so beautiful.
Her brown eyes met mine and it seemed as if our worlds had collided. As if we were the only people left on earth. And her looking like a fucking princess wasn't helping my sudden attraction towards her.
"So, how do I look?" She smiles at me doubtfully. "You look... Stunning." I reply with a smile of my own. Her cheeks lit up to a rosy red color.
She walked up to the mirror and looked shocked. She looked just as beautiful. "Wow," She mumbled.
I walk up to her and ask her, "Would you dance with me, Mi'lady?" while putting an arm out as an invitation and she let out a soft giggle before taking it.
I twirled around and she laughed.
My hand went to her waist and she blushed.
My face was near hers and she kissed me.
I kissed her back. I needed this. I pull her closer and my tongue glides against her earning a soft moan from a side. music to my fucking ears.
Suddenly I heard a voice, "So is this what you've been doing? Making out with the daughter of our rival company instead of working on the presentation." Dad.
Me and Bella pulled away and we looked at my dad in horror.
"Dad I can explain-" I try finishing my sentence but he walks away and suddenly stops in his track. "I don't mind you doing what you want James. But with her?" He scoffs and walks away.
I felt every single nerve in my body erupt as I looked at Arabella's hurt expression. I wanted to go up to him and punch him till he was bloody. till he was dead.
But I couldn't.
"My driver is on the way." She spoke stiffly and went up to the dressing room the change.
Fuck.
