Chapter 2

Hello Wattpaders! Here's the second chapter. Enjoy!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I rode my Black Knight and ran to the open field. There I saw Zack on his white horse staring at the sky filled with clouds.

He was in deep thoughts, he doesn't even realizes that I was already behind him. I called his name a few times and still he didn't look around to look at me instead he was still staring at the sky and suddenly his eyes closed and he was humming. I called his name again and he didn't reply.

I lost my patience after I called him like a million times so I pushed him, yeah I pushed him so hard he was falling and "thud!" he was on the ground lying on his face and his white suit is covered with sand and was a little bit crumpled. But hey, it's his problem for zoning out when I'm calling him.

He cussed loudly at me.Turning his head at me in surprise, he stands up quickly.

He wiped his palm and kissed my hand, excusing himself for not noticing me sooner. He was always a gentleman when we are alone together that sometimes I will just roll my eyes.

I noticed that he was hiding something like a rose (the rose was a bit destroyed maybe because it fell on the ground with his body) behind his back with his free hand.

I ignored him and was trying to climb my horse when I slipped trying to step on the stirrup. Zack ran to me and caught me bridal style. I flushed as I look at Zack.

He smirked and said "Princesses should always wait for their prince charming to come." And I flushed like a red tomato, I was embarrased.

I whispered "Thank you but please put me down." But he's face was like I won't and he carried me to his horse.

He took the lunge of my horse.

While I was struggling to get away from Zack he decided to start a conversation, "I think you should always be careful even in your own land, Alicia," I chuckled softly, knowing it was me who he was pertaining to. And it seems he noticed that.

"Do you really think I'm worrying about you because I'm joking?" he said with his questioning look.

"Well, I just think that it's funny that you actually cared for me, so what's the problem with that." I replied to him.

"See! You are like that; you have no attention to your surroundings. Always thinking that you can handle any situation you face." He said with his worrying face.

"Okay I get it so stop yelling.' I said to him.

There was a bit of dead air between us.

But later on he talked about his accomplishment saying "I won in the Archery final" and was making himself feel proud by complimenting himself. He also said something about letters he receives for my father along the way back to my mansion.

(I feel like "I want to go home now so shut up you bastard!")

The butler was waiting for us.

He whispered to Zack and said it was urgent.

Zack followed him.

I fixed my horse in the stable and said farewell to him.

I jumped to my bed and there was this bumpy surface below my blanket.

I took a peek to see what inside my blanket.

It was a brown teddy bear with a letter in his hand that's said "from: Zack"

I threw the envelope to the trash can beside my bed.

I opened the envelope "To Alicia, I am sorry that I have to leave you there in the horse stable due to an urgent meeting. This is the compensation for me leaving you there. I hope you will like it, Love Zack."

P.S"Smell it! You will love it."

I took the bear and smelled it.

The teddy bear smelled like cappuccino and so I decided to name him cappuccino.

I was trying to sleep when Michael caused a ruckus in my mind about him having two different personalities.

Why is Michael kind towards the commoners?

Why is he rude to the rich?

Why Zack and Michael  don't get along?

Why does he spend time with the kids on the park?

All sorts of questions are flooding my head but I decided I should keep my Identity to myself.

I unknowingly slept snoring.

Waking up by the damn alarm clock.

Jumping out of the bed. I took a bath and changed to a turtle neck and a waist-line skirt.

I hurried down the stairs, and ate my breakfast. Father is not here because of an early meeting

I went up to my room

I wore a hoodie and shades again with the skirt I'm wearing and left to the go to the park.

I was disappointed seeing him not there. I brought biscuits to the kids and play with them.

When I heard footsteps approaching me "Oh! Someone is too excited to be here." I looked around me and saw Michael smiling at me.

I was lost in words when I was thinking how to ask the questions that are bugging my mind all night but I know I can't after that I smiled at him and said "hey!"

We sat in the nearby bench and I offered him some biscuits. He accepted them and said "thank you!"

We were chatting about how the kids were doing. But later on he asked about me.

He asked me about my family being the only daughter, about my school life which I lied saying I attend the public school nearby that won't get any suspicions.

I asked him the same question but his smile turned into a frown.

He said "I have a little brother whose age is the same as me but I was born 6 months before him." And "I study at Eagle Private High school (which is also Zack's and my school)

"Wow! You are rich for attending Eagle Private High school. Maybe your one of the hot guys there." I teased him.

"Why will you think about that? He asked me.

I giggled and then replied to him "Obviously, you are handsome, kind, and a gentleman." I pointed at his face.

"Actually, you don't really know me but that's more better" he mumbled, "I better get home my mom's already waiting. My mom's making dinner.

After I have changed my clothes, the butler handed me an invitation to a ball from my best friend, Izel who lives far from here.

The invitation says that they moved to a mansion near ours and to celebrate they will hold a ball.

The requirements were: black tie, thanksgiving, invitation and a date. (What!!! A date! Who will I ask to go with me?!!)

The butler coughed to get my attention and said "Mr. Johnson is now waiting down stairs and would like to see you." After that he excused himself.

I went down to see Zack reading an invitation and I noticed it was the same as mine.

He smirked then asked "Are you going? Because if you are, would you be my date?"

"Sure, "I said." only because I can't go without a partner." I warned him

"I'll pick you at 8." He said and left.
