Azia

When Alora left I felt lonely so I sat on my window and just looked out on the kingdom. It's almost December, the snow is already flying outside. There are some icicles on the gutter.

Some of the small lakes are already frozen. Many trees don't have leaves already. Right now I can easily see deers in woods. They are shining on the white ground.

I looked on the village. Kids are playing outside, are they snowballing each other? Oh my god, the balls they made from snow are very big and heavy. I think it hurts when you throw it to someone's face.

Hmm, I would love to go outside to play snowballing.

I looked the other direction and saw some kids that were building a snowman. They found some carrots, coal, hat and branches.

Somebody knocked my door.

„Yes?” I asked.

My dad came inside my room. I stood up and walked up to him.

„Hello Little Note. This came for you.”

He handed me envelope. It was sealed with a red seal and had a picture of a rose on it.

„From who is this envelope?” I asked.

„I don't know, the postman said that it's from a prince.”

„Prince? If it's another invitation that „The prince is looking for a bride”, then no thanks, I'm not going.”

I opened the envelope and read.

Dear, Azia,

I want to invite you for our Christmas ball that's going to happen on 21st December in the kingdom of Calmaria. I would be glad if you would come. I think we would have so much fun together. Maybe you're not the type of princess that wears dresses, high heels, has a perfect hair and make-up and I don't know what else, but I would be glad if you came. I want to see your smile again and I have a surprise for you. I can't tell what it is because it wouldn't be a surprise anymore but please come, I want to see you and your beautiful smile.

Your beloved Seb♡

Awww, he wants to see me and he has a surprise for me? That's cute.

„So, what is it Azia?”

„Seb invited me on a Christmas ball!” I screamed with happiness in my voice.

„When is it?” he asked.

„On 21st December.” I answered.

„And where?”

Oh shoot, he doesn't know that Seb is the prince of Calmaria. Oh god but I have to tell the truth.

„In the kingdom of Calmaria.”

When he heard that he looked angry at first but then he said.

„Fine, but I will come with you.”

„Okay that will be perfe-... Wait what?! No, you can't come! You hate the kingdom of Calmaria, they are our enemies, you can't go there.”

„If I don't come then you're not going. I have to keep an eye on you. I have to protect you Azia.”

„Ugh, fine but under one condition, oh no two conditions.”

„I'm listening Little Note.”

„You will leave me alone with Seb and you won't make any conflicts with the king Caelestis Stern, okay?” I said my two conditions.

„Fine.” he said and rolled his eyes.

„You promise?” I asked.

„Yes I promise, but I don't like the idea of you and Seb being alone together. I don't like it what if he will go crazy and he will kill you?”

„Daaad!” I shouted, „He won't do that!”

„Okay, fine, I agree with the conditions.”

„Well, go and call the seamstress please. I have to wear a nice dress dad.” I said and smiled at him.

„Awww, you are going to wear a dress, awww my Little Note, you are going to look stunning.”

„Dad stop, you will make me blush.” I said and laughed.

„Okay I'm going to call her, good bye Little Note, I love you.” he gave me a kiss on my forehead and left the room.

„I live you too dad, I love you too.”

Sebastian

After my father said to me, to go and invite Azia to the Christmas ball, I went to my room and wrote an invitation to her.

I went down stairs to the main hall where my postman was waiting for me. I handed him the invitation.

„Go to the kingdom of Ertrinnia and hand it it to the king Kian Rimitti.”

„Yes prince, I'm on my way.”

He walked out of the main hall and went outside.

In my mind I was just praying that Azia will come to this ball. I really want to see her and I have a surprise for her so if she doesn't come everything will be ruined.

When I was sure that the postman left I went to my room. I locked myself there and layed on my bed. I was just looking at the ceiling when I remembered that I don't know what should I wear to the ball.

I went to my closet which was full of elegant clothes, boots, shirts, pants, jackets, ties and much more things but my favourite shelf is with the rider's clothes.

No, I can't wear rider's clothes to the ball, but maybe I can go for a flight right now. I don't care that it's snowing outside I want to just go and clear my mind.

So, I dressed up into rider's clothes and went to the dragon stables that we have under our kingdom. I found my beautiful blue dragon.

„Hi young lady. How were you Azura?” I asked.

She just leaned her big head against mine and exhaled.

„We are going for a flight, what do you think about it?”

When she heard the word „flight” she was so excited. So I jumped on her back and she walked out of the dragon stables.

When we were outside she jumped and after few minutes we were really high above our village and kingdom.

I missed this so much. I love going for a flight with her. She seems happier when she's outside and when we are flying.

I let my mind rest and let go of all thoughts. I was just enjoying the wind in my hair and the freezing weather.
