Me and bridgett were inches away from each other. As our lips were about to meet the carriage stopped. We were at Charming's castle. "Oh umm i guess we're here E. Let's go check on Charming." "oh yeah okay B." She got out of the carriage first and held her hand out to help me down. I took her hand and she just held my hand after i got down off the carriage. Ofc i didn't mind it bc this is what i wanted. I wanted bridgett. I think i do at least. I mean i like her a lot ik that. But i also like charming and im just getting really confused.

We walked up to charmings door still holding hands and i knocked on the door. Not even a second after i knock a guard was already opening the door. "Who are you two and what are you here for." "Oh umm i'm Ella and this is bridgett" Ella said as the guard was looking at us. "We're charmings friends and he hasn't been at school so we wanted to check on him" i said as the guard changed from serious to a smile. "Here let me take you up to his room." thank you" we both said as we walked in. The guard started to walk us to charmings room and i was looking at everything as we walked by. His family had this massive chandelier in the middle of the entrance way. Then we walked up a spiral staircase to get to charmings room. "Here we are girls" the guard said as he left.

Right as i was going to knock on charming door Bridgett pulled my hand a bit. "We probably shouldn't be holding hands when we go in" She said as she pulled our hands up to show me. "Yeah you're probably right B." We slowly let go of each other's hand. Then i knocked. Charming came to door and asked who was there. So i told him it was me and bridgett. The door swung open and he just stood there in silence. I ran into the room and gave him a hug. "God don't do that ever again. I really thought you died for a second." He hugged me back and said "I'm sorry Ella i should have told you i was going home for a bit." Bridgett finally spoke up "Why did you come home charming." I backed away from him and felt bridgett reach for my hand.

I know i was the one who said we shouldn't hold hands but i couldn't help myself. I saw them hugging and i just got this weird feeling in my stomach. Ella took my hand and backed up to stand next to me. I put my other hand on her arm. "I had to come home to plan some things my kingdom. My parents want me to start making some important decisions since i'm going to be king after i'm done school." I looked at Ella who was just starring at Charming. So i spoke first "Is this what you really want Charming?" "Yeah i do i've actually had fun these past few days at home planning stuff. I know i sound really boring right know but im excited to be able to help my people yk"'he said as he giggled a little bit. "So when are you coming back to the dorms" Ella asked. "i'm not sure i am. like i said my parents want me to step up a bit so when it's my time to lead i know what to do."
