Denial

ch.16

You could hear the confusion in his voice as the words slurred out of his plump lips. I didn't waste any time and took of to her office, not paying much attention to the situations since it might just be another pointless lecture. I near her door and surprisingly they're already open with her bodyguards ready to escort me in.

"Ahh just the person I wanted to see" the queen states as I slowly make my way in.

"You ordered, I obeyed" I stated blankly.

"Feels nice to finally take orders doesn't it? Either way that's not why I called you in. First, you will not be attending to rehab only for the reason that it's a bad reputation I'm not risking to maintain . On some better news, the palace will be having a ball soon, no biggie just a last minute party for my 49th birthday this Saturday" she says as if I forgot her birthday. I sigh relieved yet annoyed. How can I forget? We only celebrate it with a big party while I haven't celebrated mine in correct manners in years.

"And?" I say trying to get to the point she's trying out to make.

"Well, I don't want you in the palace during that time. Actually, you'll be away from the palace for a whole 2 months. Maybe longer, hasn't been properly sorted out but you get it" she blankly fucking states as if she doesn't care about how id feel about any of this. We haven't had any sort of celebration in this palace in 2 years and she doesn't want me to be here? She dumps this all on me as if I wouldn't be bothered. Of fucking course I'm bothered, I'm fuming. I can't believe her, maybe I should leave this hell while and as far away from her as possible. Maybe if I'm lucky she won't have Harry come with me and she can hire some old Russian dude who isn't half as rude and maybe who can't speak English. Highly unlikely.

"Wha- How? Wait why can't I be here?! I'm the princess! It's only appropriate if I'm here, we haven't had a celebration in 2 years and you don't want me here?" I say with clear anger.

"Your 21 and don't know how to act. You aren't proper and your awful with your manners around alcohol. Therefore, you'll be staying in Miami, Florida" she says saying other words but I'm completely blacked out. Did she just say Florida?! I'll be completely away from England! I can't, I won't. But it doesn't sound as bad. I mean I could use the time away. Plus I could just drink there, & heard parties there are 100x better. How bad can this be?

"Oh wait, forgot to mention Harry will be accompanying you" she states. I'm about to protest and rant about how id rather die she slides in, " Before you say anything, I made sure Emily can go. It's alright with her guardians" she smiles. It's like a huge weight has been lifted off. Gosh I can't believe this.

"You and Harry will not be living together. However you and Emily will. I made sure to get two beach houses side by side. One for Harry, another for you two girls. Did I mention the house you'll be staying in has a dance studio?" She smirks. Is this a punishment or a luxury vacation? She can speak no more.

"Fine I'm in. When do we leave?"
