Princess?

Chapter 12

Camilla's P. O. V.

"Sonny said he stopped by earlier. He said you weren't here."

I look up at Tony, "He said what?"

Tony furrows his brows, "He said you weren't here. Where did you go?"

I shrug, "I was tired of being in this house. I went for a walk. "

"For 4 hours?"

I sit back in my seat, "What is this? An interrogation?"

Tony leans forward, "I want to know where you were. "

I roll my eyes, "I went for a walk and sat at the top of a hill for awhile. I ate lunch up there and accidentally fell asleep. That's it. "

Tony looks at me with suspicion but keeps eating, "The Queen has invited us to have dinner with them tomorrow."

My eyes widen in shock, "The Queen?"

Tony nods, "I've had a dress flown in from Paris. Apparently Prince Louis has decided on his wife and his mother wants us to have dinner with all of them. "

I give him a small smile, "Sounds lovely. "

***

"Gosh, I love that dress on you. "

I smile at Tony, "Thank you. "

We're sitting in the back of a limo as we drive to the palace. I'm angry and upset.

Upset that Louis chose Lea when he told me he wasn't going to.
Angry that he lied to me about it.

We pull up and get out, going inside. We're led to the huge dining room where Louis, his parents and Lea and her parents.

I walk in, arm in arm with Tony. I look at Louis and frown. He's got his arm around Lea. I smile as Louis' parents hug me, "It's a pleasure to meet you, your highness. "

We all sit down and start eating. Tony says, "So, Lea is the woman you've chosen, Prince Louis?"

Louis immediately looks at me and rubs the back of his neck, "Uhm-"

"Yes. He told me yesterday evening. "

I look at Louis, "Yesterday? Wow. "

Yesterday, Louis and I were kissing in the grass. Then he goes to the palace and tells Lea he wants to marry her.

I can't handle this. I look at Louis and Lea. She keeps whispering in his ear and giggling. I stand up, "Excuse me"

I quickly walk down the hall to the bathroom. I lean against the counter and take a few deep breaths.

I have feelings for Louis. Then this happens.

Someone knocks on the door. I sigh, "Who is it?"

"It's me"

I sigh and unlock the door, opening it to come face to face with Louis.

I give him a look then turn my back to him, taking my lipstick out and reapplying.

Louis sets his hands on my waist, "Camilla"

I shake my head, "Don't. Please don't. You're going to marry Lea. That's fine."

Louis shakes his head, "My mother told Lea I said yes. But I didn't. If you want to be with me, then I will tell them all about our relationship. Right now. "

I turn around and look at him, "Louis, I'm not ready to do that. "

Louis groans and grabs my face in his hands, "If we don't tell them about us, I will be married. In three months time. "

My eyes pop open, "3 months!"

Louis nods and presses his forehead against mine, "We must announce our relationship now. If we want to be together. "

I take a deep breath, "Okay. And you can get me a divorce from Tony?"

Louis nods, "Even better, an annulment. It'll be like it never even happened. "

I pull him into a hug, "Thank you so much. "

He kisses me then grabs my hand, "Let's go cause some havoc. "

I laugh as we walk, hand in hand into the room.

Tony looks up, "Is everything alright- what's going on. "

Louis clears his throat, "We have an announcement. Mother, I am in love with Camilla. And I want to be with her. "

There are multiple gasps in the room. Tony stands up, "You guys are funny. "

Louis raises his brows, "You don't believe me? Okay. "

Louis grabs me and kisses me so hard. I wrap my arms around him and kiss him back.

Tony grabs me, "Stop it!"

Louis takes me and rips me from his arms. He pushes me behind him, "If you touch her again, I will kill you. "

"Louis!"

I look around at everyone in shock. Lea looks at Louis, "What is going on?"

Louis sighs, "I'm sorry Lea, but I didn't want to marry you. My mother forced me to tell you I did. But I'm in love with Camilla"

Louis' mom scoffs, "That's impossible. She's an American!"

Louis shrugs, "So? I think American's are pretty great. "

Lea and Louis' mother storms out of the room while Tony just stands there in disbelief.

Louis grabs me and looks at me, "Go back home. Let me get some things straightened out here. Then I will send for you in 2 days time, maybe less. You will come live in the castle. "

I smile, "I'll be waiting"

Louis kisses me then pulls away, looking at Tony, "I know you care about her too. So let her be happy. Let her go. And please keep her safe these next couple days. I'm entrusting the safety of the future queen of France to you. Please keep her safe"

I look at Louis in shock when he calls me the future queen. Louis laughs, "Obviously we'll be married eventually. And you will be my queen. I love you. Now go. "

I smile at Louis then walk out to our limo, followed by Tony. When we get in the limo, I look at Tony, "Can I please explain?"

Tony looks at me with tears in his eyes. My eyes widen in shock. I grab him and pull him into a hug.

I squeeze him hard, "I'm so sorry"

Tony pulls away and brushes some hair out of my face, "What happened?"

I sigh, "It was an arranged marriage. I was never happy! You were always working and you impregnated your mistress. I can't handle that. Louis loves me and I love Louis. "

Tony nods, "You love the idea of being a queen. "

I slap him hard, "How dare you. My feelings have nothing to do with that. If I met Louis and he wasn't a prince, I would still love him. Because he makes me feel important and loved. "

Tony sighs, "My dad is going to kill me"

I take his hands in mine, "It's my decision. Your father can't begrudge you for that. I won't tell anyone about our troubles. "
