The next few days are quite quiet. I spend my days with Audrey and Erin mostly, Audrey chatting up a storm. Finn has already asked Hermione on a date, which she went on proudly. Once she came back she bragged about how they kissed. He also took Erin and Lexi, but not me. Until two hours ago.

I was sitting in the woman's room with Audrey and Erin.
"He took me to this little ice cream place and we had amazing sorbet," Erin swoons.
"That's so romantic!" Audrey gushes, "He asked me to come with him to the swimming pool on Thursday!"
"What about you Piper?" Erin turns to me, grinning happily.
"Um well-" I was cut off as Hermione walked up to us.
"Piper hasn't gone on a date yet," She declares loudly, "She probably-"
Queen Clara enters the woman's room and looks at me, "Lady Piper, my son is outside, he has requested to see you."
"-now that she's in trouble," Hermione sneers. I get up shakily and walk outside.
"Piper!" Finn smiles happily.
"Hi, you're mother, I mean Queen Clara said you wanted to see me,"
"Yes," He said blushing a little, then he handed me a note.
"What-" He put a finger to my lips, winked and then he was gone. I walked back into the woman's room, a little confused.
"Come to say goodbye to everyone Piper?" Hermione laughs.
"You'll say goodbye to everyone if you don't shut up!" Erin says angrily.
"Yeah," Audrey snorts, "You're just jealous,"
"Jealous of that?" Hermione jeers. Erin and Audrey escort me out of the woman's room, they open the door to my room and flop onto the bed. I sit next to them.
"What he say?" Audrey asks.
"Not- nothing," I stammer, "Just a note,"
"Well open it!" Erin says eagerly. I do and then I read.
My dearest Piper,
Meet me in the courtyard after dinner at around 10? Wear whatever you want, make sure it's comfortable.
Yours truly,
Finn.
"OH MY GOSH HE ASKED YOU ON A SECRET DATE!" Audrey explodes.
"I guess he did," I grin, but then a horrible thought appears in my head, that wipes my grin from my face, my mother's plan is starting to happen, Finn's starting to fall for me.
