Country Princess

Chapter 5

Chapter five

"What happened here?" Unison again. I swear they should all just be quadruplets.
"Uuuhhhh.. I... Uhh.. Ummm.." I said "scratching" my back
"Well?" Emily said kindly
"I well uh kind of crashed into the uh punch bowl" I said quietly as I looked down at my feet in shame
"And how did that happen?" Leo questioned.
"I don't know" I replied
"Yes you do, now tell us" Derrick Said seriously.
"Magic. It's magical punch." I said.

I guess I forgot the waiter was still there because all of a sudden he started bursting out laughing and said something in Italian I didn't understand.

I was amazed and so was everyone else. All of a sudden someone started talking to me and I didn't hear them. Finally I turned around when I actually heard them.

"So, Bella, how exactly did this accident happen?" Oliver inquired.
I turned around and looked Oliver dead in the eye. "I'm a clutz that's why" I said with a straight face.

"Princesses are supposed to be graceful you know" Carly reminded me
"Yea I know, just that's hard for me" I replied silently
"Wait so you're not graceful at all? That explains all the bruises on you" Leo said trying to be funny

I looked down at my arms or see them. I never noticed them before.I just turned around a glared at him. I turned turned away to get get another cloth out of the kitchen. Surprisingly I didn't find Olivia in the kitchen. Actually I didn't find anyone in the kitchen. They must be doing something else. When I was digging around in a cabinet for a cloth, I heard a voice.

"What are you doing little gurl?" Said the Italian cook
"Just getting another cloth to clean up my mess" I said turning around
"Oh no need! That is our job missy! Now go back and enjoy the par.... What happened to your dress, it's red!"
"That's from when I ran into your punch bowl, I'm so, so sorry" I said sounded ashamed
"Oh no need to apologize! It's just, well.... I'll have the maids try and get that stain out after the ball" he told me
"Oh ok thank you!" I said waving goodbye as I walked out of the kitchen.

When I got back to the ball, I saw my mom and dad standing at the mess. Oh great, I thought. They are also going to wonder what happened. I was hoping if I walked into the crowd and around them to find my friends, I would avoid talking to them. You can probably guess how that turned out. My parents already saw me walking out of the big black swinging doors of the kitchen. They waved at me to come over to where they were standing. As i was walking over there, suddenly I was tackled to the ground by somebody. As I looked up to see who it was, another person jumped on top.

"Oh yea, let's just make a dog pile on top of the princess you know" I mumbled under my breath
"Hey we were looking for you!" Oliver exclaimed
"Oh so the means you can tackle me like a football player?!" I said, finally laying on my back where I could see them.
"No, we have just been doing that to every young girl in a dress. We even tackled Emily and Carly just for fun." Leo informed me
"You did what now!? Tackled every princess just to find me?! You do realize you just tackled 100+ royal girls right?" I said half yelling at them half informing them

The looks on their faces were priceless. They looked like two deer in a headlight. I couldn't help but laugh at them, and their thinking skills. Them their looks changed to evil grins. Uh-oh. Whatever they were about to do, I knew it wasn't good. Suddenly I realized I never went to my parents. I looked over and they were talking to the Italian cook. Oh I guess they weren't waving at me to come over. I changed my attention back to Oliver and Leo.

"Will you two freak shows get off of me?!" I said smiling a little
"What freak shows? I don't see any little girl" they both said
"You annoy me when you talk in unison" I told them
"Oh ok so now I know your weakness! Haha!" Oliver screamed at my face

Oh right I never told you who tackled me onto the cold hard wooden floor. It was Oliver, that dang kid. He tackled me like I was nothing, and then Leo made it worse. It never crossed my mind that these two were hooligans, and they would tackle a princess. Not that I really care..... It just looks like I'm oblivious to everything now, because apparently they were screaming my name. I guess I was so focused on getting over to my pa......

"Hey wait a second! You knew what I was wearing! No one else in this place had this color dress on! You just tackled the other princesses for fun!" I said shouting at them
"Shh quiet down cute tiny little princess, we don't want everybody to hear you." Oliver said covering my mouth with his hand.
"Yea we didn't know what your dress looked like, we just went by your face." Leo added quickly
"EWW you are uh so gross!" Oliver screamed after I licked his hand so he would move it.
"That's your fault for putting your hand over my mouth! And you did know my dress color! Remember? You have to look down at me!" I exclaimed
"You have a loud mouth, don't lick me again or I'll like slap you!" Oliver said covering my mouth again. I shot him a glare.
"Yea I do have to look down on you" Leo replied
"I don't have to," Oliver said quietly. "We are the same height, 4'10. Well.... Actually roughly. I'm like 5'0."

I removed Oliver's hand from my mouth by picking it up with my hand before speaking
"Whatever. Can you get off of me now? This is getting awkward."
"... Nah" they both said
"Fine whatever" I said

We sat there talking for a little bit more. And then it got really awkward. Like I mean really awkward. So I pushed them both off of me, and quickly got up. I was about to walk away to go catch up with Carly, Emily, and Derrick When I was suddenly grabbed by a hand.

A/N

Hey! I have decided that I will try and update every 5 days. If I get busy don't get mad. I raise livestock to bring and show them at county fairs. I have to work with them everyday along with homework and so I sometimes may not be able to update on schedule.
Hope you enjoy this chapter!

(Also if it says Mackenzie instead of Bella its because I forgot to change it)
