-The next morning-

As I was sleeping peacefully, I heard the door fly open and I quickly opened my eyes.

"Princess it's time to get up" she said.

Five people walked in.

I pulled the blanket over my head.

"Just a couple more minutes"

"But your majesty, there is a lot that must be done today" she said.

I moved the blanket off my head and got up.

What in the world is this.

"The bath is prepared for you" she said.

Wow my bath even gets prepared.

She led me to the bathroom.

This is to much for me to handle.

When I was done and walked back into the room.

I saw a casual dress on the bed.

"What the heck"

"Is everything okay, your majesty?" she asked.

"Do I really have to wear this"

She nodded as she placed heels on the bed and left.

"I can't believe this"

I put the dress on and heels.

This is ridiculous. I'm no princess, I'm not special. I just want to go home.

I don't even want to be bothered today.

I sat on the bed when someone knocked on the door.

"Go away"

"Well, if you insist" he said.

"Devin" I whispered.

I quickly went and opened the door.

"Hey princess" he said smiling

"Ugh, please don't call me that"

I gave him a hug.

I felt like I haven't seen him in forever.

"So, I see you've adjusted to the princess life" He said.

I looked at him, and he started laughing.

"Very funny. Technically I was forced with no choice but to put this on"

We both begin to laugh.

"Well I guess I mindswell tell you that the king wants me to be your personal bodyguard" he said.

"Are you serious. Why?"

"Uh, just to make sure your safe" he said.

"Safe. Safe from what?"

"Umm...you know it's not just me watching over you too" he said

Completely dodged the question.

"Who else is there?"

Suddenly a well dressed guy stood in front of the door.

"That other person is me...princess" he said.

"Who are you?"

He walked in and grabbed my hand.

"Let me introduce myself. I'm prince James. It's nice to meet you Proncess Lexi" he said

"Yeah okay she gets the point" Devin said as he moved my hand away from his.

"I can't believe the king wants you to watch her aswell" he said looking at Devin.

"Um, how do you guys know each other?"

"When my parents died and I would visit the king at times, I would be his personal bodyguard" Devin said.

"Yeah and a bad one at that. He use to play pranks on me all the time, and pay the price too" he said as he smirked.

As we were talking a lady had came in.

"Princess, the king wishes to have tea with you" she said.

"With me" I repeated

"Yes your majesty" she said.

"I will escort you there myself princess" he said.

"You mean we will escort her there" Devin said.

"I most certainly prefer me, but I guess you can come along aswell" he said.

I giggled, as we walked out the room.
