Prince in Disguise [POOFLESS ROYAL STORY]

1

Note: dialogue will say Prince Aaron but Pete/Brandon calls him Rob when they're alone and Rob calls him Pete

(The castle)

"Ah, Prince Aaron! Glad for you to join us!" The King of Regne greets as I enter the conference room and take my stand next to my father.

"Good evening, your highness," I respond bowing, him doing the same. Out of all the surrounding kingdoms, King Daryl is by far my favorite, and I'm good friends with his son, Pete aka Prince Brandon.

"Has Prince Brandon, by chance, accompanied you on your journey?" I question wondering if I'd be able to see my best friend. Actually, he's really my only friend, but that's just one of the many cons of being a prince. He's lucky because he doesn't want to be king either, but has an older sister to take that up while I'm the eldest of my sister, Rosalind, and me.

"I'm sorry my dear boy, but he has stayed in Regne to help my wife, Esmeralda, with some loose ends. He told me to say he hopes to talk to you soon and wishes you the best," the King explains and I only nod, a sad, but understanding, nod because my best friend didn't come. The thing is, this would all be okay is I had a phone and I could easily text my best friend, but mother and father don't want to take the risks of giving me a workable phone. I'm barely allowed to have a record player in my room, and it's hard to find a good record in the town.

I excuse myself after awhile of Daryl and my father, King Nicholas, just talking about politics etc. The only reason I came to the meeting was because my father said its good to "get a feel of what it's like being king" and to also greet King Daryl. Right after I'm outside, I take off my crown and simply hold it at my side since it's uncomfortable for sitting on my head almost all day.

(His crown ^)

I decide to head out into the garden when my mother and the gardeners planted the roses.

The garden is absolutely my favorite place out of the whole palace. It's obvious the queen puts time and effort into it and every year she hosts a contest for the peasants that the one with most beautiful flower, she will plant in her garden and they will become a royal gardener along with her. My mother cares about Royaume, but she cares more about the inhabitants while my father really cares about making sure everything is in order and how he likes it. He isn't a dictator or anything besides, mother would never allow it anyway.

I sit on the stone bench that sits in front of the water fountain my mother had specially made for the garden.

(The fountain ^)

It's quite weird because it's not that simple, yet it's one of the simplest things on the palace grounds. Even the cups and plates in the kitchen have some hand painted design that took forever to paint.

All of the sudden, the sound of a bush rustling makes me alert. I jumped off the bench in surprise seeing the bush I once had to my back to, shaking. I tried looking around me for some sort of weapon in case it was criminal. Most people would think "why would anyone be after me anyway?" but I don't have that thought. Instead the only words that run through my are ones my mother would not approve of. "Rob," a voice whisper, it sounds like it's coming from the bush. Oh my god. are the only words I can process.

"W-who is th-ere?" I stutter, a habit when I'm nervous.
"Boo!" a voice whispers into my ear from behind making me almost scream out before a hand is covering my mouth and a laugh filling my ears. I turn around and glare at Pete who's in tears, his own crown on the ground since it feel off his head. "Y-your face was priceless. Oh my gosh I wish I could've let you scream but then the whole town weekend I'll be a frenzy," he says through scarce laughs. After awhile he stops laughing while I only glare at him crossing my arms. "Aww is the little princey loss his crown?" he fake pouts jutting out his bottom lip.

"It wasn't funny, Peter!" (I meant to put Peter idk why tho) I protest throwing my arms up in the air for effect.

"Oh contraire, it was hilarious," he takes his crown from my hand and puts it on his own hair. I walk and pick his crown off the ground and place it on my own. Something we've done for as long as we've known each other.

(Pete's crown ^)

"You're father said you weren't coming," I explain sitting back down on the bench. Pete sits next to me.
"We thought we'd give you a nice surprise," Pete smirks.

"Yeah, nice."
"You should be happy to see me you pleb." Pete chuckles punching my shoulder in a brotherly way. "Besides, you father told me to come because there's something he's announcing apparently. Oh wait, I shouldn't of told you that," he curses u dear his breathe, cheeks turning red in embarrassment.

"What is her going to announce? Do you know if anyone else knows? Oh God what if he wants me to become king early! I still have two years of freedom! What if he's taking it from me?" I panic sweating buckets.

"Hey, he wouldn't do that to you. You might think he's a bad father, but he's not terrible. Besides, I'll be by your side, bud."

"Yeah, I guess," I sigh hiding my face in my hands.

"You know I'm right. Let's go in, I want to get some ice cream before they request for us."

quick note: you might think the first few chapters are going really fast and that's because they will be because I just really want to get to the part where Rob gets into high school :)
