Royal Secret

Chapter 26- Why are you here?

Penny's P.o.v

"I am sick of repeating myself! If you don't concentrate and try to learn you will fail! "Mr Hamlet says... Well shouts at us. I'm really scared of he's health as he is going red.

Suddenly the door opens and the head teacher and Jace walks in.

" Sorry to disrupt but we have have a new pupil Prince Jason" The class gasp and start whispering. Why oh why. What have I ever done to deserve this. *Silently cries*.

"Erm Prince please come in. You can sit by Penny. Penny please raise your hand" I mentally groan raising my hand. "Next time without the groan". Whoops.

"Aw are you not excited to sit by me. I am hurt" he fake cries.

"oh grow a pair" I say opening the text book. Yay maths. "what are you doing here anyways? Is this what you had to tell me?"

"I apparently need to sit some exams and then I will be one step away from becoming a Pilot" he says smiling, which makes me smile. Since a young lad he wanted to be a pilot we would always play aeroplane games and I'd be the lovely cabin hostess, my older brother be the famous person we was taking somewhere and my dad would be his manger and my mom would be the mom who would argued with the manager.  So many good memories.

By lunch news had spread about the Prince's arrival as well as some of his pilot mates including Eleanor, Luke, Jed, Aston and Matt.

People also had spread Jace and I had become friends in first lesson and already started rumors saying I'm going to dump Zeke for Jace. Tommy was the first to tell me that and I didn't stop laughing for 10 minutes. Tommy didn't see what was so funny but before I had to explain Zeke came up to us.

"I'm going to borrow Penny for a while if that's okay Tommy?" Tommy simply and turns away. Zeke hooks an arm around me and starts walking to the lunch hall.

"So rumors have it you are going to dump me" Zeke says fake crying.

"Yep for the prince" I laugh.

"I'm sure am a better catch for you though. I mean with this body and this face you are one lucky girl. If I could date myself I would" he says jumping in front of me grinning.

"Hmm I wouldn't say I was that lucky" bobbing my tongue out I push him and run away.

I sit in my usual seat in the dining hall waiting for Zeke to catch up. It doesn't take long till he sits in his usual seat taking his lunch out and starting eating.

"Right I demand my money. She wore purple like I said so better start coughing it up" Zeke declared.  They all signed but handed over their money to a grinning Zeke.

"That'll buy me some new trainers" Zeke smirks as everyone glares at him.

"How are you with Jace being here" Ari asks quietly bringing me away from everyone.

"It's different but I dunno if it is a good or bad different. I'm gonna get sick of people saying I'm cheating on Zeke though and I'm sure he will too, ugh speak of the devil"

"Any room for 2 more" Jace says sitting down and pulling Eleanor with him.

"oh yes course we do just sit down and hello Eleanor nice to see you again" I say given Jace a glare and El a wide smile which she returns.

"hello guys" the wicked witch of the West says sitting down on the empty seat next to Jace.

"Anyone else want to sit with us" I say sarcastically.

Jaces mates sit down sept Aston who was with Harriet.

"erm hello" Tommy says sitting down next to Zeke with duke behind him.

"Omg is that my little Tommy being shy what have you done to the real Tommy " I mock in horror. He blushes looking at Jace and away again. "I'm messing with you, Jace this is Tommy , Tommy this is your celeb crush oh and that is duke next to him" this makes him blush even more and sends me and Ari into a fit of laughter. Payback is a real b*tch.

"Nice to meet you Tommy " Jace says holding a hand out. Tommy takes his hand still a bit flustered over the situation.

"This is Eleanor she's shy and adorably nervous, so be nice otherwise I will make your life hell" Jace says make her blush hard. They'd be a good couple. And after the promising date at the charity ball I say give it a month.

"Anyways. I am Chloe as you already know but would you like my phone number" says making Jace choke on the water he was drinking.

"Wow way to be blunt" Duke says making Ari and I laugh. Nothing like looking desperate.

"I'm sure he likes a girl to be blunt and out their otherwise he'd think they want him for his title and not who he is. Which is ridiculous" She says flicking her hair.

"Erm okay" Jace finally answers taking the paper and sticking it in his bag.

"It's amazing that you want to become a pilot, why did you chose that occupation?" She asks acting interested.

"She's really going for it isn't she" Zeke whispers to me.

"Like who'd want him for his title like obvs not me"

"Oh no I know him personally so I'm not just talking to him as he's the prince" Making me laugh.

"Well that Chloe seemed nice" El says as we all walk out of the hall.

"Nice! Nice! You must be sh*tting me. Stop being so Ellie. She was f*cking desperate that is what she was." Jace laughs.

"But Jace I love you for you I don't care about your title you could clean the streets for all I care" Zeke fake sobs hugging Jace who happened to be sitting to his left.

"Guards, Guards, GUARDS, get this peasant of ME!!" Jace joking screams trying to get a clingy Zeke of him.

"Thank you for welcoming into your friendship group" El says quietly to me.

"El you are always welcome and I know you like that daft idiot so don't be disheartened by Chloe she will try and get Jace but I know my brother and he looks at you like you are golden. He just needs to wake up and ask you out already" I say nudging her making her laugh and blush.
"Now who wants to come to mine later?" I ask knowing all of them will.

So here I am stuck in the middle of a blushing Tommy and Zeke. Ari, duke, Luke, beth, el and jace where here making themselves at home.

"Shall we order food and watch a movie?" Jace suggests and we all agree, expect Tommy who is to awe stuck over being in the same room as Jace. Duke nudges him.

"Yes of course Omg Yes!" he shouts making everyone look at him strangely before laughing.

"Come on you still can't be amazed I'm here can you" Jace asks.

"No no I'm not " "Yes he is"

"Shhhh"

Turning to a Tv I see a picture of myself talking on the phone.

"Last nights charity gala seemed to much for the princess after falling onto her brother she was caught out in the garden on the phone. She seemed extremely happy while on the phone and has lead to many wondering is this a boy she is seeing? We will have more soon"

"Ugh stupid idiots" jace mutters as everyone looks at him confused.

"She has a boyfriend?" Tommy asks been the keen Royaler here.

"Its complicated and for some reason she likes him and no matter how hard I try to talk away from him she just goes back every time." He says making us laugh at his rant.

Oh if only they knew that he was actually sitting in this room.
