Be My Princess: Keith with a twist

Chapter 18

Minerva's POV

I sighed as I headed towards the door of my house.

I was met by my mom as soon as I entered the living room. "Hi, Minerva." "Hi, mom. I'm just going to go upstairs and rest a bit. 'Kay?" "Sure, honey. Tell me when you need a little bit of advice or something." I smiled. "Of course, mom. Love ya." "Love you, too."

I smiled at my mom as I headed towards my room. But was stopped by my phone ringing. Why is Keith calling me? Oh gosh. Why am I so nervous? Calm down, Minerva. Deep breaths.

After giving myself a little pep talk, I answered the phone.

"H-Hello?" I answered timidly. "Hey. It's me. Prince Keith." I scoffed while rolling my eyes.

"Well obviously it's you. What's up? Why'd u call me?" Pause. "E-Er. You see. Doyouwanttogoonadatewithmetoday?" I just stared at the wall. "What? Can you say that a teensy bit slower please?"

Pause. "Do. You. Want. To. Go. On. A. Date. With. Me. Today. Now did you hear what I said?" I stared at the screen of my phone, not believing what I had just heard. Then I smirked. "So. Then are you asking me out?" I asked, twirling my hair around and around with my finger. "Dammit. Why are you so difficult? Of course not. I'm not asking you out. I-I'm just taking you on a date." I laughed softly. "Asking me on a date is asking me out. Prince Keith." I said." You should get some dating lessons, Your Highness. You're way too clueless." I said. "Whatever. So is it a yes?"

I laughed. "Yes. Prince Keith. I would gladly go on a date with you."

I heard him sigh. "Thank goodness. I thought you were going to reject me and think about that embarrassment. Ahem. Anyway. I'll pick you up today at 3 PM. Okay? And dress casually. See you then."

"See you then."
