The very next day Misty woke up at 5 with out Violet having to wake her, in fact Violet woke up to Misty doing her hair and putting makeup on.
"What do you think your doing?" Asked Violet jokingly.
"Oh you know... Things.w said Misty nervously as she put a white sash around her black knee high dress. Violet laughed and put on her tight, long sleeve dress, which was also black. All the servants whore black, it was basically their uniform. Violet had sewn white lace on the end of the dress and sleeves a while back to make them look different then the rest.
Misty was skipping to the castle by six with Violet following behind. She skipped up the stairs to start the fire in Jake's room. Misty was so busy humming the music from the ball that she didn't even notice Jake sitting up right in bed starring at her. It wasn't until she was half way done did she realize this. She stumbled back and nearly flipped over the couch.
"Oh my gosh Jake! You scared me half to death!" Gasped Misty
"Yeah I can see." Laughed Jake as he got out of bed. Misty had gone back to work on the fire and had gotten it big and hot when she felt muscular arms wrap around her waist. She strained her neck around to see Jake smiling mischievously, obviously waiting for her to look at him. He lifted her off the floor and swung her around as she let out a playful scream. Misty could feel his muscular arms flex around her as she laughed even harder. Just the the king and queen came busting through the door and Jake quickly put Misty down and bowed while she curtsied as low as she could without her nose touching the ground. The King and Queen simply nodded to her and looked back at their son and the King said
"Jake we want a word with you."
As the Queen looked distaste fully at Misty who dared not to make eye contact.
Jake and his parents left misty alone as they went to their bedroom.
"So you know that princess of Eutopia?" Asked the King.
"um, yeah."
Well, is she the one?" He questioned quit loudly.Jake was completely takin aback from his father's question and nervously replied "yeah... I think so."
"We'll then why don't we invite her to dinner!"
Jake was shocked at his fathers response. "I um oh wow hmm." Blabbered Jake. "Look at the lad to happy for words!"yelled his father as he hugged the queen.
When Jake returned to his room he ran over to Misty, picked her up and threw her on the bed.
"What's going on?" laughed Misty after she recovered from his surprise attack. "Your gonna be a princess a while longer."
"What! Why?"
So Jake explained the whole conversation he had with his dad and how he reacted to everything and Misty was so terrified and overjoyed she thought she was going to be sick! Misty left after she and Jake had devised a plan. She went to the kitchen where Violet was making lentil soup for the royals while some other maids made a huge, cheaper pot of it for the other servants.
"Violet you'll never believe what's about to happen." Said Misty.
"Oh really? What?" Asked Violet
"I'm going to be invited to dinner by the king himself!"
"What! A servant? Really!"
"Well, no but the princess of Eutopia is."
Violet's smile crashed and yelled "are you crazy! You do realize that the queen would probably recognize you right!"
