Terry Terry

Chapter 48 , "Life as it goes..."

The press started looking for Terry to ask him questions about the princess, but he wouldn't have it. He refused all the money they offered him.

Neil was telling everybody that he had been at St. Paul Academy and that he had met a young lady who was no other than Lady Candice Eleonor Grandchester, the prince's fiancée, and he dated her... In fact, he was telling Terry's story. It got to the ears of reporters who were desperate for a story on Lady Candy; they published the story in the tabloids. The television talked about it without confirming the information.

At school everybody was talking about Neil, he had become a celebrity. Allyson was talking to Terry who was with Brittany.

- Why don't you say he's lying?

- And make headline news at the loser with whom Lady Candy toyed with? Thanks, but no thanks. Neil is a loser, that suits him... the papers know me because I kissed the princess... the duke made sure to erase me from all the films in Scotland... it's like I've never existed for Lady Candy...

- She loved you Terry, said Allyson.

- Not enough to say goodbye to me... I'm not going to feel sorry for myself...

- Well Terry, you're hurt...

- That should teach me a lesson. Everybody told me she was out of my league... now my dear Ally, excuse-me, I have other things to do...

Terry left with Brittany. Jones arrive and looked at him go.

- He's still hurt?

- Yes, he loved Candy...

- And now he's unwinding...

oOoOoOoOoOo

In London, the duke was not happy to see Neil Reagan saying that he went out with Candy. He didn't want the reputation of the future princess to be tarnish by lies. He went to see his daughter at the castle.

- What's going on dad? Said Candy.

- There's your boyfriend who is telling everybody that you were going out at St. Paul.

- Terry? Said Candy surprise, that's not something he would do...

- He's on television! Said the duke

Candy, who was in the living room studying, turned on the television and she put the news channel.

- Dad, that's not Terry, it's that moron Neil Reagan!!!

- Who?

- The one who squealed on us...

- The one I have to thank for all this?

- I didn't go out with him!

- You didn't go out with boys from your school...

- Dad...

- When they're going to ask you the question on Neil Reagan, you're going to say that you didn't go out with him, because you were already dating prince Andrea.

- You don't want me to tell them that it wasn't Neil but Terry?

- You're going to say it was the prince... there is no way they're making you a slut...
