"Why are you here?"
Isabella looked up to Merlin's familiar face before he just laughed. Isabella giggled a little before realizing that Cassandra was still downstairs and could possibly hear her.

Merlin snorted a little and Isabella laughed loudly, before putting her hand over her mouth to calm her laughter.
"But seriously, Merlin why are you here?" Merlin stopped laughing and looked at her face.

"I came to tell you that Arthur is hosting this ball in order to obtain a bride to marry so that he can take the throne."

Isabella's face fell and she sat down on the bed. Merlin sat next to her and patted her back before saying.

"That's why I came to tell you that you are going to the ball!"

Isabella's face lit up but then fell again when she realized that Cassandra and the girls are also going to be going to the ball too.

"But Merlin, I can't go. Cassandra and Ashley are going to be there." She said softly, so softly that Merlin almost couldn't hear her.

Suddenly the door burst open and Abby rushed in slamming the door behind her,
"Abby!!! Don't slam your door!" Cassandra yelled from the base of the stairs.

Abby rolled her eyes before looking back at Isabella. She sat on the bed next to Isabella and Said,
"Listen, Isabella. I know that my mother and sister don't like you, but I do! And if you want to go to the ball, I will help you and try and convince mother to let you go."

Isabella looked at Abby before embracing her in a massive hug.
Abby took Isabella's hand and opened the door and went down to the living room, where Cassandra was sitting picking her nails.

"Mother? Can Isabella please come with us to the ball tomorrow night? As my guest?"

Isabella said something as well, "I have my own dress that my mother gave me, Please Miss Cassandra?"

Cassandra looked at the two girls faces before something flashed in her eyes and she said, "Alright Isabella, but you have to complete all of your chores before tomorrow evening!"

Isabella nodded eagerly before disappearing into the hall and starting on her extra chores.

Cassandra laughed softly and Ashley then asked, "Mother are you really going to let her come?"

"No! She is way to ugly to go anywhere near the prince who is rightfully yours my little dear!"

With that said the two girls just laughed, not knowing that Abby was still listening.
