Killian Jones

Part 1

I looked in the mirror at myself making sure I looked perfect. I smoothed down the frills of my purple dress that fell to my ankles and met my black heels, I made sure the curls stayed in my brown hair and that my tiara is on right. I had my maid Clarabelle do my make up, she really made my brown eyes pop. I took a deep breathe trying to calm my nerves, I looked at the locket that hung around my neck. I heard a knock on the door, I turned my head to see Clarabelle walk in.

"Princess, a suitor is here to see you." says Clarabelle. She has long blonde hair that she keeps in a bun. She is wearing a pale yellow dress that falls to the floor with an apron over top of the dress. I turn my head and look back at my mirror, I place my fingers over my locket.

"Mother, please help me find a suitor I actually will fall in love with." I whisper to myself. I turn and walk over to Clarabelle. "I'm ready now." I say. Clarabelle smiles at me.

"Are you nervous dear?" she asks. I smile.

"I just hope this one isn't like the others." I say as Clarabelle leads me to the foyer to meet this suitor. Clarabelle and I reach the stairs and I can see my father, his brown hair sticking out from underneath his crown.

"Sir I have brought the Princess." says Clarabelle making my father look at me his brown eyes full of hope. He smiles at me as Clarabelle and I reach the bottom of the stairs.

"Thank you Clarabelle." Father says and turns to me. "Darling this is Luther Morris, Luther this is my daughter Desiree." says Father. I look at Luther, he is wearing a white long sleeve shirt with a red sweater vest and black slacks. He had shoulder length brown hair and hazel eyes.

"It's nice to meet you Luther." I say smiling at him. He takes my hand while bowing and kisses my knuckles.

"It is an honor to meet you Princess." he says as he stands up straight.

"Please call me Desiree." I say making him smile.

"As you wish." he says.

"Why don't you show Luther around the palace Darling?" asks Father. I smile at him and nod.

"Sure." I say and look at Luther. "If you will follow me Luther I'll show you around." I say he nods. I start walking towards the parlor. As we walked we talked about our likes, our dislikes, things we wish to happen in the future and things like that so we could get to know each other, but after awhile we finished the little tour in the courtyard. We walked over to the fountain in the middle.

"And this obviously is our courtyard." I say concluding the tour.

"You have a beautiful home here Desiree." says Luther.

"Why thank you. The maids like to keep it very clean." I say.

"I can see that. They do a wonderful job."

"Yes they do." I say as I turn and look at the fountain. As I look at it, it reminds me of when father would bring me here to cheer me up when I was a little girl.

"Desiree? Are you alright?" asks Luther. I look at him and smile and look back at the fountain.

"I'm fine. I was just thinking about when my father would bring me here as a child."

"Oh. Where is your mother?" he asks. My heart aches just thinking about how I never got to meet my mother.

"I never got to meet her. She died after giving birth to me, she barely held me before she was gone." I say as tears threatened to slip out.

"I am terribly sorry I asked."

"I-it's okay Luther." I say turning to him. He cups my cheek with his hand.

"You're beautiful you know that?" he says rubbing his thumb against my cheek. He snakes his other arm around my waist and pulls me close to him.

"W-what are you doing Luther?" I ask trying to get out of his grip.

"I want you to be mine." he says leaning in to kiss me. I push my hands against his chest.

"Guards! Someone help!" I yell. Luther pulls me closer to him.

"Shh. Don't ruin the moment I want a family with you Desiree." he says.

"You already have you cretin." I say as two guards run in along with my father. The guards pull Luther away from me and I run into my father's arms.

"Darling what's wrong?" he says as he rubs my back soothingly.

"He was trying to force me into having a family with him." I say. I hear father sigh.

"W-what I would never..." starts Luther.

"Are you implying that my daughter would lie to me?" asks father angrily.

"N-no o-of course not your highness." says Luther.

"Get him out of my sight." says father.

"Yes sir." says the guards. They take Luther away and father hugs me tighter.

"I'm sorry father." I say burying my face in his chest.

"For what Darling?" he asks.

"I haven't found a suitor yet. I'm sorry I..."

"You have nothing to be sorry for Darling. Take your time. I want you to be happy, as does your mother." he says and kisses the top of my head. I pull away just enough so I could look at his face, he smiles down at me. I smile back.

"I love you father."

"I love you too my Darling girl." he says.

"Your highness." says Clarabelle. Father and I turn and look at her.

"Yes Clarabelle? What is it?" asks father.

"Dinner is ready." she says.

"We will be there in a minute." he says. Clarabelle nods and walks away. Father looks at me again.

"You have another suitor coming tomorrow, so let's eat and get a good night's rest. Maybe this one will be the one." says Father. I smile and nod at him then we head towards the dinning hall.
