" Welcome to the palace little boy! You will absolutely adore your time here at the Emmits." A woman speaks to the little boy.
His name is Christopher, and he is 8 years of age. His parents dropped him off at the palace gates and told the guard that he wanted to work there. The guards brought this to the attention of the royal family and they decided not to turn him away. The secret was, the boy didn't really want to work at the palace. His parents just didn't want him around any longer, and he knew that was the reason.
Christopher nods his head at the woman who had been speaking to him. He was listening up until he saw a little girl. The girl looked about his age with long blond hair that was messy all over and two front teeth missing. She had on a pretty purple dress that looked really soft.
The girl pressed her fingers to her lips as to say not to tell anyone she was there. The woman that was talking to Christopher previously was now hugging him, then she walked away.
When all the adults had gone back to work the girl ran up to him. She didn't say anything, just grabbed his hand and started running. He followed without hesitation. She brought him to the garden at the back of the extravagant home, and they hid behind a rose bush.
"Im Emily." the girl said, "And one day I am going to be the queen."
The boy staired at her like she was crazy but then remembered the day all of the towns people celebrated her 6th birthday. He remembered wishing he could have the whole town celebrate his birthday. So the boy stood, still completely covered by the rose bush and looked down at her.
"Im Christopher." he said "And one day I will be the one to put the crown on your head." He smiled a toothy smile and the girl smiled back.
