It's two weeks after coming to this new world. I'm staying in one of the guest bedrooms in Dorothy's castle, Leati. This castle is bigger than even the castle in The Lost Mountain, or even Minas Tirirth. The first week I spent my entire time exploring the walls of Leati. I couldn't even count all of the rooms. Dorothy even had an in ground swimming pool, but this one was different. When you entered the pool room, fumes would come from this sort of humidifyer, and after breathing them in for two minutes, you could breathe underwater. This ability was especially helpful with the underground tunnels, connecting to the pool. Most of these tunnels lead to outdoor ponds and hot springs. Almost every night Dorothy and I go swimming, but we probably wouldnt have time tonight, since the ruler of Frostwinds, Jessica Force, is coming to dinner with her. I wonder if she would let me come, I would really want to meet an actual real life witch! I haven't met any, let alone leave the sector at all. Rumors around town are that Jessica Force is the most beautiful women in all the world. She was described to have champagne pink hair and eyes so green she almost resembled a Green Eye. The rumor that she was one is also going around, but Dorothy said it was false. It was amazing how soon Dorothy adapted to being queen. It took longer for me to learn how to be a queen, and my kingdom wasnt even real. I really admire Dorothy, I have even more respect for her know that I know her. I grew up wanting to go to Oz like in the books and now I can!
"You might be able to go to the royal dinner" Dorothy stated.
"Really" I asked
"Only if you behave" joked Dororthy.
"What should I wear" I spoke as we walk down the hallway. This was my favorite hallway in the whole castle. My room was right across from Dorothy's. We were almost at our rooms as we talked.
"I have some spare gowns for you in your room" added Dorothy
"Gowns? Can't I just wear armor or something, and be a knight"
"Hey, I don't like all of this either, but the Frostwind people are very strict about dress codes. We don't want to offend them" Dorothy lectured.
"Fine, but you have to help me with my makeup" I said
"Okay, get dressed" Dorothy added
We walked in to each of our rooms at almost the same time. I walked into my large room. I was bombarded by yellows and pinks covering the bright walls. I opened the dark wood wardrobe to reveal a collection of beautiful dresses in all different colors. I found one that looked nice. It was pine green and yellow, lined with pearls. I didn't really know how this would look on me, I don't really have that feminine of a body. I was stunned once I looked in the mirror, this was probably the best I've ever looked. Now, I was ecstatic to meet the queen, hopefully now she won't judge me too harshly.
I walked out of my room and knocked on Dorothy's room. She answered quite quickly. Dorothy was in a small pink dressing gown. Once she saw me I noticed a longing gleam in her eyes as her mouth flew wide open.
"Charlie, you should wear that more often" marveled Dorothy
"You promised to do my makeup" I added
"Sure, come in" Dorothy said as she toke my hand and pulled me in to her room.
"One second, I'm just going to get dressed" Dorothy mumbled.
Dorothy's room was probably my second favorite room in the castle. It was humongous! The artist who painted it was on of the best. The design is something you can just stare at all day. It looks like flowers melting in to each other, but if you stare at it long enough, you can sort of see other things, like a magic eye puzzle.
By now Dorothy was done dressing, she changed in to a deep purple gown with little embroidered flowers and moons. She spinned around as her dress billowed around her.
"What do you think?" Dorothy asked
"You look gorgeous" I replyed
"I know" Dorothy beamed.
"Now for that makeup" added Dorothy
I jumped up from her bed and sat down at her vanity. I don't really know anything about makeup and I didn't really expect Dorothy to know much either. She didn't really seem like someone who would have a vast knowledge on vanity. She grew up a lot compared to the movies.
Dorothy opened a drawer from the side of her vanity. It was filled with all different shades of foundation. I was worried she might not pick the right shade, but it looked like she had done this before as the color she picked out matched me perfectly. She then took a small pink pouch and pulled out a pallet of blue eyeshadow.
"How do you know so much about makeup?" I asked
"My Aunt Anne taught me" Replied Dorothy
"Wow, she's actually real?" I pondered
"Yes, now sit still" Dorothy spoke.
Dorothy took a pink brush and lighly glazed my eyelids with colors of blue and white. She then pulled out a gorgeous color of pink lipstick and put on my lips. I looked straught in to her eyes.
"Thank you"
She paused for a moment, thaen replied.
"We should get going Jessica Force could be coming any minute.
