// Michael's Point Of View //

"Michael," my father called from the door.

"Yes," I questioned as he walked in and sat on the bed next to me.

"Mich-," he tried.

"Father, I told you not to call me that a million times. That's not my name," I said cutting him off.

"That is your name," he said a bit louder than what he last said.

"No dad it's not! My name is Ponyboy! That's the name mom gave me," I yelled at him.

"I do not care what your mother named you! She is gone and dead now and I'm going calling you by the more sophisticated name that happens to be your middle name," he screamed at me, face turning red with anger.

No one speaks of her like that! She was better than that and she should've been alive and not him! If she were here I'd never have to put up with this and I could actually be happy for once. He's cruel and mean while she was so kind and deserved way better than my father!

"Don't speak of mom like that," I yelled, pointing a finger at him.

"Michael do not​ argue with me! I am your father and you do as I say," he stated oddly calm.

"I hate that name and you know it," I mumbled quietly, looking at my lap.

"Well Michael, I have news​ for you. You are to be married soon so you may become king and look over the kingdom," he states, emphasizing my name.

"W-what no! I'm not doing that, I'm fourteen and I don't know them," I yelled, looking​ up at him, eyes wide.

"Too bad, you will be married and I do not care what you say," he states.

"I'm not going to marry someone I don't know. I want to meet the right person and actually fall in love. I will only marry a person that I am truly in love with," I said quietly.

"There is no such thing as true love. I was set up with your mother and I married her. The same thing happened to your brothers. Darryl​ married Olivia and Patrick married Jessie."

"I don't want to get married like my brothers did. They didn't fall in love with them, they were forced and I refuse to do that," I yelled again.

Darry married a beautiful girl named Olivia, she had blonde hair and hazel eyes, she was really sweet but only married for the money that she would gain. Soda married a beautiful girl named Jessie, she had bright red hair with sparkling blue eyes. The two girls had never liked me but I don't care, I never liked them either. My opinion didn't matter in the situation. My opinion never mattered!

"I do not appreciate the tone of voice you are using with me young man! You do not speak to me like that, you know better! Would you have spoken to your mother like that," he screams.

"No I wouldn't have because mom wasn't as cruel as you! I feel bad that she was married to you, she deserved better," I screamed, slamming my fist down onto the bed.

"There will be a big ball here and you will choose one of those ladies to marry whether you like it or not! If you don't, I shall select someone and you will marry, no questions asked," he yells standing up.

"I'm not marrying someone that I don't love," I yelled, standing up as well.

"You are not to come out of your room until I say you are! Do you understand?! This argument is over," he yells, his eyes blazing with anger.

"You can't do that to me! I'm not a little kid anymore," I yelled, motioning my hands in different directions, I was behind angry at this point.

"Too bad," he stated with a smirk.

He walked over to the door and walked out, closing it behind him. I huffed and walked over to the door and turned the knob, it was locked. That son of a bitch locked me in here! I kept pulling on the door knob but it didn't budge one bit. I gave up and walked over to my bed, sitting on it and placing my head into my hands.

This was all going to be terrible, forced into a marriage you don't want. I want to actually fall in love with someone and they actually love me back. Most girls just want the money that I have and that's all they cared about. I don't want to marry a girl like that, a brat, a stuck up snob, a money hungry bitch. No one was going to make me marry someone like that, ever. . .

I don't want to be prince, I really don't. Other boys think that it would be fun but it's not. If they want, I'll trade places with them, I want to see what it's like being a normal boy. It's not fun being prince, too many things to worry about, to many responsibilities. I don't want that life, I want to explore and go places.

Maybe I could go somewhere, dad would notice but I don't mind. I could sneak out in disguise and go out to town, see the people, be treated as if I wasn't Royal. I've never been out of the castle, too many guards protecting us and keeping watch. I want to see what's outside these castle walls, to see the real houses. It'll only be for a little while, then I'd come back before anyone noticed that I was gone, it was simple. . .
