~ Gray Moments ~

~Ready To Live A New Life~

I woke up pretty early, I smelled something so good, I walked down to the kitchen to see my mom making blueberry pancakes. "Good morning" I said, I think I scared her she jumped a little. "O honey what are you doing up this early?" "I could barely sleep and I was a little hungry I forgot to eat last night at the party". "Well sit down and I'll make you a plate". I loved my mother's cooking it was really amazing, I know I'm going to miss it when I leave just the thought made me tear up a bit. She turned around and didn't even ask she just set my plate down and hugged me. "Eat up sweetie we have a very big day". I didn't bother asking because all I wanted right now was to fill my mouth full of pancakes.
Finally after 30 minutes went by everyone woke up, Well besides Ava she'll sleep all day if you let her, so I went up stairs to wake her up. She was sprawled out on my bed, I'm kind of glad she didn't do that while I was sleeping next to her all though she dose kick a little, I laughed to my self thinking about it. I tiptoed to the edge of the bed then out of nowhere I jumped screaming while landing right next to her she jumped up so fast and almost punched me in the nose, I busted out laughing and all you see from her is this death glare. Come on get up, mom maid pancakes. Her face lit up and she zoomed out of bed down stairs, "wait for me" I yelled while following her. By the time I got to the kitchen she was already stuffing her face. I laughed so loud, "what am I going to do with you". She smile and said with a big mouth full "you're going to love me".
After breakfast and some family time, around 5 o'clock we all got ready to go somewhere mom wouldn't tell me where she just said dress nice. So me and Ava ran up to the room to decide what we wanted to ware. "Can I where something of yours I didn't bring anything nice?" I laughed at her "like you even have to ask" she laughed and began digging through my closet. She then pulled one of my old dresses out, "you have to where this". It was a black silk dress that came to my knees and hugged me vary tight, the top was strapless with a little bit of bling on the bust it was very nice. She threw it at me and continued looking then she pulled out a red knee high dress that was also strapless, it was one of the dresses I wore for one of my birthdays. We finished getting ready and headed down stairs, I seen my brothers in suit and ties and my parents dressed so nice, I was really wondering where we were supposed to go. "Are we all ready?" my dad asked with the biggest smile on his face. We headed off towards the city, and I kept wondering where the hell we were going.
We ended up pulling into this extremely nice restaurant that was so exclusive it even had Vela. I was as confused as to why we where here, we all got out and dad went to talk to the small guy that looked like he was the one to seat you. "Ok come on this way" he said with the biggest smile on his face and waved his hand to signal us in. As I approached him he gave me the biggest smile and I kind of got a weird vibe from him. As we walked through the restaurant you could see so many fancy looking people sitting and eating expensive looking food I kept thinking to my self why are we here..
We walked a little further to the V.I.P entrance and it's like a whole new restaurant. We pass through this tunnel with sparkling lights everywhere if I didn't know any better I say we are in a club but as we come to the end of the lit tunnel it opened into this big old ball room, it was so breath taking there wasn't many people there but we walked to the middle of the room and as we where being seated I heard the waiter say "may I introduce Prince Justin Lee Trimble of the Carrabelle Kingdom".
My heart stop and everything went blank. "Alison" my mother called "snap out of it its not nice to stare". I started to get really agitated and angry, I stood up and began walking to the exit sign in the back of the room, Justin was calling my name and I believe he was following me, as I reached the door I opened it and it went out onto this balcony I looked up and I defiantly didn't feel like I was in the city. I walked to the end and stared up at all the stars, I've always loved looking at the stars they make me feel like anything was possible. "Amelia are you alright?" Justin asked while walking towards me. "Please call me by my name and not by something I have no idea about". "Alright Alison can you please talk to me?" I looked at him and gave him the go ahead look and looked back at the stars. "Look I never meant to hurt you or scare you I swear to you on that, I wanted to tell you that first night we met but Zack my Body guard wouldn't let me". "Wait you mean the guy that was with Ava, he was a body guard?" "I thought they were supposed to be big and in ugly black suits with dark shades or something". He laughed and said "he had to play the role of my best friend so no one would suspect anything witch it isn't really a role he really is my best friend actually, we grew up together in the castle", I rolled my eyes at that word like I still think I can't believe this. "Look Alison let's go back and eat I would love to meet your protection family and then after me and you will go off and have time so I will be able to tell you everything you wish to know". I nodded my head and followed him in, he held the door for me and my stomach began to have butterflies.
He walked me back to my seat and sat me down, he sat next to me and smiled I couldn't help but smile. "Is everything okay" my dad asked with a concern look on his face, "yes daddy everything is fine" I smile and the biggest smile on his face appeared. So we talked and ate for like 2 hours mostly about the kingdoms an how and why I was sent here and when I would go back you know the normal royal talk, I giggled to myself as my mother ask Justin "how did you run into Alison?" Justin smiled and said "actually that's exactly what happened, Alison was coming out of a boutique in the mall and I just ran into her and knocked her down". Justin, Ava, Zack and I all laughed together. We finally finished dinner and we where brought to our cars. "Mr. and Mrs. Gray do you mind if Alison goes with me for a little while? I promised her a full explanation and to take her to see the city lights". They both smile and nodded their head in acceptances.
We climb into to his 2022 black convertible Porsche it was absolutely breath taking. We drove off into the city lights and we drove everywhere I never seen so much of the city in my whole life. We drove for like an hour it felt like but I'm pretty sure it was only 20 minutes. We ended up on this really dark road towards the top of the mountains. "Are we leaving the city?" I asked really confused. "I'm taking you to a place Zack and I found the other day, don't worry we are almost there". He reached for the radio to turn it up and I smiled so big, they where playing my favorite song {dance monkey}. I started singing along and he just laughed, I started laughing as well. Five minutes past and I could see we where approaching an opening, we were on the side of the mountain, and pulled off to the side. We both got out and all I could do was just stare in amazement. It was so beautiful; there was a big tree with a little bench beside it. He grabbed my hand and led me to sit down. All I could do was smile the site in front of me was absolutely incredible. "You can see the whole city from here!" I said as I sat down. "Yea it's pretty amazing" he said as he wrapped his arm around me. "So what are we going to talk about?" I said trying to break the silence. "Anything you want to know! Is there something about the kingdoms you want to know?" I shook my head no "we already talked about them during dinner" "well what else would you like to know?" he asked. "Well for starters, how do I know all this if real? How do I know none of this is made up just as a prank or something? "He started laughing and looked at me funny, "Alison trust me none of this is fake, I can promise you that!" you were born as a princesses and I was born as a prince it just so happens our parents are close friends". We've actually met already when we were little kids; you were just too young to remember". "then how do you remember we look the same age?" "Actually I'm three years older than you and my grandmother would show me pitchers of us when we were little. I didn't know what to say so I just looked forward to the beautiful city beneath us. We sat in silence for a while before one question came to mind that I really wanted to know! "Justin, do you know my real parents?" he turned to face me with a confused look "what do you mean Alison?" "have you met them before?" he took a deep breath and looked forward again, "Yes I actually have, our country's are in an aliment with one another. So since the day we turned three we have been betrothed!" "what does that mean Justin?" "it means since the day we turned three we were bound to be married!"
