Well I guess the book description basically sums up most of the story. I'm Diomedes, I used to live in a little house behind the royal's castle. Back then I had never been inside, well... I've gone to joke around the kitchen and annoy everyone, but I don't think that counts. I'm not allowed inside untill I'm 15 which will be in a few hours. My dad works inside, along with all my brothers and sisters, which are 3. Sandra, Daria and Thomas. My story Is Really long... And since I'm going you tell it to you, I might aswell start from the beginning.
----------------------------------------------

Driiiiiing! Driiiiiiing! Driiiiiiiing!

Ughhhhhh... I roll over and put a pillow on my head.

Driiiiiingggggg! Driiiiiiingggg!

Ugh fine! I yell in my mind. I lean over and turn the clock off. 6:35am

Drin-

Finally. I wrapped myself in my blanket. Ugh! Who on earth wakes up this early! Who put my alarm- I jump out of bed and run through my drawers. Oh no. Oh no. Gosh I'm so stupid! I hit myself hard in the head and change as fast as I can. I jump into the bathroom, wash my teeth and run out of the door. Gosh how can I be so dumb! Ugh. Now I'm late! I can't be late to meet the king! And besides I was OBVIOSLY going to get lost in there! Ugh. I keep hitting myself hard in the head as I run through the corridors. I stop infront of a big oak door. Maybe someone here will know where I have to go. I see a sign above the door. Gema romo. Stupid dyslexia. I keep trying to read it. Cause if this is the Kings room, I don't want to barge in! "Ga-gam-e?" I say out loud as I twist my head to one side. Like I do most of the time. "Game rm- ro- room!" Uff. It's not the Kings chambers. Ha ha ha.

Just as I was about to turn the door handle, the door Infront of me opened. "I do not! And I repeat. Absolutely am not going to! Ugh!"

She turns around stomping and slams into me. We both tumble to the floor.

She shrinks as she lands ontop of me. Her dark curls framing my face, blinding me.

"Who- oh my god! I'm sooo sorry!" She says as she slides off of me landing on her knees next to me.

I laugh and get a look at her. Oh my god... Her yellow eyes are dazzling. Her curled hair falls mid-back, letting it's dark color shine against the light. She looks pale, italian maybe. I look up and try not to stare at her gorgeous smile.

She is wearing an elegant but simple red dress with sequins on the top. Gosh... She's beautiful. She starts laughing and I feel like I'm going to melt, though along comes a huge dejavu feeling, I don't know why... She stands up and gives me her hand. I gladly take it and she pulls me up.

I smile and scratch my neck. "Eh... Hi. Sorry... For the um..."

She laughs but her smile dosen't quite reach her eyes. She must have a difficult past, or is suffering at the moment. But her eyes search me for something. She's checking me out. I snort in my head. Yeah right. This girl checking me out. Gosh Dio this time your ADHD got the best of you. "I'm Tiara and you are?" She says smilling and putting out her hand. She's Tiara? No she's not! she's beautiful. Wait- Tiara? Where have I heard that name??? I know it from somewhere... But where. I shrug it off and I smirk as I shake her hand.

"I'm Diomedes BLA BLA BLA. But... You can call me Medes. " I say winking at her. She giggles at this. Wow, did I just make her giggle? Nice man! She looks as surprised as me. She covers her mouth, her eyes wide.

"You don't have to cover your giggles sunshine they're sooo cute." I say and roll my eyes in the sooooooooo and put out my hand near my face like the popular girls In the movies, just to make her laugh. She blushes and laughs. Wow a giggle and a blush all in one go. Good thing no one knows me around here. I can start a new! Yey! Talked yo soon... A voice interups us.

"Your highness? Their mayesties are waiting for you." A little girl about two years less than me says to Tiara.

Oh no. She's the princess. Gosh I should have known. She was just too good to be true. My smile slowly fades from my face. But then she does something I never thought a royal does. Her face fills with anger or annoyance. Idk. She turns on her heel and kinda yells at the girl. "Sabine! Tell them I don't and won't go! Ugh! Thank you!"

The girl rushes away with a scared face. I look at her as she turns around still fuming. Then her face drops as she realizes I'm down.

"Sooo... Your the princess?" I ask trying not to punch her and myself in the face. God I'm stupid!!!!! So stupid! For thinking I could have anything with Tiara. The princess! She frowns.

"Medes... Uh. Yeah I am." She said looking down sadly.

"Oh." Is all I could say. She looked up and grabbed my hand as she pulled me along the corridor.

"You okay? You look de-" She cuts me off and stops in her steps.

"Yeah I'm fine." She says sighing. I look at her and she looks at me with... Longing?Oh no. I'm going crazy. Seriously. I'm going crazy. Really crazy.

"You must be the new..." She trails off. Probably dosen't know what word to use without hurting me.

"Yeah I am. I'm suposed to be looking for princess Anneliese. Do you know where I can find her?" I say, disappointed it's not her and kinda relieved beacuse if I did serve her I would end up falling in love with her and that would be a complete and total desaster.

She puts her hands on her hips and raises her eyebrows at me. Telling me with her expression really? I just stare at her, clueless. I didn't know princess's were allowed to do that... She sighs and puts her arms down.

"Your looking right at her mister." She says snapping her fingers and adding a little sass to her voice. I think she's too normal for a Princess. But god I can swear her beauty isn't from this planet. I hear her laugh beside me as we walk to her room.

"What? You think I'm an alien then?" She says gasping for breath inbetween laughs.

I raise an eyebrow, "huh?"

She copies my look and says. "You just said that aloud."

My eyes widen as I figure out what she is talking about, my cheeks beging to heat up and I know I might look worse than a tomato holding it's breath. This isn't the first time I think out loud. I've done it since I was little. She laughed and it sounded like bells. I could get used to this. I will get used to this. A beautiful girl to take care of everyday? How lucky am I now? Maybe this won't be as bad as I thought. Maybe I will be happy. Snap out of it a voice says in my head.

Why would the princess ever want a scrawny boy,with dyslexia and ADHD? She could have any boy she wanted, so why him? What makes him so special? He inwardly sighed. Part of him knew he was right, but another part, a little part, made him wonder. What if...
