Her Highness h.s

Chapter 13 (Tea without sugar)

It's been 2 weeks since our accident with Harry. I've been avoiding him and Jess in school. Well, it's normal for Jess to forget about her friends when she's in a relationship so she hasn't even noticed my attempt to avoid them.

"Liliya" My mother knocks on my door and steps in.

Really, why does she even knock when she doesn't even wait for me to let her in.

"Yes, mother" I stand up from my bed and stretch.

"I came to inform you, we are attending a teaparty later today" She says while looking at my piles of clothes in the floor and shakes her head in disappointment.

"A tea- what?" I flicker my eyelashes and start to clean up my clothes from the floor.

"A teaparty, Our lovely british neighbour Mrs. Anderson is keeping it at her house today. We are invited and it is important for you to come"

"Why is that, mother?" I try not sound rude. She's my mother and I have to be respective when I talk to her.

"Because, we need you to start socializing with people, after all you're a princess"

"B-but no one knows..-" I stutter.

"That is just a little detail, remember to behave and here's the dress you have to wear" she takes the dress out of the bag she was holding. The dress is puffy and beige. A little too covering for my taste, but I can't really say no to my mother.

No is not an option when it comes to my parents.

"You have 2 hours to prepare" she says and leaves my room.

I shower and wear the dress. It's quite nice, I kinda do look like a princess in it. I do my makeup, little lighter than usual.

After I'm finish, I go downstairs and my mother and Mary gasp together.

"You look so beautiful, Miss Liliya" mary compliments me and my mother nods and smiles at me.

"Let's go, our driver is here, love" my mother informs me.

A british teaparty? Really....

Let's see how it turns out.

As we arrive to the teaparty, everyone is already sitting in their places and enjoying the little sweets and tea.

"Liliya, you can go sit with them" She points at a table where sits a boy and two girls. They seem to be my age.

I hesitate but my mother's glare makes me almost run towards the table.

I sit next to the boy because the girls don't seem to like me. They don't even bother to introduce themselves.

Cocky bitches.

The boy smiles kindly at me. He has brown eyes and brown hair. He kinda resembles David Beckham. He is pretty attractive also.

"Hello, I'm Liam. Nice to meet you. " he says. I can sense a little bit of accent through his words.

"I'm Lilly" I say and laugh nervously.

This is so new to me, because everyone is so businesslike and then there's me.

We begin to talk about school with Liam and it turns out that he's in my history class.

"Lilly"

I look to find Gemma smiling at me.

She comes to sit with us and she starts to talk about how she had to help with decorating the party.
