"May, I am so sorry," Dawn said with sympathy as May was in her room, brushing her hair. May was wearing a dark maid dress with a black bow on the back and white apron. She had on her black socks and black shoes. Her hair was up in a ponytail.

May looks down and sighs. "I wish things were not like this," she whispers with sad eyes. Her sparkles have died.

"I know! We should plan for your escape! I will plan it all out for you! You just have to do what you want to do! Then, you can be charming with your prince charming!" Dawn exclaimed with her eyes sparkling.

"What about you, Dawn? If I was gone, then you have to marry Brendan! I don't want you to leave your knight!" May exclaimed.

"Don't worry, things will work out perfectly. Paul will understand. Or maybe when you become the Queen you can help me!" Dawn replied.

"Oh thank you, Dawn!" May said as she gave Dawn a big hug.

"Now, let's help you survive today and get into planning," Dawn said as she helps May with her hair.

In the castle, Prince Drew is still walking, or more like pacing around the room. His servants all stare at him and watch him walk around with Ash and Misty sitting on the chair, sharing a bag of popcorn and watching Drew like they are watching a movie.

"How dares that Birch gets into my own business. Oh and now he is acting like he is the boss just because he is going to get married to a maid!" Drew exclaimed.

"The maid is from the Maples family. Her name is May. I think that it is quite similar to your Maybelle since if you delete the Belle, it will be May," Gary said as he looked back into the invitation Drew got that morning for Brendan's wedding next month.

"Oh really," Drew exclaimed. He gave notice that way before and is wondering if May Brandon is engaged to be the same person he had met that night at the ball.

"I can ask Dawn if you want, Your Highness. This May is from her family after all," Paul said.

"I don't know. I really don't know anymore. This is all mixed up. I think I am going to explode," Drew said.

"Well, you do have her bracelet, right?" Ash asked.

"Yea! I mean, if I would go around everywhere and ask for the owner of it then all the girls will claim that it is theirs!" Drew said.

"But it is quite small for a teenager. This girl you have fallen for sure has the smallest pair of hands. Even I can't put it on," Leaf commented as she tried to put on the bracelet but it got stuck in the middle. Everyone looks at her. Leaf is right, she has the smallest pair of hands anyone has ever known in the kingdom and she can't fit in.

"Maybe we should have another ball? I mean, she did come to that ball before but never the earlier balls. Maybe she is a servant, not a noble, that is why she goes to the nobles and servants ball not the nobles only ball. Based on what you told me, this girl had good manners, so she must be a top maid for a family. So why don't we make our last ball the same thing and hopes that she comes? If you see her, you can make sure of the bracelet. She has to know what hers is, right?" Gary suggested.

"That is a good idea! Why haven't I thought of it before!" Drew exclaimed as he stopped pacing around.

"But the last dance of the season is in two months, after Brendan's wedding. If the girl Brendan is marrying is your girl, then you are a bit late," Paul pointed out.

"Yeah right. Then what should I do?" Drew exclaimed. Misty walked over and hit him on the head with her mallet.

"Prince Drew. You are the prince and you need a clear mind. Calm down! I am telling you, let's ask Dawn to see if she can delay the wedding until after the last ball of the season," Misty said with her arms folded and looking at Drew.

"I know, but it is very dangerous. Dawn may get hurt. After all, she is Paul's" Drew cried.

"We will see," Gary said.

In the family, May was in Dawn's room, getting ready for the afternoon. Her meeting with Brandon was the usual. She was still shocked that Brendan agreed to marry her and even paid for it. She is helping Dawn to do her hair for her secret meeting with Paul.

"May, I have a perfect plan! We are going to escape. You and I! I don't want to leave Paul and I want to help you too. I have planned that we will leave at night. Tomorrow night. We are going to get out of here and change our identities. All we need is outfits. I can get them ready. All you need to do is to be normal. I will meet you tomorrow night at midnight in your room," Dawn explained.

"Dawn! You don't have to! You are leaving your perfect life!" May exclaimed.

"Don't worry, I will be fine. I don't like someone watching over me anyways and to hide my relationship with Paul. Do you know how many times I have close calls with Mother? It is like that every time! If she ever finds out, we are dead," Dawn explained as she touches the purple stone she wears around her neck all the time.

"Thank you, Dawn. I will listen to you," May said.

"Now that is my little sister! Now, help me pick out my outfit! I want to do some shopping with you today!" Dawn exclaimed as she had already forgotten the sadness.

"Of course, my Princess," May giggles as she helps Dawn pick out a dress and go to the market to shop, with Lady Trancy and Brianna.
