Once a Princess, always a Princess

Chapter 8

“Eeeeeek!” I squealed. I had been continuously squirted with washing up liquid by Xavier and was now being tackled to the ground and covered head to toe in the stuff. Every inch of my bare flesh was sticky with the slime, my skin turning a pale shade of green.

I struggled under Xavier’s strong embrace as he wiped egg from his hair and mushed it into my own.

“Ewwwwww, Xavier stop it!” I wriggled around under him, trying to break free.

“Paybacks a b*tch huh Addybaby?”  He smirked down at my evilly. Uh oh. I braced myself for what was to come.

Hands lapped at my face as Xavier proceeded to wipe his sticky grubby mutts over my mouth and eyes. I squealed again but that was a bad decision because some stickiness dripped into it, I could taste raw egg and washing up liquid on my tongue.

“Ewwwwww.” I mumbled not daring to open my mouth too far in case of another inhalation of soapy raw egg. I started trying to wipe the taste away with my hand but that was another bad decision because my hands were covered in washing up liquid so only made it worse. I started spluttering and coughing, trying to rid myself of the taste though it was to no avail. Being so concerned with the sickly taste I didn’t notice that Xavier was no longer torturing me. I opened an eye that had previously been squeezed tightly shut. Xavier was stood looming over me, admiring me like a piece of art work. I sent him a questioning gaze.

“You look good if I do say so myself.” He mused smirking at me.

Ok, I was confused, why was this weird boy so……well……weird?

I stood up and heard a chuckle from Xavier. “Defiantly your best look yet.”

I wondered what on earth this boy was talking about when I looked down at myself startled to find my body covered in hundreds of brown crisping leaves. I looked like they did on the movies only it wasn’t feathers that I was covered in.

“Xavier!” I scolded. “This is not funny!”

His chuckle had turned into full frontal laughing now and his body was shaking rapidly.

I scowled at him. Paybacks a b*tch huh? I thought evilly to myself as a plan formed in my head.

I launched myself at Xavier’s back and clung onto him with one arm like a monkey while I dosed him in washing up liquid with the other. Once done I jumped back of him and turned to face him.

“He. He .he.” I laughed an evil villain’s laugh.

He raised an eyebrow at me, unimpressed. Dang I thought I actually sounded pretty evil.

“What are you? An evil mouse?”

“Hey!” I pouted. “Don’t be mean. That was my best evil laugh.”

He shook his head at me. “Oh, Adonnia. You're such a naive little evil mouse.” He looked pointedly to the ground where I threw the empty washing up liquid bottle. “You’ve ran out of ammunition. What are ya gonna do now?”

I mentally laughed at his cocky exterior; he wouldn’t be so cocky when I wiped that smug look of his face.

Part A of my plan -put on the innocent act. I looked down shocked at the empty bottle as if I didn’t know, then let out a small squeak before running away and just like I wanted, he followed.

As I raced as fast as I could toward the stables I could hear his creepy psycho voice again.

“I’m coming for youuuu!” And to say he laughed at my evil villain laugh. Gosh that boy.

As I reached the stables I hid behind the corner away from Xavier’s view.

I could hear his shallow breathing as he approached.

“Come out come out wherever you are.” He sang.

I supressed a giggle and did part B of my plan, I stuck my foot out just in time for him to trip on it and fall flat into the mud puddle waiting for him on the other side. I burst out laughing as the mud surrounded him, covering every inch of him in brown dirt, his white t shirt now a green and brown mess. I held my hand to my mouth trying to stop the laughter as he rolled over in the mud to face me. His face looked like he had been dunked in a mud pie, and the clay was dripping of his chin like a beard. The expression on his face was priceless. I keeled over as tears streamed down my face, if only I had a camera.

“Well!” I heard Xavier say from below me on the ground. “Aren’t you going to help me up?” I glanced over to him and the anger in his eyes made me laugh even harder.

“o-one m-minute.” I shot at him between giggles.

He rolled his eyes and huffed. “Anytime today would be nice Adonnia.” He complained.

I took a deep breath and straightened up “ok, I’m ok.” I told him.

He looked at me incredulously. “Oh I’m sorry, do you need another minute because you know, I’m actually quite enjoying this mud bath.” He replied sarcastically.

I giggled. “Oh calm down there mister grumpy pants, don’t get you knickers in a knot.”

He gave me a flat stare and extended his arm out to me. I rolled my eyes and took his hand preparing to lift him out when suddenly I was yanked forward and went hurtling into the mud pool next to Xavier. He burst out laughing. This was definitely not part of the plan. My head sank in the mud and I all but chocked it as it flooded into my agape mouth. I shot up out of it, spat the mud out and then turned with my death glare to Xavier’s cocky smile. Without a second thought I bent down, scooped up a handful of mud and aimed right at Xavier’s over cocky, over arrogant and overly huge egoistic head.

The war was back on.
