Sighing softly as I turned back into my seat,I looked down to find my hand shaking in my lap. Saying I was nervous was an understatement, this was a clear sign.

"Are you alright princess?" James said.

"Yeah I'm fine James." I said looking at him through the rearview mirror. I sat back in my chair. When we made it to the school I quickly hopped out of the car. The students bowed and I did the same before going back to what they were doing before.

"Princess, hoping out of the car before I can open it is a breach in security. I advise that you wait for me to open your door." James said.

"I apologize James for doing that I don't know what came over me." I said.

"Do you need to talk to somebody?" He asked.

"No, no it's nothing on the lines of that." I said.

"Ok princess." James said. This whole time having James around he never showed any expression on his face. I never seen him laugh or smile just a blank face. I walked over to my friends who was talking about something.

"Hey everyone." I said.

"Hey Gabriella, are you ready for tonight." Savannah said.

"As ready as I'll ever be." I said.

"You know what I haven't seen, Gabriella and Nathaniel go on a date." Spencer said. I looked at Nathaniel and he at me.

"Well we never have time to do it." I said. Nathaniel stood up and walked over to me. He took my hand, looked me directly in my eyes.

"I would be honored if you go out with me." He said. I notice there was a lot of students looking our way.

"I would love to go out with you." I said. His lips touched mine for a few seconds before ending the kiss.

"Looks like we have an audience." Emily said. I tried not to look around but it was hard to do.

"There will be none of that going on this morning." Mrs.Bakas said. We pulled away from each other.

"Sorry Mrs. Bakas." Nathaniel said. She turned away from us when the bell ranged.

"You don't think she would report back to my grandfather would you." I said.

"It wouldn't matter if she did or not the reporters would take care of it." He said pointing across the street.

"How long have they been there?" I asked.

"They've already been everyday hoping to get something good. Looks like we finally gave them something." Nathaniel said. I looked over and saw everyone of them have their cameras up snapping away. We walked hand in hand into the school.

"How long do you think it would be until a story hits the newspaper?" I asked.

"I give it til noon." He said.

Nathaniel was spot on when he said by noon there would be a story. I received an alert on my phone from Deadwood news just like everyone else in class. Even the teacher went for her phone. The headline read Princess Gabriella and Nathaniel Ashford are an Item, they went into explaining every detail about this morning. They haven't figured out what he was asking me but soon they will. There wasn't much there but how they will be keeping watch. Then a gossip column talked about the same thing but, what they were talking about was absolutely false

Are Princess Gabriella and Nathaniel Ashford dating or Is a Certain Ashford wants to be King

Greetings Deadwood, boy do I have juicy details for you. It looks like Princess Gabriella has her eyes set on a certain Ashford but is it all for show. Everyone knows that Arthur Ashford is a partner in the Ashford and Anderson law firm so what's stopping one of the most powerful man in law, son from dating the princess? Absolutely nothing just that a slight change of power could be in the works. Who knows we could be seeing prince Maximilian and Nina Amador love story all over again and everyone knows how that turned out. It could also be that Nathaniel Ashford wants to be the popular boy in school and just want everyone know that he's dating the princess to get ahead, you know how teenagers are. We just have to wait and see.
