When I woke up, Jagger wasn't there. I walked around the room, staring at the picture again. Moving towards the trunk in front of the bed. There were a few dresses in there. The red one that Susanna described the other night with a blue one with place designs, a yellow dress that reminded me of the one Belle wore in Beauty and the Beast, only not as fancy. And there was a simple white dress.The sleeves came down to the elbow and the skirt wasn't fuller like the others. At the bottom there was a small wooden box with notes tied together with a red ribbon, a locket, and yellow faded piece of paper. Setting the dress on the bed, I carefully untied the ribbon and opened the first letter. The letters were delicate and loopy, but very sloppy.
Dearest Violet,
It has been so long since you've gone. Are you still living with those little monsters? The ones with the tails and wings? Of course you are, you always were one that liked to spite people when you were angry. I do not mean to anger you, we just miss you here. Many have come to ask me when you will return, and I still have no answer to give. When will you return? Even your parents ask. They miss you dearly and want you to come home. Please, at least write back.
Love Cashel
My eyebrows furrowed, I didn't know why I expected to know what these notes were about. I put the not back in the envelope and picked up the next one. The next note had smaller letters that were neater and on a paper with a flower design on it.
Violet
This is becoming ridiculous. We are worried sick about you dear. The least you could do is write. Cashel has been throwing fits since you've left. He's sent 80 search parties in the last week alone. It's unbecoming of a queen to run from her wedding you know. Why don't you just come back home? We all miss you. You can even keep the little creatures as pets if you wish. We all just miss you, please come home. And send a letter to Cashel.
Love Mother
A from formed on as I finished the letter. Was Violet running away from home? A knock came at the door. "Violet" Jagger's voice said on the other side of the door. "We're having breakfast soon, are you ready?" The door started to open.
Quickly I hid the notes, "don't come in! I'm not decent yet." The door shut, quickly. I changed into the dress and walked out into the hall. Jagger was waiting, looking at the ceiling and whistling. Rolling my eyes, I gently shoved his shoulder. "Come on let's go." He simply stuck his tongue out at me and started pulling me down the hall.
He led me down the halls, until we were at a large room with a long wooden table in the center. Everyone I had met last night was waiting at the table. Jagger held out a chair that was next to Susanna and then took the seat next to mine. Waiters came out setting plates down with eggs and toast, I nibbled at the toast while every chatted, expect Sinopa. She watched me from across the table with emotionless eyes. Her fingers tapped the table, slowly.
"Why is she here" she finally said. Everyone grew quiet. She looked around at everyone. "Well? Why is she here? We don't even know if she is Violet. She didn't even remember Susanna!"
"Sinopa.. that's enough" Jagger said, lowly.
"No, no, no, no" she shook her head. "She didn't even remember you Jagger. How can she possibly be Violet!"
"Why do you always do this" Jagger said, slamming his hands on the table. "Every single time we came close to finding Violet you always try to stop it."
She glared at him, then at me. "Maybe because you so desperately want to have Violet back, that you're willing to take any person that has brown hair as Violet!" She stood up and pushed her chair back. "I'm trying to be realistic! We all saw what happened to Violet and you need stop pretending!" She stormed out of the room, leaving everyone in a tense awkward silence.
Simon laughed nervously, "well who doesn't love a little drama in the morning, he he he..."
"Don't pay her any mind, I'm sure after awhile she come around to you" Nixie said, coming around to pat my head. "You know, we should show you around! Try to bring her memories back!"
"That be nice" I said, smiling tightly.
"And girls only Jagger" Nixie said, sticking her tongue out. "We need to gossip and do girly things!"
"I can gossip" Jagger pouted.
NIxies pulled me out of my chair and started running towards the door. Susanna following us, "Not when we're gossiping about you!" She laughed as we went through the door, into a garden area.
