     Why do you do this?

Did M'lady brainwashed him?

As time went on, and I following Bakugou. I couldn't stop thinking why Bakugou pinned me. It's so sudden. Questions keep going through my mind. I feel like I'm high off of... red wine? Can I get high off of that? Probably not, I don't know anymore.

"You're slow princess," Bakugou stated. I hate him so much. He has no right to call me 'princess'. I told him not too. And he should obey my ord-... 'I do act like a princess' I thought to myself.

I started to walk faster than him. Going in front of him, going to the dining room. As I sped walked to the dining, I heard yelling inside of one of the rooms. I slowed down quickly and tried to make out what was happening.

"You pest! You had one job, and yet you can't even do it right? You realized that this is my kingdom, and I can do whatever I want." I heard a voice growled. The voice was M'lady of course.

"I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean to disappoint you, M'lady. I can make it up! And I won't mess it up, I promise!" Pled the other voice. It was one of the maid's voice. Probably Ms. Mead. I'm not a fan of hers. I don't like her that much.

She would always yell at me, and also threatened me many times when I was younger. One time I messed up on a piano note and she yelled at me saying "You idiot! Do you not know how to play the piano! You're such a... a... Asshole!" And believe me, that where I learned to cuss. Surprisingly M'lady isn't the one who taught me how to cuss.

I felt body heat on my back and realized that Bakagou was also paying attention to the conversation. "Damn, is that how M'lady acts to you and the others here." He asked. Me, being an honest kind 'friend'. I said no. I wanted him to see her true form. The devil inside her. He sighs "Oh, ok." Is what came out from his mouth.

Time went by slowly. All the knights had eaten breakfast already, including Bakugou, Kai and myself. After that, Kai took Bakugou to knight training. As so myself I went to my sensei and trained with him. Surprisingly I didn't get lost this time. Shocking, I know. Afterward, I went to the dining room again and realized that the maids were getting the place all fancy up for the party tomorrow. Everyone using their quirks for help.

"Ms. Hwang! You should be playing the piano! It's on Friday. Run along" yelled Ms. Mead. Of course, she will be yelling at me. I'm surprised she hadn't called me Asshole or something else.

"Give her a break please." Said Ms. Kim walking up to us. "Come on (Y/N). I'll take you to a piano lesson." She suggested. I nod while glaring at Ms. M'lady#2. Ms. Mead scoffs and then walks off. I chuckled.

Ms. Kim starts walking me to the piano room. The piano room is bigger than my room. The piano only takes about ⅕ of the room, and yet I barely have any. "You know, every Monday and Friday you have a piano. Right? It's been that ever since you were little." Ms. Kim explained. I nodded.

We walked by a few rooms to get to our location. As we walked forward to the of the piano room, we heard metal hitting metal. Like armor, But for beginners. As the second has gone by, both Ms. Kim and I saw Kai walking a tall person with heavy metal armor. "Why the hell do I have to do this?!" Exclaim the talking metal person. Telling by the voice it was Bakugou.

"I never knew Bakugou's quirk was putting on metal armor on himself. That so useful to others!" I giggled. I heard a loud growl from Bakugou. I couldn't hold in my laughter. I started laughing my lungs out. Ms. Kim gave a few chuckles, and for Kai. He also was laughing his lungs out but also crying from laughter. Bakugou got so mad.

"What was that princess?! Do you wanna fight or something'?!" He yelled, hearing the echoes inside the armor. "Believe I would win! I'm stronger than you can ever be!" He snarled.

He doesn't even know my quirk. Plus he didn't know my name in the beginning, and I doubt he can bet me. That was a nice joke. "I like to see you try, why not tomorrow?" I suggested. He nodded, as his growl can be heard. "Ok, that settled then. Tomorrow 15:30 sharp." I said as I open the door that goes inside the piano room.

As I open the door, I felt the fresh air inside the room. Memories being in this room fills up my mind. Ms. Kim pushing me towards the piano, 1 yard ahead of me. "Go on (Y/N). Play the piano please"

My first love. The piano never left me, and never will. The piano is all I have musically wise. If I were to talk to the piano. I would say "Don't ever let go of my hand.". And I'll never let go of its hand. The sound of the piano smoothens my emotions.

I sat down on the chair. I took a breath. My fingers played as if they had their minds of their own. The movement of my fingers was smooth. I played with emotion. Letting go of the past, and breathing in the future. Today is going to be yesterday, and tomorrow is going to be the future.

Tomorrow I'm going to be known. Not for being the daughter of M'lady. Not for being a princess in knight's clothing, but for being engaged to Shouto Todoroki. The news will be all over the land. I would like to stay in the shadows. I'm not one to be swarmed by people... peasants...

"That was so beautiful!" Ms. Kim started. I didn't even know that I was still playing. It seems like my fingers do have a mind of its own. Scary... "Do you know any other songs, so you can play during the ball?" She asked. I sharply turned my head to her. I gave her a bit of a glare.

"Play?" I question, and she nods. "I don't play for big crowds. Especially not to very high ranking people!" I assured her. No way in the name of Zeus I would. Why would I do that?!

"What are you talking about?" Ms. Kim said while smiling. I'm not afraid of crowds, but I'm afraid to fail. Ms. Kim knows this, I don't see why she's telling me to do this. "You can play your heart, you know..." she starts talking. "You can prove yourself and others that you're no Hwang." She added, but a serious face.

"Then was am I?" I asked. Ms. Kim looks down. "What will I be if I'm not a Hwang?" I asked again, but she stood quiet. "Ms. Kim?" I get up from the piano chair and walk to her.

"I'll explain later," she said. "All I can say is, you aren't a Hwang by heart." That got me questioning. What does that mean? Am I adopted? That's a bit of a stretch. Why would M'lady adopt me? It would probably be Majesty... but the words Ms. Kim used.

"You aren't a Hwang by heart."
