I always dreamed of being a princess, Then it came true...

Traveling Buddy.........

We were finally at the airport and i was exhausted.  14 hours and 35 minutes on a plane now to Italy.  My mom got me a new phone with a new number, so no outside contact.  In a way i was glad.  All the friends i had hated me, family despised me, and the witch wanted me for money and a slave.  New phone, new life, new buddy and new family.  It felt so good to be out of  that house and have something to look forward to.  Being Princess... Princess Anastasia.  Sounded pretty huh.  To keep faith that the witch would get what she deserved i thought of my Disney princess books, and how the witches never one.  My favorite was Ariel, the witch gave her what she wanted at first then tried to turn it around and destroy her.  Cinderella.  Dad died, step - mom took over, evil step sisters, and slave Cinderella.  Hmm... sound familiar?  Except my father was alive and well as far as i saw.  Cinderella got her prince and her step family lost everything.  Maybe i will be lucky enough to have the same story.

It had been 10 hours and we were almost their.  I guess i had fallen asleep for 7 of those hours.  I woke up to Jake asleep in the chair next to me.  He must have put a blanket on me because, when i fell asleep i didn't have one on.  Jake seemed sweet, and that he was hiding something.  I had to figure out what it was.  But i would rather wait until he woke up.  He could be a very grumpy man for all i know when he wakes up unexpectedly. 

I sat their for the remaining 4 hours on the plane.  Awake and listening to plane radio.  I guess the trip wasnt too bad.  The food sucked, but the view was beautiful.  Jake had woken up when we landed.  He was out of it and was competley vulnerable to anything.  I carried our bags and put him on the bench at a subway.  when i came back he was still kind of out of it, but not as bad as before.

"Hey their Jake, wakey wakey!"  I tried to see how asleep he still was.

"What......Where are we?...."

He was clueless! Now was my chance! Just like when people are drunk, the truth comes out.

"So... Jake.  Who are you exactly?"

He was still quiet but started to speak.

"I am Jake.....The Third.....Prince.....Of....."

He stopped and looked at me wide eyed.

"Nowhere and you really shouldn't manipulate people half asleep."

I was kind of embarrassed, and looked at him.

"So your a prince."

He looked at me ashamed almost,and  then spoke.

"No....i was dreaming i was...."

Hes a tricky one. Man! I was so close!  I'm pretty sure he wasn't dreaming or kidding.

"Uh huh, sure Prince of Nowhere.  If that were true i would be Princess of somewhere and a kingdom of nothing."

He turned red and stared at me, then laughed.

"Maybe I'm fooling you into thinking that. Or maybe your the one dreaming Princess Of Somewhere."

We laughed and then realized my mother was waiting for us.  After we remembered we headed to the luggage claim and i saw my mom.  Not dressed in fancy kingdom clothes.  Just my mom.  Then i wondered if i was really going to be a princess.
