The Soldier And The Commander

Chapter 47

"Now what?" Kimito asked. I hanged on to him which startled him. "We can't tell her." I said. "But you'll get married if we don't." He said. "No, she won't, if she says no when proposed Mom can't interfere." Kevin said. I told them to meet in the room before dinner. Me and Kimito walked the hallways. Soon the weekend came and we never gave her an answer. So, she arranged a meeting with a prince. It was Sunday afternoon I was outside in the garden waiting for them to call me. "Hi princess." Kimito said. "Hi." I said. "You're saying no, right?" He asked. "Yes, of course!" I said. "Princess!" Maria yelled. "Coming!" I yelled back. Kimito kissed me goodbye. I went and the boy looked familiar, but I wasn't sure where I've seen him from. "Hello I'm prince Nathaniel." He said. "Hello." I said. We walked around the castle just talking. He kissed me on my cheek and noticed only one person does that. "Cody!" I said in shock. "You got me my love." He said.

"What are you doing here?" I asked. "Coming to get you." He said. "No, get away from me!" I said backing up. "Come with me." He said. I started running back to the garden where I left Kimito. "Come back princess!" He yelled. "No!" I yelled back. He kept on chasing me, I saw the garden. I ran into Kimito, who landed on the floor with me on top. "Woah meeting done already?" He asked. "Cody!" I managed to say since I was out of breath. "Princess we didn't finish our talk!" Cody said. "Stay away from her!" Kimito said guarding me. "See you at lunch." He said as he left. We walked back to the dining room. We ate lunch. "Now princess will you marry me?" Cody asked. Kevin and everyone else gave me a look like, don't mess up. ".......No." I said. "Leia why?" Mom said. "Please?" Senia asked. "No!" I said. "Why not?" They both asked. Kimito attacked Cody. "What in the world?" Mom said. "Boys!" I said. They restrained Kimito from Cody and Cody from Kimito. "You want to know something mother?" I asked. "Yes, what is the meaning of this?" She said. "Prince Nathaniel is actually prince Cody!" I said. "What?!" They said. "Yup." Kimito said. I went up to Cody and slapped him. The boys took him away. I walked off to the room. "Feisty!" Jackson said. "Is that all you say?" I asked. "No!" He said again. We all laughed at him blushing. "Look isn't that your picture?" Adam said. "Yeah but how did it get out here. "Hey I know better to not take pictures that are that precious!" Anthony said. "Probably Cody!" Aurora said. "Right." I said.

I picked up the picture and put it back in my room. We went on the roof when it got dark we watched the stars. "Shooting star!" Anthony said. "Make a wish!" Jackson said. "I wished already!" Ringo, Ika, Hako said. "Jinx!" They said. "Oh my Gosh!" Madeline said. "I'm not saying my wish!" Adam and Aurora said. "Jinx!" They said now. "Please stop!" Kevin said. "What did you wish for?" Kimito asked me. "I wished to always be with you forever." I said. "I wished the same thing." He said. He was pulling me close until we were interrupted. "Kids!" Mom yelled. "Up here!" We all yelled. "There you are get to bed!" She said. We got down and headed to bed. I woke up in the middle of the night. I looked out the window and was startled by someone. "Hi Beautiful." Cody whispered. "Cody." I said. "Come on." He said. "No." I said. "I love you more than what he does." He said. "That's not-." I tried to say. He kissed me, I pulled away quickly. "It is true." He said. "No, it's not." I said. "He loves that commander I saw him with her." He said. "No." I said. "It's true, he loves her more than you, I will love you and put you as my priority you know he won't." He said. "Yes, he will." I said. "Then how come he tells you to keep cover when you're at the base?" He said. "........" I had no words. "Think about it." He said planting a kiss on my cheek. I sat there thinking. I twisted all night trying to get his words out of my head but I couldn't. I left the room at around 8:00am. I walked to my study and there I stayed thinking and wondering. I did work to get my mind off things. Someone put something under my door. It was from Cody. "A picture of us when we were kids!" I said laughing. I had to remind myself that he wasn't who he was anymore. I threw it on my desk. I got tired and fell asleep in my chair. "Leia!" I heard someone say at my door. "What?" I said waking up. They were opening the door I put the picture away quickly. "Where have you been you weren't at breakfast!?" Kimito said. "I had to do some things and get my brain out of some thoughts." I said. "Which was? He asked. "N-Nothing!" I said quickly closing the box that contained the picture. "What's that?" He asked. "I-I told you it's N-Nothing!" I said quickly again. He pulled the box away from me and grabbed the picture. "Where did you get this?" He asked. "Umm." I said. "Why didn't you tell me he came, you know I get worried, what if he would've have taken you then what!?" He yelled. The room was freezing up. "Calm down." I said. "Calm down for what, he for all I know is probably here somewhere!" He said. "He didn't do anything bad he just talked to me." I said. "You still know I care about you." He said. I began crying. "What?" He asked. "If you loved me wouldn't I be your most priority!" I said. "You are!" He said. "Really because it doesn't seem like it!" I said. "Leia, I'm telling the truth listen to me!" He said.

I ran out of the room past my friends to my mom's study, luckily, she was there. I closed the door quickly she wrapped her arms around me while I wept. "Leia what happened?" She asked. "I was told by someone that when someone loves you, you become their biggest priority, but what do you do if it is true that it doesn't seem like you are there top priority?" I asked. "Well tell them, but sometimes things are not made a really big priority because they protect you from embarrassment or from a bad situation." She said. "I know but I want to feel like the top priority." I said. "I know but where did you get this?" She asked. "Cody." I said quietly. I told her the whole thing he told me. "He is right now you need to be the top priority but sometimes you're not made the top priority for protection, but don't trust what he said about making you his top priority." She said. "I know that but I just needed someone else to talk too." I said. "Okay now run along." She said. I walked out her study and closed her door, Kimito scared me big time! "So, you heard." I said. "Yes, why didn't you say anything?" He asked.

I kissed him, he didn't back away since we're right by my mom's study but just held me when I pulled back. "I'm sorry." I said. "I'm sorry too." He said. We walked back to my study. We looked at my photos that I had on a top shelf. We looked and laughed. We didn't even go to lunch since we were so caught up in them. Soon everyone else came in to join us. "Look!" Madeline said. Adam, Jackson, Anthony, Kimito, Kevin were sleeping under a bunch of pictures. "Why are they so tired?" Ringo asked. "You think we should wake them?" Madeline asked. "I'm thinking of falling asleep right by them!" I said. "Wow, you are so just like them!" Ika said. "I can't help it!" I said. "Knock yourself out!" Hako said. "Yeah no one's stopping you." Aurora said. So, I went to bed by them. I woke up in a pile of snow instead of pictures. "This is so cold!" I said. "You see why we go to sleep in long sleeves!" Kimito said. "Yeah I see that!" I said. Kimito put his arms around me then I felt a little warm. "Hi!" The girls said. They scared me to death, I'm just surprised it wasn't harmony. "Hi" we said. "Did we miss breakfast?" I asked. "Yeah." They said. "Good." I said. "You weren't hungry?" Adam asked me. "Yeah I haven't been having an appetite." I said. "That's not like you?!" Jackson said. "Give me a break!" I said. "I don't think you're okay if you're not having an appetite!" Anthony said. "I'm fine." I said. "If you say so." Kimito said. We went to school, it seemed to, weird to be back there but we had no choice we had to go. "Why is the teacher acting so weird?" Madeline whispered. "You think she's scared that it might happen again, you know like another attack." Jackson whispered to me. "I don't know." I whispered back. There was a loud siren. We all were running down the halls. There were screaming and yelling. I ran for the stairs that lead to the basement. There was a loud screech. I fell on the floor covering my ears. Kimito came to me and put me back on my feet and we kept running.
