The Adventures of Sylvie

Chapter 8

AN: Sorry I was gone for so long......buuuuut I"M BACK!!!!!! Anyways, ON WITH THE CHAPTER!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sylvie's POV

After I had calmed down, me and Wither walked back to the dining room, where Sera and G. Grandpa were waiting. "Sorry I was gone for so long.", I said. "I-I-", but I was cut off by Sera. "I get it. You forget I was adopted by my grandma and then she died before school started in the summer, so I know what grief feels like and how sometimes, you just have to cry and let it all out." she tells me. "Thanks.", I say. 'No problem.". "Hey everyone, since he was a prince, I'll be holding a ball as a memorial to him. I'll have a maid, and butler for you Wither. bring your clothes. Until then, why don't you guys go watch some movies in the living room, help cheer Sylvie up.'', G. Grandpa finally suggested. "Alright.", Wither says.

We went to the living room and started to watch some Disney movies. Hey. Just because I'm part demon  doesn't  mean I can't enjoy Disney.

We watched movies until I fell asleep, resting my head on someone's shoulder. Not sure who's though.

Sera's POV

We watched movies and eventually, Sylvie fell asleep. I don't blame her. Today's been a long day for her. Her head dropped onto Wither's shoulder. "UH! Stupid ugly cat. My shoulder is NOT a pillow.', the tall boy said. He then started to poke her cheek, trying to wake her up. "It won't work.", I tell him, "There's two options.", I say. "1. Either you or me can carry her to her room. or 2. We can let her sleep here.".

"Option 1. I don't imagine that this would be a comfortable place to sleep with all the noise of people coming and going. Especially with the ball tonight." he responds. 'Here, I'll do it.". "why" I ask. "So then she'll owe me own one, and I can take allllll of her deserts tonight." he says. "Of course, I should have known." I say. One way that the two like to be mean to one another is  to steal each others deserts, since they both have quite the sweet tooth. I sigh as Wither picks  up my metaphorical little sister.

Wither's POV (sorry for the sudden change)

I heard Sera sigh as I picked up the stupid cat.'Now that she owns me one.......I get TWICE the desert' I think to myself.

She's quite light, but still has a little weight. But that weight is the exact amount she needs. I carry her to her room, set her on her bed, grabbed an extra blanket from a shelf, and threw it on her. I hated to admit to myself, let alone anyone else, but she is a great friend and person. She's helped me get out of tight situations before, AND she ALWAYS chooses the BEST deserts sooooo AWESOME SWEETS FOR ME TONIGHT. 

I sneak quietly out of her room, careful not to wake the stupid cat.

Sylvie's POV                                                                                                                                                                              -------------------------------------------------

I wake up on my own bed with a blanket over me and a light, sky-blue colored ballroom dress with white lace at the bottom of the dress and ends of the long-sleeves. "It's beautiful" I say aloud. I put it on and walked in the garden, to find Sera and Wither, already dressed. Sera had a dark, navy-blue with black lace instead of white, and the lace was where my white lace was. 

Wither wore a black tailcoat with a light green undershirt, black dress pants and shoes. The tailcoat had cufflinks at the ends. I wore white heels while Sera wore black ones. It was fun seeing Wither to dress up, cause he HATED to, so he was pretty annoyed. He is a prince but he only tolerates the fancy clothes.

"So what are you guys talking about.". I say as they didn't notice me when I walked up to them. I finally got their attention. They turned towords me and Sera gasped. "Sylvie.....you look GORGEOUS." she said. "Thanks, Sera," I said. "You too.". "Hey. Stupid cat. I carried you to your bed, so you owe me all your deserts tonight."  Wither says ."ok." "A-and you look n-not half bad." he says. "Hey. Dumb skeleton. Thanks. That's the nicest thing you've ever said to me. You don't look half bad yourself.". "Anyway, as for what Sera and I were talking about, we think that it's best that we leave tomorrow and we think we know where we will hide first". he continues. "Where?" I ask. "The Rosewood Forest. The plan is to eat breakfast, grab the stuff we will pack tonight, and open a portal there. There should be a cabin that a servant of mine is cleaning right now as we speak. We'll go from there.". I don't say anything but nod my head to signal that I understood.

"Um....excuse me Princess Sylvie, Prince Wither and Miss Serafina, but the ball is about to start, and the king wants to see you." a maid suddenly says. I sigh then say, "Thank you. Guys, let's go say goodbye to- g-g-grandpa." They both give me a worried look, but I assure them that I'll be fine. We walk out of the garden.
