Princess Or The Pauper?

Athriuca In Danger

"THE ELITE!" I screeched out.

"Hush!" The stranger said as he clamped a hand over my mouth.

"I am sooooo dead." I finally sighed out once he removed his hand.

"First thing first. I am here to run away. But. As you can see, they are interested in you. So. Why is that?" Mr. Stranger here asked like I was gonna open up to him automatically. Which is what people of the lower level would do so I was forces to basically.

"Because I am always here whenever something happens. Good or bad. I always help out and I am quite popular here too." I admitted uneasily.

He just sighed and turned away.

He apparently was looking for something more than that.

"Well. Wrong manor. Need to get on my way." He said as he tried to get up.

"No." I said and very nicely helped him back down.

"No?" He asked back. A bit ferouciously

"No. The best right now is staying here. Then I can take you over to the palace and heal you up with better supplies. Obviously I am some sort of head person there so yeah." I answered him in the nicest form I could.

He just growled and grudgingly agreed. Thank goodness. He was starting to get waaaaaayyy out of hand.

"Let's play get to know each other whike we are alive." I nicely instructed him to do.

He obviously saw that as a command and immediately started to be a "good" stranger.

"I am Athy. And you are...."

"Ames. Ames Jennigston. And your job is..."

"Head Person in the kingdom. In charge of stuff. And your job was..."

"My job is to protect the people The Elite are after. And why do you think they want you?"

"Because I am.... I am.... just a person the subjects are idolizing!"

"They would idolize the royals not some servant who works there. And how do you think to escape The Elite's gaze?"

"By staying where I am."

"Get me some glue then and you'll be dead."

I just turned to him questionably.

He had a devious smirk on him which I find cute and attractive.

Snap out of it Athy!

"I didn't mean it literally!" I half stuttered, half scolded him.

He just sat there chuckling.

"You are so... sooo... weird." I just told him as I watched him nearly choke on his laughter.

"Well I must go, if you may please excuse me, I will be back tommorrow." I stated and turned and left.

"But it is too dangerous." Ames tried to convince me.

"Why would they want a simple commoner like I?" I replied back with a calming smirk.

He just grumbled and waved his hand as if dismissing me.

Well. Now I am his personal servant.
