Behind the curtains in the dance room, there were a group of four boys just sitting around on expensive couches while talking casually to each other. "Shouldn't you go check out what happened? This is your manor," a boy with orange hair said not looking away from throwing the darts. "It doesn't concern me," a boy with green hair said. Just as the orange hair boy was about to say something they heard some mumbling outside the curtains. They were sure everybody left to go see the scene, but the orange hair boy got interested and took a peak. He chuckled a bit and told the other 3 to come check it out, all looked expect for one. There stood a girl in a yellow dress, that didn't seem to match her, eating away at the desserts. Although there were no people in sight and she probably didn't know they were behind the curtains, she still looked around and wrapped some cookies into a napkin and set it into her pouch. Although her cheeks were obviously filled with food already she was still stealing more. What a strange girl.
But no matter what, they were quite entertained by her actions. When she spotted something new her facial expression would turn conflicted, as if she was choosing between her mouth or the pouch.
Right as she was about to pick up another snack some harsh steps could be heard. A girl dressed in green stopped right in front of her. The yellow dress girl looked frightened as if she had been caught red handed and hid her pouch behind her. "Where were you?" The girl in green yelled. But the yellow dressed girl with her cheeks still stuffed looked at her confused. I knew you were stupid but not to this extent. You couldn't even follow a simple task. You made me into an embarrassment," now the guys were even more interested, except for one, but who knows if he was listening or not.
The yellow dress girl still looked at the green dress girl with confusion, but she was slowly moving her free hand to grab a dessert off the table. "You pig! How can you still eat when you already look like that!" The green dressed girl yelled and smacked the food off the table. The yellow dress girl had a dejected look but something foreign in the men grew. The green haired boy thought he was getting this feeling because someone had thrown food prepared from his manor onto the floor, since he held a position just below the Prince, and he knew that girl had no connections to the crown.
Evita p.o.v
When Amaya threw the food on the floor and kept laughing and verbally abusing my appearance, I couldn't just leave it at that can I?
I began throwing food at her and while she was busy blocking them I tackled her down. "Nobody wastes my food." I didn't count since I only threw three small desserts. I slapped her hard and as many times as I could before people started trickling in. "What are you doing?!" The girl who first dragged me out of the party came and separated us, well mainly me. Amaya didn't have any chance to attack back and I spat on the floor as people began helping Amaya up. I could tell she wanted to attack me but in front of all these people where her reputation would be ruined? Not a chance. So she played her victim card. "Cousin, what have I done to receive your wrath? I was just warning you to not eat so much or else you'll get a stomach ache and auntie told me to watch over you." Her fake tears fell from her wide fearful eyes. Since she wants to play that game I'll play with her. "What are you talking about dear cousin? I was just trying to bring you back to reality as I saw you hurrying back here and getting intimate with a servant boy. But who knew you'll be so willing to throw yourself into another man's arms," I sighed and shook my head. Now everybody was looking at her and the person that was holding her. It was a man. They all gasped and took a step away from her, even the man. Amaya looked between me and the man. She looked as if she wanted to burst into anger, when there were quiet voices speaking up. "Is that why she left first? To get comfort for getting hurt? Does that mean she started the scandal just so she could come and meet with her lover? I could only smile at how smart these people were. Amaya was shaking and looked as if she was about to faint. "Doesn't that mean Lady Wrena is also part of this scheme? She did also leave right after Lady Amaya did," I wondered who this Wrena was but saw another ghostly looking person who was about to faint next to Amaya. It was the girl who dragged me out and the one who separated us. Amaya follower #1. As the whispers continued Amaya and Wrena fainted. "Could it be pregnancy?" I wanted to say it out loud just to continue on with the fun but didn't want to go that far. Who knew that I actually did say it out loud and that there were more rumors going on.
In the space behind the curtains there were three people who couldn't believe what happened and couldn't contain their laughing fit. Luckily everybody in the room was talking so they let out little noises from their laughs. "Prince, what will your mother do after hearing about this?," the green hair said to the silver haired man who hadn't moved from his spot and seemed to only be interested in a book. His expression didn't change but a corner of his mouth twitched.
