A Princess's Secret (Completed)

Chapter 9

Family! Family hadn't been a subject we have talked about but on the car ride to Hayley and Kieron's Grandad we decided to have the conversation.

All the bags were in the back.

Kieron was driving and I was sitting next to him with Hayley and Matt behind us.

I found out Matt was an orphan until he started going out with Hayley and than whenever he needed it, Christmas, Summer Holidays, Easter Holidays and more, Matt would go over Hayley and Kieron's Grandads.

When Hayley and Kieron was about 5 there Parents died in a house fire along with their Nan. After that the rest of their family decided to have nothing to do with them. All except their Grandfather who loved them too bits. All 3 of them had lost people they loved dearly.

The car ride was only an hour and a half. When we arrived, we arrived on an farm.

There was land and animals as far as the eye could see.

We parked in front of an house.

It's paint was peeling and the gutter was starting to hang. The house looked very old but nice.

Suddenly an Horse came galloping up towards us as we were opening the gates.

An man in his 70's jumped off the Chestnut Horse and strolled towards us.

The man was wearing riding clothes. He had the same wavy hair as Kieron but was white and grey, he was quite tall with bright blue eyes and a bounce in his step.

"Hey guys," he waved.

He first hugged Hayley, than Kieron, than Matt.

He came and faced me with a smile on his, "So you must be Kat, Kieron's girlfriend."

"What!" Me and Kieron gasped at the same time.

"Kidding kidding, keep your hat on, but it's going to happen anyway," he high fived Hayley and Matt with an even bigger smile on his face.

"Anyway my name is Frank Kingsley, welcome to my home. Whatever is mine is yours and you don't have to ask for anything, just go for it."

"Thanks it's a pleasure to met you," I smile putting my hand out to shake it but Frank just pulled me into a Hug.

"Okay everyone grab your bags so I can show you to your rooms," Frank demanded with a smile. Of course.

We entered the house and it was strange. The design looked amazing but it was peeling away like the rest of the house. It had a wonderful Paladin style.

"My great-grandad built this house a 100 years ago and our family has lived in it ever since and not changed it one bit," Frank told me,

"Yeah we can tell just by looking at it," Kieron and Hayley laughed.

Frank just looked at them evilly and we ventured up the stairs.

"This is my room and a no go," said Frank with a hiss and rubbing the door creepily. That made us all nod and look at each other with our eyes wide open.

"Anyway this is Hayley and Matts room," Frank continued like nothing had happened and pointed to the door next to his room, "And this," he pointed to the door on the opposite side of the hallway, "Is were Kieron and Kat will be sleeping."

I was absolutely horrified. I looked around and saw Frank, Hayley and Matt in hysterics and Kieron leaning causally on the doorframe with a smirk on his face.

"Okay I am going to put on tea so unpack and come down for food," Frank yelped happily and bounced downstairs.

Hayley and Matt went into their room and Kieron had entered his and was holding the door open for me to come in.

Oh dayam they weren't joking!

I picked up my bags and entered Kieron's room. It was like any room. The walls were painted a dark blue and the floor was a light blue. There was some floor cupboards and a small TV. Opposite the TV was an singular bed with the covers, black with red flames. On the floor was a blowup mattress with a plain white pillow and covers.

"Haha your covers are the same as my hair," I laughed, which made Kieron smile.

(Half an hour later)

We all were sitting down on a large table eating Pizza that Frank had put in the oven.

After we had all eaten and was full. Even fuller after we all had some chocolate cake Frank had baked, we all sat in a cosy front room getting heat from a fire.

We all played cards (Jim Rummy) for the whole evening munching on some Popcorn. (No alcohol this time XD)
