Chapter 3: What's A Celebrity?

It is beautiful!

The dress is pastel pink. It has short sleeves and has a tight torso that perfectly gives definition to the collar bones and waist. The skirt itself is slightly outward, and the lace material falls down like a waterfall from a fairytale.

I am in love with this dress.

''It's...'' I don't know how to respond.

''Beautiful? Astonishing? Ravishing? Angelic? God-like?'' Lorna smiles.

''Yes'' I reply. My eyes are beginning to dry out as I have not blinked since I laid eyes on this dress.

''You really think so?!'' Lorna gets excited.

''I think this will fit you perfectly, princess! It is the perfect texture and color to match your beautiful personality and body!'' She says as she hugs the dress.

''I agree fondly!'' Stefan exclaims. I cover my face with my hands.

''So it's a yes?!'' She asks excitedly.

''Of course!'' I smile and we both giggle.

''This is called the 'Sleeping Beauty' dress and was designed by Johann Vaughan in Germany'' She pauses and points to the tag. Thank you, Johann. You will officially be given a invitation to my wedding, as well as design my wedding dress. You amazing human being.

''He designs pieces for various celebrities as well, such as Jennifer Lopez and Cara Delevigne'' I tilt my head in confusion.

''I am so sorry. I don't understand'' I said ashamed. I start to fidget with my hands and look down onto my pastel pink socks with little bows on the side.

''I don't know these people''

''You don't know who Jennifer Lopez and Cara Delevigne is?'' Lorna looks at me with the same confused expression on her face.

Stefan gasps in disbelief and clears his throat. ''Lorna. If I may interrupt, does the princess not know who these people are?'' She ignores his question and throws another one at me.

''Do you know what celebrities are?'' She asks as she folds her hands in front her waist and tilts her head, waiting in anticipation. I shake my head slightly and look down once again, too scared to look into their eyes. They might laugh and make fun of me.

''Oh sweetheart, you have been living under a rock haven't you?'' Lorna asks.

''I guess so'' I try to shake off my humiliation and return her with a small giggle.

I am not ready to tell them the truth. I'm afraid that Grandma might find out that I told them. Then again, I don't even know the full reason as to why I am not allowed to tell them. I am not allowed to share personal details to employees, let alone be friends with them. Although Grandma hardly stays at the castle, as she travels a lot, it might be heard by the wrong person.

She giggles and closes her eyes, ''Well then, why don't we hang out tomorrow. I heard Peggy said that you'll be free the whole morning, and then you have a meeting with some Connor guy at two'' She says kindly. Oh yes, I forgot about the meeting with Connor. He is one of the boys on the list to be my husband soon. To be honest, one of the decent ones so far.

''We'll have a picnic at the rose bush. You, Stefan and myself. Then, we will tell you a bit about pop culture.'' She exclaims. I nod.

'' How do you not know these things? You're such a strange teenager'' She says. I look down. Should I tell them? No. Maybe. NO.

But what do I have to lose?

I'll tell them tomorrow.

''I'll explain everything tomorrow'' I said looking down.
