Eves Of Flora

Chapter five

So, so sorry for the late update. I hope you enjoy this. Thank you so much for being wonderful readers.

"Amelia, what are you doing here?"Flora asked as she rushed to hug her.

"Well, I just thought I should come check on you since you left one rush and you didn't seem in a good mood when you took flight."Amelia said returning her hug.

"Well, welcome to my home. Do you want to see my room. " Flora said gesturing for her to go upstairs.

"Hold on, who says she's staying and you haven't even introduced her yet" Andrew said gesturing with his hands towards his wife.

"Right dad, my apologies. Mom, this is Amelia, my friend I told you about. Amelia this is my mom, Queen Eileen. Dad you have already met Amelia. " Flora said as she pushed Amelia to greet her Mom.

"Nice to meet you you Majesty" Amelia said in a calm and sweet voice.

"Well nice to meet you too. I thought you would be a lot younger. " Eileen said surprised by her looks.

"Who's our visitor? "Grandma Oona said as she descended the flight of stairs. She still looks as beautiful as ever, like a lady in her mid thirties.

"Grandma, I was just introducing my friend, Amelia to mom." Flora replied.

She settled down on one of the chairs and said "Your friend is very beautiful, a suitable wife material. Please make your self comfortable my dear. "

Andrew sighed and went into his chambers followed by Eileen. Flora was left with her friend and grandmother.

Few hours later, Flora left the palace. "It is done, the Queen mother has already nurtured the idea of taking me as the second Queen in her mind. " Amelia spoke to the dark feminine silhouette on the mirror on her palms.

"Good job Amelia. Now it is time for phase two of the plan. " The dark feminine silhouette responded in a cold voice.

******************

"Andrew, she is a nice girl. You should at least marry her. She will be a good wife, mother and Queen. Flora already loves her, which means less work for the both of you " Oona shouted at Andrew as he kept walking towards his chambers pretending he didn't hear her.

Andrew went into his chambers and shut the door behind him.

"You know Andrew, she's right. You have to marry her. I don't have a problem with it and you know it. Flora already loves her. "Eileen whispered.

"You startled me."Andrew said as he almost jumped out of his skin.

"I don't want to talk about that and let me be. " Andrew said quite annoyed.

"Mom, Dad, where are you?"Flora said without yelling.

Eileen was interrupted by her daughter's
voice from the kitchen. She proceeded to attend to her.

" Oh Mom, I have been looking for you, I am going to see Amelia. She says she wants to take me some where. And before you say anything I will be leaving with some company. Tara says she would love to see my new friend" Flora said as she took a bite from the apple she had plucked herself from the garden earlier on.
She spun around in her yellow floral dress with her hair carefully tied in a pony tail and bonded with sunflowers.

She ran out the door before her mom could say anything and Eileen sighed as she proceeded to her chambers.

"Hi Flora"Tara greeted as she embraced her in a tight hug as soon as she landed at their meeting spot, the meadow. She wore a pink tank top which would be obvious as pink was her favourite colour and a pair of blue bump shorts with leather boots.

"Hi Tara"Flora replied the greeting as she forced a smile and tried to restrain herself from the hug she didn't really need.

"Why the unusual face? Don't tell me you are still angry with me. I said I was sorry and I am still sorry. "

"You are just here because I told my mom I will have company, if not I am not supposed to be speaking with you" Flora said as she turned her back on Tara.

Tara dropped her backpack and placed her hands on Flora's shoulder which she quickly removed. "I didn't know you loved the piece of gold so much. I just traded it to a leprechaun for a beautiful necklace we could take turns to wear"

"No I don't want the stupid necklace. My grand ma gave it to me as a gift and I forget it in you house for one night and you just had to sell it. You are just selfish and...... " Flora was interrupted by Amelia footsteps.

"Hello girls, would stop fighting and come over. We are going to explore the forest today. I hope you came prepared." Amelia said as she stopped them from getting into a fight.

"The forest!! Wow I love the forest." Flora said in a high pitched voice showing her excitement.

"What, my new boots are going to get soiled."Tara shouted angrily.

"You will come with us to prove you are really sorry" Flora said trying to convince her to come with.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have come"Tara murmured as she joined them on their adventure.

They walked and walked through the forest both Flora and Amelia receiving complaints from Tara. "Gross, I just stepped on mud" Tara said.

Flora rolled her eyes whilst Amelia kept silent.

"Amelia I am so tired, we have explored enough. Where are we headed?" Tara complained.

Amelia still kept silent.

"Amelia she is right. We have been walking for a long time. If you are not ready to tell us where we are going to I am just going to head back home. " Flora said as they all stopped walking.

"We are almost there. Exercise a little patience."Amelia said as she started walking along the forest path.

After walking a little longer Amelia stopped"We are here"She said beckoning on others to hide behind a tree.

"We are where and why are we hiding behind this big tree. "Tara yelled.

"The door between the two worlds: humans and fairies. You see those stone tablet on the floor, that is the door and it are guarded by a very powerful spell to prevent any thing from the two worlds coming in or out. I used to go there when I was your age. "Amelia said in excitement.

"Wow, it's so old and beautiful. I have always dreamt of coming here" Flora said in excitement.

"Well I just want to go home and clean up. I am so exhausted from all this walking. Why didn't we just fly here? "Tara said angrily.

"Because if we had flown here the spell would have sent a signal to the palace and we would have been caught before we even got here. Come on we have to go home. "Amelia explained as she led the way back home.

Two days later, Flora decided to visit Tara at her house.

As they were plucking some fruits at her garden Flora remembered something and decided to share it with Tara. "I have always wanted to visit the human world even if it is to take a quick glance."

"Are you crazy, it is forbidden. No one is allowed to go there not even you. Even if we could we can't break the spell."Tara replied.

"Who says we can't " Flora dropped the basket of fruits and took flight.

"Flora don't do any thing stupid"Tara yelled.

"Meet me at the entrance to the forest in two days"Flora yelled back.
