Prince Cole is terribly bored for the summer, when he gets a break from all his prince duties. So, he found only two plausible options to cure his disease. (A) Get a friend like a normal person. (B) Ruin people's lives. Or do both?
"I swear to god. If we have to twirl in these damn skirts again, I'll kill myself."
We danced side by side, twisting and turning to the beat. With my forehead slick with sweat, I was SO thankful that I wasn't wearing a shirt to constrict me.

I scowled at the teacher, my cheeks burning. Charlie smirked at me, before flicking his hip toward me.
"You want some of this?" He purred.
"You wish."
"Maybe I do."
