After I finished picking out a few new outfits for Larry to try on, he went to the changing room and came back eight minutes later, wearing the first of the three outfits I picked out for him to try. When he walked back into the room wearing the new suit, the moment I looked at him, he asked me, "So? How does it look on me?" I was at a loss for words seeing him in the new suit, 'This is dangerous; he looks too good in that suit!' "I don't know how the other outfits are going to compare. You already look perfect in this one!" Larry smiled, "Does that mean I look good enough for our first kiss?" I pulled an embarrassed expression at his comment, "Don't push your luck! Go back in there and try another one on before I kick you!" Larry laughed a little, "Yes, your future highness!" "That mouth of yours is going to get you into trouble! And I haven't said yes yet!" "So you're saying you're going to say yes?" I facepalmed while going blood red from embarrassment, "Just get back in the
The following day, I woke up early with a smile, got out of bed, went over to my dresser, and started brushing my hair before my maid arrived, 'Today's the day I get to go on that date, Larry was telling me about the other day!' While brushing my hair, Jasmin came into the room to wake me up; she was surprised to see me up early, "Miss, you're already awake?" "Yeah, I woke up early and decided to start getting ready on my own." Jasmin looked at me, confused and slightly nervous, "I've never seen you get up on your own before... You normally try to sleep in as much as possible and refuse to get out of bed..." I looked at Jasmin, slightly annoyed, "I'm not that lazy..." Jasmin smiled nervously, "Of course, miss, now, if you'll allow me, I'll finish brushing the rest of your hair for you." "Alright." Jasmin walked over, and I handed her the brush. After she finished my hair and helped me change, I headed down the stairs to wait for Larry to arrive. I decided to wait in the tea roo
A week later, Larry took me out on another one of our dates. During the past week, Larry came to learn how much I adore cakes and sweets, so he told me he'd take me to a renowned bakery called Velvet desserts for this date. On the way there, Larry said, "You know, the pastry chef at this bakery used to work for the royal family before he left to open this place." I looked at him, surprised, "If he used to work for the royal family, that must mean he's incredibly talented." "He is. You'll see just how talented he is in a short while." When we pulled up outside the bakery, the building wasn't much to look at. Very modest and ordinary exterior. If it wasn't for the sign on the front of the building, you wouldn't have known it was a bakery. Larry got out of the carriage first and offered me his hand to help me down. I happily accepted. As I took his hand and walked down the steps of the carriage, he asked me, "This is the bakery I was telling you about. What do you think of it?" "If
After I locked myself in my room, Terry followed shortly behind me and started to walk up the stairs. Once he reached the top, he walked over to my door and gently knocked, "Sasha, I'm sorry I got so frustrated with you. I never wanted to show that memory crystal to you. I wanted you to realise who you were falling for on your own, but I got so frustrated with how blind you were being." I didn't hear a word he said since I'd gone straight into my bathroom to wash up since I was still covered in the drinks that were spilt on me, but I couldn't concentrate on that at all and ended up crying in the corner of the bathroom. Not knowing I couldn't hear him, Terry assumed I was ignoring him. As he turned around to leave, he saw Walter standing to the right of my door. He had overheard everything Terry said, so he asked, "What exactly happened? What did you show to my daughter to upset her so much?" Terry started to get nervous seeing Walter's intense glare. Swallowing back his fear, Terry
The next day, Terry visited the estate early in the morning. When he arrived, one of the maids showed him in and led him to the dining room where I was. When he walked into the room, the moment he saw me, he was stopped in his tracks by the shock of what he had seen. As Terry stood there, he watched as I finished a large plate of food, and as he looked across the table, all that could be seen were empty plates. Terry cleared his throat and asked, "I see you're feeling better?" When I looked at Terry, he could see my skin was still somewhat pale, but I looked much healthier than I did the other day, "Yes, thank you. I was just finishing my breakfast." A bead of sweat went down Terry's forehead as he looked at the piles of empty plates, "That was just breakfast?" I looked at him, slightly confused, "Yes, why?" "No reason! Since you've finished eating, shall we go pick up your dress for the wedding tomorrow?" "Of course, I'll tell the driver where to go." Terry and I then left the

The next day I was woken up early in the morning by Jasmin, "Miss, it's time to get up! Today's sir Dan's wedding. We have to get you ready!" I tried to ignore Jasmin and go back to sleep, "Give me a bit longer..." After I said that, I tried going back to sleep, but Jasmin pulled one of her usual stunts and stole my blanket. After she stole my blanket, I sat up and looked over at her with a half-asleep, half-annoyed expression, "You never let me sleep in...!" Jasmin stood there and smiled, "I'm glad you're finally awake, miss. I'll start doing your hair if you wouldn't mind sitting at your dresser." After I finished getting ready, I went downstairs. When I reached the bottom of the stairs, Crimson was waiting for me there and dragged me off to the dining room, where she made sure I sat down for a while and ate a few plates of food since she still wanted to fatten me up. A few hours later, Terry arrived at the estate precisely at the time he said he would. But, as Terry made his wa
After the ceremony was finished, we all headed over to another area of the arboretum. It was another large clearing of trees where Crimson had set up a space for Dan and Angela to share their first dance as tradition and let everyone else join in after. Once everyone migrated to the new area, Dan and Angela made their way onto centre stage. Once they were standing in the middle, the band started to play. When the music started, they began to waltz. As Terry and I stood there and watched them, I still couldn't control my emotions and continued to tear up. Finally, seeing my emotional state, Terry handed me his handkerchief to wipe away my tears, "Here, you should dry your eyes, or they'll get sore." I timidly accepted it, "Thank you..." While I wiped away my tears, Terry continued to talk to me, "You need to try and forget about the prince. It's not healthy for you to be this affected by him." I stared at Terry, annoyed, "It's not that easy, you know! I can't just turn my emotions
