Rachel PROV:

"Miss, please follow me so we can get you ready for dinner."

"Um, I don't think that should be necessary."

"Of course this is necessary." she garbed a hold of my hand and yanked me to a room that was huge.  A large woven rug, taking in the silk-covered chairs, the colors of the walls that were man painted. A canopied bed was lain in the center of the room. Candles were held high in the ceilings.

"Now, we haven't all day. So...try this on."  She threw the lose gown at my direction catching it with an oomph. I slipped it on feeling the softness of the dress as the one single strap wraps my left arm around. Letting the puffiness at the bottom swirl in circles. Feeling the jewels on the right side of the dress as it makes patterns.  Last of all the white creamy rose on my left of the dress. I smiled when I looked at myself,

"I'm glad you like it."  she comes handing me the shoes, "Now let me do something with your hair." She sat me down and examines my hair. Grabbing some of it and then immediately dropped it down. After a couple of minutes of my hair getting pulled and dropped and pulled once more, she finally sighed and said she was done.  She gets a small mirror and hands it too me. My mouth dropped, I couldn't believe who she would've done this.

"Look... how much I would love for me too get all doddle up, but isn't this a dinner not a formal dinner?"

"Everyday is a formal dinner. Today is the day the King celebrates for an upcoming baby shower."

"Baby shower?"

"Yes! What joy that the Queen is having another baby." I kept my mouth shut knowing for sure If I ask another question she will be annoyed with me and not continue the the breath taking design she has for me,

As I walked in I was breath taken, the room was huge and designed in such entriquite colors and designs as if it was a mural painted by an artist. There were the two royal chairs in a golden color and a beautiful chandelier hanging from the middle of the ceiling. I walked around seeing people mingle from everywhere. I kept my head down low in tell I felt a soft warm hand grip my arm,

"Excuse me, but have you ever heard of manners?" I turn around seeing those brown honey eye's search mine.

"Yes, but perhaps let me refresh your memory that my father let you in our house not me.  It doesn't mean I like it. I just have to endure it.  My father is only generous to let a peasant inside our grand castle."

"Peasant?" my voice rising ever higher then I intended it to be.

"Please, I only came here to take you to the grand hall not argue with you."

"There's more?"

"Yes, there's more. What kind of place are you living in...oh that's right. A cabin wood house." I opened my mouth suddenly shutting it because I really didn't know where I belonged. We entered the Great Hall having the same replica as the room we were just in. Expect this room had two center chairs with the King and a beautiful women right beside him with a hand laid on her oversize belly. She beamed at everyone eye's sparkling when she laid her eyes to her husband, the king coughed making everyone's eyes hold on to his as he says,

"My fellow friends, I've brought you here tonight to celebrate a wonderful occasion that has happen to us once again.--everyone clapped-- I thank you for coming and for the gifts. Now is the opportunity to say some wishful things to my wife." Everyone cheered and headed there way,  I stood there only looking as the Queen greeted them and smiled,

"Are you going to give my mother some luck? Or are you going to stand there like an idiot and stare at her?" Samuel eyebrow's scrunch together with every ounce of frustration in his voice, "Well?" I look at him once again and restrain my voice, "Yes, I was meaning to go, but..."

"But what?" Turning away from me and looking at the row of people smile and admire the Queen,"I don't know what too say?" I say telling the honest truth, I hardly even know them.

"So." He says meeting my eye's again which sent waves of heat and tingles through my body, "Soooo, I just can't." I say having no idea what to say next,

"Come on." Grabbing a grip on my arm once again as we reached the second to last of a tall middle aged women who had dark black hair that hung loosely below her shoulders. 

"What are you doing!" I say backfiring at him,

"Making you not look like an idiot for not saying some respectable things to the Queen."

"I don't care if they think I look like an idiot."

"Well, I do. Who knows...the castle may tousle down because you can't say some grateful blessings."

"Oh wow, so your forcing me now?"

"I'm your Prince."

"Yeah. I'm just thankful it's not Prince Charming." I mumble,

"What did you say?"

"Nothing Nothing. Just leave me be."

"Now your quoting Shakespeare?"

"Maybe."

"I'm leaving, hopefully you don't need my help talking to my mother. Because you are the last person here so, all eye's are on you." The last thing I knew was that Samuel leaving and returning right beside his father and having his smirk on his face as my whole face goes completely white. All eye's were on me. I gulped; the queen motioned me to get near her,

"So, you must be Rachel Carson? It's a pleasure to meet you." I smiled,

"Thank you my Queen." Curtsying, "I give you a hundred blessing that your child is going to be a healthy one." 

"Thank you." She pats my hand, that's all I had to say to make Samuel smirk disappear from his face. Maybe staying here would be fun, well to tease around with Sam that is.
