"Good morningggg!" Rosa sings. I jump in my bed causing her to laugh.

"That was a rude way to wake me up." I laugh.

"Oops. Let's see your leg." She says. I laugh at quickly she changes the subject.

I kick the blankets off me and Rosa unwraps my leg. "That's great, it looks all closed up. But I'm going to keep the stitches in for most of the day. You relax okay?" She says, wrapping my knee up again. "Okie dokie." I smile.

I'm starving, I think once Rosa leaves.

A knock is on my door. Darla walks in. "I literally have 5 minutes. How are you?" She asks giving me a hug. "I'm good. Hungry but good." I say. "Oh well someone is bringing you food." She grins. "Who's the someone?" I ask raising an eye brow. "You'll see." She says. Before I have time to say anything else she leaves me. Interesting. That was less then 5 minutes.

I lay in my bed counting sheep. I'm bored out of my mind, but it hurts to walk.

Another knock taps on my door. Prince Niall walks in with 2 trays. I'm happy to see him and not only because he has food. "Good morning." He smiles. I smile at him. He's wearing a white tshirt and jeans. Wow, he doesn't look like a prince today. He sets the trays in the chair he was sitting on yesterday. "Be right back." He says. He's literally gone for two seconds and when he comes back he has clothes. "I asked Darla to give me some of your clothes so you can change." He says setting the clothes down on the bed. "Thank you. But you didn't have to." I say. He's the prince he has so much more better things to do. I sit up on my bed and Niall's hand touches my back, helping me. "I'm fine." I say sternly to him. He moves his hand, "sorry." He steps away and hands me my tray with food. "God bless you." I mumble. He sits down in the chair and eats his food.

"Don't you have other things to do?" I ask. "Kinda but it can wait." He shrugs smiling. "I don't mean to sound rude but why do you care so much?" I ask. "I don't know. I just like you." He says looking at me.

I don't know what kind of like he means but I answer with, "I like you too." He smiles and looks down at his food. " I was going to bring board games." He says. I laugh, "you seriously don't need to spend the day with me." "I'm not spending the whole day with you." He says taking my empty tray.

I smile, "Okay." I get up and Niall watches me. I walk over to the window blinds and try to open it. I'm too short to reach. Niall is by me in seconds. He opens the blinds. I give him a look that says "thank you but you don't have to." That must be my new motto.

"I'm going to go before my dad comes looking for me." He smiles.

"Okay." I wave. He laughs and walks out.

I spend the next few hours sleeping.

Niall comes back with my dinner.

"I should have brought brownies." He says. "You should have but its okay thank you." I smile. "I can't eat right now because my dad needs me. I'll see you tomorrow." He says, he leans down and kisses my forehead again. I really hope I don't get too used to that gesture.

"I'm back!" Rosa smiles. Is she always so happy? I smile at her. She unwraps my knee, and takes out my stitches. "I'm going to have a scar aren't I?" I ask. "Yes. And it looks like a lightening bolt. You're a wizard (Y/N)." She giggles.

I laugh so hard I almost fall out of bed.

"There I'm just going to wrap your leg back up and if you want you're good to go to your room." She smiles.

I nod, "actually do you think I could contact my parents?"

"Ya sure. Don't think about leaving though. It might crush Niall's heart." She teases, handing me a phone from her pocket.

I roll my eyes, "thank you." She walks out leaving me with the phone. I dial my home number. "Uh yello?" My mom says. "Hey mom." I smile. "Hey (Y/N)!" My mom says. "(Y/N)!? My sister!?" I hear my sister say. I laugh, "I'm just asking quickly to say hi."

"How's the prince!?" My sister shouts. "He's lovely." I smile, looking down at my hand. "Ooooooo." They tease. "I got stitches." I say. "What how?" My mom asks. "It's a long story but it's all good." I laugh. "Oh okay." My mom says. "How are you?" I ask. "We are doing good. We were just getting ready for bed." She says. "That's good. Sleep tight love you both." I say. "We love you too." Mom says, blowing me a kiss.

I walk back over to my room with Darla and Summer but I don't walk in. There's no way I'm going to be sleeping tonight. I've slept all day.
I walk around for awhile until I see Niall. He's sitting on a small couch that is lined against a wall. I've walked past the couch so many times but I've never thought someone would actually sit on it. He sees me and I notice he has his ear buds in. He smiles and pats the spot next to him.

"How are you?" He asks taking out an ear bud. "I'm good. You?" I sit down. "Good." He says. "Why can't you sleep?" I ask. "Not comfortable and I just like to think." He shrugs. "Think about what?" I ask, his shoulder leans on mine. "Life and what it would be like if I wasn't a prince." He says. "Oh. You shouldn't think about not being a prince. It is what it is." I say. "And you shouldn't think about yourself as just a maid. Of course I haven't known you that long but I know you're more then that." He says. "Why are you so nice to me?" I look at him. "Because you seem like a great person and I want to get to know you." He looks at me. I nod, and he hands me an ear bud. I take it and we spend most of the night listening to Chasing cars by Snow Patrol.
