Alone, but not alone anymore

Chapter Twenty Two

I get in and start thinking on what I will say to my dad after all these years. "Um, hi dad? How are you?" Dam it Nikki! You can do better than that. Your dad is the King and that's what you're going to say?! Hm, What if I curtsy? "Hello father. How have you been?" I huff not knowing what to say. After a few minutes taking a shower I get out and dry myself out. I get out of the bathroom with a dark blue towel around and unzip my luggage. I grab my undergarments and put them on. I grab my deodorant and put it on. I dig in my luggage and try to find a dress that was close to as pretty as the one Alexander made but I had nothing of that sort. I hear nocking on the door.

"Yeah!" I say not wanting to open the door in my underwear and bra.

"I have a dress for you. I figured that you don't have one that would please you for meeting the King, your father." Alexander tells me.

"Okay, thank you." I respond. I dig in my luggage and take out a long shirt or pajama dress. Can't remember. I put it on and open the door. I smile at him as I look at the dress.

"It's beautiful Alex!" I say to him. I look at his face but he was looking away but I could tell his cheeks where flushed. "Are you okay?" I ask him. He nods and looks at me.

"Um, I'm fine, you just um," He mumbles the rest.

"I what?" I ask.

"You look...sexy like that. Um, very, um suduktive" I look down and look at the shirt that I thought was longer. Oh my gosh! it's berly covering my underwear! I blush and grab the dress to cover myself more.

"Um, thanks for the dress, again." I say trying to change the subject.

"Uh, yeah, no problem." Alexander says. He walks to his room and that's when I actually saw what he was wearing. He only had his dress pants on and his black socks. I look at his back and notice his muscles that where showing, but not to an extent that he couldn't fit in a small men T-shirt. I walk back to the room and fully look at the dress he gave me. Its a black and red dress with some white to it. I put it on and get my black flats that I had in my luggage. Now the only thing is a necklace. I look for a necklace that would match but the only one that I had that matched is my amulet that I'm wearing. Well at least I'm wearing something valuable that my mom gave me for my sixteenth birthday. I grab some perfume that was not strong and smelled sweetly and but it on. I grab my clothes and put them in the drawers. When I finished I grab my luggage and but it under the bed. I walk out the door and into the living room and sit down to wait for Alexander that was still in his room. A few seconds later he walks in and gives me something in a small black box. I look at him questioningly.

"Open it, you need to put it on to see the king if your not known there or if your still not a member, but I can because I'm a prince." I look at him.

"But I'm a princess?" He nods.

"That might be true, but the people don't know that." He tells me. I nod and open the small black box. I grab the ring and put it on my right hand ring finger.

"Um, you put it on your right middle finger." He now tells me.

"You could have sed that before." I tell him. "But it won't fit, it fits my ring finger perfectly?"

"Try, it will fit, just watch." I look him a bit confused but do so any way. As I start to put it on the ring expands.

"Wow! That's so cool! How does it do that?!" I ask him amazed.

"It's a special metal that expands to fit anything. Although it's very rare so take good care of it. The symbols on it mean Royal, so you can enter the castle." I nod amazed that a type of metal can do such a thing. "Well, we should be of then." I nod and we head out the door. "Grab my hand we're flying there." Alexander tells me but then realization hits me, I'm waring a dress.
