Winters cold breeze emerged in Highgrove's living room, with the eldest Wales kid stamping him feet as he waited his little sister to finish getting ready. The second boy was watching tv for nearly an hour since he was the first one to get ready.

- Caroline, we're gonna be late! - William shouted
- Relax Will's, there's still an hour until the party starts - his little sister screamed from her accommodation
- It takes an hour to get there! - the eldest insisted
- If you keep rushing me imma slow down - he snorted and stopped.

In a matter of ten minutes the princess was ready to go.

In a blue suit with a beige sweater and black pants, Catherine's boyfriend emerged in her parents house at 7:19pm, eleven minutes early. Kate smiled and hugged William, who gave her present and shared a quick sweet conversation. Little did they know, Caroline was watching them with a proud smile through it all.

- My turn - the youngest opened her arms as soon as her brother left his girlfriend. Her sister-in-law hugged her back and thanked Callie for the black dress she had just been gifted.
Harry hides it, but he really likes Willy's new girlfriend, she nicer than the other.

Let's just say having the Wales trio in your birthday party can be the talk of the night, everyone who was invited kept whispering as soon as they would get a glimpse of one of the siblings, who are more than used to it.

William spend the night simply talking to Kate's family members, including cousins and siblings, he got along well with them. Caroline chated with the couple's uni friends most of the night. Harry circulated around the groups.

Caroline
Last I checked the clock it was 9:40pm, can't believe it's already that late, or early, if you understand what I'm saying, the night flew in front of my eyes.

My phone rings and I find the name "Chloe", at this point of the evening, either she's bored or something really shocking happened, especially on a Thursday.

- Hey, what's up? - I pick up
- Oh thank goodness you picked up - she sighed
- What happened - I question her
- So today is my dad's birthday right? And as his nephew, your boyfriend came for dinner - what has he done? - But so did one of my dad's co-worker daughter, who's our age - red flag - you won't believe what happened
- Hit me - I say as I'm already in the back of the house
- We were in the pool house talking, some of our other cousins were there, including Theo's brother
- John, right?
- Yeah. So this girl, her name is Jenna, suggested we'd play truth or dare
- Oh no
- I didn't even mention she had been gazing and flirting with Theodore all night
- And what did he do?
- Ignored her - that's something
- So when the bottle finally fell on her she chose dare, and one of my stupid cousins, who doesn't know Theo's dating someone, dared her to kiss him
- What the fuck?
- I know right?!? I wanted to hang her as soon as she started smiling and clapping
- And Theodore was okay with that? - I was boiling inside
- He said "I have a girlfriend sorry", but she simply said: "She's not here is she? What the eyes doesn't see, the heart don't feel"
- That bitch!
- Theo got up and tried to run away, but she was quicker and slogged him fast enough, about after five seconds of fighting he was able to brake apart from her and left the room
- Now that's a relief
- Christ, I wanna kill that motherfucker
- Calm down Chloe you don't wanna get arrested
- You might get a call or text from Theo though
- That's good, if I don't I'll talk to him tomorrow
- Well that's all I gotta say, Mum's sending me to bed, bye.
- Bye.

I hung up.

The princess went back inside, to find Harry standing in a corner with a coke on his hands.

- Hey tosser - she came up to him
- Hey Callie, what were you doing outside?
- On the phone with Chloe
- Oh hey news - he said sarcastically
- Some bitch kissed Theo in her dad's birthday party
- Theo as in your boyfriend?
- The one and only
- What'd he do? - her brother looked concerned
- Ran away as soon as possible
- Simple, but enough
- Since when do you care?
- I might not show it like Willy, but I care about my little sisters feeling way more than mine - Harry was looking into Caroline's eyes as he declared it all
- I subconsciously know that, but hey, I care about you too
- Well aren't you a cutie
- See you are an idiot.

Caroline

Harry can be real nice sometimes.
