Tobias POV: 

I hear a knock at the door. 
"Yes?" I say. 
"Prince Tobias, the Queen and the King, wish to see you." One of the maids say. 
I walk over to the door and open it. 
"Excuse Prince Tobias. I also have to clean your room." 
I nod and walk past her. 
I don't associate much with the people in the castle. 
I talk to my two step-brothers, Zeke and Uriah. My mother died years ago and my father married their mother. 
"Tobias. It's about time you find someone to marry." My father says. 
"But father, I'm only sixteen. I cannot marry a girl yet." I reply. 
"We've already arranged breakfasts, dinners, and lunches for you to meet new girls." 
I sigh defeatedly and my father smiles triumphantly. 
I walk Zeke's room. 
"Hey." I say. 
"Hey." He replies.
"Pansycakes." Uriah says and we stare at him and burst out laughing. 
"We met these gorgeous girls when we were walking down the street the other day." Zeke says. 
"Marlene, was beautiful." Uriah says.
"Shauna was just..." Zeke says and then he sighs. 
Then I hear two girls whispering while walking down the hall. 
"Tris, I hate this job." One of them whispers. 
"Well for now we have to deal with it." The other whispers back. 
"Deal with what?" I blurt out. 
"I don't believe we were talking to you." The blonde haired one says. 
The taller one with mocha skin nudges her. 
"My apologies, Prince Tobias. I do not know where the anger came from." Blondie says.
I nod. They continue walking. 
"Tris. You shouldn't have done that." 
"Boo-hoo. Pamper prince is going to beat me. Bullcrap." 
I look back at Zeke. 
They start laughing. 
"She looked like she wanted to ripe your head off." Zeke said. 
"She probably did judging what she just said." Uriah says laughing harder. 
"She was kinda cute." Zeke says. 
"Yep." Uriah says. 
Those blue-gray eyes that looked dull, were yet so captivating. Her small delicate figure. Everythign about her made me want to know her. 
"You're not..." Zeke says eyeing me suspiciously. 
He knows what I am thinking. 
"Heavens no. I wouldn't want to date an ugly girl like her." I say. Lies. She's gorgeous. 
They stare at me at me and then behind me. 
I turn around just in enough time to see two figures run down the hall. 
I turn back at them. 
Great. You made her cry. 
I was trying to cover up my feelings.
Well she hate you now. So there. 
Am I crazy?
You're talking to yourself, what do you think? 
"Well, we're princes right? Who cares what a couple of maid think?" Uriah says more like a question.
I have to find her.
