A dark haired girl in a carriage of dark blue stared out into the vast sky. What was school really like? What about the other princesses? And how about the princes?
"You alright, Cass?"
She looked up, seeing the kind smile of her older brother. His blue eyes shone more than hers, and she didnt know why.
"Y-yeah..." The girl stuttered, playing with a strand from her wavy long hair. Her lips forced themselves into a smile, one that was enough to convince Marlon she's alright.
"If you need help, don't be afraid to look for me." He put a hand on hers, covered by a thin white glove.

It didn't take long until the carriage landed in front of the school. Cassandra found herself scooting away from the carriage door, overwhelmed by the size and brightness of it all. She seemed scared to even touch the sunlight.
She took in a deep breath, realizing she was already here and her brother had already opened the door, holding a hand out to escort his little sister.
"Prince Marlon!"
Cassandra shot her head up to the direction of the voice, taking a step closer to her brother.
A bright red lady, specifically a fairy, came flying down at the carriage gently. Cassandra relaxed seeing the woman's smile, yet held at the black sleeve of her brother.
"Good Morning, Miss Flora." Marlon stayed calm and kind, as he always is. He gave a small bow of greeting, truly showing his overly princely persona in contrast to the sheltered one of his younger sister.
The fairy, Miss Flora, gasped at the sight of the young girl. "Is this her?"
He looked at his sister and Cassandra simply nodded, settling for a small curtsy to at least seem more confident.

"Of course, we have the library, the classrooms..."
Cass timidly followed behind the fairy, staying close to the center of the halls to make sure she wouldn't exactly come in contact with anything that looked breakable. To Cassandra, everything looked breakable.
After the fairy led her to her class, she barely said anything as an introduction. Cassandra simply smiled and waved, something she's always seen her brother do. It got her some weird glances, especially from some princesses, but she was only glad to be able to have a seat.
When she sat down, she pushed some hair away from her face. 'Finally...' She thought to herself until...
"Hello!"
"H-Huh?"
She looked to her side, seeing a cheerful blonde boy smile at her with the warmest smile she's ever seen. He tilted his head, making a small motion with his hand in front of his face. Cass blinked a few times, before realizing that some of her hair was falling down on her face again.
"T-thanks..." Cass silently pulled on her gloves under her desk, as the boy continued to smile and chuckle.
"I'm Prince James, and you?"
She stared a bit. 'Prince James? Of Enchancia?' She gulped a bit, before forcing another smile. For some reason, it was easier to smile thanks to the comforting aura that James seemed to naturally emitt.
"Princess Cassandra of Acanthus..."
James tapped his chin a few times, before smiling again when he seemed to have come to a conclusion.
"Can I call you Cassy?"
She turned bright red.
No one's ever called her that. The only nickname she's ever got was Cass, which was something only her brother called her.
However, she didn't exactly know how to tell James she wasn't comfortable with it, and as such her head began to slowly nod.
"Great! Nice to meet you, Cassy!" He grinned cheekily, before turning back to the discussion happening in front of the class.
Cassandra could feel her face burn up, as well as the tips of her fingers despite the gloves. With how James smiled at her, he probably saw how she flushed a completely different hue.
