It's now Wednesday and I'm at work.
I'm actually getting quite restless with nothing to do and I'm annoying everyone around me.
"Babe"
"Babe"
"Lily" Alex says and I look at him, snapping out of my haze.
"Yeah?"
"Instead of tapping the the counter how about you do some work?" He asks
"Right" i say half-heartedly and he looks at me weirdly, his eyes narrowing slightly at me.
The door opens and I turn to see Lydia and Leo.
Leo again, in a wig.
What is with the costumes and dramatic disguises?
"Oh my god" i say and Leo glares at me and Alex laughs
"Mary" i say as she turns the corner to the front of the shop
"What's up darling?" She asks me
"This is my brother" i say, "Leo.... who I have no clue what he's wearing" i say and she laughs
"It's nice to meet you" Leo says and he gets pulled into a hug
"You too!" She says
"Your give fabulous hugs" Leo says moving away from her
"Aren't you sweet" she says and i smile
"Leo, do you want anything?" I ask
"Tea please" he says and i nod
"Lydia?" I ask
"Just a water" she says and i nod and they walk away
"A little date night?" Alex asks
"Must be" i say and i make the drinks before Alex takes them over
He walks back and I lean against the counter and close my eyes.
"Ella" Leo calls and i takes me a second to remember my old name before and I groan.
I walk over to him, "what?"
"Mum wants to talk to you" he says
"Hello?" I ask picking up his phone
"Hi darling" my mum says, "so your going to go on a date with three on the boys, one date each. Because the boys are struggling well arguing over you"
"What?" I ask in shock
"I know its sudden but its something you have to do" she says
"okay, when?" I ask her
"15th. of February. Your flight is at four am, i'll be on the plane then we are going to Monaco and they will all be there" she tells me
"okay, well i'll talk to you soon then" I say slightly confused.
"I love you sweetheart"
"I love you too" I say before having up
"what was that about?" Leo asks and I look back to Alex talking to an old man
I look back towards them, "I have to go on dates with all three of the guys because they are all fighting over me"
"when?" Leo asks
"fifteenth of February"
"that's the day after valentines day" Lydia says and I nod
"what are you going to do?" Lydia asks and I sit down
"well I don't have a choice" I say
"well you do" Leo says
"well I don't" I say, "I'm just going to go, I don't even know why I have to go. They are the ones who are deciding everything, its pointless for me to go really"

"SWEEEEEETTTTTT CREATTTURRREEE" Lydia screams and Alex jumps and i just laugh
We're at home now and I'm sat eating some chicken nuggets.
Alex takes one and I glare at him, "get your own"
"Aww, you think your all threatening" he says giving me a kiss on the cheek
"I can be threatening" i say
"Yeah when you're angry but apart from that, your not scary at all" Leo says
"Izzy, whys your parents in Italy?" I ask
"We don't know, they are keeping secrets from us" Lydia says
"That's weird" Leo says and she nods
"I wonder what it is" Izzy says
"Maybe it's just about one of taking the throne" Leo says
"What?" Lydia asks
"Well your uncle has no kids so it goes to the oldest and that's Izzy" Leo
"Do you even want to take the throne?" Alex asks Izzy
"I have been thinking about it a lot recently" Izzy says
"You could always spend the summer there, get a taste of your duties and get to know some of your people" i say giving Alex some of my food
"Look at you with the life advice" Lydia says and i laugh
"Bit ironic when hers is a mess" Leo says and i throw a pillow at him
The doorbell rings.
"I'll get it" Lydia says
"Is Alex here?" A voice asks
"Yeah why?... okay come on in then" Lydia says sarcastically
"You!" Ryan says pointing at me, bursting into the living room.
"What's up Ryan?" I ask smiling
"What's up!" He scoffs, "What is up is that i've not seen my best friend in weeks! Your hogging him and i want my time with him.... if that's alright your majesty" he says and i smile
"Do you want a drink?" I ask him
"Yes please I ran here" he says
"Ryan what are you doing?" Alex asks
"I came to see you" Ryan says
"I can see that" Alex grumbles
"Be nice to me, if had enough of your sour moods" Ryan says and I walk back into the room with his drink
"Be nice to him Alex, he's just missed you" i say
"But-"
"Be nice" i say and he sighs before looking at Ryan who is grinning away
"I love you Lily" Ryan says, "at least your nice to me, we should be best friends instead"
Ryan gets up to hug me but Alex shoves him down
"No, she's mine alright. Get your own girlfriend" he says
"Girlfriend!" Ryan shrieks, "when?!"
"At Christmas" i say
"Awww.... good luck lily" Ryan says and i laugh
"It's more like the other way around" Leo says and Ryan laughs and I glare at Leo.
"We're getting bullied" i say and Alex nods pulling my legs onto his lap and he draws circles on my legs and i smile.
It's so relaxing when he does that.
"Just ignore them, they are too dim-witted to be mature" he says and i nod
"Definitely" I say
"Ooo! Gracies having a party next Saturday" Izzy says
"Aww I'm gonna miss it" Leo groans
"Well I'm not going either" Lydia says
"Why not?" Izzy asks
"Id rather not waste my time getting drunk, plus I'm going to Greece" she says
"Why?" I ask
"I'm going to see my grandma" she says and i nod
I look at Alex and he just raises his eyebrows at me and shrugs.
I think she's going to start her responsibilities as a Princess soon.
These past few weeks she's been asking me about it and what I have to do, so she's definitely considering it.
I just hope that she will have a better experience than what her parents did.
Hey guys!
I hope you all had a great weekend and I hope you enjoyed the chapter.
I'm just checking in on you, how have you been? I hope everyone is okay and are staying safe 💙
