"Oi," a I heard a voice whisper in my ear. I knew who it was. It's nacho. I sighed, what excuse should I make to get away from Claude, now? Damnit I hope nacho trips over a branch and breaks his neck, i was having such a good day.
"Your majesty," a voice came from the other side of me. Claude looked at him. Ah, it's the wimp's dad. Maybe I shouldn't call ijekial a wimp but i don't really care. He stiffened as he saw we were holding hands.
"...what is it?" Claude asked sighing.
"If I may have a private conversation with you, your majesty-," he said glancing at me. I felt some sort of hostility from it. Ugh.
"You-" Claude started. But this is a good chance.
"No, no, your majesty, I cannot interrupt your conversation with the esteemed duke. I'll just leave for now," I curtsied and let go of his hand.
"....fine." Claude said sighing again. He looks tired,,,
I walked over to the other side of the ballroom near the balcony, watching Athanasia's dance with the other girls through it all. As I thought, she's really a beautiful girl today. I smiled.
"Okay nacho, what is it?" I asked, impolitely.
"Tch why r u being so rude to me, you've been ignoring me for a couple of days too smh" nacho complained.
"Oh, that's so sad," I said sarcastically.
"Anyway, you've reached the debutante, haven't you?" He asked.
"Yeah," I replied.
"Then that means you went past the 18 chapters you've read in your previous life, that means you have barely any insight on what's to come in the future," nacho said.
"Is that necessary?" I asked him.
"Yes. It is." Nacho said, "because a certain event will happen in the future that you need to prepare for."
"You know what it is?" I asked him.
He nodded, "I don't know the specifics but it needs you to know what's going to happen"
"....can't you just tell me?" I asked.
"Lmao no I'm not that helpful 😹" he yelled.
I nearly choked him.
"Okay okay, don't get so mad, geez wtf" he muttered, "look I have a gift for you."
Suddenly something appeared in my hand. It was a computer chip sort of thing that had a blueish hue.
"Wtf is this"
"It's all the chapters of both season 1 and 2." Nacho replied.
"This world doesn't have computers," I said.
"Shut up, I'm not that stupid," he touched the tip of the chip and it started glowing blue. Suddenly it levitated and showed a hologram of one of those sites you read wmmap off of. I touched the screen like hologram and it moved with my finger like an iPad.
"Woah, how'd you do this-," I gaped.
"Using my great mind obviously," he replied.
"Can other people see this?" I asked.
"Nope, so while you scroll on it and stuff everyone else thinks you're crazy," nacho replied with a smile.
"Nacho, did you know birds are my favorite food?" I asked.
"I thought chihuahua's were your favorite food," he said quietly.
"..."
I suddenly noticed a tall looking boy approach me. He looks like his dad, alright. Hello, ijekial.
"Hello, Lady Revere" he greeted.
Revere? Ah it's my last name I forgot lmao, it's because everyone I'm around calls me Nicolette or Angelina.
"You know who I am?" I asked.
"Of course I do, you're quite the topic after his majesty personally gave you a title for what seems no apparent reason," he replied smiling.
"What are you implying?" I asked.
"Did I sound hostile? If I did, I apologize it wasn't my intent," he replied smiling again. He's irking me more and more.
"Children should learn to mind their tongue around elders," I replied, "it's quite a shock to hear words implying something like that from a duke's son."
He kept a smile on his face but he didn't say anything.
"You don't look old at all, I'm astonished," He finally replied.
"I'm getting tired of this conversation flow," I sighed, "oh and look the next dance is starting, you should probably get going now."
Ijekial nodded with a smile, "Thank you for helping me kill time, Lady Revere."
"To use a lady in such an unflattering way, you're quite bold," I replied as he left me.
He turned his head and smiled, "I'll take that as a compliment."
Is it because I'm getting old but why do I want to smack his head with a newspaper.
Ah he's asking Athanasia for a dance, smooth. Real smooth. Right in front of Claude too haah-. Do people really call that kid a genius?
"Hello Lady Revere" A voice called from the other side of me. I turned my head in interest. What is this? Why do the main characters always talk to me? First ijekial and now Jennette? I looked at Jennette, she was quite a beauty. I stared at her unmoving.
"Hello, Lady Margarita. Is there something you wanted from me?" I asked.
She blushed, "Ah- no I just..." she looked down. She reminds me of that one shy girl in my class who was always flustered.
"...."
"I heard you and the their majesties are close..." Jennette muttered, "and I just..."
"Do you want to know how I did it?" I asked her.
She gasped before calming down and nodding her head.
"..." maybe it's because I, too, grew up lonely and feeling very unloved and learned for my family. Maybe it's because like her, I, found a family in Claude and Athanasia. But I don't really think she's all that bad. I quietly patted her head. She kinda reminds me of a puppy.
"Lady Revere?" She asked looking up.
"Whatever your troubles involving their majesties are, I promise that they'll be fine," I smiled.
"Really?" She asked.
"Of course," I gave my pinky finger to her, "pinky promise?"
And so we did that and she left. She's quite a cute little girl. Well, I've met the rest of the cast now, haaah.
"Nicolette-Unnie!" I heard athanasia's voice. I quickly turned my head to her and was greeted by both Claude and Athanasia coming towards me. I quickly walked over to them and was hugged by Athanasia.
"Let's go home now," Claude said. I nodded and the debutante ball came to a close.
