Amber was sitting in the windowsill in her room. Silent, just watching as the stars sparkled above her. She loved to look at the stars, she always had. They were comforting and so beautiful. She could just sit for hours and watch them sparkle. Of course that wasn't ideal since she would be up half the night then and be mega tired in the mornings. But tonight she didn't care. Today they had welcomed their new family. A new mother and a new sister. Amber didn't really know what she felt about that. Her first reaction had been to be cold so she went with that.

But now when she was alone, she realized that she didn't know what she felt about the new family members. They seemed fine, the girl a bit to excited and noisy and she didn't know a thing about the royal life. Amber rolled her eyes as she laid her chin in her knees. Yeah, they seemed fine but it broke her heart to see them together, laughing and talking and hugging. Amber looked up into the sparkling sky and sighed.

- I miss you so much mommy, she whispered.

It had been three years now since her mother had left them. Amber thought the pain had come to a manageable level but when she saw Miranda and Sofia together, just being mother and daughter, something inside of the princess broke. She ran as fast as she could away from them and then ended up in her room, here, in the windowsill. She didn't even care to acknowledge the tears that fell from her amber eyes.
