Sakura woke up in a cold room. She shivered under her blankets. 'Wheres my fire starter?' thought Sakura as she got out of bed and stood on a cold floor. Maybe it's not 5 a.m yet.' she thought as she walked to the fire pit. Sakura then looked for a match to light the fire. She then found one and lit the fire place. 'Ahhh' thought Sakura. 'Nice and warm'. Sakura walked back to her bed and cuddled her silk sheets.

In the mourning Sakura found that the fire she had made went out and her fire starter had not light it up. 'Oh well.' thought Sakura. After a couple hours Sakura was walking through the halls near her room. Sakura overheard some maids from inside her room talking. Sakura put her ear to the door. "Did you see her?"asked the first maid. The maid was making her bed. "No,what happened? Did she over sleep?" asked the second maid. The maid was dusting and washing her windows. "Yes,she over slept,and when they caught her they beat her till near death and sent her outside so that the wild animals might finish her off."said the first maid.

"Wow! But wait...then who started the fire last night...at six...because when I came in I had thought that she had lit it."said the second one. Both maids looked at the door, it was open a little and they saw Sakura just before she backed up. 'Why do I care what they think of me? soon I will be a princess then queen...so why do I care?' thought Sakura as she walked down the hall.

"Sakura!"yelled the prince as he waited for her to come in. Sakura ran through the halls to the main room where the prince had something to tell her. Sakura was expecting it to be something like the wedding was being moved or he was going on a business trip. Sakura stopped running then straightened her dress.

The maids that were bystanding shook there heads. "Not fit to be a princess.'said one to another. "I agree,princesses don't run they elegantly walk."replayed the other maid. Sakura looked down,she wanted so to be a good princess but the maids weren't giving her a chance.

When Sakura entered the prince was reclining in a chair. "Ahh...my dear Sakura,do sit down next to me."said the prince as he patted the seat next to him. Sakura obeyed and sat in the chair. "What I asked you to come here for is that..."said the prince. His blue eyes twinkled and his blonde hair was neatly parted. "You see,your fire starter had fallen asleep while she was suppose to be keeping your fire lit."said the prince.

"And therefore with a heavy heart we had to fire her. And therefore if it isn't to much trouble...you will have my fire starter."said the prince. "That's alright...I mean...Yes prince. That will be fine with me."Sakura politely curtseyed. "Is that all prince?"asked Sakura. "Yes that is all. You may go."said the prince. "Prince Derrick your dinner is ready,sir."said the butler as he walked off.

Sakura walked elegantly as she could out of the room. Her back was straight and she slowly walked. She swayed a little as she walked. When she was out of the room she heard the prince say 'What a sweet lady,great posture,and the face of an angel' Sakura smiled. At least someone appreciated how hard she tried to be a good princess.

Sakura then slouched and breathed a sigh of relief. Sakura hated how she had to act toward him. How she had to call him prince and sir or your majesty. She'd rather call him Derrick. He was in fact her fiance so why couldn't she call him by his first name?

Sakura sat down to a long table. On one side she sat surrounded by silver ware. Sakura was baffled by the rows of spoons, forks, and knives. She watched the prince so that she knew what to use first. After dinner Sakura was proud of herself. She screwed up only once and no one had saw her.

Sakura walked back to her room and sat on her bed. A young man was sitting by her fire place,he was lighting it with a match and sadly he wasn't succeeding. Sakura walked over to him and showed him how to light her fire, she didn't blame him for not knowing how,since her fire place was different than the prince's.

"Thank-you."said the young man. "Your welcome...you may call me Sakura."said Sakura. "Ok,Sakura and you may call me... (*****To be continued!*****) (Naw i'm not that mean...well maybe but...oh well =^.~=) Li."said the young man. "Li...alright....glad to meet you."said Sakura. "Nice to meet you to."said Li. "Well I better be off, I have to go back to the prince's room to make sure the fire is still going,call me if you need me...Sakura."said Li as he walked off.

As he walked he thought. 'What a beautiful princess...' thought Li as he walked into the prince's room. 'What a nice young man' thought Sakura as she sat on her bed. Sakura thought for a moment about him,there was something odd about this man but she didn't know what.

The prince paced in his room. The prince was worried about his fiance. 'What if she doesn't like having to act like a princess.' thought Derrick as he paced nervously. 'What if she doesn't love me?' He was now worrying himself.

In Sakura's room,it was now ten p.m. , Sakura was getting into bed when she heard a knock on her door. "Hello,Sakura,may come in? Is your fire going low?"asked Li. "Oh...yes it is...you may come in."said Sakura. Li slowly opened the door. He walked in her room and walked to the fire. The fire was completely out and Li started it back up.

Sakura sat up. "Hey Li...would...you...would you want to talk to me...I mean...for a while?"asked Sakura. Li slowly got up and cocked his head to the side. Sakura thought it was cute but then she shook the thought out of her head. 'I'm already engaged...what am I thinking?' Li looked at Sakura then he nodded. Sakura scooted over in her bed so that he could sit on it. Li just looked at her like he didn't know where he could sit.

Sakura spoke up "Li...you can sit on my bed...it's alright."said Sakura. Li was confused by this. 'What does she mean? Why is she doing this? She's a princess.'he thought as he sat down on her bed. "So...your not very pre-princess like are you?"he asked. Sakura shrugged. "Hey it's better then being some prissy little girl who can't even get her hair a little messy."said Sakura. "You made a point there."said Li as he gave Sakura a warm smile.

Sakura smiled back. 'He's so cute...and his eyes are warm and gentle...his hair and smile is so sweet...'Sakura stopped thinking...she was suppose to get married in three months and she was taking like in some peasant... Li looked at Sakura 'She's so beautiful and her hair and green eyes...oh how i wish she were mine...but she's going to get married.' Li sighed.

"I...I."said Sakura. "Well I had better get to the prince's room then to sleep."said Li. "B-ut...I."said Sakura. Sakura blushed a bit but she hide it by turning her head. Li felt a blush coming to. Li then left Sakura's room. Sakura fell asleep in a peaceful dream about Li.
