I've never, ever, ever, ever written a Fan Fiction story before in my life so feed back would be most appreciated…hey I would even welcome constructive criticism! Thanks folks.
She was scared, no petrified would be a better word for the turmoil that was going on inside her. Surely she was too old to have feelings like this? To have feelings like this for a man who never in a million years could fall for her!
"All we did was dance together that really is no basis for a relationship…I can't believe I just used the word relationship…the way we looked at each other though, I thought time had stood still, I could hardly breathe."
All these thoughts were running through her head and without Queen Clarisse even realizing it had spilled out of her mouth in a jumbled un-Queenly way and unbeknown to her, she had an audience.
Mia tried to back slowly away from the room without being noticed; she had never seen her like this before, her normally calm, controlled and often distant Grandmother acting as though she were a school kid again! Mia was trying so hard not to make any noise that she completely missed seeing the cabinet to her left and reversed straight into it knocking both herself and the contents of the surface clean onto the floor.
Clarisse jumped a mile in the air.
Mia didn't know where to look.
"Hi Grandma! I was just looking for you and I found you so now I'll go." She scrambled in an undignified manner to her feet collecting all of the debris of the collision from the floor as she did so.
"Are you hurt Amelia?" stammered Clarisse "I didn't know you were in the room, I'm afraid I was wool gathering, please excuse me, was there anything in particular that you required?"
The façade was back in place, Clarisse had slipped the Queen's mask on once more and had Mia not heard what had come out of her Grandma's mouth she would have believed that there was nothing wrong. She decided not to let on what she had heard; instead she would try and discover who it could be that Clarisse was thinking of.
"Now this could be fun!" ran through Mia's head as she ran from the room.
