Chapter 1

I was walking on the corridor, till I've reached the balcony and looked at the view. Everything seems good, Albuquerque and the common people out there. I admire those common people there, because they have so much freedom than a princess like me. Especially when you're engaged to someone who you didn't love.

"Princess Gabriella," called my lady-in-waiting, who is also my best friend Taylor running to me. "Prince George is here, again." She speaks. "He's going to talk about the weeding plan, again and again."

"He's going to amend the plan again?" I cried, stunned. "No way I'm going to the hall and listen the craps he's talking."

"But princess—"

"I'm going to sneak out again, get ready Taylor." I said, thinking of sneaking out to the town again.

"But princess, Prince George—"

"Just forget about him, come on!" I ordered and pulled Taylor to my room. Then She went to my wardrobe and took out a pleasant outfit, took out my gown and wore it.
"Erm princess, I don't think it's good." Said Taylor "If your parents know that—"

"Come on, I'm going to meet Troy and the rest. Aren't you going and meet your Chad too?"

"Princess!" She cried, as I knew that she have a crush on Chad, best friend of Troy and also own the same bakery with Troy and his other friend, Zeke. I took out my crown and all my accerocies, combed my hair and wear a pair of pleasant shoes.

"I'm ready Taylor, you better get change too." I ordered and handed an outfit to her, continue to tidy my hair. Taylor just sighed and changed her clothes and shoes, after that we're ready. Then we went to the back door without any people noticing us; it's lucky when you're living in a big palace, as there are a lot of secret paths here and there.

Finally, we have get out from the palace. And yeah, I'm free once again without those princess lessons etc. Anyway, we're on the way to Troy and his friends' bakery shop. And I hope that I will be able to see him, when we've reached there and opened the door, to my disappointment it was Zeke, Troy's friend and also the owner of the shop.

"Welcome again, Tay and Gabby. What can I get for you this time?" asked Zeke calling our nicknames, as they don't know our real name, with a kind and welcoming tone.
"Erm, may I know where's Troy?" I asked kindly.

"Troy?" called a curly haired boy suddenly appeared, who is Chad. "Maybe he's outside, at the fountain, you may go there and look for him." Just then, I noticed that Taylor is blushing now, after she met Chad.

"Oh hi Tay." Chad replied with a very shy tone, as I can see through that he's also having a crush on Taylor.

"Erm, I think I should go look for Troy." I said and walked out from the shop, playing as a cupid. Then I went to the back alley there, as that's the only path of the fountain where Troy usually likes to hangout. When I've reached there, I saw Troy playing his flute. Once again, I get to hear this beautiful melody as it reminds me of how we met.

"Hey Gabby." He called after finished playing his flute; I walk towards him giving him a smile.

"Love your songs, as usual." I replied shyly. Seriously, if he were a prince I would marry him rather than Prince George.

"So, why are you here today?" He said grabbing my hands. "Missed me?"

"Well yeah," I replied "Our masters are tiring us to death, working this and that. What about you? Having a good business in your bakery shop?"

"Not really, you can see the financial problem we're suffering now" he replied. "Oh, and this is for you." He said taking out a ring, which made from lavender. He then helps me to wear the ring on my ring finger; I lift up my hand and smell the scent of lavender. But I was reminded that I'm going to marry Prince George of Genovia, not Troy the baker.

"Troy," I said taking out the ring. "I can't have this, I'm sorry."

"Why?" he asked "I thought were happy to be together and—"

"It's not that, Troy." I replied. "My father, wants me to me to quit my maid's job and marry a guy, but not the one whom I love." I said, sadly. Even though Troy and me liked each other, but because of my status I can't be together with him. Unless he's a prince, if not my parents will definitely won't allow me.

"But why? Why you father wants you to marry a guy who you don't even love?" He asked, looking my eyes. I was hard to reply that I'm a princess, because that Albuquerque is in financial problems and as a princess, I got to marry prince George to save the country.

"Because, he's rich." Suddenly, I felt that tears coming out from my eyes. I just simply wiped it away with my hands and continue. "My father wants me to have a better live, so yeah."

"But Gabby! Do you think it worth it?" he asked, "Marrying someone who you don't love will not make you happy!"

"I know, but it left me no choice Troy." I replied, "If I have a choice I will marry you!"

Suddenly, there's been a minute of silence.

Oh no, did I just say that?

"Gabby," he said, grabbing my hands tight, and once again put the lavender ring on my ring finger once again. "Promise that you'll wait for me. Even if I'll use all my savings or sell my bakery shop away, I must marry you." My eyes grew widen and full of surprises. I didn't know how to explain, because my entire mind is about Troy's words. Suddenly, I felt that something touches my lips. I looked up; it was Troy's lips kissing me.
