Chapter-2 SCATTER.
It's been three weeks since my birthday party. I've been begging my mum to let me walk around town without the stupid body guard, but again...she insists on not letting me go.
Knock, Knock.
"WHAT?" I shouted angrily.
"Laney dear come out to eat. You haven't eaten in two days," the family maid shouted. She was like a second mother to me.
"Oh, Alice its you. I have eaten. I asked Philip to bring me some food," I responded.
"Oh, OK then um, I'll go tell your mother," I heard her walk away.
I sat on my bed, knees up to my chest, arms wrapped around my legs, staring out my window, at the rain.
(Later that day)
"Laney, are you awake?" I heard my mother knock lightly. I got off my laptop and walked over to the door.
"Yes mother, I'm up,"
"I'm sorry for not letting you go out, but...you have to understand ok?" she whispered. There was a hint of pain in her voice, as if she felt sorry for me.
"Yes mum,"
"Alright then, good night dear," I heard her footsteps fade as she walked down the hall.
"G'night," I whispered.
I walked back to my laptop.
xxPrisonedPrincessxx I'm finally getting out. I feel bad for doing this behind my mums back but, if I don't get out...I'll go insane.
I typed into my twitter, and entered. I went to my closet and walked into the jean section. I snatched some jeans and a hoodie from the other side. I changed and went back to my laptop.
Charguitargirl xxPrisonedPrincessxx Hope you have fun. Hey maybe we can meet after some of your sneaking outs. You can do it spread your wings.
xxPrisonedPrincessxx Charguitargirl Yea sure thing...and thanks for the support..well I'm off. I promise 2 return and tell u all all about it. XD
...
Charguitargirl xxPrisonedPrincessxx KK. I'll try and stay up. Oh take an umbrella...its soaked out.
xxPrisonedPrincessxx Charguitargirl Ok thanks.
I closed my laptop and ran over to my door. I placed my ear against it to listen. I turned the lock and ran to my window, and pushed the window doors open. I pulled up my hoodie and crossed over. I ran behind a tree, as I saw one of the guards pass by. Once he was out of my sight, I ran to the wall and climbed it. I crossed over and started jumping with joy from my escape.
"WHOSE THERE?" the guard shouted.
Darn I'm going to get caught...damn it. I squeeled to loud. FUCK
I cussed at myself.
I ran across the street, my feet splashing through the puddles, and the rain hitting my face. I ran past the Buckingham Palace shop, and down Buckingham Palace road. I don't know where I'm going...but I guess thats the exciting part in this whole thing...just where ever the...rain, haha, takes me.
I stopped once I reached 12 palace street. I was starting to feel cold and there was a nice little coffee lounge open. I entered and stood behind three people that were waiting.
My first time buying myself something...feels great...no one to do it for me.
I smiled to myself.
"Well well, no wonder its raining. Look whose released from her chains," I heard a familiar bolton accent. I turned around and smiled at Danny standing there with a smirk plastered on his face.
"Hi," I waved once in a busted manner.
"Hello, Princes-"
"SHHHH," I ran to him and covered his mouth.
"I sneaked out, ok. Its a matter of time before mum finds out and reports 'Princess Laney missing'," I whispered to him. He nodded.
"Ahh, so, your first few minutes of being free and getting soaking wet and walking into a coffee shop is the best you can do? Honestly I'm shocked, I'd thought you do better," he crosses his arms in front of his chest.
"Actually it was like about half an hour ago that I got out. I don't know where I am, but it feels great. I was just following the tears of angels," I explained to him.
"Well why didn't you call me? I could've picked you up to join us. Actually, why didn't you call me at all? Like none of us? We starting to think we weren't good enough for you. Well, except for Dougie. That bugger kept on saying 'No you guys, she's not like that. She's different. She said so herself'," he informed me. Imitating Dougie at the end. I sighed sharply and walked up next to him. He looked at me blankly. I swayed my fingers in signal for him to get closer. He leaned down a bit. I opened my mouth and took a breathe in. Then I quickly slapped him over the head causing him to jump.
"BECAUSE YOU FUCKERS DIDN'T GIVE ANY OF YOUR NUMBERS," I shouted.
"Oh," he laughed. "I guess maybe thats why,"
"Dummy," I whispered.
"So, where do you wanna go?" Danny wrapped his arm around my waist. I looked away, so he wouldn't see my crimson cheeks.
No Laney. Stop it. This is Danny Jones. He is...he's...a guy...he's ...Danny Jones. Ok...remember what your friend said...play hard to get. No more being the guys rag doll.
I took a deep breathe and looked back to see him.
"Where was it you said you were going to take me if I called you?" I smirked.
"Oh, we're having a party at our place. I was just around here getting some...eh...drinks," he chuckled.
"Alright then, lets go," I smirked, flashed him sexy eyes before walking past him.
He walked behind me, then passed infront of me, leading me to his car. After he unlocked it and got in, I had to take a deep breathe before even entering.
"Are you going to come in or not?" He chuckled. I smiled and entered.
The drive was quiet. And it was a long drive. We got off the vehicle and walked towards the house down the lot. The music was blaring loudly enough for the whole neighbourhood to hear. Danny opened the door and signalled me in. People were jumping and laughing and having a good time. I even saw Dougie snogging a girl in a corner. I smiled to myself at the wonders of being away from home. I spotted Tom dancing with a girl. He noticed me and began to wave hysterically calling me over. I chuckled and walked over to him, leaving Danny talking with a girl. The girl dancing with Tom turned to me.
"OMG, YOUR PRINCESS LAN-," she began...her eyes nearly escaping her.
"Shhhh," Tom covered her mouth, along with Harry who appeared out of no where, and Danny. My heart had dropped the first milisecond that I knew I was going to be discovered. I sighed deeply and chuckled.
"She sneaked out. Its up to us to keep her cover," Danny whispered. They uncovered her mouth.
"How come you know who she is, but we didn't?" Danny looked at the girl.
"Speak for yourself...I knew," Tom looked at Danny. I coughed lightly.
"Oh sorry, Um Laney this is Gio...Tom's girlfriend. Gio...well...you know who that is...obviously," Danny scrunched his face. The girl by the name of Gio, chuckled and extended her arm.
"Hello, nice to meet you Ms.," she smiled. I took her hand and smiled.
"Same here. And please...call me Laney. All personal family relations are off the table," I laughed.
"Oh well thats good," Gio laughed.
The whole night we spent laughing and talking.
Gio suddenly gasped. "I LOVE THIS SONG," she shouted.
"How far we've come," by Matchbox 20 played. She got up and pulled my hand to follow her into the crowd, where we started dancing and jumping to the song. Gio started singing along to the song, and I joined in. Suddenly the music stopped.
"PRINCESS LANEY HAS GONE MISSING. PRINCESS LANEY HAS GONE MISSING. THE QUENN IS LOOKING FOR HER. PEOPLE PLEASE KEEP AN EYE OUT. SHE'S 5'7. GREENISH BLUE GOLDEN EYES, LIGHT SKINNED, SHOULDER LENGTH HAIR. SHE HAS A SILVER RING ON HER LEFT MIDDLE FINGER, TWO PEIRCINGS ON THE TOP OF HER RIGHT EAR, AND THE FAMILY CREST TATTOO ON HER RIGHT WRIST. PLEASE IF YOU SEE HER, LOCATE THE STATION, OR THE QUEEN AT" the announcer's voice faded away as people near me, began to stare. Was the description really that obvious to me? In a flash, I saw a girl point at me.
"She fits the description," she shouted, causing everyone to turn to me. Gio stood in front of me.
"What no...she...likes the princess's style," Gio shrugged and laughed nervously. Everyone began to run towards me. I looked at everyone before I moved out the door.
"SCATTER," I shouted.
Did they announce a bloody award or something? Shit...OK Laney...think. Where to go, where to go.
I looked at the both end of the streets.
"Come on," I felt someone grab my shoulders. They shoved me in the car and slammed my door. The person got in and I finally noticed it was Danny. He turned to me and smiled, as he turned on the car.
"So...your place?" he asked. Before I could answer, he revved out of the street noticing the stampede of people coming out of his house.
We got to my place.
"Thanks again Danny for...uh...a nice night...even though it didn't last long," I chuckled, leaning my head on the car, "and for saving me back there,"
"No problem. Hopefully we can do this again...minus the whole...chasing and radio announcement," he laughed.
"Yea" I laughed along. I placed my hands inside my pockets and felt a pen I had left in there from a while back.
"Talk to you later...Laney," he smiled sweetly. I grabbed the pen and reached for his arm, re-entering the car. I wrote down my number on his hand, and got out of the car. I sneaked around the back and entered the room, the way I left it. I changed quickly and unlocked my door after messing up my hair. I walked down to the main room.
"Laney, where were you? I was looking everywhere for you? You didn't answer the door?" my mum began.
"MUM...I was in my room," I looked at her, like she was losing it.
"But I knocked and you never answered. And the guard said your window was open," she said trying to calm down.
"I was tired mum, and you know how much I like the rain. I wanted the scent to enter the room," I smiled at her. "Mother, you know you don't have to flip out every-time you don't hear me," I smiled and hugged her.
"I know, Its just that I'm afraid something happens to you," she hugged me back.
After a while she calmed, we said our good nights, and I walked over to my room and threw myself on the bed, and knocked out.
