Chapter 2: Are You Serious?

Macy's Pov

Looking toward my window I can't help but Smile while yawning. I turned to the side toward Marie Bed and was surprise to see an empty bed.

"Marie" I call rising up from Bed. "Marie" I call again.

Still no respond. Walking in the hall in only nightgown I sigh when I couldn't find her. Just about to throw the towel and go back to my room I spot her talking to a mystery guy who I recognized at the ball he was handsome and they seem to make a perfect couple.

He seem to be really interested in what Marie was saying I smirk when I notice how Marie was blushing, "Someone looks Happy." I turned and met eyes with Bash,

"Good Morning Macy. Sleep well?" He asks.

I nod before replying,

"Yes, What about you?"

He grins, "Yes but it seems like I'm still dreaming though."

I stare at him confused till I realized he was talking about what I was wearing. Shaking my head I smile, "

So you're saying you're dreaming about me. What will people think will they find out?" He shrugs laughing,

"I really don't care. I mean what men wouldn't want to dream about a beautiful girl like you." I swear I could feel my face pull on a blush,

"Bash I… never mind." Beginning to Shaking my head franticly.

He looks taken back,

"No tell me Macy, I mean we were closer when we were young. What's stopping us from that?" He asks.

I start to ponder the thought I mean Bash was really really… Handsome. I was shocked things have change he isn't the same boy who use to pick on me and make fun of me when I was with Francis. He uses to even make fun of my crush on Francis.

But now I can't help but feel like I have jelly legs around him. I continue laughing shaking my head to change the subject,

"It's nothing I was just thinking about how we use to act when we were kids. You use to always pull my hair."

He chuckles, "Yeah but things have change haven't they."

I nod smiling,

"Macy" I hear noticing Marie was coming our way,

"Sorry I didn't tell you about my leave but Scott insisted I walk with him." I shake my head smiling, "No its fine" She looks between Bash and I,

"Did I interrupt something? I could leave." She asks. "No your fine we was just talking. So… what were you and Scott Talking About?" I blushes shaking her head,

"No but he was telling me about some boy snoop into Mary's room and was about to take her Virtue. It seems to be a boy who's close with one of her ladies in waiting." I nod taking in the news,

"That's so sad we should stop by Mary's chamber's I mean she must be pretty shaking up." Turning to Bash I smile,

"Sorry to end our chat on that kind of topic but I must be on my way. Hope to see you today." He gave me a cheeky smile leaning in close than expected,

"It's no trouble maybe you should stop by the throne room. I hear Charles will be meeting his soon to be wife today. I'm sure the king would love your presence I know I will." He winks then walks away. Marie looks at me in awe,

"Someone seems to have an admirer." I look up and I could feel my face turn ten times redder than usual,

"Marie I have no idea what you're talking about Bash and I were just talking beside Bash Flirt with probably ever girl in the castle." Once the thought hit me It felt more disuniting thinking about it then saying it. Looking at Marie she shrugs,

"I don't know. Macy I mean he seem like a love struck fool over there. I mean he needed a drool bucket."

Shaking my head Laughing I grab Marie's hand lopping her arm with me,

"Let's go check on Mary"

Nodding we begin making our way walking to Mary's Room.

Bash's Pov

Watching Macy and Her friend I couldn't help but smile she still looks so radiant

"Plot has thicker." I heard a voice. Sighing I turn meeting the face of Alec; he was one of Macy assigned Guards. Out of all the guards we have I can't believe my father had him assign to him. Sighing,

"What is it you want to say I don't have all day?"

Laughing He smirks walking away,

"I think your funny Sebastian. A lost puppy to be I can see the way you look at the Italy Queen. Who can blame you I mean she's quite a sight. I wonder with her appearance will she still have her virtue."

Glaring at him I grabbed him by his shoulder and pushed him against the closest Wall,

"How dare you speak about her like that?" I almost had the chance to punch him but knew he wasn't worth it.

"But what makes it funnier is you can't have her. I mean she's a queen a beautiful one she'll marry anyone. Then there's you Sebastian, the King's Favorite son I'll admit to that, but that doesn't change the fact you're a Bastard and will always be." That was end I punched him square in the jaw,

"Bash" I turned and was welcomed with the presence of Francis. Sighing,

"Yes Dearest Brother. Come to tell me I should watch my cool." He sighs rubbing he's temples,

"No actually I was heading toward the Throne room; we have word about Charles future wife arrival"

"Yeah we should go." I reply turning making my way.

Walking into the Throne I smile at Prince Charles who was playing with his toys. Queen Catherine looks in my direction and scowls but doesn't say anything.

"Queen Macy and Mary are on there way"

Hearing Macy name I turn toward the guard. Soon I smirk when I watch her walk inside the Room with Mary. Smirking she walks towards me while Mary goes to Francis,

"We meet Again." Laughing she nods, "Yes Bash we do." Rubbing My shoulder against her I could see her Blushing.

Macy's Pov

Marie and me walking in Mary's chamber. We turn and notice Mary was on the couch. She looks up at us smiling,

"Morning" She smiles,

"What's wrong why aren't you in bed?" Marie ask. Smiling she points to Lola who had tear stain eyes laying. Nodding understanding Marie and I sit down with Mary. Soon the rest of Mary's ladies in waiting walking inside. While we begin discussing about what happen with a boy name Colin had almost took Mary's virtue. From the look on Lola's face she seem to really care about him I felt bad for her I mean if I was in the same situation I would have died right at the same spot. Lola turns to Mary,

"Colin said he was force and I believe him maybe you should talk with the King. I mean they never did he's side of the story"

I smile nodding,

"She's right Mary. I mean he seems to what I hear not that kind of boy. someone must have put him up to it."

Mary Nods. Before she could even respond a guard walks in,

"Excuse me. But the king wish too have Queen Mary as well Queen Macy."

Nodding Mary and I arrive to the throne room. While Mary makes her way to Francis side I stand Next to Bash,

"We Meet again." He whispers. biting my lips trying not to giggle but fail I nod,

"Yes We do Bash"

Once it seem as if everyone who was suppose to be present was present King Henry tells Mary and I about Price Charles fiancé coming,

"I would like to go with Francis If you don't mind?" Mary asks the King smiling. I was impress with Mary's Straight forwardness it seem the king became stunted but shook it off Nodding then turn toward me,

"Would you like to go as well Queen Macy" Shaking my head,

"No your majesty" He nods,

"Very Well get a Carriage ready for the Queen Of Scots" Mary Smiles turning her attention to me,

"Macy are you sure?"

I nod, "Yeah beside Francis and you should have your alone time I'll just be a third wheel."

She smiles, "Very Well I must be going then." She turns to me one last time ad then notice Bash and she winks and then whispers to me,

"Good luck" Confused I turn to bash who just shrugs. I nod,

"I should take my leave. See you around Bash"

"Wait Macy!" He exclaims.

I freeze the way my name rolled off his tongue seem to have a ring to it and I could feel a shiver run down my back. Putting on the best Smile I could do I turn toward him. As I turn I didn't realize how close he moved toward me and I slip almost falling on my butt, but Bash grabs my hips breaking My fall. Landing on his Chest,

"Bash are you ok sorry I'm such a klutz."

"It's No problem as long as your not harmed anywhere. Are you ok?" He ask. I could feel my cheeks turning bright Pink our faces was so close *what's wrong with me* Bash notice to sadly,

"Macy are you sick your cheeks look very pink and pale."

"Pale?" I exclaim dramatically. Bash laughs rubbing my cheeks,

"I'm only kidding did you see your face?" Shaking my head I sight standing up dusting off my clothes. Standing up Bash turns toward me once again,

"Macy would you like to go for a ride with me?"

I raise up an eyebrow, "When you say ride you mean like... on a horse?"

Bash nod Laughing, "Yeah! What else would I mean wait you have never ridden a horse before have you." Shyly I nod, "No I have not when I was in Italy my mother was very strict she never really let me have any fun." Nodding I could tell Bash understood once I saw him smile,

"Well in that case why don't we change that meet me in the stable in a few minutes change into something comfortable." Smiling I nod walking toward the door.
