Princess Diaries Volume 9: Envious Princess
A/N The second chapter of my first story! Thanks for all of those who read it, especially Danimister & funkycoco for actually reviewing!! Anyways I don't have much to say except that one or two characters are mine and the rest belong to MEG CABOT - author of this great series! – you will be told when a made up character comes by which will be in this chapter, oh and by the way, about Michael's full name, it's not Michael James Moscovitz, it's Michael Morty Moscovitz because that's his dad's name – you find out in the seventh/eighth book…but anyway, less talk more reading… so read on!

Oh, oh, and for passing notes, Mia is in normal font while Tina writes in italic and Lilly writes in bold. That's all… sorry…
We last left off…
Alright – I'm at the door – I just rung the doorbell and I hear his voice, his voice, it sounds so nice to hear it again, but now I have to put my diary away… oh joy… no, here he comes…
Chapter 2: Surprise, Surprise!
Saturday, 3rd March, 2:01 am, Bedroom.
I cannot believe what just happened! I'm crying so much and Lars came to my rescue – again! How could he do this to me?!? Michael, not Lars. I don't know if it's even worth writing down what just happened… but maybe it is, so here it goes:
When I opened the door, I found someone else, not Michael at the door, but Lilly:
"Mia! Right on time! I knew you would come!" she said
"Err, yeah, of course I would come. Why wouldn't I? I mean, it's Michael, right?
Hey, where is he anyway?" I began as Lars followed in.
"Oh, dunno, probably off in his room or something. He says that's where he's keeping his surprise, and he 'advises us not to peek or the surprise will be ruined'." She replied.
So we walked to their living room and I sat on the sofa. I came in elegant, but casual clothes – yes okay I was overdoing it, so I was trying to look my best … but who cares it's Michael! Well, at least now I know it's not a girl he brought as his surprise. I'm sure he wouldn't be stuffing a girl in his room…
"Lilly, call your brother, won't you? Oh, Mia, nice to see you, I didn't notice you were there." Said Dr. (Mrs.) Moscovitz.
I politely waved back, then got up to help Mrs. Moscovitz get the turkey out of the oven.
"MICHAEL COME ON! DINNER IS READY!" wow, she hasn't sworn at Michael yet… looks like Lilly really did miss him.
We managed to get the turkey out of the oven and lay it on this really pretty golden tray, then I put it on the dining table until –
"Mia, hi! Didn't know you were coming!" said a handsome voice, one that I recognized immediately.
I turned around and saw Michael, looking hotter then ever – no joke. I really felt like wrapping my arms around him and never letting go! But of course, I knew better, so I just paused and managed to say "Hi." In a really quiet voice.
But he looked happier than ever. Looks like he didn't miss me or spend every waking day of his life thinking about me either… like I did. I think I should book an appointment with the Drs. Moscovitz, maybe they can help me. Instead of shaking like me, Michael held his hand out. I had no idea what he was doing because, as you may have guessed I was off in Michael land, but then I held my hand out and he shook it. SEE?!? HAND SHAKE NO HUG! That is so unfair! So, I was kind of sad, but by that point I really felt like smelling Michael's neck… it probably smelt of soap – like always. So we sat down on the sofa in his living room and we began talking.
"So Michael, how was your experience in Japan? Did you manage to build the robot?" I asked.
"Yeah, yeah actually I did, but it hasn't been set to work, so the doctors told me I could come back – and that my work was done." He replied.
"Oh, congratulations!"
"Thanks." He said.
Oh Michael I love you and I miss you and you are my life!!!! Is what I felt like saying. Of course, I didn't, because I don't know if he feels the same way about me yet… but as I was about to begin another conversation – about his college in Columbia, he stood up and told me that dinner was ready.
So, we all sat down at the table – me next to Lilly, (yes, too afraid to sit next to Michael) the Drs. Moscovitz across each other, and Michael sitting across me, leaving an empty seat right next to him at the six-seater table. But then he picked up his knife and hit it on his glass cup so it made the tapping noise to get our attention, and began:
"Mom, dad, Lilly, Mia… and Lars," He looked at Lars, "Ugh, yeah, well I told you I have a surprise, and, well, here goes nothing: I would like you all to meet my girlfriend, Rebecca McMillan."
Right after he said those words, I felt my heart practically shred into tiny little pieces as a tall, thin and beautiful young lady wearing a pink silk dress walked out of Michael's bedroom – MICHAEL'S BEDROOM – and waved at us. I seriously felt like running out crying. But I didn't, well, at least not then. But then Rebecca went and sat next to Michael and starting going on about how 'Wonderful I think Michael is' or 'Dr & Dr Moscovitz, how did you raise Michael to be such a fine young man?' but every time she said his name, I felt like vomiting my insides out, and believe it or not but he was talking non-stop about her either!!!
"Becca, this is Amelia, my ex, the Princess of Genovia." He introduced me. Amelia? He has NEVER I repeat NEVER called me Amelia. Thermopolis, maybe, but AMELIA. When he introduced me to Doo Pak he called me MIA!
"The Princess?!? You've dated the Princess of Genovia?!? Michael, Michael, you've out done me once again…" she replied happily and excitingly. 'Michael, you've outdone me again.' She didn't even bother to say something like: "OH MY GOD! I cannot believe I'm sitting with the Princess of Genovia, wait until I tell my friends!" like everybody else and showed some courtesy or something. Well HELLO I've got to say that if it wasn't for me I wouldn't have agreed to GO OUT with Michael in the first place… but then again if it wasn't for me I wouldn't have broken up with Michael so – I guess he has a right to get a girlfriend. Then Michael continued talking about Rebecca – or should I say 'Becca' – and said something like this:
"Becca is from Minnesota. She said she used to ride to the lakes on her bike everyday –"
No offense Michael, but I really DON'T want to know that Becca 'riders her bike to the lake EVERY GOD DAMN DAY.' Ok?
Then as Michael was happily bragging about her, Dr. (Mr.) Moscovitz popped a question:
"Rebecca, what are you studying and why were you in Japan?"
"Oh, well I –"
"Rebecca is studying to be a cardiologist," Michael interrupted, "so they assigned her as my partner to help me build the robot."
"Precisely. But I'm just so happy to be here." Said Rebecca snottily – well in my point of view at least.
"Whatever." Coughed Lilly. Wow she hadn't spoken for a few minutes, "Michael, you haven't introduced ME as your superior."
"More like immature little sister who doesn't deserve—"
"Michael," Rebecca begn, "let's not get into fights, okay? But please introduce me to your –"
"Name's Lilly Moscovitz, Mia's best pal, and believe it or not but I helped her through her situation as a princess and do I get any credit for it?? No, so Michael, stop bragging about your new girlfriend or telling her about HOW you USED TO I repeat USED TO date Mia but you aren't anymore since you guys have SPLIT UP." She blurted.
Score one for me! Yay for Lilly! Note to self: Thank Lilly tomorrow or tonight if I don't run out crying…
But just as Michael was about to bite back at Lilly's reply, Becca had to say something:
"Alright Mikey, like I said before, let's leave this a peaceful dinner." She was standing up now, but not for long because she sat back down and kissed Michael. As in actually KISSED MICHAEL. I swear I felt like pulling out Lars' gun and shooting both of them with it. But I didn't, because the only thing that shot out from me were TEARS! I was crying so badly, I had no idea what I was doing. Well, it wasn't badly there, it was just tearing, but I gave Lars a signal to make some stupid excuse that we had to go, which he gladfully did, after I stood up.
"Mia, where are you going?" Lilly asked.
"Ugh, well, the Princess has to go meet the Queen & the King to discuss some government issues in Genovia. Thank you for this dinner it was delightful." Lars said, backing me up.
"Congratulations." I managed to squeak before I burst out crying.
Then I scurried out of the room, and the last thing I heard was:
"I didn't know Mia ate meat." – from Michael, of course.
That's because he hadn't bothered to ask me about my state after he left! Great! Just the type of guy I need – and yet I still love him!!!
See, isn't that just really sad and mean and heartbreaking?? And I'm still crying my eyes out!!! Since 9:30!!! What. Is. Happening?
Of course I don't know. The only thing that I know is that Michael has a girlfriend… and I need someone to help me… someone very, very evil…
Saturday, 3rd March, 1:00 PM, the Plaza Hotel.
"Sit down Amelia, and let's start today's Princess Lessons."
