Later that evening after we had returned from our morning at my old high school and gone to visit the Botanical Gardens, a place that grandma had taken me to when I was in the middle of princess training, Andrew and I were now sitting in the lounge of our suite as we waited to be served supper in our room. Well that was until Andrew was asked if he wanted to play a game of poker, when he looked at me I nodded. He was still a man and needed time away from me and it wasn't like we didn't have the rest of our lives to spend together, besides it would give me time to think about the look he had been giving me since the ceremony this morning. I had never seen it on him before and it wasn't like I had very much experience with expressions or men for that matter. I mean my only experience with men was with Michael and Nick, one who I truly had feelings for and wanted to be with and the other a man who had only been after me for the crown. There had been a time when I really thought that Michael would be the one for me, and it had looked that way for such a long time, that is until he chose his band over me, saying that while he loved me he couldn't do anything because I was his baby sisters best friend and that could go two different ways but the track it was starting to head down was not a good one. The more I thought about it the more I realised that even though Andrew and I had only known each other for just over a month, I finally felt loved and accepted for who I was, mistakes and all. He wasn't trying to change me, just trying to support me with all the responsibility that I had been given, and he was doing a fantastic job with that. Maybe the look that he'd been giving me all day was a continuation from the plane ride yesterday and last night when we'd had a steamy make out session on the couch, maybe it was his way of showing that he was ready even though he was trying to hold back. What I needed right now was a conversation with my mum.

Getting up out of my chair and making my way down the stairs I headed for the kitchen hoping that my temporary maids where in there and that I could maybe sneak some ice cream to help me with my current dilemma. I so wanted to go further in our relationship than what I had ever been before, but I was scared. I mean I was still a virgin and I was unsure about Andrew, I mean he was a couple of years older than myself so it wouldn't surprise me if he wasn't anymore, but then again I was also eager to do it with Andrew because I needed to show him the love I had for him even though it was still early on in our relationship. Then there was the nagging feeling that because we were married now there was the added pressure of giving everyone an heir to the throne, something that was the furthest thing from my memory at the moment but I knew that it would happen eventually, though I wasn't ready for that part of marriage just yet. I was giving myself a headache just thinking through all of this stuff and when I finally realised where I was I smiled proud that my memory still served me in trying to remember the maze that was the consulate, if we had been back in the palace it would've taken me less time to find the kitchen but I knew my way from my room there because it hadn't changed. This time I was in an upgraded suite and I hadn't stayed in the consulate many times before. The kitchen was empty when I entered, so I made my way over to the freezer grabbing some ice cream from the freezer I sat in one of the chairs, before pressing the buzzer against the wall

"Clark, can you send Mary to the kitchen please?" I asked the speaker and knew that he would make sure she was here quickly.

"Of course Princess, she is on her way down to see you now" he said and I nodded

"Thank you Clark" I said, before making my way over to the stools around the table and sat down.

"Princess, Clark said you wanted to see me" Mary said upon entering the kitchen. I looked up and smiled

"Yes Mary. I was wondering if I could make a phone call to my mother?" I asked and she nodded. Making her way over to the phone and dialling the number for the palace back in Genovia. If it was 8.30pm here in America it would be about 8.30am in Genovia. I was in the middle of thinking that when she came over to me with the phone in her hand but her hand covering the speaker phone.

"I'm sorry princess but your mother, step-father and half-brother have all gone to England before they return to America, according to the maids, they will be returning to America in two days. But the queen would like to talk to you" she said and I thought to myself. Did I really need to discuss it right now? And what would be the harm of talking with my grandma? Especially since she had been in the exact situation when she was newly married, besides I did want to speak to her.

"Ok, thank you very much Mary" I said and she handed over the phone.

"Will there be anything else I can get you Princess?" she asked and I shook my head

"No that will be all for now thank you Mary" I said and she curtsied before leaving the room. Taking a deep breath before putting the phone to my ear I smiled and greeted my grandma

"Good morning Grandma" I said

"Hello dearest Mia" she answered back and I smiled, wanting to congratulate her before I really got into what I wanted to talk about.

"Congratulations on your engagement Grandma" I said and heard her laugh softly

"Thank you Mia, and how's Joe?" she asked and I smiled

"He's very happy grandma" I said and she sighed contently. I knew what that meant because I felt like doing the same when I thought of Andrew.

"So how is your honeymoon going Mia?" she asked and I smiled

"It's going really good. We had our first appearance as a married couple, Grove high school was opening their new library and I was asked to open it. And grandma they named it after me, which is odd but quite nice" I said and she congratulated me.

I told her about mine and Andrew's trip to the gardens and then it turned to the serious stuff that I needed to talk to her about.

"Grandma, I really some advice from you. And I'm asking you because you've been in my situation and if I ask anyone else then they'll think I'm odd for having so many questions running through my head, I know Lily defiantly would if I could talk to her" I said and I heard her place down her glasses and the pen that she usually had in her hand at this time of day, signing papers and reading through contracts and such.

"Alright Mia, what is wrong?" she asked and I laughed a little

"I wouldn't say it was anything to worry about much, but I am freaking out about it" I said and she queried

"This has nothing to do with your future as queen does it?" and I shook my head

"Not really, well a little bit but not really. Anyway, after leaving the palace yesterday and getting on the plane, Andrew and I we uh we were sitting on one of the couches together, which turned into the both of us falling asleep atop one another. Well when I woke, it shocked me how cool I was with the idea of waking next to Andrew, and how I wasn't scared of the fact that we would be together forever, whereas a few days ago I was absolutely terrified. Since then he's had this look in his eyes and he's touching me an awful lot and I want to take things further but I don't know if he's ready to or not. And if we do take things further I am incredibly scared, I mean I've never been active sexually and I don't know if he is and oh god this is so strange. But I just really want to show him how much I love him, which is weird in its own right cause I never even thought I could fall in love with him so quickly, but I have" I explained nervously blushing at the topic and the fact that I was explaining how much I wanted to make love to my husband to my grandmother and how much it scared me. I had almost finished the ice cream having eaten it all out of nerves when grandma responded.

"Do you love him Mia?" she asked and I sighed, wasn't this a part of the dilemma I had just explained to her.

"Yes I do and that terrifies me" I said and she asked another question

"Would you give up everything for him?"

"Yes" I answered not even giving it a second thought, if I had to choose it would be Andrew always.

"That tells me one thing Mia, that no matter how scared of what you are about to do you are ready to do it. Life isn't about being perfect darling, it is alright to be scared of what is to come but know that in the end it will all be alright. Besides you have a husband who loves you and has proven his worth. You may not know everything about each other but that's what marriage is, it's about getting to know about each other and learning to live with the good and the bad. Be proud of the fact that you feel this way about each other and don't be scared about acting on your feelings, it will all be worth it in the end" she said and I sat there thinking through what she had said. I was about to ask her something when I heard someone say something to her and she sighed

"Alright Mia darling I need to go, but please ring me if you need to talk, even if it's just to gossip" she said and I nodded a huge smile on my face

"Ok grandma. I love you" I said

"I love you too Mia, I'll see you soon" she said before hanging up. Knowing that what she had told me was true, I put the lid on the ice cream punnet and put it back in the freezer before making my way back up to the suite I shared with Andrew.
