Author's note:

I know I haven't posted for like a year, and you know the reason, anyway here is the new and revised chapter 3… I hope you like it. Again, I'm sorry. I've decided to erase the other chapter 3, so that you won't be confused on the story line But it is still mostly the same. But before you read it, The Italic parts are Derek's thoughts and theunderline parts are thoughts of other character.

DASEYRELLA

Chapter 3: Lizzard, the Not So Prank Master

Derek rested his head on the pillow thinking on what just happened between him and Casey in the kitchen.

DEREK's POV

Did I really blush?! No way. I mean, me, blush, and Casey do not go in the same sentence… It didn't happen. But it did, oh crap, am I really feeling something towards Casey. I mean this had never ever happened to me before. Oh well, I guess I'll just sleep to forget all these. Maybe I'm already dreaming. And all of this is just a dream…

_ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _


Usually when I weak in the morning and open my eyes, I would always take a quick sleep and put my pillow in my head to sleep a little more, but this morning is different. When I woke up, I
found myself lying in a king-sized bed. Then the room was different. It was bigger than my actual room. And it has weird color, and the smell is even weirder. I have a bad feeling about this. Did I just make out with another girl??? OH MY GOD, did I just had sex on some girl?! NO WAY!!! As far as I can remember, I wasn't drunk last night; I didn't go to any party or any bar last night… Then what the hell am I doing here?!

After a few minutes staring around the whole room, and after trying to remember what happened to me last night, I heard a sound of a woman's voice calling me.

"Oh, Prince Derek, Prince Derek!" He heard a woman calling his name from behind his big door.

The silver-colored door, where the lady who was calling his name from the other side of the door opened, reveals a woman wearing a weird uniform. As Derek looked at her from bottom to top, he remembered her outfit from one of Casey's soap operas and lame TV shows. I think it looks something like what maid wears from other countries and fairy tales… Yeah, Derek thought. Then he looks at her face again, and again, and again. Is there something wrong with me, or it's just this lady just looks like Lizzard. Derek looks at her face again. No way, she looks way older, but if you really look at her face, she does look like Lizzard. Then he saw her smiling. AHA! I knew it… It's April Fool's Day, and she was pranking me… Way to go Lizzard, but you can't fool the master of pranks…

"Nice one Lizzard, but I can't be fooled by your foolish pranks, I am the Master of Pranks, you know," Derek said.

"I know you are a master, my Master. But I am sorry to disappoint you. I am not pranking anyone here, especially you my Master!!!" The lady-who-looks-like-Lizzie-wearing-weird-outfit told Derek.

"I know I am a master of pranks but will you just cut the crap!! I just woke up, and this is not what I want to see when I wake up." Derek said with an annoyed face, but then he got worried when the lady-who-looks-like-Lizzie-wearing-weird-outfit looks annoyed.

"I know you don't want me here, every time you wake up, but now is not the time to be fooling around, Master. Today is your birthday and Grand Ball. You must not be late for this event!!!"

"Grand Ball?! What are you talking about??" Really Lizzard is starting to be annoying. What's up with her anyway?!

"Oh, I see what is happening here."

Then she just looked at me. Smirking?! Why?! Is there something on my face? So I looked at the big mirror, then I saw nothing on my face. So I asked her again, "Why are you smiling like that?"

"Oh master, I know what's happening here… My Majesty, I think you're nervous, aren't you?!"

Wait, did she just call me "Majesty", like a prince thing. You have got to be kidding me. Oh yeah!! Stupid, she had just been calling me master and Prince Derek before. Isn't master and majesty and prince kind of like the same?! Whatever… Wait did she just said I'm nervous?! Nervous for what, although I'm not saying I'm ever nervous, because the great Derek Venturi never gets nervous…

She continued, "Nervous?! I know you are nervous, yet excited on your Grand ball." After saying that, she finished fixing his bed, she went to the other door, full of clothes.

Grand Ball?! Like prom?! Why didn't I know that we have a prom? It's not like it's the end of the school year, already, and I forgot about the prom?! And, plus I don't have a partner for the prom, or grand ball thing?! Oh men, I had probably slept for a really long time not to know this… Oh yeah, world record, longest sleep for a like almost half a year. Wait, What am I talking about. Relax. Just relax. This is just nothing.

After she got back, I asked her, "So tell me about this Grand Ball?"

She said in a weird accent, "Oh, my master! I knew it you are nervous!! I mean you wouldn't forget your Grand Ball if you're not nervous." She said with a smirk in her. Thanks I'm making you happy… She continued, "Grand Ball is a celebration for your birthday party, and since you are turning 18 and had finished your study about royalties stuffs, you are ready to be the Prince of this Kingdom and ready to introduce you as our prince to the other Kingdom, got it!" After explaining Derek about his Grand Ball, she looked at Derek's face and laughed a little bit.

Boring… Boring… Boring… But I think I should try to listen, or else she'll repeat again. Wait Why is she smirking again? I wonder what she's thinking?!

I knew that Prince Derek will always be the same when it comes to these serious stuffs. But I think he forgot the 'best' part, well the best part for him. "Oh, did I forgot to mention about the maidens waiting for you downstairs to appear?!" Derek's face look at her more confused.

Maindens?! What is good about that?! Derek thought.

Still the same reaction huh?! Hmm… I think, I should change it more on how Prince Derek say it. If I remember it correctly, he always say HOT CHICKS, or HOT BABES or just HOT LADIES every time he see beautiful maidens… HEHEHE

I think I should look more interesting on what she said… I can't take anymore of her. Look at her now with her evil smile. I wonder what she's thinking or going to say?!

"Still can't remember can you?" Derek shook his head. "Many beautiful maidens in gowns are waiting for you down at the Grand Ball. Meaning HOT CHICKS!!! HOT LADIES!!! HOT BABES!!! CLEAVAGE!!! BWAHAHAHA!!!" Then Derek's face was drooling and his eyes widen. I think I over-do-it. I shouldn't have said about the cleavage thing, should it?! I got to stop talking to myself.

Derek finally talked, "Females?! Beautiful ladies?! Hot chicks?! Hot ladies?! Down stairs." Could I sound any dumber?

"Yes, yes, yes, yes and yes." She answered. Derek looked at her. "Well you have five questions, and I answered YES five times." Derek looks at knowingly, like it just hit him.

"Oh and the best part is…"

There's more…

"You are going to pick one of them-" but she was interrupted by Derek.

"One?!" One only, why not all of them?!

"Well, only one of them, and then dance with that person you chose and-" Derek interrupted again.

"Dance?" I don't like the sound of this. Though I don't think Crazy Legs minds to butt in.

"Yes dance with her. And maybe at the last part of the dance, you can kiss her." I hope he doesn't ask any more questions.

Maybe?! Tic-Tac-Tic-Tac...

"Kiss?!" Derek smile widens. Oh great! Know he gets it, maybe I should just leave the marriage part…

"Wonderful! Know that you understand everything, bathe yourself and dress up, your father wants to talk to you first before the Grand Ball begins." She said and walks to the silver door. But before she goes out, "Oh, and after you finished, make it quick please, the butler will be waiting for you outside the hall. Good luck!" Then she left waving a good bye to him.

After the she left, Derek did what she told him. He opened the other, where she went before, assuming that this door will lead him to the bathroom. And it did, the only problem is that it doesn't look like a bathroom to him. The bathroom looks bigger than his whole house (the McDonald-Venturi house). The bathtub is so big. Is this a jakuzzi?! He turned it on, strip his dress and got into the Jacuzzi. After a few seconds, he felt the water getting hotter and a massage in his back. It is a Jacuzzi. This is relaxing. Before drifting into sleep, he heard a beep sound and a familiar voice saying, "PRINCE DEREK DON'T TRY TO SLEEP… HOT CHICKS, REMEMBER." Heh… Nice one woman-who-looks-like-Lizzard, I would have fallen asleep at this time.

O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o _ O.o

After bathing and putting his towel around his waist, he went to the other room, where door has a sign "CLOSET". Nice. When he opened to door, his eyes widened. Am I at shopping mall, why are there many clothes here?!" The room is filled with many clothes. Wait, but not only clothes, why are there many suits here?! Suits that are for proms?! Then he stopped at his tracks, when he notice a suit in the middle of the room with a sign on the side saying: "GRAND BALL SUIT". The suit is not just any ordinary suite, there where gold patches on the side of the shoulders and black sash hanging from one of the shoulder to the other side of the hips. There are black leather shoes beside it and weird looking hat in it. The suit is in color red, with blue in it and golden buttons. You're kidding me, right?! I cannot wear thing this? I would look like a freak… This is just like one those things the prince wears in Marti's fairy tales, or those things where the guys in the drama club would wear on Casey's theater stuffs. NO WAY!!!

Just as Derek stop from saying these on his thought, he heard another beep and Lizzards voice saying, "Oh, and don't even try on changing you suit, or else you will be electrified, the doors have sensors in the side where it can detect if you're wearing your suit. Just a warning."

Are you kidding me?!

"I'm not kidding?! Okay."

Oh now she can read my mind, too. Then there's another bleep signaling the end of the conversation.

Great now they want to Barbeque me, if I am not wearing this freak show suit. Oh well, guess I don't have a choice, besides I have tons of girls waiting for me outside here.

He changed on to his suit. After looking himself with it in the mirror and giving it a horror and disgust look, he carefully went through the door, nervous… Hoping it won't bleep and barbeque him.

Please don't barbeque me. I'm still young. I still have a lot of dreams. Derek repeats on saying this on his thoughts and closed his eyes, as he pass through the doors. When he was outside the closet and he didn't hear any bleep or smell any burn, he opened his eyes.

While jumping over and over again, he shouted in rejoice, "YEY! I'M ALIVE!!! I AM NOT BARBEQUED!!! I CAN STILL FOLLOW MY DREAMS!!! WOOOHOOO!!!"

He stopped, when he heard a knock from his door. "Prince Derek, are you ready?"

He heard an unfamiliar, yet a so familiar voice. He fixed himself once more, and walked through the door. When he opened the door, he stopped and said, "Sam?"
