Chapter 9
I woke up alone in the bed and Dimitri was not with me. I was so happy. I am going to be the mother of Dimitri's child and he still loves me. Flashes of last night came back to me and it was a bliss. I have missed him so much and last night, I felt the hole in my chest disappear.
I was probably smiling like a child who just received a piece of candy and is really happy about it. I can already see a boy running around who looks just like Dimitri, with my eyes and hair color and Dimitri running after him and teaching him how to fight.
"Your majesty, you look so happy today. What's the reason?" Viktoria asked. I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't know when she came in.
"Does that have something to do with the Captain?" Sydney asked. I blushed knowing that I was barely covered in the blankets and my clothes were all over on the floor.
"Aw, is our Queen embarrassed?" Viktoria asked and both of them started laughing. I can't believe that they are doing this. Wait a second, how did they found out about Dimitri and me?
"Would you both stop teasing me? How did you guys find out about Dimitri and me?" I asked covering myself in the blanket.
"Well we all found out the night that you ended things with him." Sydney said.
"What do you mean by 'all'?" I asked.
"By 'all', I mean all your ladies, including Mia and Lissa, King Ozera, Eddie, and us." She said. Oh god no, they don't know.
"Don't worry we all support both of you and it was King Ozera's idea that Dimitri and I do that little act to make you jealous." Sydney said. Next time Christian comes for a visit, I am going to put my sword against his neck.
"Well how am I going to take a bath?" I asked because I surely would not stay without shower for four weeks.
"There is a lake near here and all of us will take a bath there. We were going to go alone first, but then thought you would be more comfortable if we joined you and Dimitri and Eddie would guard, so no one cane see us," Viktoria said. Oh great. I am okay with Eddie being there but Dimitri. That would just make me want him to be in the water with me.
I found my gown on the floor and put it on. Sydney picked out my clothes and we all left to go to the lake. Everyone was already out and up and I looked really bad. I haven't even washed my face yet, my hair isn't made and since last night it looks like a lion's mane. I was walking in front, Sydney and Viktoria trailing behind me. Sometimes I hated them and wanted to kill them because they are so mean.
When we arrived at the lake, Dimitri and Eddie were already there. They were both sitting on the big rocks and were talking and laughing. It's been so long since I have seen both of them laughing like this.
"Good morning, your majesty." Both of them say and bowed. Oh god!
"Cut it out, both of you. There is no one here, so you don't need to pretend." I said, frustrated. I know they love to get me angry. Both of them looked like they were trying to hide their laughs.
"We are giving you the respect you require, your majesty, and now we don't want you to lock us up in the dungeons." Dimitri said. I glared at him. Why would I lock them up in dungeons for not calling me your majesty? I don't want them to call me that.
"Ugh!" I said in frustration and walked to the water. They all laughed, I so want to kill them right now. They are always mean to me. We all grew up together and used to play, but now that I am a queen, they always find occasions to make fun of.
I strip of my clothes and walk into the lake. The water was cold, but it was better than nothing. Viktoria and Sydney also stripped and came in the lake. Dimitri and Eddie had their backs to us. All three of us were giggling like little girls and when I started splashing water at both of them, they started to splash back.
"Rose, stop it." Viktoria said.
"No." I said and showed her my tongue. I was being a little girl, but it felt so nice being a child. It was like we were little girls again and we can do what we want to. We used to always go to the lake, which is behind our castle in the woods, and have fun.
"Ah!" Sydney said and splashed more water on Viktoria and me. We were having a lot of fun. Viktoria eased in and started playing along. We were so lost in our own little world.
"Girls, stop playing and hurry up." It was Dimitri who said it. We forgot that they were here to. We were in the water for another five minutes and got out. We dried ourselves with towels.
I put my dress on which was a salmon color and it went down to my feet. It was long and it was a gown. It had a round neckline and a lot of heavy beadings done in a cold color. It also had a veil that was beautiful and done in heavy beading which was heavier than my dress. I put on my jewelry then sat on a rock while Sydney made my hair into a bun.
"We are done, lets go." I said.
"Finally." Dimitri said. I slapped him on the arm.
"Ouch Roza, that hurt." He said.
"Yeah, like you getting a slap from me can hurt you." I said.
"You know you are stronger than all the guards." Dimitri said.
"I agree." Eddie said. Both of them have some nerves.
"Yeah, like I can take both of you down." I said.
"Of course you can." Both Dimitri and Eddie said together in unison.
"You guys are giants and I still remember the last time I fought with both you, I was in bed for two weeks." I said and both of them laughed. I was in training with both of them together, which was not a good idea. I can hardly take one of them down and I was so stupid by agreeing to fight with both of them together.
"Come on your majesty, we all know how strong you are and can take the whole guard down." Eddie said and I was getting really angry with them now. They always make fun of me.
"Now if you both don't stop and behave I will definitely have you guys locked in the dungeons." I said seriously. Of course I am not really going to do that, but it would maybe shut them up.
"You are not really going to do that are you?" Dimitri asked.
"Of course I will. Both of you said earlier that I am your queen and you guys need to give me respect. So give me respect or I am going to get you guys locked in the dungeons and I will put you in the dark ones with no food or water." I said and we were all by our tents now.
"Your majesty, I can have them put in the dungeons for you." King Adrian said. Now why would I want that? If you want to put someone in the dungeons, you can put them yourself or give me the privilege.
"It's okay, your highness, if I want I can have them locked in the dungeons by myself." I said and fake smiled at him, which he returned. He started to walk towards me and I saw Dimitri walking towards him.
There was some space in between them and I saw Dimitri put his foot where Adrian was about to step, which made him trip and fall down on his face. That was funny. I can't believe Dimitri did that. I saw his guardians running towards him but Dimitri gave him his hand which he took and got up.
"Your Highness, if you can't keep yourself safe, how are you going to protect her majesty?" Dimitri asked with an eyebrow raised. Adrian was glaring at him and we were all trying hard not to laugh.
"Your Highness, are you okay?" his guards asked.
"I am fine." He said. Clearly he was really angry. It was so shameful for him to fall like this. A king is supposed to protect people and does not go around and fall. It wasn't his fault, but it serves him right. He is so mean and he needs to learn a lesson.
"Your Highness, are you really okay because that was a really hard fall and your nose is bleeding." I said. I wanted to laugh but I had to control. This is like the second day that we embarrassed him.
"I am fine." He said through clenched teeth and walked to his tent. We all looked at each other and tried hard to not laugh. We all walked to my tent and we all laughed.
"Dimitri." I said through laughs.
"What did I do? It's not my fault that the king can't watch where he's going." Dimitri said and we all laughed again.
I thought this would not be a good trip but it's turning out better and better and I want to see what else this would be. I have only been happy since yesterday, except the part about Sydney and Dimitri, but that was only to make me jealous. I know Dimitri and I will find our happily after.
