Another sort of filler chapter...Hope you enjoy.

"C'mon Lee out of bed and stop sulking. Important day today," Toby exclaimed as him and Paul entered his bedroom.

Lee was in his bed, duvet pulled over his head as he groaned. He didn't want to to go through today, he didn't want to have to put on fake smiles and produce fake happiness, and it wasn't going to happen.

It had only been a couple of days since he'd had to break up with Lucy. When he arrived back at the palace, he ignored his parents and went straight to his room. Items were thrown and broken but he didn't care. His mother had visited him later that day when he refused to go down for dinner, preferring to eat in his room. Lee's mother was shorter than him but taller than Frank and had a medium build. She adorned brunette hair and blue eyes, very much like Lee. She'd asked him if he was ok but then backtracked saying it was a stupid question. Jeanette spent a few hours talking with her son about what he had been doing in the past couple of weeks, Lee showing her pictures as he replayed memories. She'd never seen him as happy and excited as he spoke about what she liked to call it adventures and about the girl in which she had found out was named Lucy. If she was honest they looked cute together, from the photographs but there was no changing Franks mind when he'd set it on something. Stubborn git.

Lee groaned even louder as the duvet was pulled off of him and water was thrown in his face. Shooting up he glared at the pair, they didn't need to speak as they handed him a towel and shampoo. Rolling his eyes he took the items off of them and stalked into the bathroom like a moody teenager. Paul and Toby rolling their eyes as Toby got Lee's military uniform out of hours dry cleaning bag.

Lee's uniform was grey and had a belt that tied around the waist, his medals which had been freshly polished were to go on his right side and his cap. The buttons were and a sparkling silver and the shoulder emblems represented his country. His freshly shined black dress shoes were placed on the chair next to the wardrobe were it hung off of and his grandfather's pocket watch was placed on the bedside table, it was his good luck charm and he never attended a royal event without it. Great Britain and Elliel were close and bared many similarities.

Coming out of the shower Lee looked at himself in the mirror, he needed a shave but he knew his dad had wanted him to keep the beard for the event. Although he hated his father at the moment he had to do what he was told, so he trimmed the neared until it was close to becoming stubble. You could tell it was still him and yet if Lucy saw him she would recognise him. But she wasn't going today and that was a slight relief.

Dabbing himself with aftershave he combed his hair before going out to see that Toby and Paul had left and his clothes for the day were hanging up. Grabbing a white t-shirt from a draw he placed it on before getting dressed. The bullet proof jacket going on first. Putting his medals on just before. The last item to be put on was his cap. Standing tall he had to forget about the happenings of the past couple of days and get on with the day. The quicker it began the quicker it would be over.

Lee was the one in the most risk. His parents and older members of the royal families were to ride in the car and he was riding Tim the horse. So if anyone decided to go on a shooting spree he would halve to jump off the horse and into the car, although he wasn't planning on leaving Tim. Lee was relaxed about it though security in London for events like these were amazing and he knew there was only a slight possibility of anything happening.

"I don't want to go mum," Lucy grumbled as she spoke to her parents who were sitting on the sofa with cups of tea in hand.

"Why not?" Wendy questioned. Her daughter had been gloomy for the past couple of days and she had no idea why.

"Look...I know I've decided to have the day off work, doesn't mean I want to stand in the streets to watch a parade with the rest of bloody London. I can watch it on the television," she defended as Geoffrey sighed.

"Please Lucy. Only for a few hours and then we won't bother you. We'd really like to spend some time with you," Wendy tried coaxing as her father nodded his head.

"Fine."

"C'mon then let's go," Geoffrey exclaimed as he stood up.

"What? Now?" Lucy questioned as she jumped up off of the sofa. There was three hours until it began. It wasn't exactly a short parade either.

"We want a good view don't we?"

"You look very smart," his mother complimented him as they stood in the grounds, ready to go out.

"Thank you," Lee replied as he took hold of Tim.

"Paul's having the chance to escort you today. Don't mess this up," Frank instructed him as Lee sighed.

"Yes dad."

"It will all be over soon," Paul told him as Lee smiled back, he couldn't wait for that moment. Mounting their horses Lee's back straightened and he held his head high as the gated were opened and the first cars left, him following after his parents.
