A/N Sorry for the lateness of the chapter. I hope you like it! Thanks for all the positive reviews and sorry to all the people who couldn't review, I know that some had trouble reviewing for the last chapter. Hopefully it won't happen again. Now with the chapter!
December's POV
"Well what," Amber demanded, "Where you just going to sit there and let us wonder about how your date went?"
"Yah. Pretty much," Zach said finally looking up from his book.
Amber screeched with frustration and stomped out of Zach's room.
"So are you planning to tell her about it anytime soon?" I asked, curious of Zach's answer.
"Yah, I'll tell her after dinner tonight," Zach said sighing, knowing that I would not stop until he told Amber about the date.
"Fine," I huffed, "But if you 'forget' Amber and I know where you live."
"Ha-ha very funny," Zach said monotone.
"Yes, I know," I say in the same tone.
I turned and left, because we all knew that Zach wasn't going to pay any attention to me. I walked back to my room and sat down on a chair. Then I moved to the bed, and then I moved to the piano bench, I was bored. I couldn't stay still.
"Um… excuse me," Adelina said knocking on my door.
I shot up, and quickly opened the door.
"Hi Adelina," I said excitingly, when one of your maids comes to your room something is bound to happen. And since I was bored and took this opportunity to become excited with the arrival of my newest maid.
"Its time to start to get ready for dinner," she said, gaining a little confidence in her voice.
I nodded and set off to the bathroom, with Adelina close at my heels. I sat in a chair and Adelina did my makeup for dinner. We talked like old friends and played 20 questions.
"What is your favorite color?" I asked.
"Turquoise, but I look best in cayenne" she replied.
"Mine is mint and pink. Favorite animal?"
"Elephants. What's yours?"
"Monkeys, I actually had one once. Then I had to send it back to the zoo," I said laughing, "Okay, so what's your favorite number? Mine is 67."
"2, but my lucky number is 11," she said, still in giggles from the monkey story.
"What's your middle name?"
"Scarlett."
"Vivien. Previous last name?"
"Winchester."
"Schreave. Sweet or sour?"
"Sweet."
"Me too. Chocolate or Vanilla?"
"Chocolate."
"Both. Favorite food?"
"Italian."
"Me too! Have you ever had a boyfriend?"
"Yes. I currently have one now…"
"Cool. I wish I had a boyfriend; I'm stuck in the palace all day, with just my sister and my brother. You get tired of them after awhile."
"I understand that. I have siblings and they can be a pain, but we love them all the same," she said applying eye shadow.
"When was the last time you saw them?" I asked, curious about how often the palace staff sees their families.
"About a week ago. I visit them as often as possible since they live in Angeles. Also I take them to the palace whenever there is a rebel attack. I can't afford to lose them," she replied only stopping to apply more blush.
"Who would you consider your family?"
"My mom, my dad, my 5 siblings, Gweneth who's 18, Nicolas who's 16, Victoria who's 14, Finn who's 10, Jordan who's 8, and Leslie who's 5, and my boyfriend Andrew who's 19.
"What are they like?"
"My mom, Margret, and dad, Noah, are really sick and are bedbound. My sister Gwen takes care of my mom and dad, since I'm getting money for our family. She's secretly dating a 2, his name is Phillip and he's a pianist. Don't tell anyone I told you…" I giggled at the thought of having a secret boyfriend.
"Okay so Gwen has a secret boyfriend, planning to propose to her I might add, my brother Nicolas is a farm hand and is always working. My whole family always pushes him to go on dates, but he claims that he is too busy. My next sibling is Victoria, she's a gardener and is dating a 4. His name is John and is training to be a real estate agent.
"Then there is Finn, he's a young farm hand, always getting into mischief and has a crush on a girl named Isabella. We call her Bella, but anyways, she's homeless and Finn takes her some food everyday to help her live. They both like each other a lot, but are too afraid to tell the other person.
"My youngest sibling is Leslie and she's that baby of the family. She helps Gwen with our parents, and is just really helpful all the time. So that's my family," Adelina finishes with a flourish.
"Okay, so my turn now," I mumbled, because Adelina was doing my lipstick.
"My family includes my mom, America, my dad, Maxon, my 2 siblings, Amber and Zach, and all the royal family that lives in foreign places. I consider you, Lydia, and Sage family since you do so much for me," I explained.
"I'm so touched," Adelina said wiping a fake tear away, "Now that your makeup is finished then we will get into your dress."
"But we haven't finished our game!" I cried, acting all childish.
"Just get the dress on and we will finish it later," she said rolling her eyes.
I had on this really elegant grey dress. It had a lace beaded bodice and a chiffon skirt that kissed my toes. I had on nude colored pumps and diamond chandelier earrings with a matching necklace. Thank goodness for zippers, or my makeup would have been ruined. Sage did my hair in a stylish waterfall braid with a grey ribbon running through it.
I hugged my maids goodbye and made my way towards the Dining Room. I stepped, only to realize that I was 3 minutes late. All the girls stared my way as I walked into the dining room. The click clack of my heels echoed through the room as I made my way to my family's table. I sat down and dug into my meal and the girls sat down. Amber stared at me in awe, at the grand entrance and probably also the dress.
"Why are you late?" Zach asked.
"Yeah," Amber said, "You're never late. Ever."
"I got hung up in my room getting ready," I said nonchalantly.
Zach groaned and turned back to his food.
"So Zach," Amber asked, I knew what the question would be, "How was the date, that you haven't told us about?"
"I'll tell you after dinner," Zach said looking everywhere but at Amber and me.
A/N Hope you all liked that chapter and thanks to all that reviewed. Also I forgot to add a disclaimer in the last chapter and you all know that I'm not Kiera Cass so I'm not going to add one anymore. I'm sorry that it took so long but I hope to update more often now…
Anyway… I don't really want to thank the reviews so Ill just put the names down.

Someone the World Forgot: I will answer this one because I needed to answer it. Okay so I have someone else that is even worse than Stella to make it to the Elite and no one likes but the Prince. So I really had to answer that one to clear that up.
