A/N I don't know why I've suddenly decided why I'm writing this... I don't even know how to post it. Plus it might not even be worth putting up. However, my brother and I are having a current fight over the internet, and I can't read any Princess Diaries fanfics if I can't get onlilne, so I decided to write my own. This is my first fic, so how about a little encouragement?

Summary: Forget the stuff that happened in books 2 and 3. While you're at it, forget the ending of book one, too. Because, that means that I can pair Mia with Josh. Oh, and before you all run away, it is a mia/michael fic. *every1 returns*

Disclaimer: I am not Meg Cabot, the Princess Diaries is hers and not mine. Umm, characters are all hers, I do not own any of this. Ok, all clear? On with the story.

Saturday October 17
I am sooooo happy! Is there any other way to explain my hyper-activeness? I am going out with the love of my life, Josh Richter! The one whose electric blue eyes can see what I'm thinking, can see me for who I really am! Not the Princess of Genovia, not Thermopolis, but Mia. Me.

After I came back from school, I immediately told the first person I saw about the cause for my intense excitement/happiness/mixture of good emotions.

That first person happened to be Mr Gianini. Uh, Mia, please repeat yourself. Huh? Repeat WHAT? I'm going to the Culture Diversity Dance with Josh Richter I told him, smiling happily. Um, well.... don't you think--- I can't think properly, Mr G. I'm that happy.

At that point, he seemed to change his mind about simething he wanted to say. Wonder what it was....? Oh well, nevermind. After that, he wished me a good time and told me that he would be out with mum (A/N Do you guys spell it mom or mum?) and that he'll expect me home by 11:30.

Which is not so bad, really. Gives Josh and I plenty of time to express our undying love, and perhaps - I WISH- do a little.....well, you know. Hey, a girl can dream.
Uh-oh! Gotta go, Josh is here!

Still Saturday, Tavern on the green

You look beautiful, Mia Josh said, smiling that heartbreaking smile. I.uh......you too, Josh WHAT AN IDIOTIC REMARK!! Uh, you too. He didn't need to find out about my lack of vocubulary this quickly!!

Thankfully, Josh saved me embarrassment by steping in quickly to talk about how basketball not only made a person taller, but also more healthy.....and on and on.

Well, Lars offered to drive the car, so Josh and I talked non-stop about sports. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a jock or anything, but I could talk about anything while the guy of my dreams held me captive to his gaze. Oh, I love blue eyes.

Oh yeah, we had the MOST ROMANTIC dinner at Tavern on the Green. Josh even remembered me babbling that I am vegeterian, and ordered me some special, 100% vegeterian dish. Now, wasn't that SWEET?

We (obviously) left for the Culture Diversity Dance, where I spent half an hour listening to Josh ramble on about team sports, and how they were good for your social skills, and blah, blah, blah. Still, this I will endure, if only for my true love.

Josh wanted to dance with all the other girls, he told me it was only polite, so I went to dance with other guys. However, the first dance that Josh did reserve me was absolutely wonderful. He twirled me around, making me feel elegant, graceful, and beautiful. However, I realise that his gaze did linger on Lana Weinberger, who was the only girl present that he did not dance with.
