A/N : Hi everybody! Here's the latest chapter of this story. Thanx to all my reviewers; Patty, princessvampire, macdeniken, ndblue123, Hannah Abby, Cassandra Anthemyst, Starbright Moonlight, tetris, swim6515, Lozzi - you lot are the best! It is all the reviews I get that inspire me to right as much as I do. Anyway, I've rambled long enough, so, on with the story...

(Disclaimer : see chapter 1)

Saturday

I can't believe Mia bailed on Lilly again today. Not that I care particularly about my kid sister and her weird cable show but I was kind of looking forward to Mia being around this weekend. Especially now she looks even better than usual. I am so in love with the girl it's painful and the one time I might actually get to spend more than five minutes alone with her, she has to go to her Grandmother's house! She's been spending a lot of time there lately and I'm starting to wonder if its a cover for something else. Is she deliberately avoiding Lilly, or is it me she doesn't want to see?

Either way, Monday morning I plan to fix it so next weekend I definitely get to spend time with Mia. I have two days to work out exactly what I'm going to say and to work up the courage to actually do it.

Sunday

Tomorrow's the big day. I am finally going to ask Mia out. I can't write anymore, my hand is shaking from the nerves. I'm such a coward.

Monday

Okay, this is unbelievable - Mia is a Princess! I'm too shocked to write anymore right now.

Later...

I'm calmer now so I'll start from the beginning.

Joe drove us half way to school when Lilly realised she'd forgotten her Algebra book. Mia knew that Joe didn't have time to drive us back home and then on to school so she said we should all get out and walk. Lilly ran back home to get her book and Mia and I promised to walk slowly to school so that my idiot sister could catch up later.

It was the perfect time to ask Mia out, I had finally got her alone for at least five minutes guaranteed.

"What are you doing this Saturday?" I asked her without actually looking at her.

"Nothing, why, are you guys playing?" I saw her smile out of the corner of my eye.

"Rehearsing some new things. We've got two new songs" I told her, of course I didn't mention that both of them were about her. It was so perfect, if I could just get her to hear them I'm sure she'd know how I felt, "Plus, surprise, we got the new parts for your Mustang" I added and her smile grew, "We could put it together, together" I suggested and she spoke quietly.

"What, like a date?"

"No" I said like a reflex, before realising I'd just denied the truth "Music, cars..." I thought aloud.

"Well, does it include pizza?" she grinned, knowing that it would.

"Of course, pizza's a given"

"With M&M's on?" she asked next.

"Yeah" I grinned too, she knows me so well.

"Well, then I am totally in" I couldn't believe she'd agreed.

"This Saturday? It's on?" I verified and I was pleasantly shocked to hear her reply.

"Yeah, sure"

The moment was over then as Lilly started yelling for us to wait for her. The whole date thing hadn't gone quite to plan, but she was going to come on Saturday and that was what mattered. It was what happened next that completely freaked me out.

We got up to the front of the school and there were these photographers and reporters everywhere. At first we thought maybe it was a protest or something, until Mia walked up to the nearest guy with a camera and asked what all the people were doing.

Immediately, Lana 'the idiot cheerleader' Thomas, pointed down at us and yelled, "That's her, that's Mia Thermopolis"

All these camera flashes went off and reporters started yelling questions at Mia. I asked Lilly what was going on.

"Why are they calling her a Princess?"

Lilly didn't answer, she just started pushing through the crowd and dragging me along with her.

When we were away from all the crowds, I demanded an explanation from my sister. Turns out Mia, the girl I'm in love with, is the Princess of a small European country called Genovia and that is the reason she hasn't been over to our house much lately. Her Grandmother who she goes to visit all the time is the Queen of this place, Genovia, and she's been teaching Mia to be a Princess and giving her make-overs and stuff. It's a lot to take in, but it doesn't change how I feel about her. I don't blame her for not telling me, I mean, why would she. I'm only her best friends brother, she doesn't realise how I feel about her. Anyway, that's all I really have to say for now. I only hope that 'the Princess' will still be able to come on our 'non-date' on Saturday.

A/N : Please review and I'll get the next chapter up as soon as I can.
