Alanna felt refreshed and excited the next morning. She stretched, and poked Jon to wake him up. Soon, they both went down to eat. When they got to the Noble's Mess Hall, people gasped and jumped to their feet. They weren't used to seeing the King amongst them.
Alanna almost forgot her worries until they strolled through the Noble's Mess Hall doors, hand in hand, to where she was sitting with Jon and Gary.
"My Dear Escera. Would you please wait for me whilst I get us some food? George said loudly, directing his voice to Alanna's table.
Alanna was almost immune to George's taunts by now. She had Jon, and he was all she needed. Escera sat down at a table close to Alanna's, where she could sneer and irk the Lady Knight without anyone noticing. George soon returned, and gave Escera a flowery speech about how beautiful she was. It almost made Alanna sick.
"I bet my shield she's using him," Gary whispered to Jon. He nodded and smirked. George would get just what was coming to him, if that was the case.
