Discaimer: I do not own the plot, characters, etc. I only based it in modern times and said things differently.

Expostion: This story is the story of Ella, only in modern times! Instead of having an obedience curse, Ella is obedient so that she can do well in school and excel in life, but she is still rebellious in other aspects. (Curses don't fit into modern times.) Ella is rich, and goes to a small private high school, that the Prince also attends. They live in a small country called Kyrria. I know this sounds completely different then the book, but its really not, other than the prologue.

This part doesn't fit in anywhere in the book, I just had to add it to make my story make sense!

Prolouge:

"Oh my god, Ella, look at him. He is so cute!" said my friend, Liz.

I looked up from my pizza and French fries. Liz was looking over at a table where some juniors were sitting.

"Who?" I asked. It was always a good idea to know who Liz's crush of the week was.

"Him - Charles - over there," she replied, pointing to a boy with curly hair and tan skin.

I looked at him. He was cute, but he was the prince of our country! Although Liz had a way with the boys, I doubt he would ever pay much attention to her. Plus, we were only lowly freshman, and he was a junior! I don't know why Liz got so obsessed over these boys.

"Go over and talk to him," I dared her.

"In the middle of the cafeteria? Never. You go talk to him," she replied.

"Me? No!"

"Come on! You aren't shy! He's alone in the lunch line. Just go get more pizza!" she urged me.

"No!" I protested. "I'm not even interested in him. You are. And he's the prince!"

"I knew you could never do it," she giggled.

"Hey! I could do it! I could talk to him! And I will do it! Right now!" I stood up, grabbing my empty plate. I wanted to prove Liz wrong. Plus, if I made a complete fool of myself, Charles would probably just forget about me anyway. I got in line right behind him. He would have been soo much taller than me if I wasn't wearing my tall shoes. I had to think of something to say!

"Uhhh..is there anymore pepperoni pizza?" I asked him. He didn't hear me. Of course not, I was too quiet. "Excuse me?" I said, louder this time. Charles turned around.

"Yeah?" he asked.

"Is there anymore pepperoni pizza?" I asked again.

"Uhhh..there should be." He replied. Well duh! I thought. They usually don't run out of food fourth period lunch. He probably thought I was just a dumb freshman girl. I had to defend myself.

"Oh, I was just making sure, because sometimes they run out of stuff, and I really don't feel like eating pizza without pepperoni on it, and it would be such a waste of time to wait in line for something I don't want, you know?" I was babbling. I thought that he thought that I was just a weird freshman girl, but to my surprise, he laughed.

"I don't think you have to worry," he assured me. I studied his face. He had freckles sprinkled across his nose. This was surprising for such dark skin. Then he asked the lunch lady for a piece of pepperoni pizza. We both liked pepperoni pizza! And he was the prince!

After I got my piece, I sat back down with Liz. "Wow," I said, letting out a breath. "I said something! It was stupid, but it was something!"

"Good job!" Liz congratulated me. "Today, junior boys, tomorrow, senior boys."

"I don't think so," I laughed.

This is me. I hope you like it and its not too far fetched. I have the next chapter written, I just need some reviews before I post it, so I know if anything needs to be changed. I know that its is not likely that she would go to school with a prince, but just pretend that they live in a small, friendly country. Thanks for reading and please review! (
