Disclaimer: Neither of us own the movie or story of the Princess Diaries.
Summary: My friend and I want to come up with a story and this is what we came up with. Michael and Mia are now adults and are engaged to be married, but again being royalty complicates everything. What will happen when they get a bunch of surprises they hadn't expected? Will there love hold? Or will the stress break the two soul mates? Michael and Mia.
A/N: Based on the movie not the story. This takes place in the future after both Mia and Michael have finished college.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Chapter 1: Conflict in Genovia*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Michael and Lily have just arrived in Genovia From a family reunion in America. Mia on the other hand felt as though she was still suffering from Jet lag, from her plane ride back to Genovia 2 ½ weeks ago. Mia's grandmother, Clarise, had said that when they got back to Genovia. However, when they got back from a small country in Switzerland, Genovia was in chaos. There was a prince who wanted to marry Mia. However, that caused a few problems. See Mia and Michael are already engaged to get married in 3 months. Wait until Michael finds out, and they both just might get a bigger surprise than expected.
Mia: Grandma, I don't want to marry Prince Alando, I want to marry Michael. Yet at the same time I don't want Genovia to be at war. (hysterically)
Clarise: I'm well aware of that Mia. And I wouldn't make you marry someone you didn't want to. Besides, Michael is a fine young man and I have no problem with him becoming the new Prince of Genovia. (soothing) -- It's prince Alando I have a problem with, His family has wanted Genovia for centuries! (not happy)
The two continue to discuss this as they go about their royal duties throughout the house. They are so involved with this discussion, that they didn't even notice Michael and Lily enter the palace.
Servant #1: Your Royal Highness it is wonderful to have you back in the palace. (smiling)
Michael: Thank you, and please call me Michael. (smiling)
Servant #1: Yes your Highness. (walking away)
Lily: Ever get the feeling that they don't listen? (curious)
Michael: It's out of respect for their country Lil.
Lily: I know but still…
Then the two hear Mia and her grandmother discussing something rather loudly.
Mia: This is not happening! You know if dad or grandpa were still here I would just sick the king on them, but that won't work! I mean come on who do they think they are? (annoyed)
Michael smiles at the sound of his soon-to-be-wife's voice. But as the conversation continues be begins to frown.
Clarise: Mia, they are the royal family of another country, if they wish to make this ultimatum they can. (calmly)- Although I'm beginning to think we should have had your wedding earlier than this, and all the confusion could have been avoided.
Mia: I mean do they not know the meaning of engaged to married to the man that I Love!!! I don't want to marry some prince, who most likely just want to feed himself an ego trip!
Michael and Lily exchange a glance while they watch these two talk through the problem while signing papers and much more. All the sudden Mia stopped signing.
Mia: I don't believe this! How did this get in here? (angry)
Clarise: What is it? (curious)
Mia: They sent in that stupid agreement thing for me to sign! -- Joe!
Joe: Yes Mia. (walking in from another room)
Mia: Will you do me a favor and find out how this got into the country never mind the palace?
Joe: Of course.
As he walks out you can hear Joe speaking in Spanish unhappily, while looking at the paper in his hand.
Mia: Love you to Joe!! (smiling)
Lily: Good god he's turned into an over protective father in full view of others! (shocked)
Michael: Why does that surprise you? He's always been that way.
Lily doesn't answer, they both just continue to look at the two women in front of them. Mia yawn and stumbles a little.
Mia: Grandma, I know its not time for tea, but if I don't drink some caffeine soon, I won't make it to dinner. (yawning)
Clarise: I've never seen jetlag last so long. (worried)
Mia: I don't know, all I know is that I've been really tired lately.
The maid comes in with some tea for Mia. And her grandmother looks at her thoughtfully. Slowly a smile spreads across her face.
Clarise: Tell you what, why don't you go take a nap so that you'll have some sort of chance at making it to dinner. I'll take care of this while you rest. But I want you to see the doctor before dinner.
Mia: Okay. Thank you grandma. (smiling)
Mia goes on her way and Clarise finally realizes Michael and Lily are there.
Clarise: Michael, Lily it is so wonderful to see you two. It has been a very long 3 ½ weeks since any of us have seen you. (smiling and embracing each of them in a hug.)- Michael will check on Mia and make sure she is okay?
Michael: Sure. (walking in the direction Mia left)
Clarise: Thank you.- Lily would you help me with something. I would love to get your political opinion on this subject, if you don't mind. (smiling)
Lily: (happily) No problem. I would love to!
Clarise: Wonderful. (happily)
A/N: Well here is chapter one, and we're leaving you without telling you what is up with Mia!!! You can probably guess but if you can't… it adds more suspense. LOL!! Anyway, hope you liked the first chapter, please read and review!!!
