Daria's Love

Disclaimer: We are going to play a game called truth or lie ok? Ok.

I own Ella Enchanted- Lie that was Gail Carson Lavine

I own the Plot- Truth

I got the inspiration to write from my pet chinchilla- Lie I don't have a chinchilla! You get the point.

Chapter 7; I Love Her

"Do you want to stay or do you need to go back to the castle?" Julie asked. The Prince was still there. They had been talking, mainly about Daria.

"Do you mind if I stay until she wakes?" he asked curiously.

"If you wish, His Majesty may do whatever he wishes. Except you may not stay in her room. We have a small guest room of no extravagance.

"I understand. I wouldn't want to scare her. Or were you talking of my love for her and me being ready before her to sleep together?"

"I meant both. Well I guess you would like to stay?" Julie replied.

"Please. If it isn't too much trouble. Don't treat me like a prince, but a human who is madly in love with Daria. I am sorry I did what I did now. I wish I hadn't. I was just so... entranced in her beauty and spirit. When we talked at the marketplace when I ran into her, before she recognized me her eyes glowed as if they were on fire. She wasn't your ordinary little Lady, she's different. That's why I love her," he had said 'I love her' a lot that night.

"You must be tired, Your Highness. I'll show you to your room," Julie had loosened with her first impression of the Prince. At first he seemed harsh and unloving, but now he seemed just the opposite. Julie thought that he was right for Daria after she had had some time to get over Jack.

"Jerrold. Please call me Jerrold. Have you raised Daria her whole life?" he asked curiously.

"Yes. She doesn't even know this but I trust you, not that I don't trust Daria. It's just not the right time. I'm a fairy. When I saw the house catch fire I ran in and retrieved Daria, only a little baby then. I've never told her how I came to be her guardian, but I suppose that should be told to her in the morning," she said with a sigh. "Do you still want to marry her? I think it would work between the two of you. If you don't threaten her and if you give her a choice."

"I do want to marry her, but I now want her to be happy, but I've gone and killed her source of happiness. I hate myself now. I don't deserve her. If she wants to marry me, which I doubt not now at least, I would. If she doesn't I will leave her alone and try to find someone else to love. No one will replace her. She was everything- beautiful, smart, witty, compassionate, everything. The only thing she didn't have was love for me."

"We will talk in the morning. Do you want to be up at a certain time?" Julie asked she understood how he felt about Daria. She was everything. She had proved that to the Prince. Even her wittiness, she had slapped him.

"Um, before you think Daria will be up. If it's not too muck trouble," he didn't want to be a pest, but he wanted to be presentable when Daria woke up.

"None at all I'm always up before Daria," Julie replied.

XXXXXXXX

That night the Prince didn't sleep well he tossed and turned in his sleep remembering what he had done to the two women. Especially Julie, he had threatened to kill her, and she still was kind and generous. And then there was Daria, whom he tried to force to marry him. How could he have. It was cruel and he supposedly loved her. He had also killed the one she had loved so that he would get her. It didn't even work out that way!!! He hated himself! At least he had kept Daria from killing herself. Julie looked truly relieved when Daria fell asleep.
