AN. Ahh!! I'm so sorry!!! I started this at like¡K August 28th, but I forgot where I saved it, and didn't get the chance to update until now. Freshman year of high school started, and it was pretty stressful and so much stuff was going on with the clubs, tests, review of math stuff (groan), and more.. Gosh, it was horrible, but good thing is, there is a second chapter right after this one! Yay!! Don't you love me? Oh yeah, by the way, thank you SO much for all the reviews you lovely people gave me! I love you guys so much! MWAH!
I groaned as I rolled over, trying to avoid the evil, evil sunlight streaming merrily right into my poor eyes. Humph. The evil sun is probably trying to blind me. I winced as I moved. The damn mining dwarves were back with vengeance.
DAMMIT!! Why the hell aren't my drapes closed?!
I might sound like a pampered spoiled princess just now, but I reserve that right to be a bitch when I wake up with a hangover with the damn sun in my eyes!
Suddenly sniffing miserably, I clutched my blankets to my chest and wished I still had my doll with me.
"My Lady, are you all right?" Amanda asked with concern. I blinked up at her. I nodded absently.
Ever since I learned about my betrothal with the arrogant ass, I had been rather distant to her. We, or rather I, had a scream fest, and things are now decidedly awkward with us.
I blinked in surprise when Amanda sat down besides the bed and picked at the hem of her skirt nervously. "Lady?" she bit her lip hesitantly.
"Hmm?" I was still rubbing my temples, trying to get rid of this blasted headache.
"I'd like to.." she started haltingly. Taking a brave plunge, she continued formally, "I'd like to offer my sincerest apologies for withdrawing the information about your betrothal to Prince Edward. I realize now that I should have informed you about anything and everything I had known. I beg for your forgiveness." She finished tearfully.
(AN. Whew! So many big words!! Buahahahaha)
I looked at her in surprise, "Oh, Mandy," I murmured, hugging her. "Do you honestly think I have the strength to be mad at you? Hell, I'm going to marry Mr. Inflatable Head, you think I'll still going to carry the silly grudge? I actually wanted to apologize to you for some time now for screaming at you." I smiled ruefully, "It's just me and my damn pride that prevented me from talking." I then gave her a teasing smile, "Besides, I missed your funny formal speeches,"
Amanda cried out gratefully and clutched me to her tightly. I choked as she slowly cut off my air supply. "'Manda, 'Manda-" I choked out. "-can't..breathe-"
My godmother gave a startled jump and quickly released me, smiling sheepishly. Honest, I swear, she's going to kill me with one of her hugs someday.
"'Manda?" I mumbled sleepily, "I'm going to get some more sleep, all right? This bloody headache's killing me," Without further ado, I slumped back into my comfy covers and drifted off.
Then, I jerked myself awake. "One more thing," My clear blue eyes looked at Amanda imploringly, "please, for the sake of my poor little head, close the curtains!"
The last thing I saw before I drifted off to dream world was a smiling Amanda pulling the curtains closed.
AN. Heh.. It's like the last chapter and ended with Rory sleeping! I suppose its because I really, REALLY want to sleep right now. But never fear! There is a second chapter right after! -wink-!! Again.. sorry for the long wait!! (Oh, and sorry bout this super short chapter.. But good thing is, the next chapter is looong..!!)
