Princess Wild
Granted: I woke in an unfamiliar place. Where ever I was, I knew it was somewhere rich. The walls were stone, but warm and inviting. The floors were also stone, and the bed sheets were a soft lilac. A knock on the door interrupted my fantasizing.
"Yes?" I called, slipping out of bed and onto the floor. A young girl came in, escorted by a middle-aged woman.
"Hello, Bethany. This is your new chamber-maid, Adrianna. Ring if you need anything!" And then the woman was gone. 'Huh?' I thought, 'Rebecca is my name, so what's with Bethany?' Adrianna came up to me and started undoing my night gown. I backed up.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa! What do you think your doing?" I asked. She gave me a confused look. "
I'm just dressing you, Princess." She replied. I stood still, and she undressed me. And then it clicked. 'The genie's wish! It's working!' I thought, 'I'll just go with the flow and then I won't have to go through awkward questions' Suddenly, Adrianna taped me.
"Princess, what gown would you like to wear?" She asked, opening a wardrobe. I picked a periwinkle blue one, with long, flowing sleeves and a V-neck.
While Adrianna dressed me, I said "Please call me Beth and you would like to be called?" She looked startled for a moment.
Than she answered, "Anna, Beth, just Anna" We smiled at each other and right then we formed a special bond. Once she was done dressing me, she put my hair up in a bun, leaving a few curly strands out for "style" as she called it. She left, and I strode out of the room, exploring passages and towers, and the like. I met a few maids and servants, all of which I asked to call me Beth. I met Sam, a noble-man's son. Jackson, a cook's helper. Mary, a servant. Leah, the scullery maid.
Then I caught sight of a stair-case. I grinned. Jumping on the railing, I flew down, my gown flipping here and there. There was a teen-age boy at the end of the rail, and I called, "Watch out!"
He whirled around, and I caught sight of spiky blonde hair and a gorgeous body. He did not move out of my way, but caught me and spun me around.
"Ride stair-cases much?" He asked, setting me down. He had twinkling green eyes and wore a huge grin.
"Yeah, you?" I asked in return. He nodded, and stuffed his hands into his jeans. Wait, jeans? 'I didn't know they had those then!' I thought.
"My names Samuel, just call me Sam, Beth." He grinned at my confused look.
"Like I didn't get word you've been telling people to call you that! It's going to be pretty confusing with two Sam's around, eh?" He leaned against a pillar.
"Yeah, it will. So are you a prince or…something?" I too leaned against the wall, studying his features. I know that's a bit girly of me, but like Maria, I had a keen eye for men also. That's probably the only way we're related.
"Yeah, of Ayortha. It's pretty boring over there. I'm glad Char and Ella are more talkative. I'm just here for two years, you know the 'future ruler exchange thing'?"
I had heard tell of Queen Ella and King Char from tales that Maria told me. I guessed they were my parents. I also knew of the history in Kyrria from my school. I nodded.
"Listen, I have to go now, but I'll see you around?" Sam asked. I nodded, and he was gone.
I knew right then I had a crush on the prince. Wouldn't this just play into mum and dad's hands if they wanted me engaged?
