AN: okay so I wish I were on a holiday but no Pokimon I'm not. No Pierre and Charlotte are not getting together, I to think it has been done so many times but there is still plenty to happen to her. I have these nights were I can't sleep so I write stories or come up with new plot lines. Sometimes they workout sometimes I ask myself what the h was I on? But I'm at work right now and it is my lunch break. I pretty much type whenever I have free time. It's so nice to have laptop (I convinced my parents I need one for college he he he) and right now I do. He he he he. Okay but really I have to wait until the 15th till I break free of this horrible job! Yahoo. I'm still packing up my room to make my final move to Virginia, and then I will really have free time, to write. But I hope you all like this new chapter, thanks for being faithful readers ; 0 )

Also my next installment is going to move us through time quickly there will be some flash backs and so forth I will make things clear as possible but my story needs to move forward in time a bit or the story would get a bit dull so I hope you like.

'Dear Diary, 02-21-04

Okay so Mia's found you well several older versions of you. I must be so much more careful as to where I leave you guys. I thought the vaults were safe. But I guess not. Well anyhow it is now February already, wow how time flies by anymore. Joseph finally found out who the culprit was for the letters Pierre was getting two guesses who it was or should I say they were. Yes your first guess would be the Viscount and the second should be the Von Troken's niece Elsie Kentworthy.

Honestly what do the two get out of working together? Only our aggravation well and Joseph punched well I should say tackled the Viscount they were acting like two boys in a wrestling match finally Nick and Pierre pulled them apart. You are probably wondering why we were even close to the Viscount, I know I know but it was a public event not at the palace it was the grand opening of the new children's museum and I think he went just to try and tick me off. Well it worked and he got it from my husband.

Well moving on Mia got home from her honeymoon they went to the Virgin Islands. She and Nick are doing so great together. And Lily is preparing to completely take over Charlotte's position. Charlotte is so happy she and Shades can finally start a family now. I think they have been married for six years now. Also she is going to work for me again. Now I know I'm not the Queen bee anymore but I still have a lot of public and diplomatic things to do which require I have a part time assistant. To keep myself from going insane. She and Shades are of on their anniversary vacation right now so I'm left with the planning myself, which can be a bit of a mess especially since I have to help Lily right now.

Joseph and I are thinking of taking an extended vacation he says he would like to tour Europe I told him I would like to go somewhere exotic. But I think it may be a bit of both in the end. Well it is coming up on one year this spring. Wow I can't believe I have been married to the man of my dreams for almost a year now. And nothing has changed! We still are madly in love with each other in public and in our room!"

Clarisse closed her diary and slid it under the edge of the bed and got out of bed and headed for her bathroom. But just then Lily came running in.

"Your majesty sorry to bother you."

"Lily please call me Clarisse? What can I do for you?"

"Uh well I think Mia is pregnant!" She blurted out

"What? What make you say something like that?"

"Okay well this morning I got a call and it said that your assistant could come in and pick up the pre-natal vitamins need for the mother to be."

"Why did she not tell me?"

"I don't know maybe she is waiting to tell us all at once."

"Maybe well let's not say anything yet. We'll see if she tells us at breakfast. Charlotte is supposed to be back today from her vacation. I think she said she should be here but noon."

"Okay but I can't hold in the excitement. Mia could be pregnant."

"I know I know I can't wait for more grandkids. Okay but Shhh."

"Yes ma'am"

"See you at breakfast Lily."

Clarisse smiled and headed into her bathroom and got she ready for the day humming to herself a little excited at the thought Mia could be pregnant. She slipped on a white pair of pants and a light sweater and headed off for breakfast.

Entering the dining room Mia was already seated next to Nick the two deep in conversation about something that stopped when she sat down next to them. She just smiled very big at the two of them. Lily came in with her planner ready to go over the morning schedule with the three of them. When Charlotte came in looking a bit under the weather, well actually make that really under the weather. She sat down next to Clarisse looking a bit pale.

Clarisse took in her countanance and then looked at Mia and thought about it 'Oh my gosh its…"

"Charlotte you're pregnant!" She said. Several people at the table dropped their silver wear.

"I thought it was Mia" Lily said

"What, you thought I was pregnant?"

"Yeah."

"Hold it hold it. Charlotte you're the one who's pregnant here aren't you?"

"Yes." She said smiling.

'Oh congratulations dear." Clarisse said pulling her into a hug.

"Yes congratulations Charlotte." Mia said.

"Well dear how far along are you?" Clarisse asked

"Eight an a half weeks"

"Two months. Dear why did you not tell me sooner?"

"Well I was nervous you would let me go."

"No never Charlotte you are my close friend and like the daughter I never had. I want to help with your baby."

"We all do." Mia said, "I will need to practice for the future."

"Mia are you pregnant?" Clarisse asked suspiciously

"No, you would definitely know if I was."

"Okay. Charlotte we have so much to plan for dear, this is so exciting."

"Yeah it is"

"Are you all right dear, has the morning sickness not passed yet? Come to think of it why did I not notice before?"

"Uh well I spent my mornings keeping you busy and when I did not feel good I made sure I was not to close to you."

"Charlotte dear if you need time to yourself I can manage without you for a few days."

"You already have and besides I promise I'm feeling much better now, that we had a few days to our selves."

"Is shades so excited?"

"Yes he can't wait, he wants a little girl so bad."

"Oh now isn't that sweet." Joe said coming in and sitting down next to Clarisse " just told the rest of the security staff that the two of you were expecting."

"He did?"

"Sure thing."

"Hey Joe I have a feeling this conversation is going to turn into a all girl talk do you care to help me with a few things?"

"Yes Nick, Clarisse I will see you later for lunch dear."

"Okay, Joseph I love you have a good day."

"Awe how sweet Grandma."

"Yes well Charlotte what are you doing to prepare? I mean have you thought things you will need?"

"Yes I have done a little bit but not a lot. I don't know what I am going to do about where we live I mean we share a room here but we are going to have a family."

"Well dear we do have several suites you know you could have one."

"Oh but it wouldn't be proper. I mean I'm not royal or…"

"Charlotte you will take one it will be and apartment so to say."

"yes and we can help with the baby. Oh so much fun."

"All right I will talk to Frank about it."

"Good. Well with that done. We do need to get a few things done today. First Mia attack that pile of paper work. Second I know we have lunch with the Prime Minister of France to discuss new trade agreements."

"Yes we do and Grandma you will be helping me with that one wont you?"

"Yes Mia I know we still need to work on your French."

"Yeah yeah I know all right if anyone needs me I will be in my office under a mountain of paper work."

'Dear Diary, 02-21-04 later in the day

Oh I found out some amazing news today. Charlotte is pregnant! I'm so excited its like she is going to have one of my grandkids. Okay so I know that I should not think of it that way but I really do love the girl like my own daughter, she always been so good to me. Ok well this is short I know but Joseph keeps asking me to come to bed. Ohh I love that man.'

Clarisse sat in her room going through her diaries it had been something she had been wanting to do for quite sometime and with little to do she decided today was the day. She sat on the large couch with her feet propped up and fresh tea she sat reading a few pages at a time going back over the past two years.

"Oh I can't believe it has been two years. Wow!"

Dear Diary, 05-17-04

Today Mia and I spent our morning in Parliament, well Mia was the one working I was merely observing, I'm so proud of her. Well honestly I wouldn't be here if Charlotte wasn't at the doctors. She is getting so big. She is of course due in September she will be taking 2 months off and Lily will work double time between Mia and I…."

She continued to flip through the pages, reading a bit from each page that caught her eye.

Dear Diary, 08-28-04

Mia is so amazing! Honestly I knew the girl is capable of everything but never in my wildest dreams did I think she would pull this one off. Okay so today she meet with parliament and it happened to be one of the days where Joseph was helping Shades with security and so I was alone and decided to step in and watch Mia with parliament, you know even though they have proven themselves to have human emotion and that they can be kind. I still don't trust them. Really I don't! Well anyhow I was sitting in when the topic of the wretched man came up and Mia was invited to say something.

"I have a proposal. I believe in the best interest for this parliament and the royal family that the man be requested to leave. I feel it necessary and almost imminent, He has prove time and again that he cannot be trusted by this governed body, and I feel it would be wise to ask that he leave Genovia, if he does not I will have no part in throwing him out but, I can assure you that no further action by this man will be tolerated the consequence's for his actions will be imprisonment."

"Your majesty I agree with the motion anyone to second the motion?"

"I" Nicholas stood up and second the motion even for his own Uncle.

'Wow she never ceases to amaze me! Really and Nicholas was very much supportive of her, well he is the man's nephew but Nicholas too has had a rough time with the idiot. Well think about it, he almost never married Mia because if him. Well enough said I'm glad to hear that the Viscount stepped down graciously. I just hope that wasn't for show, and he really is going to bow out graciously. What am I talking about that man bow out graciously I must be joking! Well regardless he would face a life in prison if he did try anything again. Hmm new country where I could live nice, or be and ass and go to prison?' Well Diary once again it is late till next time.

Clarisse close the last diary she had brought up from the vault. She had figured that it was a waste to try and move them all since Mia had already read them there was really no point any way. No big secrets where hidden in them, well maybe one the fact that she had said she was attracted to Joseph years and years ago. But now he was her husband and nothing more was needed.

She tossed the diary back onto the table, she hadn't noticed it before when she was flipping through the pages but there was an extra page in the book one that had come loose. And was now hanging out of the book. She picked it back up again and opened up to the diary page.

'Dear Diary, 06-29-04 Happy Anniversary!

Today is the two-year anniversary! My how time fly's when your so in love. To me is had been different though I doesn't feel like two years, to me is feels like we have been this way forever. Joseph gave me this beautiful card with a single red rose he left it on my pillow while I was in the shower this morning on the card he wrote

'Love is pure, and kind, it is not boastful, is does not hate, it is not jealous or find fault. Clarisse my love for you is endless, a forever flowing well. You make my life complete in every way. I could not imagine being anywhere but here with you. Know that I always will love you and always have. You are my light and life. Happy anniversary my beautiful wife.

All my love Joseph xoxoxo

I love this man. So much. How I love him oh I do.

Clarisse sat the Diary back down and whipped a tear from her eye. Then got up and headed for Mia's office

"Knock knock, Mia may I come in?"

"Yes Grandma you don't' even have to knock, well at least not at this door!"

"How is your day going Mia?"

"Wonderful how about yours?"

"The same, I have been going through my diaries, I was reading about Charlotte and my last anniversary."

"You know you never moved them. I remember you threatening me for reading them, and yet you didn't move them."

"Well what was the point you had already read them?"

They laughed for a moment. Then Clarisse got a more serious look on her face.

"Mia with Charlotte taking the next two months off to be with her baby, I think Joseph and I will also take some time off, we have been meaning to but so far haven't' found the time."

"Or wouldn't the two of you still work like crazy."

"I know I know, but I think I need to explain this to you Charlotte will be off work for the next two months and I wont be doing much so I think Joseph and I are going to spend some time abroad for the next two months. Which means I wont be here."

"All right that sounds wonderful."

"Your not worried? I mean I will be a call away if you need me."

"Grandma, I think it is you who is having a hard time letting go of me, you have said it a millions times say it again for your self."

" I have ever assurance that you will be a great queen. You are amazing Mia I love you so much." Clarisse face brightened

"Grandma I tell myself that every morning, that you believe in me and that I have learned and been guided by the best and that with your support I know that no matter how hard things can get I know someone still believes in me."

"Oh I love you Mia!"

"I Love you too."

"Well I'm going to go find my husband and tell him we are leaving on the vacation he has been practically begging me for." Clarisse got up and left the office in search for Joe.

AN: well I hope you liked this chapter. I had to come up with some way to get the time moving along and not rush into too much. So I did a flash back-diary thing.
