chapter 2: Just Give Me A Chance

As Rogue walked off she heard someone yell in the direction the prince was. She knew it was him. She refused to turn around.

" Excuse me!" he yelled trying to get her attention. but she didn't respond so he ran faster until he caught up to where she was.

" Excuse me miss. What's your name?" she didn't respond

" Can you come home with me?" he said jokingly, but then stopped right in front of her with a charming smile that made all the girls he knew melt." and possibly can I take you out to night?"( I bet you don't know where I got that from . lol) she just looked at him with a daze and then she spoke "I am far too busy for dates. I have chores. and…" "what if I came to you afterward "He interrupted

" That's impossible." she said looking at him like he didn't know what chores were.

" why is it impossible?" he asked. This was when she got annoyed.

" because prince playboy ,unless you come to my room at night, which you probably already do with other girls, there is no way I wouldn't be too busy to go out with you. I will not." She said and added a cockiness

" Now if you would excuse me I have to get to those CHORES I was telling you about. Now good day Prince Robert" she said .

" Please call me Bobby or Prince Bobby if you wish." he said as he let her pass.

As she was walking by he repeated his earlier question , but this time with something new.

" by the way, WHAT is your name ? In our next meeting I would like to greet you accordingly and maybe have it in the sentence." he said trying not to sound pushy.

" my name ? "she asked spinning around..

" Yes" he said as he approached her quickly but cautious not to freak her out like the last incident a few moments ago.( at the end of chapter one.)

When he was in front of her he asked again in a smooth voice.

" What is your name?" she looked into his eyes and saw a totally different person , he wasn't the creep she thought he was but he was a kind person , but still very pushy. " My name is Marie Tipton but you can call me Rogue." with that she rushed off to make sure Bobby couldn't ask or say anything to stop her escape. All Bobby could do was stand there with a grin on his face , then he thought ' I have to get to know that girl , who knows maybe she'll come to my birthday party . I mean I am only turning 19 once , might as well make it a good year with the right person. I think she may be the one. Well I'm gonna find out where she lives and then it's time for round 2.' with that last though he was off.

Later in Rogue's room:

" Ahhhhh! He asked you out! Are you mad why didn't you accept. Just think you and a royal getting it on after a walk in the moonlit forest. Isn't it romantic. That could have been you!" Lily screamed with joy as she jumped from a chair by the window and walked to the bed her friend was sitting on and sat next to her. Rogue fell back onto the bed in frustration .

" Lily are you mad don't you remember the curse . I mean sure he is incredibly cute but I'm sure he would want to be intimate and I just cant do that for him and you know I cant do that for him. so why should I even try." she said as she got up and sat in the chair lily was just in and stared out of the window for a few moments 'I know they tried making the fairy's curse better but they only made it worse. I mean at first I would only zap them when I touched them . Now I take life forces and eventually ,if I stay in contact. I will kill them. I couldn't dare put such a person as him through that. He deserves better.' as she said that a tear started to form in the corner of her green eye. but she wiped it away before it could show. ' Ever since I saw him he caught my eye. He was planning this all along . He probably just wants me for my looks. Well I wont be like all the other girls he's probably been with . I wont give in to his charming.' then she spoke as she looked at her best friend , who at this moment was wondering what was so interesting out side.

" Is there something outside that has caught your eye or were you imagining you and your future husband again." Lily said as she gave a look that told Rogue she knew about her crush.

" I do not like him! Even if I did he wouldn't just come to my window at night trying to get me to say yes to a date.. I mean get real Lily. We were just not meant to be." Rogue said as she walked over to her bed. Before she could sit down they hear a slight tap on the window. By what Rogue just said she knew who it was .

" Speak of the playboys." she said as she stepped away from the bed. Lily ran up and opened. To her expression you can tell who it was." Oh my gosh , Marie Tipton get your behind over to this window and say hi to your guest"

" no !" said Rogue while turning to go out of the room.

" oh no you don't! get back here! " said Lily as she caught Rogue's sleeve and dragged her to the chair by the window.

" At least sit here while I see what he wants." Begged Lily as she let go and walked back to the window.

" fine but I am not talking to him!" Said Rogue as she sat in the chair and turned her head from the window.

" Hey excuse me!" whispered Bobby quite loudly.

" What a pleasant surprise. How can I help you Prince Bobby?" Said Lily in a sweet voice trying to act innocent.

" I was hoping to speak to lady Marie. Is she home?" asked bobby with a white rose in his hand along with a invitation.

" I do not think she wishes to speak with you."

" why not?" asked Bobby

" He wants to know why" Lily said trying to whisper so he wouldn't hear but he did ( it wasn't very hard because lily isn't a good whisperer)

"I don't know .er...tell him I'm asleep" she did the same back ( neither were well at whispering)

" Kind sir ,she lays resting" Lily said quickly so he wouldn't be suspicious9 if your wondering why they're talking that way it is because in this world they must greet someone , or ask to see someone this way. It shows they are gentlemen or young women . Their people say they learned it from the elves so they call it the second elven talk: the first s a totally different language)

" how is she to rest if her eyes are not close? How is she to lay if she sits next to thy kind lady" he said back ' that has to get her angry enough to say something back to me herself.'he thought devilishly. ' I've known er enogh to know how to annoy her'

" The lady rests . I am…" but Lily was cut offby him. " Tell the lady when she awakens from her false slumber that if she will allow me just one chance, to meet me out here for a stroll in a total of five minutes" he said as he walked away from the window.

" Go! now he waits for you out in the front" she said still in the elven way of speaking.

" Lily the royal is gone you can stop now." She said giggling at her friend who was now pulling out a gown for her to wear. It was gorgeous with perfect fit . it was slim but loose and trailed to the floor. it was a simple silk gown that showed the shoulders and the sleeves draped over her hands ( think of long sleeves from a kimono except skinnier and they start from a few inches under her collar bone.)and a lace trim at the rim. and to top it off her hair was draped over her shoulders. and to top the dress off she added a cape.

" now put this on and go meet him" she said as she rushed her into the dress and out the door.

" fine but I'm only doing this because you made me, and I'm not staying out all…." but Rogue was cut off by lily who said "sure" quickly and closed the door right behind Rogue as she walked out the door.

' now where is this prince playboy? I don't even know what I'm doing here 'Rogue thought to her self which only led to a mental battle between her and her conscious. .

'I don't even have the slightest crush and I know we cant be together so why am I here?' she thought to her conscious

' you're here because your curious'

' I am not'

'you are to'

' I'm not. I know what would happen if we got close. and seeing how he's a play boy…..'but she was dragged from her endless battle of the same reason by the voice of Bobby brought who brought her back to reality.

he held out a hand ,as if he were leading her to a dance floor, and he led her to a white stone path and then let go. They began to walk. After about 5 minutes of silence Bobby decided to break it.

" so…….have you ever been here before?" he asked but there was no answer .

" would you like to see something amazing?" Rogue asked back.

All Bobby did was nod. And off they went to her amazing thing which wasn't far because this was the path that she usually took to it.
