Yay I'm not dead! DUDES I am SO SSSOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYY! Seriously I am but I've been so busy and… then my hard drive crashed NOT my disk but my freakin hard drive! Anyhow I have also started editing this story as it sounds incredibly pathetic in many places so yeah. Old readers don't need to re read it however as only minor changes will be made.
YAY I have reached over 100 reviews! Whoot! Thank you guys sooooooo much!
Anyways I know most of you have forgotten how the story goes hell even I have! But never fear for a summary is here! God that sounded gay anyhow here we go-
Summary
Basically this is continued from summary from last chapter. Well they went to Hattie's ball and Aly danced with the Joshua person she liked. Cowen became jealous. King Jonathon told Aly that there was no way he was going to let Aly near Joshua. Aly became angry and stalked out of the castle. Cowen was told to find her. He got held up by Pamela but warded her off anyway. He was riding on his horse but then he bumped into a tree branch and that's where we're up to so now sit back, relax and I hope you enjoy!
Chapter Ten
High pitched laughter followed as I started massaging my forehead. I turned and saw Sabrina red in the face and clutching her stomach. I felt myself turn red in embarrassment before I got off the horse and headed over to where she was.
"You know Sabrina this is quite a pathetic hiding spot."
"Shut up Cowen, it's the only place that I know of that isn't holding me back by magic," Sabrina said looking sad.
"What do you mean?" I asked sitting beside her on the wet grass.
"Well you see Cowen for some inexplicable reason my parents seem to want to keep me from moving more than 100 metres away from them and so I have a sort of magical boundary surrounding me at all times." Sabrina said depressed.
"But what if John and Juli go away on their own or are separated from you or something?" I asked confused.
"Well they then leave a different sort of boundary, for example if I'm in the castle I can't get out of the grounds. That's why we couldn't escape that time in the forest. So in a way I have less freedom than a prisoner would have." She sighed dejectedly.
"Why would Juli and John do such a thing though?"
Sabrina just shrugged in reply, "They don't know I know about the boundary. You see its not just like normal boundaries where when you reach the line you just cant get through due to some very strong force, no with this one when I reach the end of the boundary I either forget where I was going to go to or I remember something I need to do and so I head back to where I'm supposed to be. It actually took me until I was nine to figure it out"
"That's awful," I said shaking my head, "they play with your mind! But there's something I don't get, couldn't your parents have known where you were now? Why did they make me look for you?"
"I DON'T KNOW! Now stop with the questions already I've got a headache. Hey aren't you meant to be taking me back to the ball? Gosh do I have to do everything around here?" Sabrina said raising her arms up into the air.
"hey I wasn't the one telling you to spill your heart out!" I yelled in outrage.
"Yeah well I don't need you to take me back anyway! Besides I don't even want to go back!" Sabrina stated then started to stomp away.
I let out a cry. God that girl was so damn frustrating in a refreshing sort of way… what I did NOT just think that! Yes you did! Great I'm talking to myself now! What next?
"SABRINA get back here right now! You know as well as I that there is absolutely no point in you stalking off."
Sabrina just ignored me and continued to stomp away.
God looks like I have to do everything around here! I thought forgetting for the moment that Sabrina had said the same thing only moments ago.
I stomped right behind her and when I finally reached her I decided to take things into the hands of my manliness (ppl get your head of the gutters here). I wrapped my arm around Sabrina's waist and hoisted her up onto my back like a sack.
"Let me go you insane cave man!" Sabrina screamed and started to punch my back while I bit back laughter.
"You know Sabrina there are many girls out there who would want to be in your position."
"Yeah well why don't you pick up one of them then?" she asked half heartedly.
"Because none of them are you…" I said grinning cheesily.
"God Cowen that's got to be the corniest thing you've ever said," she said shaking her head.
I just continued grinning and when I was sure she wasn't going to punch me again I lowered her and changed position so I was carrying her more appropriately a.k.a. bridal style.
By the time we reached the manor my arms were understandably aching, Sabrina was not the lightest thing in the world.
"You know Cowen you can put me down now, I'm not going to run off."
"I'm not going to take the chance." I said although my head was telling me that I just liked carrying Sabrina and feeling as if I was shielding and protecting her. I shuddered as I thought of how Sabrina would react if she could read my thoughts… lets just say I may no longer be a man.
We entered the ballroom through the back as to avoid unwanted attention but everyone turned to stare as we came in. I let go of Sabrina instantly and coughed.
"Well then your Highnesses I have brought your daughter back sa…" but the words died on my lips as my eyes rested on the person next to Juli.
"It's rude to stare Prince Cowen," the person stated before coming up to Sabrina and I.
"Well I should introduce myself; I am Samara… well technically Princess Samara… from Rohan!"
AN: YAY the plot is finally starting to form! People I once again profusely apologize for the delay but I was really busy what with school and all of that. I AM really sorry but I just couldn't find the time and stuff. I'm not sure when I'll next update because next term from first day back we have our half yearly exams and stuff. I'm actually supposed to be studying right now but being the procrastinator I am I started to write again.
I will try and finish this story though it may take some time.
