A/N: Well, I said that I would update more in the holidays when I had time but I forgot to mention that I had an assignment to do, an essay to write, a Pop up picture book to make (I must admit it took me ages to just make a pop up!) and bits and pieces of homework here and there! But I tried to add time to write my fan fics as well so sorry about that!

Chapter 5: Kimberly's Plan

Kimberley paced around her bedroom thinking of a plot to diminish Drew's feelings for May. "Arrggghh!!" screamed Kimberley as she threw yet another scrunched up ball of paper into the bin that was already over flowing. Kimberley sat down at her desk, biting her nails agitatedly. Kimberley dipped her quill into the ink jar but paused, thinking of what to write.

"Aha!" exclaimed Kimberly as the thought hit her. "I'll use Drew's ingenious mechanical equipment! Although what can I do to diminish his feelings for her? I know! I'll try to hook up Brendan and May! I've heard that Brendan's already in love with her, so it won't be too long before he proposes! Yes, you are so brilliant Kimberly!" said Kimberly as she quick as a flash wrote down her supposedly brilliant plan. Her quill rushed over the parchment as fast as lightning.

"Soon enough, one month shall be over and Drew will have no choice but to marry me!" said Kimberly as she stared at the piece of parchment with a gleam in her eye. Kimberly then picked up her phone and dialed Brendan's number. "Hello" came a voice across the line. "Yes, sorry to interrupt but may I ask, is Brendan here?" said Kimberly using her most polite voice that dripped with sweetness.

"Stop the act Kimberly I'm here" said Brendan sniggering. "Aw, I used my best voice for nothing!" said Kimberly in a whole new different tone of voice. Much more intimidating and arrogant. "Anyways, I'll get straight to the point… accompany me to Drew's place this weekend!" said Kimberly. It was more of an order than a request. "Why?" said Brendan as his eyes narrowed.

Brendan and Kimberly were next-door neighbors from each other and had been childhood friends since forever. Brendan knew her better than anyone else did. He knew that Kimberly never asked anybody for anything unless something was in it for her or she wanted something. "Never mind that, just come!" snapped Kimberly. "Fine, fine geez! I'm quite delighted to come since May is there," said Brendan. "Good, come over my place at 9:00am sharp and we'll both go to Drew's" said Kimberly and with that she hung up. "Excellent, everything is going to plan" said Kimberly as she began laughing evilly. It was fascinating how a person's face could change from good to bad in a mere second.

Kimberly woke up the next day quite cheerful which was completely unexpected coming from a person like her. She quickly dressed and went down stars for breakfast after doing her morning routine. As per usual she complained about the food stating that it was not fit for human consumption (A/N: We all know where she got that quote from xD) Kimberly decided that she would go into the back garden for some relaxation. She then began reminiscing about her childhood.

Kimberly was the princess and future ruler of the Sapphire Emerald Kingdom. It was unknown why their castle was situated right next to the border. The border was how far of land that the Sapphire Emerald Kingdom owned/concurred. If you took one-step across the border from where Kimberly's castle was, then you would no longer be in the Sapphire Emerald territory but in the Ruby Snow kingdom.

Kimberly's first ever best friend was Brendan as he was the only child around in the area. They soon grew very close and fond of each other over a short period of time. Although their relationship was always platonic and they never actually developed romantic feelings for each other. Kimberly smiled a genuine smile as she remembered the day she met Brendan.

"Smile more Kimberly, it brings out your true, beautiful side" said Brendan. Kimberly quickly got out of her trance as she fell off the chair in shock. Brendan began laughing his head off while Kimberly pouted. "How many times have I told you not to scare me like that!" said Kimberly as she pulled herself up and seated herself on the bench once again whilst punching Brendan playfully in the arm.

"How did you get over here anyways?" asked Kimberly curiously. "I climbed the fence," said Brendan bored. "Why must you always act like a spoiled brat around others? I mean, you really do have a genuine and caring side" Asked Brendan as he faced her. "I don't know…. I like it better when I'm in command and superior showing my weak side won't do me any good.." said Kimberly simply as she watched the clouds float by against that never ending curtain of baby blue sky. "Oh brother another one of her memories" said Brendan slapping his forehead.

FLASHBACK

"Kimberly darling, come down stairs and meet the Rose Petal Kingdom Prince, Prince Drew" called Kimberly's mother, Dianna. Kimberly had inherited pretty much every aspect of her mother, expect for her mother's onyx eyes. She had inherited her father's violet ones. It was pretty much love at first sight for Kimberly. The moment she laid eyes on him she knew that her one most important goal was to capture his heart and to never let go.

Kimberly felt strange around him. She felt highly anxious, afraid of what might be the consequeces with using the wrong words. Although Drew never showed the same symptoms as her. He just talked to her in a bored manner, never once smiling. More like a robot than ever.

END FLASHBACK

Kimberly snapped out of her trance. She sighed happily. She could remember it just like yesterday. Although back then she was far too arrogant back then thinking that their will be no competition. Actually her vanity had pretty much increased but with the entrance of May, it had dropped severely. Kimberly knew within her heart that one day that May would be the one to capture his heart. Little did she know that his heart was already taken.

"Hello? Earth to Kimberly!" said Brendan waving his hand in front of her face. Kimberly snapped out of her thoughts although now she felt a strong wave of anger and frustrating knowing her "Drewy Kins" would be taking away from her from a far more "inferior" being. "Anyways Brendan I'd like to be alone for now…. Remember to come tomorrow… ok?" said Kimberly as she pushed him out the back door gate.

Before Brendan could even reply, she had slammed the gate shut. Kimberly then decided to call Drew to set up the appointment. Kimberly rushed upstairs to dial his number. It rang a few times before he picked it up. "Hello, this is the Prince Drew of the Rose Petal Kingdom, what is it that you require from me?" said Drew in a posh and formal manner. "Drewy Bear!" exclaimed Kimberly happily. Kimberly didn't hear the sigh on the other side of the phone. Kimberly then heard a girl shouting in the background. It vaguely consisted of words like "Why You, "How dare you", "You narcisstic, conceited, big headed, arrogant, not-so-good-looking jerk".

Kimberly grinned deviously knowing that their relationship was bumpy because of their constant arguing. "For the millionth time Kimberly don't call me that! Anyways, what do you want?" snapped Drew. Kimberly felt hurt by his tone of voice and choice of words. But she concealed it well. "Anyways, I'm coming over tomorrow with Brendan at 9:00 am sharp" said Kimberly in a off the chart of sweet voice.

Kimberly ignored the cursing on the other side of the phone. Before Drew could reply, Kimberly continued "Anyways, bye Drewie Kins! See you tomorrow!! Remember that'll always love you forever and ever! Mwah!" and the line went dead.

On the other side of the phone….

Drew heard the line went dead and sighed as he placed the phone down. May decided to make him jealous as a joke by sounding excited about Brendan's sudden visit. Unbeknownst to her, Drew DID like her. "Oh my gosh Brendan's coming over! I can't believe it! I was dying to see him! Oh no! I can't let him see me like this! I have to go do my hair!" squeled May running off to add an affect to the act. Drew was now over loaded with jealousy. Little did May know how much that hurt Drew and he actually did have feelings for her.
