~At school~

Right know you are sitting in a class room full of students. Most may think they know you, but they would never guess that you're the princess. Mostly because your personality was a bit off. 'You have a very colorful personality' others would say, but that didn't stop people from liking you.

You sit quietly, thoughts flying through your head. One main thought though gets you aggravated. The ceremony. 'No way, no way, no way am I going to that ceremony! If I do. . .' Your (eye color) eyes scan the room worry and angry mixing together. 'Everyone will find out that I'm the princess!'

The thing about you is that you hated being different from everyone else. You liked the thought of going to school with everyone. Your father didn't like the idea, but love and puppy dog eyes can get you a lot of things. So for your whole life, so far, you have been going to school incognito.

You refused to be taught by a tutor and stay at home all alone. What fun is that!? No one to talk to or argue with such as friends. You want to enjoy your youth! You want friends to have around through thick and thin.

So far you have managed to attend elementary and junior high. You want to continue attending public school until you graduate from high school.

You look up from your desk over at the front of the class room where Gilbert stands teaching the class about his 'awesomeness'. From the corner of my eye you can see Ludwig watching you carefully. They were both never originally supposed to be here, but in order for them to fulfill their duty; Gilbert had to become a school teacher and Ludwig dropped a grade to be in the same class as you.

"(Name)?" Threw all your thinking you hear a voice call you from your left. You look over see Lilli staring at you with a kind smile. She has glimmering turquoise eyes the resemble that of beautiful gems. Her blonde short straight hair had one purple ribbon on the right side.

"Hmm, Lilli?"

"Are you going on Sunday?" Lilli leans over on her desk towards you. You, completely forgetting about the whole celebration, stare clueless.

". . . Is there something on Sunday?" You ask.

"Of course there is! Sunday is Princess (Name)'s birthday celebration!" After Lilli said that you almost hit your head on the desk. How could you have really forgotten about that? Then she continues on with what she was saying.

"I'm head of the Flower Tribe, you know. So I'll be dancing at the ceremony." Lilli's smile brightens greatly. "I've got good seats reserved, so come and watch. Okay?" Once she finishes I give a sad smile.

"I really can't go. I'm sorry." You apologies to her.

"What? But it will be our first chance to see the princess!" Lilli glares at you. She really wants you to go to the ceremony doesn't she? The bad thing about it is, if you do show up at the ceremony then it'll be as the princess, not a normal student.

You give her an apologetic look, opening your mouth to say something. Before you get the chance though some kid behind you says something.

"Hey, you're taking about the princess, right?" Lilli and you turn around to see a boy leaning back in his seat, feet on top of the desk. He has short brown hair and honey brown eyes. In his hair is a curl sticking out from the right side.

"Yeah we are."

"I heard some rumors about the princess. It's said she never appears before people because she's really ugly." Your eye twitches at the rude comment. How could people start rumors when they don't even know the anything about you. The Italian signs as some kids join in on the conversation.

"I heard about that rumor too, but it's still rude to say such things, Lovi~." A man with messy brown hair and grassy green eyes says as he walks over to Lovino.

"SHUT YOUR RUDE MOUTH!" You shout at Lovino. This surprised him since you usually sat quietly in class. The green eyed man from before pats your shoulder to calm you down.

"No need to take it personally, chica. I know you have the same name as the princess, but Lovino was talking about her, not you." The Spaniard clears up. You sign heavily shifting in your seat. 'Right they don't know. Keep calm (Name), keep calm.'

The students in the room start to talk about rumors they heard. 'They say she's really fat because she never leaves the castle. She's so fat she can't even get down the stairs.' 'Well, dude, I heard she has anorexia and is too skinny.' 'Really? Maybe she's actually dead. They're just trying to cover it up.' Are some of the ones your able to hear throughout the room.

You try to keep a straight face, but it's hard with all the hurtful things being aimed at you.

Lilli smiles happily humming slightly, "Those are just rumors." The comments pause and all eyes are on Lilli now. "The maids at the castle say the princess is lively, cheerful, and very cute." Her comment made you blush.

"One rumor is true though, however." Another girl in the room says. The class looks over at a girl who is playing with a frying pan, leafy green eyes watching it turn. "Her bodyguards are two princes from the dragon tribe, which was supposed to have been completely whipped out. . . Since birth, they practiced their battle skills day and night preparing themselves for protecting the princess. They never leave her side." You look over at Gilbert, who is trying his best not to say anything that might give himself away.

Two girls on the other side of the room are fangirling at the story. "It would be so cool to hang out with them, KYAAH!"

"Well, damn-it. If she's so lively then why hasn't she shown herself?" Lovino growls.

"Lovi does have a point." Antonio says emerald eyes looking over the room.

"The royal family lives off the taxes we pay! I would like to see them do their damn job!" Gilbert and Ludwig see the pained look on your face. Lovino could be real heartless at times and now just happened to be one of them.

"Alright, Zhat's enough talking. Lovino do zhe next problem." Gilbert calls on the nasty Italian, white chock in hand.

"Why me, Bastard!?" With that one yell everyone is focused on class once again.
