DISCLAIMER: DISNEY OWNS PRINCESS DIARIES AND CHARACTERS

After some months, the two had grown closer and closer and soon Pierre had thought of her as his closest friend, his best friend and Phillipe had soon realized that Charlotte was the girl Pierre had his eye on but he also realized his brother's problem if he dared to date her.

"Pierre I need to talk to you" Phillipe pulled his brother into his suite he had been planning this for quite a while and he had just got the confidence to talk him

"Yeah," Pierre said as Phillipe closed the door

"Pierre I know you have feelings for that girl Charlotte"

"Phillipe I don't"

"Don't fight it and I know why you've been fighting your true feelings but I think you should go for it; I've seen you two together, you two seem perfect. Pierre if I found my match like you have I would go and ask her out"

"I don't have the confidence to stand up to father and mother if they'll disapprove, thanks, little brother but I don't know what to do" Pierre stood up and opened the door but before he could leave Phillipe said "At least spend as much time with her as you can"

"I'll try"

"So Charlie … you and the prince" Katherine started as they waited for both their fathers to come out the emergency meeting they had to attend to

"Kathy no … no, no Pierre and I are just friends"

"Close friends"

"yes close friends"

"Very close friends"

"Yeah very close friends" Charlotte agreed getting lost in her thoughts of him

"Very close friends that are oh so attracted to each other"

"uh-huh very… wait no, no … stop that Kathy"

"oh Charlie just face it, you're perfect for each other, why the whole school thinks so"

"WHAT!?"

"What? You don't think the whole school hasn't been watching you two since the moment you two met"

"We are not having this discussion"

"Charlie" Katherine whined

"Kathy" Charlotte growled

Their fathers walked out of the office "Ah there you girls are" Katherine's father said

"Charlotte" Pierre called out once he exited the car in the morning before school started. She looked behind and waited for Pierre to catch up

"Good Morning, Pierre" She greeted as they walked to their favourite seat, the seat they first met

"So I finally was able to clear a morning up, and I was wondering what are you doing on Sunday morning?"

"Oh, Pierre I'm honoured that you want to spend your free morning with me but I go to church on Sundays, well you could come to church with me"

"Well I better get my best suit ready for this Sunday shouldn't I?" She gave out a giggle 'That's sweet he wants to go to Church with me' she thought as she giggled.

On Sunday morning, both royal brothers were in Pierre's suite as he fixed his navy blue suit.

"So you're going to attend Church to see Charlotte?" Phillipe asked as he watched his brother get ready

"I'm also interested in hearing about Jesus, baby brother"

"And spending hours sitting next to Charlotte"

"That is a benefit isn't it? … Would you like to come, Phillipe? I'm sure she won't mind you coming"

"I… uh" he began to stutter, the Renaldi family were Christians but because of the family's appalling attendance record Phillipe had become rather shy in the church. "I don't want to ruin the moments you're going to share with Charlotte, so I think I'll stay here at the palace and spend time with Sebastian"

"Up to you"

The black car pulled up in front of the Church, Pierre got out the car and looked around for Charlotte to finally find her walking towards him dressed in a light blue dress with matching heels, also wearing her long hair down with a blue headband. She wore a small amount of makeup and accessories.

'She's gorgeous' he thought as she smiled radiantly at him also catching his look of awe.

"Hello Pierre, you look very handsome," She said but was really thinking 'no he looks attractive, dreamy, charming … perfect'

"Thank you, Charlotte you look … incredible" Pierre said longing to say so much more.

Charlotte blushed, she made sure everything she wore was perfect because she wanted to look good for him, "I do?" Charlotte asked shyly, 'all I want is his approval but I'm acting stupid by asking him if he's sure of his words' she thought, whenever she's with him her mind goes crazy and she could faint from his touch.

"You do Charlotte, you look stunning, truly stunning," He said, offering her his arm to enter the church and she accepted still blushing profusely, "Now I do believe we should go inside," he said

"Of course" She smiled brightly at him

They entered the church and sat in the pew next to Charlotte's parents, who were honoured, to say the least to sit in the same pew as the crown prince. Pierre entered the church anticipating to spend time with Charlotte but when the bishop spoke he was intrigued by his words, and Charlotte could see how he was hanging onto every word that the bishop said and couldn't help but smile at his strong interest. He spent so much time focusing and thinking at the words that when Charlotte touched his arm to leave he was a bit shaken, "It's just me Pierre, Charlotte" Charlotte said gently slightly surprised at his reaction

"Oh sorry, I didn't mean to startle you I was just rather lost in my thoughts"

"That's alright, Pierre. I was wondering if you'd like to take a short stroll through the park next to the church?"

"that would be wonderful"

They walked arm in arm through the bushy path, no one except them seemed to have walked the path they were taking. "You looked rather pensive in the church" Charlotte said after a companionable silence, "I guess I was, it's just that the bishop's words were quite intriguing and … and" He began to stutter

"Different, peculiar, distinctive" Charlotte finished, trying to help him

"Yes all them, no one's ever told me things like the bishop has"

"Is that so? Well it's been quite the pleasure seeing you take such an interest in the Lord"

"Well I think I shall try to come to church more often"

"Really?" Charlotte looked at him instantly filled with hope

"Really, and I think we should take a short stroll afterwards every time"

"I would like that, I would like that a lot"

"well then I can't wait for next Sunday"

"don't get ahead of yourself so quickly, I think we should live in the moment"

"I thoroughly agree" Pierre said lowly. He stopped in front of the river and stared into Charlotte's eyes, she blushed as she looked deeply into his eyes, Pierre cupped her face with one hand and moved closer.

"Pierre" Charlotte whispered

"Charlotte" Pierre whispered back, they moved closer and closer, their lips almost touching

"CHARLOTTE!" Charlotte's mother yelled from a distance. They reverted from each other, Pierre dropping his hand from Charlotte's face and looked behind him. Charlotte looked down at her feet, 'I know she means well but why, why, why … we were so close, yet so far' she thought

"I'm sorry Pierre, that's my mother, I have to go" Charlotte apologized

"That's okay, I should be off too. Till tomorrow Charlotte"

"Till tomorrow Pierre" Charlotte said glumly as she walked back up the path

"Oh and Charlotte" he said, Charlotte stopped in her tracks and turned her head

"Yes" she said still looking melancholy

"You look dazzling to say the least" he said, making her smile and blush

"Thank you and words can't do me justice to help describe how good-looking you are" she said softly, Pierre smiled back trying to hide his burning cheeks before she turned back and walked back up the trail.

"What!?" Katherine exclaimed, later that Sunday, they were spending time with each other horse-back riding at Katherine's family estate. "You two were so close to kissing, but then your mum called for you and ruined that romantic moment you two were sharing" Katherine practically throwing one arm in the air aimlessly. Charlotte nodded "Oh Kathy, it seemed so perfect, the scenery, the weather … him" She let out a sigh of disappointment "Then when we were almost touching mum yells my name and I had to go"

"Oh Charlie, you almost had the most romantic and fairy-tale like kiss ever, I mean the beautiful damsel and the dashing prince charming in the most perfect scene"

"Kathy, don't remind me how it could have ended. I still don't know why I told you"

"Charlie it's a good thing you have because I'm going to"

"Don't you dare tell anyone" she interrupted "I don't want the King and Queen hearing that their son, who is the crown prince almost kissed a girl who is an absolute nobody"

"Charlie you are not a nobody"

"Easy for you to say lady Junive"

"That's my mother, Charlie"

"You still get that title, it's in your bloodline"

"No, it's because my father is the CEO of the largest Genovian Pear producers, and maybe one day your father could take my father's place after retirement"

"What about you? Aren't you going to take over your father's business?"

"No I've already spoken to my parents and they've accepted that I have ambitions that lead me different way"

"Ambitions?"

"yes, ambitions, Charlie. And I believe you too should have your own ambitions, your own dreams. More than just the girl who will take her father's place" Katherine said passionately, she believed that girls had their own right and they too could have large dreams. Charlotte took her words to heart, she hadn't really thought of her future in that way and Katherine had created a light for her.
