Chapter 5

After Lexi had gotten to know the prince, Katrina was talking to Lexi during a ball thrown in the honor of Lexis arrival.

Katrina: Dear Princess Alexandria, have you fallen in love my brother?

Lexi: Please, call me Lexi.

Katrina: Alright, Lexi, tell me, do you plan on marring my brother?

Lexi: No. I mean, not at the moment.

Katrina: Oh? And why not? Do his looks not please?

Lexi: No, it's not that. His looks please me greatly. It's just that I've met seven others. I can't decide yet.

Katrina: Well, I must say this, you cannot do better.

Lexi: Why is that?

Katrina: I must say it. He's my brother.

Lexi and Katrina laughed. Then Prince Darien walked up.

Prince Darien: Alexandria, would you honor me in this dance.

Lexi: Of course, your highness.

Lexi took his hand and walked with him to the dance floor and started to dance.

Darien: So, Alexandria,

Lexi interrupted.

Lexi: Please call me Lexi.

Darien: Don't interrupt me.

Lexi: Sorry.

Darien: Good. So Alexandria, tell me, what do think me of my kingdom?

Lexi looked around.

Lexi: It's lovely, I guess.

Darien: You guess. What could possibly be wrong?

Lexi kept thinking of the boy bunny she saw from her balcony. She wanted to say that he wasn't there. But held it back.

Lexi: Nothing. It's wonderful.
