Sofia2017 planning asked about this Miley Cyrus song, so enjoy your request! I thought it would be fun if, in a deleted scene from chapter 1 of my story Royal Blood, how Zoe and Sandra (and Ambre) learned about Ezekiel's punishment after his attack on the Secret Singer. When they meet up with the cat, the girls can sing this with him as they tell him everything they learned, since cats love to sing! Miley Cyrus' music is not mine.
When the royal family of Orillia came back to their castle after the singing contest, King Robert and Queen Patricia asked their daughters to leave the room so they could speak with Prince Ezekiel. However, in his sister Princess Sandra's mind, that meant only one thing: listening in!
She drew her younger sister Zoe to her side, and made a quick joke to Nigel, the castle steward, who was accusing them of eavesdropping.
Nigel smirked at Sandra's wordplay. However, he frowned when he saw Zoe at her side. "And now you're teaching your sister your bad habits?"
"Nigel, as much as I want to hear you talking about setting a good example for Zoe, which I try to do anyway, I want to know what's going on," Sandra said as she and Zoe listened in on King Robert and Queen Patricia's conversation with their brother.
"Ezekiel, enlighten us…what is Royal Prep's motto?" King Robert asked.
"Rule over others as you'd have them rule over you," Ezekiel recited.
"And do you think what you and Princess Deidre did tonight reflects that?" Queen Patricia asked.
"No, but Axel was going to be in on this too…or he was supposed to be," Ezekiel muttered. "Dee and I caught Sandra instead, and we told her everything…little snitch!"
"And darn proud of it," Sandra whispered from where she was listening. She signaled Zoe to be quiet when she heard Zoe almost started laughing.
"Ezekiel, don't blame your sister for this," Patricia said to him, "She did the right thing in alerting the headmistresses, who saw what the two of you did. You and Princess Deidre deserve everything you got."
When Zoe and Sandra heard their parents say that Ezekiel's title was going to be suspended following his suspension and detention, and as they heard footsteps approaching the door, the girls ran up the stairs to Zoe's bedroom.
After they told Sandra's cat Ambre about everything that had gone on, he sighed. "I wish I could have seen it!"
"Don't worry, buddy; you didn't miss much," Sandra assured him. "And Zoe, I want you to promise me that in the future, you won't listen in on people unless it's absolutely necessary. Nigel's right; eavesdropping isn't nice, even if you learn interesting things."
"I promise," Zoe vowed, "But it was kind of fun being a spy!"
"Oh yeah, we were like two flies on the wall!" Sandra smirked as she began to sing one of her and the Royal Sorceress' favorite songs.
Sandra: You don't understand what it is
That makes me tick
But you wish you did
You always second guess, wonder if I say yes
but you just lose out every time
If you only knew what I talked about
When I'm with my friends just hangin' out
Then you'd have the inside scoop
On what to say, what to do
That way when you play the game
Baby you could never lose
Zoe grinned as she sang with her, Don't you wish that you could be a fly on the wall
A creepy little sneaky little fly on the wall
All my precious secrets, yeah
You'd know them all
Don't you wish that you could be a fly on the wall
After she was in her nightgown, Zoe took the next verse, You'd love to know, the things I do
When I'm with my friends, and not with you
You're always second guess, wonder if
There's other guys I'm flirting with
You should know by now
If you were my boyfriend, I'd be true to you
If I make a promise, I'm comin' thru
Don't you wish that you could
See me every second of the day
That way you would have no doubt
That baby I would never stray
As he got into the song himself, Ambre purred as he joined the girls, Don't you wish that you could be a fly on the wall
A creepy little sneaky little fly on the wall
All my precious secrets, yeah
You'd know them all
Don't you wish that you could be a fly on the wall
He took a solo, A little communication
Well that'll go a long way
You're getting misinformation
Too much hearsay, hearsay
Sandra petted him as she joined in, And what I say is
come a little closer
And what I'm gonna say is
Don't you
Zoe joined in, Don't you
Ambre joined in, Don't you
Don't you wish you were a...
Hey!
They finished the song together, Don't you wish that you could be a fly on the wall
A creepy little sneaky little fly on the wall
All my precious secrets, yeah
You'd know them all
Don't you wish that you could be a fly on the wall
"So what happens now?" Zoe asked when the song was done.
"Even though Zeke's title's going to be suspended and he's going to work around here for the next few months, you and I are going to help him," Sandra replied.
"You're both good girls," Ambre purred as they stroked him.
