Chapter 44 - Got her (1/2)

”I am not jealous!” the shout of the girl filled the small room of the fan club. However, the two other girls sitting inside with some cups of tea on their hands were looking at her while shaking their heads from one side to the other. ”I am not… it… it is true, I… I am just a bit frustrated, this is nothing, you don't have to worry…”

”Are you jealous?” one of the girls asked in a calm voice. She had already asked three times.​​

”N… no, I… am not,” she walked from one side of the room to the other with her head nodding and shaking continuously. ”Yes… I am just frustrated… that handsome idiot is only a noble of some little country without brain. He is an idiot. That is why I am frustrated… not that I am jealous.”

”Are you sure?”

”It is true, Princess Anne,” the chocolate-haired girl with a bright red ribbon kneeled in front of her idol and nodded, ”yes, I am sure, I am not… jealous.”

The cheerful little girl that was happily giving cards a few hours ago was now looking down and spiritless. She was in denial, but more than anything she was realizing for the first time in many years that she was feeling something else… for that idiot. Maybe she had always felt it.

The idiot in question, of course, was the Prince Martin of Forth. He was the arranged fiancé her father chose for her from birth. Even the King of Forth had already given his consent as she was the daughter of the Prime Minister, and they had known each other from long ago. However, she had never seen the idiot Martin as something other than a childhood friend. Or so she thought…

However, only after seeing him flirting with her idol in front of her, she felt, at first, pride for her creation. The outfit she designed was perfect for the Princess, but then the stupid prince had to go further with his words and even tried to kiss her. She couldn't take it anymore and walked away even before that scene finished. The cards she carefully wrote the whole morning were for naught.

”We should go on with the mission, my princess,” Hannah stood up and walked to the closet to choose another disguise, however, her disappointed back was seen by Jollene, her best friend.

”Don't worry,” Anne said in a low voice, ”we will punish that idiot Prince.”

Jollene nodded and was grateful that she had asked for Princess Anne's help some days ago. She had written a letter and tried, by all means, to start a conversation with Moira to pass the letter to Her Highness. However, it turned out to be impossible to get a reaction from the expressionless girl, so she never knew if the letter got into the Princess's hands or not.ñ.

Just when she was giving up hope, the messenger of the Princess arrived with a small paper folded in his collar. Gandalf even gave the girl a lick on her cheek and left.

”Ready for the next step?”

Jollene nodded and walked in front of the closet. It was time for the final touch.

”Ready!”

Meanwhile, in the tower of the boy's dormitory, a strange scene was happening. Two of the strongest knights of the year were in a dreadful fight. From the moment Prince Martin returned from the infirmary, and from the moment he managed to revert the spell of the vengeful Wizard Druon, he came to the room he shared with Henry and took out his sword.

”I challenge you!” He shouted and everyone knew he was serious this time, his tone, his grey eyes thar didn't show the easy-going behavior they all knew about. ”You cheater!”

Henry was also in a not-so-good mood. Even the thunders in the sky were indicating how much of a shock he was feeling.

”Let's go,” Henry said while taking out his 'REAL' sword. The students began spreading the rumors around and after a few minutes using the 'MINI' a smart device created by Teacher Vin, the whole school was invited to the back of the boy's tower.
