Esther and Laura wondered why the body they were clinging on had stopped moving. They looked at each other and then raised their heads. Infront of them was a wealthy and handsome looking boy staring down at them. Wait isn't that... Prince Louis?!!! They both got to their feet immediately." Your highness!!"they curtsied frantically. Hearing nothing but silence,both girls lifted their heads slowly. They saw Prince Louis looking down at Giselle who... looked rather dumb. Laura and Esther were shocked. Had she really lost her mind?! How could she still be lying down like that in front of the perfect prince himself giving him that silly expression. Laura gently side kicked Giselle's leg with her foot. But there was no response. Laura glanced at Esther,who also gave her a glance. They nodded and then cleared their throats gently. The girl, finally snapped. But she was still in the same position but this time with a furious expression,as if she was cursing someone in her head. Does this Giselle still love her her life? If yes,then why is she making it so easy for it to be taken away? The girls panicked for their friend. What should they do? To their surprised,the prince bent down and whispered something into her hear.
Giselle POV
I really can't believe this! This jerk is back. That ignorant, arrogant, dumb little brat I knew then is back. No,no,no,no,no! It can be ! I just couldn't help but give a flabbergasted expression when I saw him. And I also couldn't help giving him a furious expression after all those memories of him rushed back to me. Wanna know why I hate this guy? Stick around and I'll tell you . As I glared at him he got down and whispered in my ear,"What? Surprised we're... Meeting again?" Huh? Wait...W-why is he so close? And what's that amazing scent? What? No!...Why would i ever admire this guy? I quickly got to my feet, glaring down at him. He also stood straight and looked at me. I rolled my eyes and bent to take my book. I then turned to leave,but saw my friends looking at me in a panicked state. What? Were they seriously scared of him? How embarrassing for me. Suddenly Esther stepped right infront of me and apologized! "Y-your highness...Prince Louis, I apologize for my friend's rude behavior. She's new in town and doesn't know much about his highness." She wonderfully lied. Huh!! I mean... what the... I raised my finger and was about to say something but Laura quickly covered my mouth and said, "Yes yes your highness...she doesn't really know how to act in front of you. We apologize,we failed to teach her. Please have mercy and spare us" Unbelievable! They were lying through their teeth to the person who even knew what was really going on. And the way they were begging him, I...Well I have to admit,I felt touched that they were trying to protect me. But I had to stop this nonsense. It was too humiliating for me, infront of this jerk.
Author POV
Louis lips curved upward. Seeing the naive girls begging and the face look of the witch being held captive by her friend was just too much. He put his hands in his pocket, putting him in a gorgeous pose. The others who were around watching ,admired the handsome boy. He was dressed in expensive suits just like a prince. His black hair was perfectly done and his face was really stunning. He had a nice physique. And all the girls swooned over him. Each one wishing to be with him. Louis saw all this in everyone's eyes except for one. Giselle's eyes were only filled with anger and disgust which surprised him a lot. ' Well this is a first,this witch is actually interesting.' He thought. "You don't have to beg for your ' friend ' actually. I'm not offended. Nothing to worry about" He said gently. This surprised Esther who was in front of him but also made her heart flutter. He was quite a gentle talker. "Thank you, prince Louis" she curtsied again and went back to her friends side flushed. Hearing his forgiveness, Laura finally let go of her deranged friend.
"Giselle, would you please come with me. We have to talk." Louis spoke again. Huh? Talk? Talk about what? In his dreams!! She cleared her throat,"Ahem... I'm sorry but I really have I to get on with...so I can spare you the time you want. Have a nice day, your highness. " She finished with a curtsey. The young prince gritted his teeth. People would think this girl was displaying her politeness to him. But he could clearly see the sarcasm. She was insulting him,no... she was humiliating him by defy an order,his order. Just then ,he saw that Giselle was turning to leave. He grabbed her wrist to prevent her from leaving. "No! You are not going anywhere! I don't care what it is that you have to do, you are coming with me! Now !" Louis glared fiercely at Giselle,and although she felt a little intimidated, she wouldn't give in to him.
"Did you not hear me? I said I have more important to do. So if you are really the gentleman they say you are wouldn't you allow me freedom. Alright your highness? " "No! You are coming with me" he furiously exclaimed. Everyone began whispering. They were quite far away from the drama,but still made their assumptions. "Do you think Prince Louis wants to punish her?" ,one asked her friend. "How would I know? But I would really like it if that **** got taught by the prince himself,I hate her..." "Yeah yeah,her and her friends. Your know,my boyfriend broke up with because of them. He said he had a crush on all three girls. Ugh! I hope her face gets disfigured!" "Dude,the prince charming looks pissed. What's gonna happen to one of our belles?" Well... I don't think that the prince would be such a brute right? But hey if he does display some brutal actions,our girls might become scared of him and come running to us. Hahaha.." "Yeah,that guy's totally has every girl drooling over him. Tsk... Don't you think so Liam... Liam?" The boy looked at the slightly blonde haired boy beside him. If his vision was proper,then Liam was shooting deaths at no other than Prince Louis. Huh... He has the guts...but wait isn't he, Giselle's crush? He had never admitted it but he also seemed to like this girl back. He would often smile a lot when they were together,stand up for her when she was being bullied , ditch his friends to help her with anything she wanted. Then it made sense why he was angry. His sweetheart was being bullied, time for him to support her. He got ready,he didn't care if he was some prince ,cause that didn't give him the rights to bully others. Liam moved forward with clenched fists. His friends wanted to stop him but didn't dare. They clearly remembered what happened last time they tried to stop him from going to his girl. 'Ouch...it still hurts what you touch it' But then he saw Giselle bite the prince's hand that was gripping her wrist. The prince hissed and let go of her. Liam stopped his tracks and looked on with astonishment along with the other students.
Laura and Esther who had the front row seat to this drama, could hear and see everything properly.They had their jaws dropped from astonishment. How could Giselle even talk to him like that? She did know who he was. She even bit him. But... Wait do they...know each other already... personally? Both girls were thinking the same thing. Giselle turned around and left as Louis who was now wearing a grimaced face looked at his hand with her bite mark. "Giselle stop!",a feminine but strong voice came from behind . Giselle eyes widen as she recognized this voice. Aunt Lana?? She turned around and saw a sophisticated wealthy looking couple coming. Huh? It's Aunt Lara and Uncle Richard! "Giselle that's no way for a princess to act towards a prince like my son!" King Richard spoke. "Exactly... be more ladylike!" Queen Lana said with a gentle smile. "Oh my... Auntie!!" Giselle quickly ran and gave her a hug. and the Queen although surprised by the sudden approach didn't dare refuse her,she hugged her gently. Yes she hated Louis,but she could never hate his mother,Aunt Lana,the sweetest woman on earth who gave her whatever she wanted when she was a kid. "I missed you soon much Auntie "she gleamed. "I missed you too princess " The queen smiled. Giselle withdrew herself from the hug and looked at her." Auntie I'm not a little kid anymore... Don't call me princess anymore ok?" she pouted and it made her look really cute. "Oh baby but you are a princess" the queen said. Giselle raised her brow. "Yes! The princess of Kristen"The king said proudly. "And we have something important to discuss with you today." "Oh yes of cause. How could we forget... John clear the area please....and Ruth prepare a place for for us to have our conversation." Both servants responded," Yes my queen!" And went away to to do the task assigned to them. Giselle didn't even get a chance to react and saw that her schoolmates where being brought away. "Hey...no wait! Hey Giselle will you be alrighty?" Laura called out. "Yeah ow... Giselle, what's going on...?" Esther asked worried. "Nothing is wrong ok. I know these people. See you later ok? " Giselle quickly responded as she saw her friends being brought away along with the others. "Ok bye... be careful" Esther said . "I will " Giselle smiled.
