I was awkwardly standing in the living room of Ashton’s parents’ house. Ashton was by my side and Clara was sitting on the side sofa with Nicholas who has been staring at me for the past 5 minutes. Practically we are waiting for Mr. and Mrs. Maddox but Nicholas is killing me. I turn my face towards Nicholas and speak, “Just speak already. Your stares are killing me.” His face scrunched as he spoke, “I just can’t wrap my head around you being a princess. I mean you don’t look or even act like it.”
Okay, I feel offended. I roll my eyes, “After everything, this is what’s bothering you?” He shrugged and spoke, “Yeah, I mean putting everything with Addy aside, this was a real shock. I was a teeny tiny bit hurt but I get it. If I were in your position, I would have still told me though. I thought you trusted me the most and you are like a small sister to me. I felt close to you. Don’t know if you did, though.”
