The mood of the whole castle was tense because of the ball. I came down to see my parents talking to Brandon. Quickly, I hid in the hallway to hear what they were saying.

"Make sure you ask where she lives," my mother said to Brandon, who was nodding his head vigorously.

"And suggest if she wants to stay over the castle."

What! Stay over at the castle!

"Good Brandon, then we are all set!" my father said.

Then I entered.

All three pairs of eyes stared at me suspiciously.

"Hi...., Mother, why is the ball starting late?" I asked with a straight face.

"Yes, it's that our guests want to arrive early," she confessed.

Such a terrible lie.

I pursed my lips and stared at them. My father wore a navy suit and my mother wore a darkest blue and I wore a light blue. Brandon wore a dark blue suit.

Brandon looked at me with a smile. I ignored the smile.

Then the security guards, who were dressed in white stood at a golden table. On that table, it contained the list of people in Lily and the people who reserved a spot for the occasion.

Some people begun to enter. Some, actually, surprisingly a lot, came in gaudy colors.

"Hello Princess Angela"

"Hi Princess Angela"

"Oh my, you are looking so pretty, Princess Angela."

"Nice to meet you Princess Angela"

"Happy Birthday!"

"I love your dress."

My head was about to explode until I noticed a the girl with blond hair and green eyes enter. She was wearing a pretty pale blue color dress and was accompany with the dark hair guy, who wore a shade darker. Both held hands and looked adorable together. The girl suddenly blushed deeply as the guy kept talking. They rushed when they saw me edging away from the center of the crowd.

"Hi Princess Angela, my name is Sara and his name is Travis." she said breathlessly.

Sara wore no makeup unlike the rest of the girls in the room. And all emotions from her looked innocent.

"Pleasure to meet you Angela and Travis," I replied.

Travis had the rarest looks. I never seen a boy with jet black hair and brown eyes with fair skin. Somehow, he was strangely familiar. I think I must of seen him when I was younger somewhere.

He was looking googley eyed at Sara whenever she wasn't looking.

Then both of them abruptly turned toward my parents and Brandon.

I noticed that Sara was more fidgety near my parents. Then the people came back to greet me.

"Ahem, time for the annual dance! It will start with Princess Angela and Prince Brandon. And then Princess Angela and Queen Amelia. And after that, Princess Alexander. After all that, it will Princess Angela with Sara Roses. And lastly, Princess Angela with Travis Crotts. Finally, everyone can dance with Princess Angela." the speaker announced. He sounded tired after talking this much in the microphone.

Poor guy. He made no sense. Poor me, actually I have to dance five times.

Brandon held my hand and escorted me to the middle of the dance floor.

The fancy music started and we swayed magnificently across the floor. Since we both knew how to dance gracefully, it was like dancing on clouds. He twirled me and my dress flew in the air. We forgot that we were dancing on a public floor, so we grew feverish as the song turned to an ending. No one dared to interrupt even. It calmed me completely when he almost resisted to end the dance.

For the next song my mother came. She was not as strong or graceful as Brandon. She kept stepping on my feet and letting go at the wrong moments. I was thankful for the song was short.

Then my father came. He danced beautifully because he was happy.

I almost forgot but I had to dance with Sara and Travis.

Sara was a good dancer. At first, she fumbled as she treaded on her feet.

"Oh I almost forgot, Happy Birthday Princess Angela!" she exclaimed.

"Thank you. Just call me Angela." I said.

"Did you know that today was my birthday?" she asked happily.

As soon as she said this, I panicked. I tripped on the floor dumbfounded.

She laughed when I slipped on my dress. This incident must of mortified my parents, but I paid no attention. I joined her laughter as I spun her around.

"Um... happy birthday Sara." I said as I blushed.

"Thanks." she smiled sweetly.

Unfortunately, the song ended and I had to dance with Travis.

Travis was smooth dancer. His hands were nimble and fast. He spun me around and around about three times and I almost fell.

"Why are we twirling so much?" I asked.

"Oh I like to watch you twirl while I stand there and rest my feet." he confessed.

"How about I twirl you, three times in a row?" I asked suggestively.

Before he could reply, I made the man twirl three times while I calmed my feet.

"I can see why you don't like to twirl," he muttered.

The song ended and I escaped to the bathroom because my feet were killing me. I decided that I will never wear this flats ever again. The restroom was right behind a woman with bright yellow lipstick. I almost made it until Brandon's huge chest blocked me.

"Angela can you stay here with me? I will stop the crowd from chasing you." he said with a nervous smile.

"I don't need help." I growled.

"You should just leave with me alone and dance with whoever you like."

The thought accidentally came out loud.

Then Brandon's smile widened. He looked at me with his eyebrows raised.

"Oh really, since when did you care about who I dance with? How about I dance with you?" he asked with a full smile which showed his dimples.

"No," I replied.

Still, I didn't reply with a smile and slid to the left but he blocked that side.

"Please join me, I have no one to talk or dance with. And I do not want to talk to anyone else" he muttered urgently.

"But I have to go to the bathroom and you cannot stop a lady." I said defiantly.

"I cannot, but I can do this." he said mischievously.

Brandon didn't move but stood there staring at me with his big blue eyes for a long moment.

The blue was a deep ocean color and his reminded me of the sand in a beach.

"Please, Princess." he begged.

"Fine." I sighed.

Suddenly, he grasped my arm and took me to the dance floor.

I forgot completely about going to the bathroom after the first dance with him.
