Chapter 9
<At Madams Hearts' Dress Emporium>
Rosella finally finished sewing a dress.
Rosella: "There! This one is finish! Uh, sort of..."
The blue dress that Rosella wasn't right. One sleeve is longer than the other one.
Bertie: "Please, your highness. You don't have to do this."
Rosella: "I can't let you do it all by yourself!"
Rosella then continued to sew. This made Bertie smiled.
<Back in Rosella's bedroom>
Gigi yawned while Rose was pacing back and forth.
Rose: "How am I going to do this? Everyone will know I am a fake! They will throw me into the dungeon in two seconds flat!"
Rose walked over to Gigi.
Rose: "Oh Julien where are you? Where aren't you here?"
Suddenly, the door opened. Rose was shocked.
Preminger: "You are most beautiful, your highness!"
Preminger walked over to Rose. Gigi got off the bed and starting barking at Preminger.
Preminger: "What's this cat doing here?"
Rose: "He belongs to me!"
Preminger: "Oh, he's yours! What happened to the other one?"
Rose: "Uh, she's around here. Somewhere."
Preminger: "I see. So rare that you are apart..."
Rose smiled.
Preminger: "The Queen has sent me to escort you to meet the prince..."
Rose: "Uhhhh, thank you..."
Preminger walked while Rose followed behind. Gigi was getting more and more suspicious. He growled and decided to follow them.
<In the throne room>
Prince Hawk bowed.
Hawk: "I appreciate your understandings, your majesty."
The Queen: "Likewise, Prince Hawk. I apologise for my Daughter little delay in the wedding plans. But it's all sorted out now."
The doors opened.
Preminger: "May I announce! Princess Rosella..."
The Queen: "Oh hello darling, come come. I want to introduce to Prince Hawk. He has something he wants to tell you. Uh, where are my spectacles?"
Hawk and Rose walked towards each other. Hawk bowed.
Hawk: "I am honoured..."
Rose: "Uh. Uhh, *Clear throat*. The Honour is mine, Prince Hawk."
Hawk: "Please just can me, Hawk."
Rose: "Uh call me Rose- I mean! Rosella! Princess Rosella. Uh, That's my name..."
Gigi: "Woof! Woof!"
Hawk: "*Laughs* I hope his bark is bigger than his bite!"
Hawk bend down to pat him.
Rose: "He likes you..."
The Queen: "Prince Hawk, would you do the Honour in playing he piano? I know you love music!"
Rose: "You do?"
Hawk: "I will. If the princess agrees to sing with me."
Rose: "Sing with you...uh, no I couldn't..."
Hawk: "Something tells me you have a wonderful voice..."
Hawk sat down on the piano's bench and started playing.
The Queen: "Sing darling!"
Rose looked back at Hawk and smiled.
<Title of the song is, 'If you love me for me'>
Rose:
Once a lass met a lad
You're a gentle one, said she
In my heart I'd be glad
If you loved me for me
You say your love is true
And I hope that it will be!
Hawk:
I'd be sure, if I knew
That you loved me for me
Rose:
Could I be the one you're seeking?
Will I be the one you choose?
Can you tell my heart is speaking?
My eyes will give you clues!
Hawk:
What you see may be deceiving
Truth lies underneath the skin
Rose:
Hope will blossum by believing
Both:
The heart that lies within!
Hawk:
I'll be yours!
Together we shall always be as one
If you love me for me
Hawk:
I'll be yours!
Rose:
Who can say where we'll go
Hawk:
Together we shall always
Rose:
Who can promise that we'll be
Hawk:
Be as one
Rose:
But I'll stay by your side
Both:
If you love me for me
If you love me for me!
After a stroll in the garden, Hawk and Rose decided to sit by the balcony and watch the sunset.
Hawk: "Breathtaking!"
Rose: "The prettiest sunset I ever seen."
Rose turned to Hawk and she noticed he has been staring at her this whole time. Rose smiled shyly.
Hawk: "There's something about you. You're honest, no pretences. I like that."
Hawk stood up.
Hawk: "Until tomorrow, your highness."
Hawk gave a kiss on Rose's hand and then, left. Rose's face turned from bloom to gloom.
Gigi jumped onto the chair beside her.
Rose: "Honest? No pretences? Oh Gigi, Julien and the Princess are still missing! And I think I am falling in love with the Prince..."
