When I arrived back to the castle it was late afternoon and I was covered in dirt. I couldn't use magic on the grounds or his Majésty might find out, so I trekked upstairs and asked a maid to run me a bath.
When I finished my bath and was dressed I walked into my room to see Lieutenant Cross, looking rather crossly at me.
"If you keep making that face you won't be able to catch yourself a girlfriend Cross." I say and his scowl deepens before I sign and gesture to the coach across from my arm chair. We sat.
"Where were you!" He snaps and I sighed.
"I was in the garden, where were you?" I smile radiantly and he looked even angrier.
"I searched the entire garden. TWICE. I did not find you there, you only reappeared two HOURS later. Where the HELL were you?" I tilted my head innocently and deflected.
"What does 'Hell' mean?" I ask and he goes from red to blue to white in a second. Then begins to stutter as my mom walks in. After looking at us in confusion I turn and ask again,
"What does hell mean mommy?" I turn my eyes up at her as innocently as possible and she looked like a deer in headlights. Then she turns to the Lieutenant.
"Where did she hear that." Mom's voice had gotten deadly.
"Momma?" I call and she turns and gives me a smile before going on to say,
"Rosie, why don't you go play, I need to talk to the Lieutenant here." I then bound out of the room. Hehehe poor Cross, but you really shouldn't underestimate me~

Eventually, my feet landed at the first princes playrooms door. Raven was leaning against the wall and looked fed up.
"Taking a break Raven?" I ask as I arrive and he jolts and turns to me.
"Make a little noise next time, and don't hide your presence." He gripes and I smirk. I then nodded to the door and he opened it after knocking.
"Hello your hig-" I barely got that out as something flew at me at a high velocity and knocked me to the ground. I groaned in pain and looked down at the brown mass of hair that was the head of the first prince whom had tackled me. In the next second he was forcibly stripped off me by Raven and then I was lifted back up onto my feet.
"Jezz you don't ever stop do you." Raven clicked his tongue and Arthur grinned at me before taking my hand and dragging me into the room to play.
Eventually it was Lieutenant Cross that saved me from Arthur and I pretty much ran to his arms to escape. Ok I did. After I ran to him in my effort to escape he picked me up and carried me away while Raven dealt with the Prince. He has waaaay to much energy. I'm so tireeed~ I started to nod off in his arms and seeing that he shifted his hold on me so I didn't need to support myself at all. I admit I took advantage of it, and took I nap on his shoulder. S-shut up I'm only five I can't help it I haven't been sleeping too much lately with all I've been doing. S-SHUT UP! I'm not goin to end up shorter because of sleep deprivation your lying!
