The Forgotten Princess

The next day, Leon was really gone.
He just left me a note in my bed side table.
It said what he just said to me the night before.

I felt empty inside.
This was the first time in two years that we have parted.
Leon has always been by my side since the first time I met him.

’Knock knock’

”Yes? Come in. ” I said.
Tricia came inside my room.

”Princess, Leon left early this morning for his vacation leave. ” Tricia said.

”I know. ” I showed her the letter I was holding.
I forced a smile on my face.

”Do not worry princess.
I am sure he will be back in no time. ” Tricia said.
”Oh and I have to remind you that today your highness and your sisters will be greeting the crown prince Regaleon of Grandcrest on his arrival. ”

”Oh.
Is that today? ” I had a lazy expression.

I am not really in to meeting the crown prince again.
But I remember the day when we danced in my birthday ball.
It was a magical moment, if I describe it.
But that is all, just a moment.

”Let’s prepare you now, your highness. ” Tricia said.
”I do not want you to be inferior to your sisters.
I will make sure you are the most beautiful princess the crown prince has ever seen. ” She made an excited expression.

I giggled.
”You know that I am not really trying to get the crown prince’s affection, right? ”

”Yes, I know.
Because you have met the love of your life. ” Tricia winked.
”But still, I don’t want you to be inferior to your sisters. ”

”Haha, I understand. ” I said.
”But as I know, we only brought normal looking clothes and not the beautiful ones. ”

I remember before coming here that I don’t want to catch so much attention.
That’s why I just let Tricia bring normal dresses.

”Oh do not worry princess.
Your highness, prince Richard has gifted you beautiful clothes. ” Tricia said.

”Richard did? ” I asked.
”I can’t remember he told me about this. ”

”The clothes just arrived early this morning. ” Tricia replied with a smile.
”Here is a letter from prince Richard. ”

Tricia handed me the letter and I read it.

The letter goes:

I giggled after reading Richard’s letter.

”Well, I don’t want to disappoint my little brother. ” I said.
”Come Tricia, let start preparing. ” I smiled.

After breakfast, we were called at the palace’s hall.
I was the first one to arrive, my sisters are not here yet.

I look around to see the empty hall but at a corner I see a young man standing, looking at some paintings hanging along the walls.

He was wearing a regal attire.
A black long sleeves suit and pants.
He had hair as black as night.

’I remember him.’ I said.

”Crown prince Regaleon. ” I greeted.

The young man turned around.
He was wearing a silver mask over the upper half of his face.
His dark blue eyes met mine.
By that time my heart skipped a beat.

”Third princess Alicia. ” Prince Regaleon smiled.
”It’s nice to see you again. ”

His voice rang into my ears.
It felt familiar yet it was the first time I heard his voice after two years.

”Y-Yes, your highness.
It has been a while. ” I stuttered.

”Oh, I have something for you. ” Prince Regaleon said.
He get the blue rose placed in his coat’s chest pocket.
”This is for you my lady. ”

”T-Thank you, prince Regaleon. ” I feel a blush creep in my cheeks.

I know that the blue rose is Grandcrest’s national flower and the symbol of their royal family.
As a prince presenting a blue rose is a symbol of affection.

”The pleasure is all mine. ” Prince Regaleon reached for my hand and gently planted a kiss on it.
I felt my cheeks heated even more.

”I am looking forward to spending this week with you princess. ” Prince Regaleon gave me a very familiar smile that I so much love.
My eyes went wide.
