Free Someday My Prince Will Come (epic love story) by sarah faith Page B

right now that my body was too weak for this
     
     

 
    moment I fainted.
     
    I woke up the next morning. My head didn't hurt, and my eyes weren't blurry like a normal case of what happens after fainting, but everyone WAS crowded around my bed like they thought I was going to die. What do you expect? My hunk of a boyfriend just told me that he was a prince AND that he loved me and I was pretty much going to be a queen in one night. That's a lot to take, thank you very much.
     
    I saw everyone around me in chairs sleeping soundly. Freddie, my wonderful prince, looked like he had fallen asleep sitting beside me, because he was lying on the bed holding my hand in a strange position. My aunt and uncle had brought up their old rocking chairs and I laughed when I heard the comforting sound of my uncle's snoring.
     
    The birds sang outside the window where the sunlight had broken into. It cast warm rays throughout my room causing a warm, cozy feeling on all of us. I looked at the ones I cared about so very much. They looked so very peaceful, and I didn't want to wake them up Just yet! As carefully as I could, I climbed out from under my covers and attempted to get out of bed without waking anyone up. I didn't succeed with my plan, for almost as soon as I moved, Freddie was awake, and alert. I put my finger over my mouth, telling him to be quiet and he glanced over at my aunt and uncle and then he gave me a knowing smile. He let go of my hand, but as soon as we had both tiptoed around the bed, we instantly connected again.
     
    Like stealthy spies, Freddie and I snuck down the hallway, down the stairs, past the dining room and into the kitchen with success! Once there, before I could even breathe, Freddie had captured me into his strong arms and was kissing my cheek. I giggled at the feeling, I had always been ticklish there, and placed my arms around his neck. He loved it when I did that so I felt him respond by giving me a squeeze.
     
    The feeling of knowing everything about him, every tiny little thing was so reassuring to me. For once it actually felt like a real relationship, not something that I forced myself to love. Don't get me wrong, though. I loved spending every second with Freddie. It was just hard to be happy when I knew everything wasn't completely right.
     
    "Good morning, love." he whispered then kissed my nose. "Mornin'," I said, still breathless from his kisses.
     
    "Are you feeling ok?" Freddie put his hand on my forehead.
     
    I laughed at his silly attempt to be a doctor. "I don't have a fever, silly. Maybe you should stick to being a prince?"
     
    "I don't really have any other choice," he grinned. "So you aren't disappointed?" "About which part?"
     
    "My being a prince."
     
    "How could I be? Every girl wants to be a princess!"
     
    "Even vicious creatures like you?" He teased and reached his head down to bite my earlobe.
     
    I squirmed and playfully slapped his arm for saying such a thing. "Of course. I don't think I'll mind it." "Well, it's not a piece of cake you know. Like in stories or movies. It's much different than that. Reality is something even Hollywood doesn't want to mess with."
     
    I looked at his hair then brushed my hand through it. It was soft and playful. "I know. Especially from what you told me last night. What, with being kicked out of your own palace? That's awful. But I'll be there for you, always," I said looking him straight into the eyes. I saw his eyes flicker with love and it made my heart well with pride. "There's something I never got to tell you last night though, Freddie."
     
    His eyes suddenly flashed worry and his voice matched it equally. "Oh, yeah?"
     
    I nodded solemnly. "I love you too," I practically whispered. I never thought I would hear those words come out of my mouth. Finally! He knew; I knew everything was right.
