Marcus thought for a moment, then nodded. He led her to a nearby store.
"It would be best to blend in. We can put your uniform in my bag."
Marcus thought for a moment, then nodded. He led her to a nearby store.
"It would be best to blend in. We can put your uniform in my bag."
Georgiana quickly found a dark blue dress with bell sleeves that almost matched her eyes. "Now I can blend in… to the night!" She said dramatically, holding one hand in the air. She had visibly loosened up after leaving the castle.
Marcus smiled.
"Like a shining star in the night sky."
Georgiana hid her face in her hands again. "Come on, let's go find the princess," she said mildly.
"After you, m'lady." Marcus held his hand out again.
"Thank you," she said, smiling. She didn't really like having her guard down, but Marcus was nice, unlike many people. She couldn't help it.
Marcus smiled back as he walked out of the store, holding the door for her.
"Well, I've lived in town all my life. I just don't get to go out much." Savannah laughed with the group. This is fun… it's nice that they don't know who I am. They don't treat me any differently. "I'm Savannah. What are your names?" She received a Cas, Lily, Theodore, Zach, and Miley.
Sky had gotten a bit too skittish, even with the distance between them and the crowd of people, so she hurried Riverpaw and Eleena away and out of the castle as quick as she could without attracting attention. Once they were outside again, Riverpaw had to admit that she felt much better. "Okay, so, that was fun, but let's never do it again." Her sister said. "But you hardly did anything?" Eleena said, a hand on her hip. "River and I were the ones enjoying ourselves, while you stood around and wallflowered the whole time." Sky shrugged, then grabbed her sister's hand and started leading her away. "Whatever. I just want to get home and out of human territory."
"Fine, sure, I get it. I'll walk you guys back to the forest, yeah?" Eleena took Riverpaw's other hand as the trio made their way to through the city.
"Come sit." Sierra said, patting the log they all were sitting one. Usually there would be a fire right now, but since the nights have been getting warmer there was no need. "Damian I see that you cut your hair. If I'd known you were that handsome I would have left Cas for you." Milly said, pretending to be dazzled by Damian's looks. Cas on the other hand just laughed. He knew she was joking since that's all they ever did. "Kidding, I could never leave this blonde goofball." Lily leand over to Savannah and whispered in her ear. "Are you and Damian a thing? I've never seen him just casually walking around with girls."
Seeing the group of teenagers, Georgiana slowly headed over, feeling a bit anxious.
Marcus stood in the doorway of the store for a moment, watching Georgiana. She really was beautiful.
"Are you going or not?" The store owner asked. Marcus apologized and moved to catch up with Georgiana.
"Mind if I sit?" Georgiana asked the group rather quietly.
Marcus caught up after this.
"Mind if I join as well?"
Cas turned and smiled, handing the two a beer. "Sure, the more the merrier." Damian just sat and chatted like he would every other day when he saw them. He wanted to be a King that knew his people and their needs. A King who was ignorant to his people, was no King at all. "Wow, so many new people!" Theodore shouted out of drunkenness. He always got excited and loud when he was drunk.
Marcus chuckled. He sat, motioning to the spot next to him.
Georgiana flinched at the loud noise, but quickly calmed down and sat near the group.
"Come sit." Sierra said, patting the log they all were sitting one. Usually there would be a fire right now, but since the nights have been getting warmer there was no need. "Damian I see that you cut your hair. If I'd known you were that handsome I would have left Cas for you." Milly said, pretending to be dazzled by Damian's looks. Cas on the other hand just laughed.

I've never seen him just casually walking around with girls."
“Oh! W-Well, I suppose you could say that…” Savannah smiled a bit, blushing. Yeah, you’re supposed to get married in a week and this is the first you’ve met. “Have any of you seen what’s happening at the castle? The ball, that is. Do you know the reason behind it?” Lets see how much the locals know about stuff like this.
"The Princess is getting married right? News get around fast here. I'm so excited for her." Lily clapped her hands together and Sierra jumped in. "I bet her and the Prince are madly in love." From the left came the sound of someone choking, Damian. They must not know that it's arranged. If he had a choice he would marry someone he loves, but he also loves his country. "Man, I want to be in love." Sierra chugged down her beer and slammed it on the ground. "Next one!" She would happily drink all night if she couldn't. It was a surprise to Damian how much they could keep down.
Marcus took a gulp of his beer. He wasn't really supposed to drink on the job, but he needed to blend in.
Savannah had decided not to drink. She was nowhere near drinking age, and even though she was pretending not to drink, she was still the princess. It wouldn’t be right. “Hey, Vannah, want a beer?” Zach asked. “Oh, no thank you.” Vannah… I like that. “Why not? A little sip won’t hurt ya.” “No thanks, Zach. I’m underage and I really shouldn’t.” “Alright, your loss.” Zach grinned and chugged his own beer.
Damian was on his third, unlike the others he was of age. Usually it was around eighteen when you could drink, although Damian didn't do it often. "Damian is pretty good at holding his alcohol, so you don't have to worry about him doing anything weird." Lily winked to Savannah. Damian looked over to Savannah and gestured discreetly to everyone, asking if she liked them.
Georgiana grimaced at the others drinking alcohol. It was disgusting, and it brought back bad memories. She politely declined when offered.
Savannah smiled softly and nodded, seeming to understand what Damian was asking. I like hanging around with normal kids my age… I hope we can remain friends even after they find out I'm the princess. I wonder if Damian will tell them? She watched the others drinking beers and having fun, and it made her happy. She felt like these people were her friends and not just her subjects.
Marcus glanced at the Prince and the Princess. They seemed to be enjoying themselves. He wondered if they recognized him out of uniform. Probably not.
