“Oh thank-you,” Fira said as she hugged Steve.
Steve smiled and said, “I’m doing this to help but I want you to think fully about this and this about what would have to happen after the wedding.”
“I will and thank-you very much,” Fira said as she rushed out to the stable to get Fireball. Fira was thinking about what Steve said as she headed back for the castle and she realized what he had meant. He had meant that if they got married even if it was fake she was going to have to have children with him because she was the heir to the throne and so she had to continue the family line. Now she had no idea what to do but she thought at least marrying Steve wouldn’t force me to marry a mean guy. So, she went home and left that alone even though she still hoped that Tommy would think about what he keeps saying and decide to marry her cause she still loved him. As she came back, up to the castle, she saw Tommy and he was helping Ryan fix up the stable. She almost fell off of Fireball at that moment because she had fell completely dazed, so she pulled Fireball off into the forest and got down. She looked back out to where the stable was again and realized something, if seeing Tommy without a shirt could cause this much damage to her mental state how could she marry someone else she had to just get Tommy to agree to marry her. She climbed back on Fireball’s back and told Fireball to go the way through the forest so maybe she wouldn’t almost fall in daze again. Fira went through the whole forest and then all of a sudden Ryan jumped right out of the trees in front of her.
“What are you doing going this way,” Ryan asked.
Fira looked at him and said, “What are you doing sneaking up on people?”
“I didn’t know who it was and why didn’t you just come up the road?” Ryan asked her.
Fira looked at the ground and said, “People weren’t fully dresses for my showing up.”
“Oh so you saw Tommy without his shirt, okay I can’t blame you. So did you find what you were looking for in town?” Ryan Really didn’t know what she was looking for in town so he decided to ask.
Fira looked over to Tommy who had just walked up after putting his shirt back on and to Ryan said, “No what I want I found a bit ago.”
“Oh hey Fira when did you get back?” Tommy said.
Fira looked at Tommy and said, “Just now so where is Fikia.”
“She went inside. She said something about some work for you,” Tommy said.
“Okay I’ll go give her the candy. Tommy can you put up Fireball for me and then you can stay here with Ryan or you can go and hang out with your mom,” Fira told Tommy.
Tommy looked at Ryan and said, “I’m going to go see what my mom has been up to. Okay?”
“Sure that’s fine. Just take care of Fireball first. I think he’s the one thing that can bite through my flesh,” Ryan said.
“See you guys later. Bye,” Fira said as she took off to Fikia’s room. When she got up to Fikia room Fikia was freaking. She threw her the candy. “I don’t see your deal with having to have candy,” She told her sister.
“Mother won’t let me go get it because she knows that the moment I find someone to marry I’m gone and so she won’t let me go to town cause she definitely doesn’t want me marrying a commoner. I think someone told her about the way the bread boy was looking at me. Well now that I’m fine what did you do?” Fikia asked.
Fira started laughing and said, “If anyone told anything about you and that bread boy I think it was the way you were looking at him more than him looking at you. You had your head about half way around your body. While he was just froze with his mouth open.”
“He was cute! I couldn’t help it. I wonder what happen to him. Ummm….” Fikia told her.
Fira laughed and said, “He still works at the mill and he is still as cute. Okay now for what I did in town. No question till I’m done. First I went over to the stables and put away Fireball and then I went to Veronica’s and Zax’s club, yes I mean that Veronica, then I searched for Zax or Veronica. Then I talked with them and planed the marriage to Steve, Zax brother. Okay then I almost hurt and officer, told you that you need to take those classes when Madame FleeShay was here. Then I went and got the candy for you then went to get Fireball. After I got Fireball, I went to Steve’s house to make sure with him that the plan was okay and he said he would do it but for me to think about wheat I’m doing. I thought about it as I was coming back and he found the flaw in your plan. If I marry him I have to have children with him.”
“Oh shit I never thought of that,” Fikia said.
Fira smirked sarcastically, “No duh brain girl.”
Fikia looked at her and said, “What are you going to do now?”
“Keep trying to convince Tommy to marry me,” Fira said.
“You mean you want to have children with him?” Fikia asked.
Fira looked at Fikia’s candy bag and said, “I mean I want to marry the man I love and give me some of that.” Fira grabbed the bag and poured it out on to the bed. All the candy fell out and so did a small piece of paper. Fira picked it up just as Fikia went to grab it. “What’s this?” Fira opened it up, “Oh a love letter. Let me see, from Alex. Wait that’s the bread boy. So you have seen the bread boy lately. I’ll read it to you. Dear Fikia, I’m sorry that it may take some time for you to get this letter but blame your sister, she doesn’t come into town every day. Hey, that’s not nice! I’m going to finish this. I really do miss you and want to see you again…”
“Give me that,” Fikia screamed.
Fira smiled and said, “Let me finish. Want to see you again sometime soon if possible. The day you get this letter please meet me out in the woods, you know where at. I will ask Kevin if your sister has came by and got the candy. Hope to see you soon. Your loving Alex. How sweet. We got to go. Really we do.”
“It’s not for you to go,” Fikia told her.
“I can always tell mother,” Fira replied with a smile.
Fikia smirked, “You do and I’ll tell about Mr. Prince Charming, Tommy.”
“Oh Fikia let me go please! Look we can make a deal I’ll bring Tommy and you can meet Alex,” Fira proposed.
Fikia sighed, “Okay but don’t tell Tommy that we’re sneaking out.”
“Cross my heart, hope to die, stick a needle in my eye,” Fira said with a small laugh.
Fikia smirked and said, “Whatever meet me at the edge of the woods. Oh ya and about that officer. What did you do to him?”
“He slapped my face after grabbing me so I was about to hurt him for talking mean to me and his behavior but he got scared and took off,” said Fira.
“That has got to be embarrassing for him but he deserved it, man maybe I should have taken those classes,” Fikia said with a smile.
“Okay well I got to go and find out if I can get a different dress but I don’t think so mother is going to scream at me because of how long I have procrastinated,” Fira said as she rush out the door. She rushed down stairs and ran right into her mother
“So there you are,” Elle said.
