"Isabella! That is my dress! You stole it!" accused Faith.
"Liar! This is mine" huffed Isabella. She grabbed onto part of the dress and pulled.
Faith went to grab it "Stop! You will ruin it!"
Their arguing continued and it got louder and louder. A few minutes later, Queen Everline walked into their room with Monika in tow. "Monika has told me that two were arguing. That is not how Princesses your age should act." She frowned in disapproval. "Tomorrow is the day all three of you turn ten. Your sister Susan should arrive today, and I want all of you to be on your best behavior. Or we will cancel what is planned for tomorrow. Is that clear?"
All three nodded their heads. "Good. Now tell me what the argument was about."
Faith took hold of the dress and showed it to her mother. "Isabella stole my dress!"
"No! It's mine, she is lying"
Everline examined the dress "Actually this dress was given to Monika, who didn't want it anymore. She was planning to give it away to another little girl who wanted it."
Monika nodded in agreement "I tried explaining that. But you two was too far in your argument. Nothing I said stopped you."
"Now that it's settled, let's get ready for Susan."
Later
Susan held all of her siblings close, except for Eliza who held Henry. "Oh how I missed you all."
"Susan, where is Carter?" Asked Edward.
"He is in England right now, getting to know his fiancé. But in two weeks he will come back with her and England's royal family for the wedding."
"Carter is getting married" grinned Charles.
"Yes, and he is going to live here will us."
Everyone smiled at that. "I can't wait to see his fiancé" said Isabella.
"I bet she is beautiful." stated Faith.
"Also kind. Carter will want a kind wife." Monika added.
"I bet she will be that and more. I just hope she will love our family and our country." Replied Eliza.
All of the children nodded at that. They hoped for a wonder wife that Carter will marry. They want his happiness. But Susan was a bit scared. Will this marriage drive him and her apart. They were close siblings, he was her best friend. She wanted it to stay that way. Everline saw that something was bothering Susan, and offered to talk to her.
Susan's rooms
Everline took her daughter's hands "What is wrong my dear?"
"I am afraid of what will happen to the bond Carter and I have, once he gets married. He has always been my best friend, I can always trust him."
Everline held her close. "Then trust that no matter what happens, you two will always be close. You two are my first children, and you both are growing into wonderful and strong adults. You are both smart and caring, and your closeness to each other has grown. It is forever strong. Don't worry about tomorrow, think of what you two have today."
Susan smiled "Thanks. I just need to breathe for a moment."
Everline hugged her "It may seem like we are always busy, but me and your father will always be here for you"
Susan smiled "I know."
Outside
Eliza sighed as she walked back inside, it was getting late. But she needed to think. There has been so much going on. But as she went to go inside, a noise startled her, and she became curious. Foolishly she went to examine the noise. She sent all of her ladies and guards away for a hour.
"Hello? Show yourself, if there is anyone out there."
The sound of footsteps were heard "I am telling you now! I will scream for my guards." She tried to act as if they would hear her.
But no one would be able to hear her scream, as her mouth was covered by a piece of cloth.
AHHHHHHHH! I AM SO SORRY! Just been very busy! So what did you think? I just love bond between siblings. And Carter getting married! Should I introduce a love interest for Susan? I don't know, but I do know I left you at a cliffhanger! I am sorry! But it for something HUGE to the story! Who do you think took Eliza? And why? Try to guess! Till next time! (Hopefully soon! O.O)
