I'm not updating any other of my stories, but creating new ones. I'm such a bitch. Hmph.
New idiotic ideas pops in my stupid head. And I don't know where to put them… I actually dreamt this :D
It was a silly story, but I somehow made it better than the dream. Enjoy.

1. A bitchy girl and a cocky prince
A petite brunette girl sat on a bench in a park and she was listening to music to calm her annoyed mind. She was really angry. That stupid prince of England was sooo... Alice didn't know how to describe his stupid and cocky character. This royal prince is getting on poor girl's nerves so much that she wants to eat him alive.
The whole incident was in the cafeteria. It was calm and peaceful, Alice was chattering with her best friends – Sharon and Charlotte, Lotti for short. And then he stepped through the door. With his deadly fangirls, who would kill anybody to keep the prince to themselves? And why so suddenly, the prince wanted to transfer from London to Sablier?
And when Alice sat down with her friends, she forgot her favorite melon bread. She wanted to buy it so badly! But the prince was there and he held a tray of food, but those stupid fangirls screamed and held into the tray tightly.
"Let me help you, Nightray-sama!"
"Nightray-sama! I can hold it for you!"
And then accidently Alice bumped into him. It was an accident, because, first, the raven-haired prince was near the cafeteria, second, the fangirls were scrambling and pushing each other and third, Alice was so annoyed of the screams and this whole 'Nightray-sama!' thing that she didn't pay attention to anything.
When she bumped into him, the tray fell, making a loud sound, which everyone were taking attention to. Alice's eyes widened, Gilbert's narrowed. "Watch where you're going, midget," the prince said coolly and he was annoyed as hell, 'cause his shirt was all dirty with food. "Now look what you've done!" he yelled at the brunette.
"If you're fangirls weren't so lovey-dovey around you, this wouldn't have happened!!!" Alice yelled back and the prince's fangirls were in shock and fury. "And you're the one who should say 'sorry'. Or is it so hard to you?!" The prince's fangirls were so angry! They began to whisper.
"What a bitch!"
"Nightray-sama should send her to jail!""
"How could she?!"
Alice completely ignored the girls' talks and her gaze was on the cocky prince. He bent down and whispered in her ear. "Only this time, I'll let you live. If something like this happens again, I'll give you no mercy," his whisper was soft and a hint of anger boiling in his voice. Alice somehow trembled.
And then, with his fangirls who still sent her death glares, he went to the rooftop and Alice leaved without her favorite melon bread.

"Oh shit! I can't believe you did this?!" Lotti's voice echoed through the school's garden. Alice kept frowning at the memory. 'He wouldn't even dare to hurt a girl,' she thought and smiled wickedly.
"He's the prince bastard. He shouldn't be so cocky and he should at least respect the others. What kind of king would he be?!" she almost yelled. Sharon laughed. Lotti still was in shock. Alice was in fury. Sharon finally spoke as she held a cup of tea.
"I never knew, that you could be so cruel, Alice," she sipped her tea and smiled. Sharon was a real lady. She drank tea, she acted nicely, and she was polite towards everyone. People described her as a unicorn, because she was graceful and gentle. Lotti was a lion. Well, most of people described her as one, because she almost always gets into fights for some reason. She was pretty, kind of nice, but cruel to people who would mess with her friends and, especcially, her.
"I can kick his ass if you want," Lotti offered. Alice shook her head and thanked.
"No, Lotti, thanks though," she refused. "I can handle things like this, you know, it's not my first time," Alice smiled thankfully. Lotti smiled too and nodded.
"Fine," she told the brunette. "But don't go to me crying, then," the pink haired girl added and smirked.
As Alice shouted at the red-eyed girl, both Sharon and Lotti laughed as they ate.

The lessons were already gone. The group which contained Gilbert, Break and Oz, still sat on the rooftop.
"Alice?" Gilbert asked and Break nodded.
"Sharon-chan said so. She likes to talk about her friends, especcially the lion and the meat-loving monster," the silver-haired guy said and smiled as he chews another candy.
"Lion and meat-loving monster?" Gilbert questioned a confused expression all over his face.
"Lion is a girl named Lotti. Not the one you're interested. But the meat-loving monster is the same Alice-kun," Xerxes answered, still smiling.
The boy named Oz, who sat near them smiled wickedly. "She's kind of interesting," he said, the smile not leaving his lips. The prince and Break shivered at the thought. Oz was really popular with girls, but not as much as Gilbert was. The blonde now didn't say anything as Ada, his sister and Gilbert's girlfriend popped out of nowhere and she smiled with a blush.
"Hello, minna!" she cheerfully chirped, she seated herself next to Gilbert and gave him a kiss.
"Hello, Ada-san," Break politely greeted and took another large candy to his mouth. Ada nodded and swallowed her saliva, almost choking on it. 'What should I do...' she thought. She needed to talk to Gilbert, but she didn't want to see him hurt. If she would tell him this, not only his, but her heart will shatter to million pieces.
"Gil," Ada finally spoke. "Can we go somewhere? I need to talk to you privately," she said silently, her head bent down. Gilbert smiled at her.
"Sure," he said and took Ada by her hand. When they walked from their friends, Gilbert spoke again. "Maybe the park?" he suggested and Ada nodded with a nervous smile.
When they arrived, they hid from everyone; he knew Ada wanted to say something serious. She acted nervous, when she got to say something to him. "Spill it out," Gilbert said a serious expression on his face. Ada narrowed her brows, bent her head down and Gilbert somehow heard a sob.
"I… Gil, I… We can't be together…" she sobbed hardly and Gilbert's eyes widened. He sighed. "I need… to go to America… to study… medicine…" her sobs were painful to Gilbert and she couldn't breathe. "F-Father wants… me to…" she finally said and Gilbert hugged her tightly. He told her to calm down as the blonde girl sobbed into his chest.
No one of them noticed a petite brunette staring at them.

Alice watched the couple. She sat on the bench and saw them hugging each other. It was a safe distance; otherwise one of them would see her. "I didn't know that the bastard would have a gentle side," she whispered to herself. But to think about that those fangirls of his are stalking him, made her feel angry. They could interrupt the moment here. Alice was angry at Gilbert too, because he didn't bother to shake them off.
'Poor girl,' Alice thought. She suddenly walked towards them, without noticing to herself, hiding in bushes, then silently climbing on a tree.
"I'm sorry," Ada whispered the apology and her voice trembled with pain and sadness. She already stopped crying. Gilbert softly played with her yellow bangs and embraced her more tightly.
"I understand, Ada," the raven-haired guy replied, still silencing her. "I understand. I love you, so… don't be like this."
"Thank you, Gil… Thank you…" she closed her eyes. She quickly opened them again and escaped from Gilbert's embrace. "S-sorry, but I need to go. We can't be together…" she quickly said and ran away.
Something fell and landed with a thud. Gilbert looked back to see Alice and a branch under her legs. She had bruises all over her arms and legs. "What are you—?!" he started to yell, but was silenced by her talking first.
"I didn't mean to peep!" she shouted. Gilbert widened his eyes and then narrowed them. He approached the innocent girl and grabbed her arm.
"YOU SAW?!" he yelled on top of his lungs, and then relaxed. "Look, if you're go—"
Alice interrupted him. "I'm not one of those people, who blackmail 'perfect' persons. My sister raised me well," she started. "And I'm sorry for that girl. I don't even know, what you two were talking about, so," she frowned, "I won't tell ANYONE about the incident."
"Really?" he asked hopefully. "I can give you anything! A new house, car, anythi—" Gilbert once again was interrupted.
"I don't need anything," Alice told him. "But please let go of my arm. It hurts."
Gilbert suddenly let go. "S-sorry," he muttered and Alice grinned.
"You should have done that already, you stupid prince. It was nice to hear you begging. But… I have one request. Be gentler with people and order your fangirls to get away from me. They chased all the way 'till the park," she said annoyed. Gilbert let out a gentle smile.
Wind blew past them, but Gilbert still was worried. "You won't tell anyone, right?" he asked again. Alice shook her head.
"I already told ya I'm not!" she yelled.
"Fine. See you later," after that, Alice stood here and looked at the fading figure of the bastard prince.

After Alice got home, she was embraced by a white-haired beauty. "Welcome home, Alice," she greeted. Alice smiled and snuggled closer. She let go and noticed a sad smile on the white-haired woman's lips.
"What's wrong, Alyss-nee-san?" Alice asked with a concern she only showed to the said woman and her two friends. Alyss didn't want to tell her this. She should find happiness on her own.
"Alice, you see… How to say…" Alyss mumbled. "Long time ago the royal family was indebted to us and… Our family elders agreed for the prince to marry you and…" Alyss didn't find the words to go on. Alice stared at her unbelievingly.
"Y-you must be joking, nee-san," Alice said seriously. She shook hard. Alyss watched her younger sister tremble, tears forming in her eyes.
"I can't do anything, imouto-chan… I'm really sorry…" Alyss hugged her tightly as Alice cried. "But… I want to help you… I want to stop the king and the queen. I don't want to force you either… I just want you to be happy…"
"It-It's alright, nee-san… If I have to…" Alice managed to look at her sister's violet eyes. "I want to be strong. I always was a burden to you when our mother died!" she cried out.
"B-But Alice…"
"It's okay with me… As you said, that I don't have a choice… And as I said that I don't want to be a burden to you… They still will take me away, right?" she laughed a bitter laugh.
"I promised, that I will protect you!" Alyss couldn't stop the tears, which were freely flowing out of her eyes.
"But to think, that I will marry that shitty prince," Alice smiled. Alyss's eyes widened.
"Y-you met him already?!" she shouted. Alice nodded. "Then you will get closer to each other in no time."
"WHAT?!" Alice shrieked. "WHAT THE FUCK?! HE'S A COMPLETE ASSHOLE, WHO'S A BASTARD!!!!"
"No badmouthing, Alice. Especcially your fiance. Shame on you!" Alyss laughed.
"HOW ABOUT A NICE SHUT THE FUCK UP?!!" Alice threw a nearest pillow from the sofa to the innocent looking Alyss.
