Enjoy XD I do not own Shugo Chara or the Story The Princess and the Pauper.

Oh! Note: Rima isn't that short in this story.

It was a beautiful morning in the land of Clovers. The sun was rising from behind the large green moutains that stretched towards the west, the birds were flying off into the morning, singing their morning songs, families were waking up to start their day, the rich and poor.

In the large palace which the king and queen of the land of Clovers rule, a princess pulled her covers over her head and continues to sleep. Her parents were already awake, dressed, and sitting at the table for breakfast.

"It seems our daughter hasn't woken up yet," the queen stated.

"It seems so." The king motioned over one of the maids that was standing in line with the others waiting to pick up their plates. She quickly made her way to the king's side, "Go fetch my daughter. It's not proper for a princess to over sleep."

"Yes, sire."

She bowed and made her way out of the dining room but ran into the princess's companion and student teacher. She found him bent over a rose bush with a journal, as he smelled the rose's sweet aroma, "Fujisaki-san!" (A/N: I'm going to still use honorifics, just so you know)

The man with his violet long hair and honey color eyes looked up and smiled at the maid, "Ah, Katou-chan, good morning."

"Good morning to you too. Can I ask you of a favor?"

"Of course."

"The princess is still asleep."

"Ah. I see. I'll go wake her."

"Thank you," she bowed and went back to work.

After she left, the man closed his journal and went back inside to wake up the princess. It was easy for him to find her room in the large palace since he's been to her room so often for her lessons. He didn't bother knocking to see if she was awake. Instead, he just walked in and placed his journal on the desk and looked at the bed. He saw the lump under the sheets and chuckled to himself. He let a smirk spread across his lips as he took a step back and then leaped onto the bed.

"AAAAHHHHH!" Sheets flew off as his body impacted with the bed. The princess sat up in her bed, shocked awake. Her long golden locks tangled from sleep and her golden eyes rid of all sleep she had before being awakened rudely. She looked at the man that woke her up and started to beat him, "Nagihiko Fujisaki! I'm going to kill you for doing that!"

Nagihiko was laughing as his princess continued to beat him, "Aw, come on, Rima-chan. Admit it was funny."

"I'll show you funny!" Rima started tickling Nagihiko knowing that he was very tickelish.

"No! Please! Rima-chan! Have mercy!" he said inbetween laughs and Rima couldn't help but laugh as well but eventually she stopped tickeling him and then the two of them were lying on her bed smiling at each other that is, until Nagihiko sat up, "We'll, you should get dress. Your parents are expecting you for breakfast."

"But eating with them is boring," Rima pouted, "All they talk about is stuff they got to do today and then tell me 'Oh and Rima, a suitor will be here later. Please be pleasant'."

"You're next in line for thrown, Rima-chan. You need a prince, a king by your side," Nagihiko explained to her although she picked up a hint of disappointment in his voice.

"But I don't want a prince!" she complained and fell back face first into her pillow and screamed into it in fustration.

In the village, a young girl was running through the streets, cursing her luck with time. Her pink bubble gum hair flowing behind her and her honey color eyes sweeping across the streets trying to find a shortcut.

"Dammit! I can't believe I'm late again. Man, she's going to kill me!" she said to herself as she made it to her destination. A dress shop. She walked around back and peeked into the room to see her co-employee sitting at her usual stool, threading a needle with an almost finished ivory dress in her lap. "Pst! Utau!" she whispered.

Utau, a girl with long blond hair normally kept in pigtails and violet eyes, looked at the door and frowned, "She's with a customer. She's really pissed, Amu."

Amu sighed as she walked in and shut the door behind her, "Man...And I thought I could get away with it."

"You wish and get working. You don't want to get in even more trouble, do you?"

"Of course not." Amu tied up her long pink hair and pulled out the dress she was working on yesterday. She threaded her needle and continued with the stitching for awhile until the door that led to the store burst opend, causing AMu to prick herself with the needle.

"You're late."

Amu looked up where her boss stood, glaring down at her from the railing. Her swamp green eyes burning with anger but Amu was more focused on how her boss managed to keep her red-brown hair in its curls but she shook the thought from her mind and bowed her head, "I'm sorry, Saaya-sama."

"You should be. My mother was generous to give you this job in the first place, even after everything she's already done for your poor family."

"They did it to feed me!" she raised her voice.

"And look where you are now. Working for their debt." She stuck her nose in the air, turned, and left, leaving Amu steaming.

"That Saaya," Utau hissed, "One of these days, I'm going to give her a piece of my mind."

"Whatever, Utau. Lets get these dresses done."

So that's the first chapter =D. I'll update High School Problems soon and this story as well.

R&R plz!
