59 Chapter 59: Princess Is In love?!

After Sungah's sudden departure I decided to go back to my dorm room. No point in going for a relaxing walk when there are sharks that's always trying to poke holes into my enjoyable fun time. Ugh... I expected my life here to at least be smooth sailing but these people have to ruin it.

For goodness sake, who on earth caused this chain of false rumors to spread? I don't particularly remember anyone that I caused any problems too. So an act of revenge is surely not an option. This is just plain aggression, isn't it...

I sighed and continued to head to the quickest route to my dorm room. I don't want anyone to see me and just look at me weirdly and just think of me as a hussy. When I was walking there, a deep mellow voice called to me in the distance.

My heart dropped for a second from being surprised by the sudden call. I turned around to see Lucas Carter. Also known as the prince of Tomoki High. He was waving to me with a very gentle and carefree smile. Melting my worries and anxieties away.

"Hello, we met again Grace." He taps me playfully in the shoulder. "Is this where you are staying?" He pointed to the dorm building.

"Yup! I just moved here yesterday with my brother! We're actually sharing a dorm room so ya." I chuckled. Although Lawrence isn't exactly my brother, he's my attendant...

"Oh, that's good! You have your brother with you! You know sometimes I always feel lonely in my dorm room. I haven't had any company in quite a while." He smiled charmingly, making my heart beat fast.

OH MY GOD! WHAT'S THIS FEELING OF BUTTERFLIES IN MY STOMACH! Just from his smile, I'm already feeling like I won the lottery oR SOMETHING... DAMN IT WHAT IS UP WITH THIS GUY!

"By the way, how are you and your brother? Are you close? I never really had any siblings so I lived my life without anyone there for me." He smiled, checking up my "brother's relationship with me"

"My brother, Lawrence, and I are pretty close. We have grown quite the sheltered life so we never really got out and everything. I've always stayed my whole life in my home." I replied to his question. I know it's a bit of deception but it's better if they don't know that I'm a princess.

"You know. I'm quite worried about you." He grabs me by the hand and places it in front of his face as he looked at me passionately. ACK! WHAT IS WITH THIS GUY! HE'S WAY TOO CLOSE.. not.. that I mind or anything but still!

"I.. I.. um.. you're.. you're way too close..." I stumbled over my words as I could not handle his hotness. he's just way TOO GOOD LOOKING... CAN SOMEONE EVEN BE BORN THAT WAY...

He then notices my uncomfortable body language, making him grin innocently. "Ah!" He lets go of my hand gently. "I'm sorry. I was a bit careless. Did I make you uncomfortable by suddenly grabbing your hand?"

"I... no... I mean yes... I mean no... LOOK! What I'm trying to say is that..." I bit my lip at what I was about to say. "I... I didn't mind.. you grabbing me by the hand.." I whispered...

"Huh?" He went a little closer to listen to what I had whispered under my breath. " I didn't quite get what you just said. Can you please repeat it?"

"It was nothing!" I muttered out with a blush on my face.

UGHHH! WHAT WAS I THINKING! SAYING THAT I WANTED HIM TO GRAB MY HAND LIKE THAT! THAT SOUNDED MORE LIKE A CONFESSION! HE MUST FEEL AWKWARD NOW! Way to go princess dumb! I'm sure this young man is just being nice! We shouldn't assume that he likes us...

I continued to argue with the thoughts on my head until he spoke, cutting me off from all the nervousness. "Have you been okay? I'm worried about you, you know?"

I.. my heart drops from the way he said, it sounded so caring and sweet... why did that suddenly just make my heart skip a beat! STUPID HEART STOP! HE'S JUST TRYING TO BE NICE! Don't go acting like he likes you or anything!

"I'm fine... why do you ask though?" I responded enthusiastically. Hiding the fact that I feel flustered and embarrassed at that moment.

"I heard that the other girls were giving you a hard time. Remember when you were in the cafeteria and those girls were harassing you? I was surprised that they were harassing such a sweet innocent girl."

AAAAA... He's just too wholesome! LUCAS IS JUST SUCH A WHOLESOME PERSON! IS THAT WHY HE WAS CALLED THE PRINCE OF THIS SCHOOL! HE'S SO REGAL AND CHARMING! I'M ROYALTY IN MY COUNTRY BUT I HAVE A FEELING HE'S ALSO A PRINCE IN DISGUISE...

I calmed myself, "Um... yes..." I responded timidly. "The girls weren't particularly nice and respectful when they see me and they didn't put any effort in trying to hide it either..." I replied to him, taking a deep breath.

"Ignore them. I feel like they are just jealous because you are so beautiful." He tried to comfort me.. and it worked QUITE A LOT.. he.. HE JUST CALLED ME BEAUTIFUL..

"Ya... um.. thanks... but I have to get going now...." I tried to hurry up the conversation. I'M GOING TO DIE OF EMBARRASSMENT IF I STAY HERE EVEN LONGER! WHAT IF I MAKE A FOOL OUT OF MYSELF INFRONT OF HIM! "SO BYE!" I started to dash away from the scene to go to the dorm house whilst hiding my face from how red it is.

UGH! I'M SUCH AN IDIOT! WHAT AM I DOING INFRONT OF THIS GUY! HE'S CLEARLY CONSOLING ME AND I'M ACTING ALL GIDDY! Am... am I.. like.. in love with him or something?! IS HE THE PRINCE TO MY CASTLE?!
