Rebel Princess - Part 1

Mira continued styling her hair as if she hadn't just said some big news.

Rose's grin turned a lot wider. She turned her head to face Mira directly as she stood up and hugged Mira. They stood like that for a few minutes.

Mira then started to shed tears.

"Congratulations Mira! I'm so happy for you" said Rose as she pulled away from Mira's hold to look at her face.

When she saw Mira was tearing up, her browns quickly knotted leaving no trace of her grin behind.

"Hey, hey, hey don't cry, you're getting married! To the one you love! FREDRICK! Don't cry." she said.

"No. I just can't help it. They're tears of joy. I'M GETTING MARRIED!" then, they pulled each other into another hug.

Rose quickly dragged Mira towards the bed and motioned for her to take a seat. Mira bowed slightly and sat in the bed. Then, they both chuckled.

"Hahaha...ok now, give me the full gist. When did he propose?"

"Two days ago"

"Wahhh?! Two days? Why didn't you tell me this before?"

"Elm...you see, Fredrick doesn't like big crowds so, he decided that only family should be present at our wedding. He only told a few of his friends. I wanted to tell you the day it happened but, he said he didn't want to get the royal family involved. I only convinced him to let me tell you yesterday. And that's how we're here."

"Ok. Well, I can't blame him. Fredrick's always been the quiet type. I hope you both aren't fighting because of me though?"

"No. We aren't fighting. It was just a conversation. We even hugged after it so, no need to worry Rose"

"Phew. I was scared for a minute there"

"Okay. Let's head back to the dresser. I still have to finish styling your hair"

"No! That can wait! Let's about your wedding. I can't wait! Ok. Calm down, Rose, calm down. Nope! I can't cool down at this rate!"

"Breathe princess, breathe"

Rose was overjoyed by this news. She couldn't help but feel happy for her friend who was entering a new chapter in her life.

So, she took three deep breaths to not worry her friend.

"Now, I think I'm sane. Have you picked a church yet?" she said in anticipation.

"Yes, we have. We picked The St. Matthew's Chapel on Orthodox Street."

"What of the wedding dress?"

"I'm planning to go for the fitting next week"

"Good so...can I come?"

"Of course you can! After all, I can't go to my dress fitting without my best friend" Mira then chuckled.

"Yesss! Ok, one last question before I get dressed. Who's gonna be the bridesmaid? Wait! That's not even supposed to be a question" she face palmed herself "Obviously, I'm the bridesmaid and when you have kids, I'm gonna be their Godmother. No one's taking that role away from me! Ahhh...I can't wait to see little Fredricks and little Miras running around the palace"

"Ur gonna be my bridesmaid and my kid's Godmother, Definitely" A second later, Mira continued saying "Now let's finish styling your hair, and then I'll tell you about your second surprise."

Rose dashed towards the stool in front of the dresser. She sat there for a few seconds before turning her intense gaze to Mira." I'm ready" she said. Mira just chuckle and walked up to her as she started to style her hair.

"Ok, now, for your second surprise. Fredrick is on duty tonight" said Mira
