I am going crazy!

"Mom! dad!" Evelyn threw herself into mom's arms where she feels safe. There's no place better than home. She was hoping to get a tranquilizing feeling from the hug. So much had happened in just one night.

"Evey! What happened? Where's Frayle?" Her dad's question suddenly made her let go of moms arms. Evelyn looked at her dad in awe, as if she couldnt believe what had just came out of his mouth.

"You know Frayle?" Like a three years old child, she asked both her mom and dad.

"Yes, we do. Come on in." Without hesitation, Frayle entered the living room.

"Milady has been attacked by tyrant just now in the ballroom. But I managed to fight him away." He's straightforwardly reporting the scene to Evelyn's dad. They seems to know each other for long.

"It really is happening! Just like the fortune teller said." Mom suddenly break into a cry.

"It is. I'm afraid we could no longer stay here." Dad added to the situation.

"Don't worry. I've done what must be done. The trace should no longer valid." Both her parents were shocked with Frayle's statement. Evelyn, on the other hand, looked as if she's going to die from confusion.

"Hold on a second! Could you please tell me just who exactly is this guy?" they nodded seriously towards each other before her dad opened up with an explanation.

"Frayle has been your knight since you were little baby. Since we brought you to this world. To tell you the truth, we are not your real parents. Instead, we are mere knights disguising in order to protect you from danger. We have been given this task by your real parents, the king and queen, right before they went into hiding. We are to protect you until you have come of an age and could go back to your birth kingdom." Evelyn kept staring at her parents as they uncover the truth about her real identity. Deep down inside, her blood cells have gone rampage. She felt chill and hot at the same time.

"Your real identity was a princess of the prosper Kingdom of Greystone, faraway from this land. The reason for your coming here and living this fake identity was because of your evil greedy uncle who suddenly steal the throne." She was standing in the living room like a statue. Just like the one in stop motion because of Frayle's power just now.

"Princess, knight, thrones, evil uncle, king and queen. That's right. I understand." And with that, her world blackened. She fainted!

"Princess!"

"Milady!"

'Its a dream. Just a nice dream. When I woke up, they'll all be gone. Its just a dream.' Evelyn opened her eyes the next morning. 'Yes, its all a dream. I know it. I just know it.'

And she was just about to get up when she realized the hands that's hugging her tight. She turned her back to see Frederick was sleeping soundly right next to her.

"Fre, Fred, waaaaa!" As she jumped out of the bed. "Wha, what are you doing in my bedroom?!" she's frightened to bone.

Why is Frederick in her room? What is happening to her? What had happened last night? Did they get drunk? Did they do it? All the questions came rushing in her mind. Her heart is beating wildly again. Just like last night.

"Ouch! So noisy!" Frederick woke up and caressed his hair.

If not because of what had happened last night, Evey might have been swayed by his charming face. Seeing your crush in your bed. Just who doesn't want that?

"What are you doing down there?" He asked abruptly as he noticed Evelyn sitting bewildered on the floor.

"Wha, what am I doing?! I should be the one asking! What are you doing in my room?" as soon as she came to her senses, she turned furious again.

"Why? Cant a husband sleep with his own wife?" Huh? Evey's mind looked as if its has lost its key. Husband? Did he just say husband?

"Husband? You said husband? Since when?" She couldnt help but asking. Why is everything so confusing lately? Am I going mad already?

"Last night. We did kissed remember? Look at you wrist. And your neck." Evey touched her lips. Kiss. All the memories came back to her. The sweet kiss in the back of the car. Her face turned bright red all of sudden. As she turned to look in the mirror for her neck, there happened to be a mark. On the neck and on her wrist.

"What is all of these?" The mark looks like a flower shackle. Its like a tattoo-like-flower bracelet and necklace appearing on both her wrist and neck.

"Its a mark. Wedding mark. We did fulfil our vow with that kiss last night." Frederick stood up to put on his shirt. Thank God he's still got his pants on.

"No! We're not! You stole that kiss!" Even more, that was my first kiss! How could you! Evey's been crying underneath. That kiss was supposed to be for my one and only love. Wait a minute? He's the guy I've been admiring for so long. But still! It shouldn't be like this! I want my first kiss back!

"Oh yeah?" Frederick leaned on to ask for her hand. He just couldn't bear to see his princess sitting on the floor.

"Anyhow! Please, get out of my room! Now!" she grabbed Frederick's hand and in a split second, she tossed the so called husband out of her room and shut the door abruptly. "Oh, I'm going crazy. Definitely!" She doesn't even know his real name, whether its Frederick or Frayle, how could they got married all of sudden!? Even more, the marriage vow is just a kiss?! This just doesn't make sense!

"I need to get out of here. RIGHT NOW!!"

As his feet reached the dining room, Frayle noticed a bright smile on Raven's face. But he didn't smile back. He sat next to him with poker face.

"Morning, lovebird!" his mouth was full as he was eating pancake for breakfast.

"Where's the princess?" asked Ludra as she cant see a trace of princess entering the kitchen.

"You sure did keep your promise, ey?" raven opened his mouth once more for a mouthful of pancake. Ludra's cooking was never delicious compared to today. Or is it because they can finally be their self once again? So long since they were able to take off their disguises which make them younger again.

"What do you mean?" Frayle tried not to bring back the promise. Its not a very exciting promise to be remembered. As long as he fulfil it, he doesn't need to even reminisce the bad memory.

"Just." Raven did sense the fury coming from Frayle. So he just dropped the subject.

"I'll go wake the princess." Ludra walked out of the kitchen. And before Raven could come up with another topic for conversation, they heard Ludra's screaming coming from second floor. "The princess is MISSING!"
