Chapter 13

Amanda Estelle "Catch!" Logan said but I wasn't responding fast enough to catch the croissant. It hit my head and I looked at Logan flatly. "You're a bad catcher, Mandy." He said as he plopped beside me. "Tell me which bakery.." I said as I opened the plastic to eat the croissant but before I could take a bite, Logan took it away from me. "What the?!" "I told you that I made this, why are you so stubborn?" He hissed and I laughed. "Fine.. fine! I believe you.." I said as I took my croissant from his hand. He leaned his head to my shoulder and he let out a deep sigh. "What is it?" "It's just my father." "Why? Did he ask you to go to Denmark?" I asked and I took a bite of the best croissant ever. "No, I don't think he likes me being in London. I think he's regreting his own decisions." "But why though? What's the reason?" I asked. "He wanted me to hangout with the noble families or maybe.. people like York Company or the 7 Gold Lifes." "Of course, that's what I thought too." I said agreeing with his father's thoughts and Logan looked at me weirdly. "Why is that?" "You're royal, Logan. You're a prince and hanging out with people who are from noble families or maybe the York company or The 7 Gold Lifes will make you learn a lot more and besides isn't it better to hangout with those people? You all have the same status, level and education." I said and he shook his head. "When I'm with them, I can't be me. I have to be proper, be smart and be a Prince. I want to be friends with someone who doesn't come for my status, money or fame." He said as he sat up straight looking at me seriously. "It's not that I hate them or something, I know them personally and they are nice people but still I can't be myself when I'm around them. They knew who I am from the very beginning, completely different from you." That made me smile. "Wow.. I'm so special." I said as I flicked my hair to the back. Logan looked at me shaking his head. "So.. let's get into the homework." I said and Logan moved to sit right beside me and leaned his head to my shoulder. I completely wanted to smack his head because I hate when he's doing skinships like this. I have a crush on Jason remember? But why am I thinking about Logan almost day and night these days? Every morning I wake up, I always get excited to see Logan. Everyday I hangout with him at school and then we will go back to my house to do homework and hangout again. We're basically inseparable. Not only that, he loves giving me these skinships that made my heart flutter and my knees go weak. I'm completely attach to him. There's a saying about a boy and girl's friendship that I read online. There's no real friendship between a boy and a girl, there's always one of the two who fell in love. I mean.. I always laughed at it because I never really had a boy-friend before but now.. I think it's true. I felt it.. and it's dangerous. "Why are you ignoring me?" Logan poked my cheek and I realized I was day dreaming about our relationship. "What? What did you say?" "What's on your mind?" He asked me and I shook my head. "I remembered that you told me about confession the other day.." "What about it?" He asked as he still put his head on my shoulder. "What if a girl comes to you and confesses her love to you?" I asked in a careful tone. "It depends on the girl, I think. And besides.. I can't date anyone I like, Mandy. I have to stick to the rules that my father made." That made me realize that even though I'm starting to like him, it will always be a one-sided love. "You have to marry another princess?" I asked and he suddenly sat up straight. "Why are you suddenly curious?" He raised his eyebrows looking at me suspiciously. "Nothing, I'm just bored and I don't want to do this homework." "Why? You're thinking about your crush? Are you planning to tell him? Who is he?" He asked me as he leaned his head closer to me. I glared at him as I leaned backwards. "No.. I'm not." "I'm going to guess.. is it Jason?" My eyes widened when he said that and he clapped his hands like a seal. "Mandy, it was so obvious. You were looking at him at the cafeteria all the time." What?! Did I?! "It's not Jason!" I quickly denied it. "Then who? Don't tell me that it's me." He said as he pointed at himself. My body was in shock that I think I stopped breath for a few seconds. "You're ridiculous!" "Thank God, Mandy. If you are, you have to forget about me." He said dramaticly and his words hurt my feelings a lot. "Why don't you turn into an actor? You're good." I said as I clapped my hands to turn his attention away from the previous topic. "I'm too handsome to be one and besides it's cooler to be a prince." He said in an arrogant tone. I smacked his head and he glared coldly at me. "Don't be cocky, Logan." "That hurts!" He groaned but I couldn't care less. That's revenge for hurting my feelings earlier even though he doesn't know about it. "You should find a man who can handle your violence! You're starting to get violent these days." He's being dramatic again. "This is the first time I hit you, don't be a drama king." "I am a future King." He said proudly and I shook my head as I turned my attention to my homework. "I'm going to marry the most beautiful, smart and sexy princess one day." He said all of the sudden and I turned to him, smirking. "And I'll marry a hot, cute, handsome, rich and smart American guy." "You can't!" He shouted at me. "Why?" "You can't move to America! It's too far from Denmark and from me." He protested and I don't know if it's just a joke or if it's real. "You're getting married and are you still hoping that I will stick around?" "Yeah!" What? "Why?" "Because you hate to! It's a law.. from me to you, Mandy." He said as he pointed his finger at me. "Law? Are you nuts?" "Then don't even think about finding an American guy to be with you. You can't move to America and be far away from me. It's a no, Mandy." "What are you my father? You can have your beautiful princess and why can I have my own cute guy around? You're a selfish dude!" I bursted angrily and he pouted. "Because I can.. I'm a future King, remember?" "Yeah.. King of Denmark not the UK. I'm not your people." I said as I crossed my arms in front of my chest. "Whatever.. you do this alone, I want to sleep." He said.
