A Fairy Tale

Once apon a time there was a nice, normal peasent girl. She had a good life, and was at the top of her classes in a kingdom, so then she got sent away to a school for smart people, where she was put under a lot of stress, while she also had to attend normal school too. Just when she thought her life was coming undone at the seams and she was ready to end it all, she was forced to go to a meeting for people her age by her parents who wanted her to officially become a member of her kingdom that year. She walked into the room but was very shy at first and didn't know anybody and didn't want to talk to anybody either. A boy about her age sat down beside her, but she didn't notice because she was too busy sulking because she had to be there. Then the boy said hi and turned toward her. She didn't realize that he was talking to her at first, because she was sulking. Slowly, she looked up and realized that he was talking to her. She said hi back, but she didn't take much interest in him because she was sulking still and didn't really care what he said to her because she didn't know him. Then, the group was supposed to start playing an ice breaker game to get everybody to know each other. The peasent girl chose not to play. Again, the boy beside her spoke to her again. Come on, he said, don't you like playing games and running around and causing chaos? The girl firmly replied, no, because she was still sulking. So the meeting progressed. Throughout the course of the meeting, the boy continued to find his way to the girl and engage her in conversation. She kind of thought that he was weird at first for not taking the hint that she wanted to be left alone, but then eventually she let him talk to her and she let him in. They found out that they had a lot in common, and that they had lunch at the normal school together, and she discovered that she had found a prince. He was literally and in personality. She began to kind of like this new person in her life. When they finally had to go home from the meeting, the girl noticed the prince looking at her while he was walking away and waved goodbye to her, and then she waved goodbye to him. It was the start of a beautiful friendship.
The boy began to sit with the girl at lunch sometimes and would go out of his way to find her at times as well. After finding her at lunch, they would talk about all sorts of random things and would flirt too. The girl grew to really like the prince and she thought that he liked her back as much as she liked him. They continued with this routine for a while. Then something happened.
All of a sudden, the boy wouldn't come over to the girl at lunch anymore. She would see him look at her, but he would not come over. So she decided to go up to him. She would walk up to him after lunch nearly every day and say things like, I miss you! Where have you been all this time. You need to schedule me into that busy life of yours! It was all in a teasing way of course, not ever pushy. Then one day, after going to all of the football games the prince was forced to go to and after going to all of the kingdom meetings just so that she might see him, and after going up to him after lunch and dropping flippin hint bombs on him, she went up to him one day and said, come sit with me at lunch tomorrow ok? He said almost weary, I'll try. Sure enough, he came over the next day and sat with her. She told him how her week had been bad. He reaveled that his week had been bad to. My girlfriend broke up with me. She was so perfect, I might have been in love with her. It didn't make a difference to him that she was a whore and that she was significantly older. It didn't matter that they had only been dating for a day. He just couldn't stop talking about her. The poor broken peasent girl decided to tell him her problems as well. I have boy problems, so you shouldn't complain. I like a boy who will never like me back. Who? He asked, seeming genuinly interested. I can't tell you, she insisted while he kept on pestering her. She became very sulky, getting low on the table and putting her head down. But he just followed her head down to the table and got in her face, and he looked so cute doing it she couldn't help but laugh, or she at least attempted a smile. Finally he gave up trying to figure out who it was. Accidently though, his inner monaloge slipped up. I know where this is going, he said aloud. Where is this going? the girl asked curiously. The boy's face was shocked. Did I say that out loud? he asked. Yes, you did, the girl replied. Now tell me, where is this going? She pestered him until he told her. She pulled him aside in the hallway in the middle of class change, and they ignored the fact that they were surrounded by people. The guy you were talking about was me, wasn't it? he asked knowingly, almost in a resigned kind of way. Taken by suprise that he knew, the girl quickly grew defensive. No, it's not. She answered almost too quickly, almost, but it wasn't too quick. Why would you think that it was you? she continued, trying to keep things from getting awkward. Too late. Umm...ummm...well, I.....just had a feeling he continued. Yeah right, she thought someone told you liar. But she didn't say this. Instead, she continued, I'm sorry, it's not you; ur not nearly glamorous enough for me. She realized that this was a stupid thing to say, but she was at a loss for words. They both laughed it off, her meaning it as a joke and him taking it that way. If it was you I was talking about though, which I'm not saying it was, would you want to have a relationship with me. I mean....we could try if you ever wanted to. He replied, I don't know; I'm so confused right now. The girl then left him, saying this before she did. You're really confused right now. I' want you to know that you're my friend and I care about you. I want you to figure out your emotions and come talk to me when you do.
She felt really bad that day, because she knew that he would never talk to her again. The next day, however, a miracle occured. He came over and sat with her at lunch. When she asked him if he was okay now, he said that he was and then they dropped it and just talked about random stuff. They never brought it up again, and they still haven't at this point, but who knows? It might come up in the near future. So anyway though, they're friendship continued. Occasionaly, he would find his way over to talk to her at lunch; not so much as he used to. He still talked to her and flirted, it just seemed like sometimes he was a bit distance. The girl wondered if the boy might like her. It bugged her a lot, so she decided to get a friend to find out. When she asked her friend, her friend found out from another friend that he liked his ex still and another girl who was a whore as well as the ex. He just liked the girl as a friend. But that was possibly two weeks before the girl asked the friend to find out when he said that. At least a week. Is it possible the prince lied, or was he telling the honest truth? Maybe he had changed his opinion since when he was asked. And that is what the peasent girl is wondering, as she cries her eyes out blogging and thinking about how the boy never liked her the way she liked him, and about all the time she wasted worrying about him, and how she doesn't know how they can be friends again with the big secret of hers between them. And in two days, they have to freaking go bowling together. All of the girls friends tell her to let the boy go, but she can't. She just cares to much and still has hope that he might like her, even after all this. Let's hope it all works out for her. I'm really sick of thinking about him and how he will never be mine.
