I have decided to post up the next part of the story since there has been a lot of requests to do that. After this has been posted, PLEASE IMAGINE THE REST!!!
——————————————————————————————————————–
When they disappeared into the crowd of other important people, I tried leaving as well. Sadly, Prince Austin ran after me.
“Where are you going? We haven’t even said a word to each other and you’re already leaving?” he asked.
“We have now said more than a word to each other, and I’m going to my room so I can get away from this stupid dance party.” I replied.
“Look, I don’t like this anymore than you do, but-” he started.
“Oh, a likely story. You seem absolutely delighted to be here,” I interrupted.
“-but if we just have one dance together, maybe our parents be on our backs forever.”
I thought about it and it seemed like a pleasant idea, no having my mom fussing over me all the time for a change. So I said OK, hoping that the next dance would be a fast one, disappointed by the fact that is was really slow. Austin held out his hand and I took it, seeing as I sort-of had no other choice. We walked over to the center of the dance floor, he put his hand around my waist, I put mine on his shoulder, and then the music started. I tried remembering the steps to the song, but thank god that Austin was leading, because he seemed to know the dance pretty well.
‘Right foot back, left foot left, spin’ I thought ‘Out, back in, step right, twirl…”
The song seemed to go on forever, but finally, at 20:00h it was over. I was so relieved that the dance was over, but I couldn’t manage to get away because we were called over for dinner. Everyone took their places at the dinning tables (I went to the one at the top of the room that is placed horizontally to the other tables and sat beside my dad), and began talking and eating. I stuffed my face with a turkey leg very un-princess like (I didn’t care that Mum was giving me a really disgusted look thinking how I was ever related to her. In fact, I was glad). That’s the only thing I like about the parties we host. The food. Royal chefs in the kitchen are either: Italian, French, Spanish, and Indian. The food is so good, I don’t understand why we don’t get to eat like this all the time. After all, my family is royalty. When there aren’t any parties the chefs cook other fancy stuff which isn’t as good as the kind they serve at the parties.
We all ate and talked, some with their mouths full(including me). At 20:30h Mom rose to make an announcement.
“I have an announcement to make. First, I’d like to thank you for coming to to this, marvelous party-”
‘It’s not like they had a choice,’ I thought.
” -Second, you all know that my daughter, Princess Jasmine, has come to a certain age, and that she is now eligible for marriage.”
‘What? Where’s this going?’I thought. I was really listening now.
“Now that she is eligible for marriage,” Mum continued “King Lubert has agreed to engage her to his son. Prince Austin.”
“What?” I shouted. Everybody was staring at me, including Prince Austin.
“If you did not hear me correctly Jasmine, I said that you are getting married to Prince Austin.” my mother replied.
“No I’m not,” I said “I don’t have to, and you can’t make me.” I stood up, and left the dinning room, I left the bottom floor of the castle and went in my bedroom. How could she do this to me? Since when was she in charge of my love-life? I was so angry I didn’t even expect my would’ve come barging into my room and start shouting. Which I should’ve, since that’s what most people would do.
“How could you say no to marrying Prince Austin? He’s such a gentleman, and he also seems to fancy you. To make matters worse, you embarrassed me in front of 1,000 people!”
“I don’t want to marry Austin because I’ve only known him for five minutes, and he seems like a big goody two-shoes.” I replied. “You don’t know that. Anyways, there’s no point in arguing, you’re getting married and that’s final.” Mom shouted.
After she said that she left the room and slammed the door shut. I couldn’t believe everything that just happened. I was getting married! But no I wasn’t, because I made my final decision:
I was going to run away.

That’s it guys, after this I would really appreciate it if you imagine the rest. This was the closing of Chapter One, and maybe you’ll read Chapter Two when it’s in hard cover after being bought at the book shop. I don’t know, anything could happen.
Nooo! Please keep writing the story, it is SO good!
`but what if it isn’t going to be made into a proper story? we won’t ever know what really happens
Hey, I have an idea. You know the way u said we should imagine the rest? Well, why don’t you let other people post what they think by letting them comment and then posting it under the title of something like “princess of rock- your point of view!” and having loads of peoples different endings?
Thats a great idea Kava
aaaah….. thank u!
