CHAPTER ONE

Knowing The Princess

In a small town of England there was an orphanage. It is about an hour or two to the city proper. It is year 2000. An orphan named Derek was in the river, thinking who his parents might be. Derek is a very handsome boy, like a prince but he never new his family. He heard a splash coming from the river, and ran to see what’s happening and saw a girl drowning. He rescued her but it seems like the girl doesn’t want to be saved.

The girl cried and cried saying “why did you rescue me? You could have just let me drown.” Derek was confused and asked, “What is the matter? Of course I would save anyone who’s drowning”. “No! You don’t understand! I want to die! My boyfriend left me and I’m pregnant!” she cried. After a few moments the girl stopped crying and started to talk to Derek.

Derek asked in a very ease tone, “Why did he leave you? Is it because of the baby?” “It’s not the main point, don’t you know me? I am Miley Princess of France! Only child of King Edward and Queen Anne.” Miley uttered with a worried tone. Derek was totally confused and thinks. He remembered in their class, the royal family of France, the Williams. Derek once asked “what are your worries? Maybe I can help”. “You can help if you are a royal blood and ask my hand in marriage. You helped enough”. Miley said and she walks away without saying thank you. “DEREK! It is my name! I’m an orphan” why did I say that? She doesn’t deserve the respect, she is rude! But again he realized her situation. She is like a rat that is trap in a big box.

The day after (May 8 2000)

Derek was called by the nun and asked him to go in the river banks. He saw Miley in a very beautiful white dress. She was like an angel from heaven. She went near him and said, “thank you for saving me yesterday. You made me realize that I should just face everything but I’m not ready to tell my father the truth.” Derek smiled and blushed saying that it’s no big deal. She is the Princess and she should be protected. What is he like? “I beg your pardon?”(miley) “him. What is he like? The father of your child.” The princess reacted so weird that she asked him if they are friends now, why would she say anything to a stranger.

“I am Derek; I have no surname because I don’t have a family. I’m 17 turning 18 three months from today. I love playing table tennis, basketball and volleyball. I’m a straight A student. What else do you want to know?”

“Nothing, lets just get to know each other okay? I am Miley Anne Williams, the heiress to the thrown which I don’t want to take. I am 17 turning 18 three months and ten days from today. We are the same, Leo. I am pregnant, my boyfriend left me and his name is Clark. I love table tennis too! It is my sport. I am home schooled but in college I will study here in Oxford. But I don’t know if my Parents would ever trust me once they know about the baby”.

They talked and talked as if they were the best of friends. It was the most awesome time Derek had. He was always in the orphanage and just studies. He rarely go out and play or just hang.
