The Princesses of Lilah Lakes

*MAXINE'S POV*

"Who are you?" I asked the guy - Zayn - as we entered the kingdom.
"Zayn, I told you." He mumbles.

"I know your name, but why are you here?" I reply absentmindedly and call on the guards to arrange another meeting with the princesses - yes, so soon, DON'T JUDGE ME - and to bring a guy.

"I have a concert. With my band mates."
"Band mates? You're in a band? What's it called?" I demand as I turn around.

"One Direction."

"One Direction, huh?" I nod.
"Well Zayn, you're staying here for a while."

"What!?" He says anxiously. I have to admit he's hot, though. But that's it. Nothing else.

I smile which makes him soften a little.
"I still need you."
God, I mean that in the least-awkward way I can..

"if you want to see your band mates and learn what all this is, you'll stay with me."

He nods a little, perplexed.

"Now I'm just going to go change and I'll be right back," I nod as I rush upstairs, change into a smaller dress, and come back.

No, I'd much rather be wearing converse thank you very much. However my parents always made me look like a princess, always wear dresses, always be polite.

He raises his eyebrows when I tap down.

"Guards, he's not an intruder," I say tiredly.
"We're sorry, Princess."

"No problem." I smile.

"Fix up Mum and Dad's room for him. He'll be staying there.."
