(Ooh, gonna drop the bomb)
Silvia Jane - Vivi smoothed his fresh dress with her fingers, exciting the dressing room and towards the door. Now the castle was fully awoken, and servants were everywhere.
A servant with long dark hair that flowed to his shoulders stood in front of her, his robes were white with small gold lacing, like every servant in the castle. A golden platter was balanced in his hands, a single letter placed in the very middle of the oval platter. A bit excessive if you asked her.
Vivi reached out and took the letter, flipping open the folded paper, her eyes scanning over the paper. Dear Silvia Please meet us in the royal dining hall at 9;00 am, Love, your mother Vivi nodded, then looked up at the servant, "what is the time now?" She asked, the servant pulled up his sleeve, checking at a silver fashioned watch on his wrist. A rare thing that wasn't gold, something personally owned by the man. "8:52" he said, looking up. Vivi smiled and nodded her thanks before pushing through the doors, hoping to get the the dining hall before she was rendered late. - A gentle song was playing when Vivi entered the dining hall, a small band playing gracefully in the corner. Rhythms that matched the gentle love in the air. A large table was placed in the middle of the room, hee father at the head and her mother beside him. A chair prepared for Vivi across from her mother. Vivi smiled, "morning" she whispered as she sat at the table. Sweet pancakes, waffles, fruit, small cakes, chocolate, and hot cups of tea decorated the small end of the table where the royals were seated. A grand smiled was placed on her beautiful mothers face, the crinkling of a smile decorated her fathers eyes. Curiosity coursed through Vivi, as well as some excitement, "what is it?" She asked, slightly impatient but in a excited way. Her mother looked over at her father and placed a hand on his, she gestured to the princess and smiled again. Vivi's father sighed, turning to her. "It is decided that you will be marrying Prince Valeria of the Ritorians" |

Silvia Jane - Vivi sucked in a deep breath, but somehow managed to keep her features schooled to the normal calm expression she usually wore. "The prince of Rito? I.. uh thought he was lined up with another princess" Vivi said, tilting her head, racking her mind. But all she could think about was what she was going to tell Cassian, either way he is going to know, as her parents will announce it soon. Vivi just had to make sure she could tell him first so he didn't assume anything first. Vivi managed to survive breakfast, swallowing and smiling despite the sour feeling that stirred in her stomach, much like the tea hee mother was stirring right this minute. Not long after Vivi dismissed herself from the table, leaving the dining hall and heading towards the royal gardens, hopefully she can hide out there until she had to meet Cassian tonight. When the sky started to darken, Vivi stood up from the bench she was currently seated at, a flower in between her thumb and pointer finger. Vivi dropped the flower on the ground, turning and walking towards the door, it was time to ruin her night and break the news of her wedding to Cassian, hopefully he would still stay with her. - Vivi sat by the window, her gaze on the dark cloudy sky, she had a small table beside her, maids had placed a cool meal on the table, within her reach. Vivi sighed and leaned back in her hair, reaching up and pulling out her braids,hair flowing down her back. |

Silvia Jane - Vivi stood, letting Cassian in, a nervous swirl of emotion clogging her throat, threatening to hide it from him. But she couldn't, she had to tell him, but she didn't want to upset him. Then again, if he heard it in public, it would hurt him more... Vivi looked up as he asked what was wrong, dragging her from her thoughts, Vivi closed her eyes and lowered her head. "We need to talk" she said, her voice small, a replica of her thinning confidence. Vivi broke away from him, walking towards her bed, spinning and sitting on the edge, clearly uncomfortable. Vivi kept her eyes locked on the floor, unable to look at the man she made love to just last night.
"Cassian... I- I don't know how to tell you this..." Vivi whispered, lifting a hand to hold her head.
"I want you to know, that I will always love you, okay? And that I didn't want this... they sprung it on me just this morning. There's nothing I can change" she started slowly, sucking in a deep breath. "My parents... are marrying me off to Prince Valeria of the Ritorians" |

Silvia Jane - Vivi risked looking up, she could see the rapid rage clouding his eyes, making him clench his teeth, his body tense. Vivi reached over and grabbed his hand, her fingers draped over his.
"No, not till after the wedding, and hopefully I can manage to do something... postpone their plans maybe?" Vivi said, her gaze slipping away from Cassian, tipping up trying to think of how to disturb the wedding plans. Vivi turned in her seat, facing Cassian again, "you know I love you, always, but I can't let you get hurt, you know what my parent would do it they found out..." she said, leaning forward and kissing his cheek |

Silvia Jane - Vivi watched him stand and walked to her window, confusion wrapped around her, she knew she could be him killed by doing this but she wasn't going to let her love walk away and give him up.
She wasn't going to let her stupid marriage get in between them, instead Vivi placed a hand on her hip, transforming her expression to mischievous and spoke in a low seductive tone.
"Where do you think your going?" She said, arching her eyebrow, the dress hugging her form thanks to her hand on her hip, pulling the dress tighter. |
