Rain, Roxanne "Rain" . [the reading list txt] 📗

servant girl started opening the door, it was pitch black the room but then she turned on the light. Inside it was the most beautiful closet I have seen in my life. You could walk inside, It was Hugh, both walls filled with clothes, lined up the most gorgeous dresses on standing manikins, I didn’t know what to do. She clicked her fingers, and the rope around my legs vanished. I looked down at my legs. Yes. Freedom I wanted to shout. She pointed in the direction she was in the chair I sat on was shaking a little. I think she wanted me to get up. I started to stand up and walked towards her. Not knowing what the hell was happening. The closet was soo beautiful I wanted to live in there. As I walked towards the servant girl in the closet, I caught a glimpse of myself in the window. I looked myself up and down, from the tip of my boots to the top of my head. My hair was a total mess. I started to pick at it with my hands; it still had Kasidy’s nasty milkshake and spaghetti in it. Ew. Great. I got to the closet, I was even more amazed up close to it. “Here you go Miss Rain…” she said as she handed me a towel, and a change of clothes. She then pointed to the door at the end of the closet. “…there’s the bathroom. Please get cleaned up and come back to me.” She carried on talking. I took the towel and clothes from her and started making my way down towards the door. I stopped and turned to see if she was still there, she was. “erm, thank you.” I said to her, and carried on walking down this enormous closet. Opening the door, there was the bathroom, pretty big. Same size as my bedroom back home… I forgot. Where am I? Oh well I might as well take this at advantage and get cleaned up. I turned the shower on, let it heat up whist I stared in this giant mirror in front of me. I still looked the same. Apart from the messed up hair it had spaghetti in it. Eww. I ran my fingertips through my hair, pieces of spaghetti fell out, as well as the meat she had with it. Oh shit, the shower. I always lose my concentration on other things when I look in a mirror. I took off my messy uniform and climbed in to the shower. The water was soo warm; I didn’t want to move from this spot. I washed the food out of my hair, hoping it doesn’t stink of the meat Kasidy threw on it. After finishing off in the shower I turned the shower off, grabbed the towel and wrapped it round myself. For a moment there I felt weird taking a shower at someone else’s house. They are strangers to me, but I really wanted to get cleaned off. I started to change into the clothes the girl gave to me. The clothes fit perfectly, how does she know what size I am. She had given me this midnight blue type of prom dressy dress. Why would she give me this if I’m going back home after I get washed up here? Then I thought back to before, when I saw that girl lacy in her fancy dress, as well as the guy saying before to take me to the banquette hall. Seriously. What is happening here! Tying my hair up so the water doesn’t drip on to this gorgeous dress. I walked out the bathroom to the girl. . I walked down slowly staring at the boy, wondering who he is, trying to get a proper look at what he’s like. Next to her was a boy sitting down on a stall. Was it Alex? No wait, it could not be. His hair was the same colour as mine. This boy he had blonde hair, soo similar to Alex’s. Thinking about it, he looks exactly like him, but blonde hair. Why did he come in here? As I walked down slowly staring at the boy, wondering who he is, trying to get a proper look at what he’s like, without realising as I walked down that the door of the bathroom slowly slammed shut. They both turned and looked at me. I stopped. Frozen. I stared back at them. The Alex look-a-like stood up and walked towards me. As he got closer, he started to look more and more like Alex. I stood there. Staring at him. Wondering, who he is. He stopped right in front of me.


He was exactly like Alex from the tip of his head to the bottom of his feet. He bowed, took my hand and kissed it. “Welcome home Rain.” He said as he lifted his head after he kissed my hand. “Ale…” I tried to talk. But he cut in. “..Haha, Rain you still can’t tell the difference between me and him. It’s Daniel remember. Aww Rain, this is why I love you” I stood there dumbstruck. “Love? Me?” I managed to mumble in. “Yes, Rain. You…” He said as he turned to the girl in the room. “…Zoe, did she get a knock to the head or something?” he turned back checking my head for any bumps or bruises. “No, I don’t think she did Mr. Daniel” Zoe replied. “hmmm, it’s most probably because you haven’t been back here in over 5 years…” he said thinking out loud to himself. “…Well, I will be waiting for you Rain. Our grand entrance will start soon.” He then kissed the crown of my head and walked off. I don’t know what came over me but I suddenly reached out and grabbed his hand. “Wait!” he turned back and looked at me. “What the matter?” Daniel replied. I stared at him, tears started to fill my eyes, I blurted out “Please, tell me what’s going on here!? All I can remember is having a fight with this girl at my school, being chased by these two creepy people who I thought was my best friends, then collapsing on the floor, rolling around the back seat of a van, being dragged out of the van, talking to Lacy who thinks she is miss queen of the freaking world…” taking a deep breathe, while trying to catch my breathe before talking again he gave me this weird look like I was crazy. “…Getting changed into this really amazing dress, then being approached by you Daniel being told that you love me.” I was crying so much, this feeling I wanted to go home. But where was home? Daniel then pulled me close to him, leaning my head onto his chest, while wiping the tears from my eyes. “Rain, please don’t cry. Everything is going to be all right, it will all be over soon. All you need to do it get your powers and then it is complete. Finished. You can sleep after that...” His voice was soo soothing, I felt so much better in his arms, I finally stopped crying. Powers? What did he mean by powers? “…Will you be able to do that for me?” I looked up at him and nodded. He gave me a smile, I smiled back at him. All of a sudden, his lips met mine. I don’t know but it felt magical. “…See that’s the princess smile I always want to see.” He then released me from him and walked off out of the room. I watched him as he walked off feeling dumbstruck again. “Princess Rain, we still have to do you hair.” Zoe cut in. I slowly drifted to the chair where Zoe was standing by. I didn’t pay any attention to her calling me Princess. She had done some loose curls in my hair; strangely, she knew I never like my hair up. She done it perfectly. She started to place the tiara in my hair. While looking at myself in the mirror that’s when it hit me. “PRINCESS!” I shouted, scaring Zoe. Zoe replied from behind the Chair. “Yes, Rain. You’re a Princess.” I froze. Staring at Zoe. Thinking what the hell is actually happening now…
Chapter Five ~ Explain To Me Again…?

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. I was still standing there. The word princess ran in circles in my head. I turned to look at who walked in. It was Alex. In a suit. Wait wait wait! Hold up. From school to this. This is crazy. Really, what is happening? “I see your already for tonight Rain.” Alex started to talk as he made his way toward me. I stared at him. I felt pissed off. I wanted to punch someone. I looked at him with soo much anger in my face. He stood in front of me. He started o examine my face. Like there was something wrong with me. His stare was just magical. His eye glowed so bright, I started to feel warm. I was about to speak then, he turned to Zoe, “Zoe can we have a moment in here alone please.” Huh?! Alone, what is he on about. Thoughts just ran through my head just then, what’s gonna happen? Am I going back to school? More likely am I going home! Zoe started to walk out to leave the room. She didn’t say anything. All she done was bowed and walked off. Seriously what’s happening here. As Zoe walked out. We was alone. I moved his hand from my chin, and started to walk off. “Rain…” Alex called after me. I turned to him and started to scream “What!? What did you do to me! Why the fuck am I here!” I started to cry, I walked back towards him screaming and shouting. “Urhhh! My life was perfectly fine before this, what the fuck is happening tell me I have to freaking rights to know…” I started to punch, and hit his chest. He just stood there, taking it. He didn’t stop me. “..what did I do to deserve this..” He grabbed my hands so I would stop hitting him, I collapsed into his chest crying. “You was chosen. I had to do what I had to do. I’m sorry Rai…” he replied softly. “WHAT!? I was chosen for what!? Your sorry! I will be the one saying sorry if you don’t tell me why!” I snapped, I pulled myself off him.

“Look Rain. I’m sorry. This was orders from the King for your Mr Daniel…” confusion struck me. My Mr Daniel. Huh? “…He requested for you to be brought here, that’s why I was in your school. That’s why I sai…” “Wait wait wait, is that why you said that to me. When I was in the nurse’s room. Seriously. And I thought of something else.” I cut in. Alex just stared at me. “ Seriously Alex. Why would you say such things then bring me here for him. I mean Daniel.” Alex just sighed. I looked at him. None of us spoke. “ALEX! Please just
