"Yes." he said, without even looking. he still had Bella on his mind. He turned to face the server... and could only see her as a normal serving girl. "Your face seems very familiar.." Royce said, putting a hand to his chin.

"That's coz she's da one that serves the food!" cried one of the more drunken knights, managing to rouse a few laughs from the others.

Royce sighed. then one of the other knights spoke up, " But.. I've never seen this one before, though. She's awful clumsy, too. "

All the knights were now looking at Bella. " oooh, a new girl, eh?" a few said simultaneously.

She bit her bottom lip. Yes, I ought to look familiar, we just spent half a day hanging out! She wanted to hit him and yell "DUH!" or at least talk to him, but half of the men in here were drunk, and it was still in daylight hours. Slobs, she scowled.

She took the ladle and poured the stupid soup into Royce's bowl, putting a little extra in it and making sure not to spill it all over him like she had a previous knight. Aime's hand clutched hard around the ladle as a few of them made comments.

"Oh, I'll show you clumsy you - you lazy oaf," she snapped, trying not to use a modern insult at one of them. A couple of knights jeered and Aime began to lose her temper. A knight nearby was laughing and she took his bowl and poured it on his head. He screamed and threw his helmet off as it landed on a table nearby. There was a round of laughter.

"A feisty one, ain't she?" She almost screamed in annoyance as someone pinched her butt. Dear god, not even boys in the mosh pit were this bad! Aime put the heavy pot down on the table, sending a bunch of it sloshing over the sides.

"Learn how to feed yourselves and maybe you'll all be able to stop living with your mum!" Aime, angry and frustrated once again, stomped into the kitchen and out through the tiny door, back to the well as she began to wash the tears from her face.

Royce ate calmly despite the chaos ensuing around him. he had simply closed his eyes and blocked out everything, concentrating on nothing but the soup.

Once Aime left, the other knights began to grumble, some still making jokes and defending themselves even though she was long gone.

"Oy! 'E's the one that started et!" one knight accused, pointing at Royce " "E's the one that should fix it, eh?" This roused more approval from the knights, mostly because they wanted to see what the girl would do to Royce.

"well go on, fix it, Junior!" they jeered. Royce sighed, standing up and leaving to go and "fix the problem"

Searching for Aime proved simple enough. ' i apologize for the rudeness of my fellow knights, Mi-" he stopped. with the flour washed off her face, he could recognize her now.

"Aime! What were you- How did you- Why are you-" he was talking so quickly that he could barely spit a sentence out.

" I thought you were heading back to your home. Why are you still here?" he questioned with some concern in his voice.

Aime gasped as the door closed and someone came up behind her, but she relaxed a bit when she saw who it was. The girl sighed and sat on the edge of the well, being careful to lean on the outter edge. Her arm was wrapped around the post just in case. She was paranoid.

"Isn't it obvious? If I could get home I'd probably be there by now." Aime sighed and rubbed her temples. "This place is just one disaster after another. Now some stupid obese woman thinks I'm a servant girl. Bride, witch, servant, geez, what who are they going to mistake me for next? The Queen?" Aime kicked the wooden bucket and it went flying across the small yard.

"I'm stuck here."

"What do you mean stuck? can you not just get on a boat and sail home?" Royce asked.

"And I'm sorry for my fellow knights... Most of them are drunkards, and the other half and quite as... sensible as I am..." he explained, looking down as if it were his fault they were that way.

But she's still here... but not because she wants to be... She still wants to leave, so therefore I must endure it again... Royce thought with a heavy sigh.

Aime breathed out in exasperation.

"It's just not that easy," she muttered, ripping the cloth and pulling her hair back into a low ponytail. She wouldn't cry again, she vowed. Instead, Aime held her head high and stood up straight and confident.

"I'm going to find a way out of this place, mark me, but there's no way I'm going to put up as being a peasant girl," she scowled. "I'll find another stupid job and pay for an inn or something. I suppose I shouldn't be weighing you down like this anymore."

"I don't mind it at all. I can handle burdens quite easily, as you can see." he made a motion toward the huge sword at his side. "Not that I consider you a burden. Quite the opposite."

She obviously does not enjoy it here. is she angry at me, or just angry with everything?he thought.

Carina looked down at the old woman and sat down in the chair beside the bed with a sigh. She pulled her hand through her hair which kept falling down in her face.
"I don't know, it just doesn't feel right," she confessed to Royce's mother. And then she told her about everything, her childhood, and how she felt trapped in upperclass-England. When Aime and the other girl showed up. And the wedding, the horrible, horrible wedding, and how she'd made Aime do it for her.
What had she been thinking?
A tear fell from Carina's cheek and down on her dress. Her wedding dress. The old woman laid her hand on hers and looked up at her with an understanding look, but before she could say anything, someone knocked on the door.
A voice was shouting on the outside.
"Hello? Are you there?"
Carina hid under the bed.
"Come in," Royce's mother said. It was her neighbour, and she seemed stressed.
"How are you? Have you heard it?" the voice said, as Carina tried not to notice all the dirt under the bed. Before Royce's mother could answer, the woman continued.
"The big wedding today! Some of the highest ones in the upperclass were getting married, but they found out the bride was replaced with a witch! Luckily, your brave son rescued us all and eliminated the witch..."
At this point, Carina was close to revealing herself, but she managed to stay quiet. Witch? Royce eliminating Aime? This had gone way too far. It was all her fault... The neighbour continued.
"... I don't know what he did to her, but I hope it was something terrible! And now the whole city is looking for the real bride, I think her name was Corina or Carina or something... The poor bridegroom is devostated. He said he wold do anything to get back his little rose!" The woman sounded touched.
Carina was confused.

" I see.." royce's mother responded. She had just repeated that entire sentence through the whole thing.

" Well, i would love to help look, but as you can see, i am bedridden. Unfortunately, you will not find this Carina here." Royce's mother said with a straight face. " Otherwise, you know that i would tell you, Meridith."

if there was ever a thing Royce's mother was good at, it was judging character and lying.

The nieghbor, Meridith, nodded and began to leave turning back and saying quickly " well, if you happen to see anythign at all, you just holler, alright?" Then she was gone.

Carina crawled out on the floor and got up on her feet as soon as the other woman had left.
"What have I done?" she said.
"This is all my fault... I have to find Aime and Royce, but if people are looking for me..."
She sank down to the floor again with her back against the wall. There was nothing she could do but sit there and wait. And she hated it.

"Do not fear, child. I imagine they might return soon. For now, just sit and wait." she replied, coughing into her hand once or twice.

"Knowing Meridith, She'll spread the word, and noone will come 'round this way." Royce's mother nodded knowingly.

"Thank you. That is very kind."
Carina didn't exactly know what she were thanking for, probably everything.
"What's your name, by the way?"
That was very impolite. Talking to the woman for a long time and not even knowing her name, her mother would have decapitated her.
Or, she would have decapitated her anyway, if she even heard Carina was visiting middleclass-people.
Stupid woman.

"My name?" the woman responded, staring at Carina for a short while. " My name is Janine." she responded.

"Why do you ask, child?"

"No real reason.." Carina said, but the question confused her.
Wasn't it normal to ask for a person's name?

"Oh yes, I'd asked yours and then never told you mine. How rude of me." Janine said with a frown. " My apologies. But this sickness must be affecting my head, too."
