Princess Alessandra @alessandraofnarnia - Tumblr Blog

"A few things that a young lady possibly shouldn’t hear." And that would most likely land him in trouble with her father and brothers. He had seen how well Ian and Leon could wield a sword and he didn’t wish to meet them at the other end. "Getting your feet stepped on is actually one of the nicer things that can happen." A faint chuckle left Jovan’s lips however as he added, "Aye, I have and I’m certain more will do the same. But there is nothing wrong with that." It was possibly the reason why other maidens stepped on his feet while dancing.

"No, it’s alright. I can fetch the drinks. It wouldn’t look right to send the lady to fetch them either." Smiling a bit more he then asked, "What would you wish to have?"

She scoffed and then merely rolled her eyes. Why did everyone feel the need to protect her because she was a 'young lady'? “I'm not that young,” She replied as she moved her hand to her neck and began to scratch at her very lightly freckled skin. All Alessandra wanted was a decent conversation – she didn't want to dance, not really, not when that could lead to her having to dance with more than just one person.

“Wine would suit me,” She smiled as she looked at him. “It's what I usually have,” Or well, what she would usually have when her parents would allow it of her. Usually her mother would take the glass out of her hand and then make sure that she was sticking on more... child friendly beverages, regardless of whether she was of age now or not.

"It would seem your partner has left you now," he commented as watched Moira run off. "You could have worse done to you while dancing though." Jovan would have welcomed his feet being stepped on over some of the other things he had encountered while dancing. Flirting and inappropriate touching were a few things on that list.

A small scoff left his mouth before he drained his goblet. “I’m certain they’ll live, like every other time I’ve decided not to dance with someone.” He couldn’t exactly say how many times he had sit of dancing at a party. A smile appeared on Jovan’s face upon hearing her laugh though. “Another drink would be fine but I can fetch it myself.” It would be rude to make a lady such as her do it for him.

“Like what? Nothing could be worse than the state my poor feet are in now,” She laughed as she glanced down at her shoes, all scuffed and ruined from the way that Moira had trotted all over them. Alessandra then lifted her head and smiled at Jovan. “I’m sure you’ve had many a girl stepping on your toes. If they’re anything like me, anyway… I get caught up in the music and not watch what I’m doing.” Something her father says she gets from her mother – her love for music.

Alessandra hadn’t been asked to dance this time around – maybe it was because everyone could see she was busy with Moira; or it could have been because of the fact that her father had warned them off ,who knew, she might have liked it, but she’d deal without. “I have to get myself a drink; I don’t mind getting you one too.” Besides he was a guest at the Narnian party, and she was someone who lived there, it made sense, right?

"Unfortunately I can’t say if I am or not as I don’t have siblings." He glanced down at the Alessandra’s little ward before looking back the princess. Taking another drink from his goblet, he smiled a bit more at her. This was definite better than keeping to himself.

"You’re not missing much," he said through a chuckle. Having been to many and even hosted just as much, he appreciated when he could hide himself away. At her question, he smiled a bit more and shook his head. "Had my fill of dancing for the time being." Though when she commented that the women were eyeing him, he did take a quick glance around. She was certainly right about that but then Jovan didn’t doubt her. He was still a bachelor after all. The fact that he was still not married was a bit of a problem but his father had given him the chance to find the wife he desired instead of forcing one on him.

“Well all that my dance partner has done,” She tilted her head to look at Moira once more, “Has stepped on my feet.” And she wasn’t that great a dancer herself – so the fact that Moira was stepping on her feet said something. However, through her watching she saw that her young ward had went off to her mother and therefore Alessandra let out a small sigh. “Thank Aslan.” No she could actually do what she wanted to do. She could either go into the castle and be by herself, or she could actually try and get some enjoyment out of this party. “All the broken hearts of tonight,” She laughed as she turned back to Jovan. “Have you had your fill of drinking too or can I get you another?” And maybe now that Robyn and Moira were reunited she could actually have her own.

A light chuckle left his mouth before he raised his goblet and took another drink of wine. From the few times he had talked to Ian he knew that his daughter could cause a bit of trouble. He did feel sorry for Alessandra since she was the one playing babysitter to her. Watching her handle the child was making Jovan somewhat glad he didn’t have siblings. It was a bit lonely growing up but he at least didn’t have to worry about babysitting.

"Is there a reason not to enjoy one self at a Narnian party?" he asked with another laugh. Waving his hand to wave off his comment, he then added, "Yes, quite so. Your family knows how to celebrate."

“Maybe when you’re not particularly fond of it,” She replied as she made sure to look out for Moira. The last thing she needed was for the very quick footed princess to get away and then her to get into trouble for losing her, or y’know the child to get hurt and then Alessandra having to tend to her, get in trouble for her getting hurt… or just get in trouble period. “Yes, they do,”

Alessandra smiled, “Partying was never my strong suit, I’ve always been the wallflower.” Never asked to dance, because she’s never wanted it. But, then it could still possibly be because of her father keeping an eye on her and the boys that might have wanted her to dance. Right now she could have done with being cuddled under some fur blankets and reading a book by the log fire. She knew that wasn’t going to happen anytime soon so she should just enjoy her time talking to Jovan. “And you – you are not dancing? There are many women with their eye on you.”

Jovan watched the youngest Narnian princess. He didn’t know the Narnia royal family all that well. He knew King Caspian and his consort due to being present for meetings his father had. He knew Prince Ian for the same reason. But the younger siblings he didn’t normally have the chance to talk to them. Either he was busy talking to others or he was away on business whenever there was some sort of gathering.

"Being the handful is she?" he asked, thinking it was best to make some small talk. Though he wished to be left alone he didn’t think it would all that bad to talk to her. She possibly wouldn’t fawn over him like the other ladies.

Alessandra looked at Jovan; her attention fully taken – though she knew she would have to return to her business of looking after Moira the moment that she was done with this conversation. “You could say that,” She mused as a light rosy dust tinted her already reddened cheeks. She had never been that good with talking to people as it was – she was always known for keeping her nose in a book. That was most likely why people always imagined her to be younger than she was – that and because her father had yet to try and marry her off. They always supposed that she was too young for that. No, King Caspian was just very proud and possessive of his ‘baby girl’, much like Queen Arista had been of the youngest son, Cornelius. “Are you enjoying yourself?” She asked the Archenland Prince before turning to see where Moira had gotten to.

He was a little surprised when he was sent to this wedding by himself. His father was meant to make an appearance, it was for the wedding of one of his father’s lords and a princess of Narnia after all, but his father seemed to have made other plans. He was old and reaching the end of his reign so Jovan could let it go a little. He only wished that no one else thought poorly of him.

Leaning more against the pillar, watched the party-goers interact with one another. He already congratulated the married couple and socialized with a few of the other people. But right then Jovan was fine being by himself.

It honestly shouldn’t have come to any surprise that her family were treating her like a child and that was why she was told to look after Moira. How, by Aslan, Robyn or Ian couldn’t have done it themselves was beyond her. It was a little unfair. Alessandra wanted to enjoy the festivity. She wanted to do more than just dance with the child – or pay a look in on her infant young nephew now that he had been born too. She just wanted to dance, or go back to her books; nothing here interested her. She knew if she was to dance then her father would either want her to dance with him, or someone he assigned, most likely someone already married so that she didn’t get any ideas.

“Go and get yourself a drink, Moira.” She replied as she moved and nudged her towards the table so that she could grab something to drink. Alessandra sighed and glanced down, this was completely boring. Why did everyone just treat her like she was no more than fourteen? She was nearly twenty years old; they were just going too far now. Even Cornelius was getting taught how to sail and would be on his first voyage next week!

Where was she? When Alessandra said she would be right back Caspian thought she had meant just that. She had taken so long that he had begun to doze off and only woke up when he heard her footsteps draw closer to him. Rubbing one of his eyes to try and wake himself up, he looked at the two boxes she placed in front of him. A smile appeared on his face as he leaned forward and kissed her cheek. “Thank you, Sunshine.”

She hadn’t meant to keep him, she also didn’t think it was that late that her father would begin to fall asleep on her! Still, she pulled her lower lip into her mouth and looked at him as he then kissed her cheek and thanked her for the boxes she placed in front of him. “You’re welcome, Daddy.” Alessandra moved to sit on her father’s lap and then pulled one of the boxes, which held a couple of wooden sculptures that she had asked her uncle Tobias to carve for her. One resembled the Dawn Treader and the other was a mermaid.

The king’s brow knitted slightly but he settled back in his chair and nodded his head. “Very well, I’ll stay here.” Why she wanted him to do that he didn’t understand but he was curious as to what she was up to.

She was actually a while. Alessandra had gotten the father’s day presents for her father already together. But, she had just forgotten that today was Father’s Day. Running back to the library where she had left him, she pulled together her dress as she nearly tripped over it and stumbled into the room. “Back,” The youngest princess gasped as she scuttled over to him and placed two boxes onto his table before him. “Happy Father’s Day, Daddy.”

"You certain?" he asked, not quite convinced. "You seem worried about something."

alessandraofnarnia

“No, Daddy. I’m not worried;” The small brunette gave a squeak as she made her way towards the exit of the room, turning back to her father. “I’ll be right back – don’t move.”
