It is a little unseemly for a maid to stare at her princess as one sleeps. Especially hand on cheek with a big smile and a contented sigh. But this princess really is such a cute one.
When she first carried morning tea into her princess' chambers Lenora was all nerves. Despite being assured by other maids this princess was not at all one she had to hide away in fear of, previous negative experience with royalty had the sweet blonde maid avoiding personal attendant duties until she simply couldn't get around them any longer.
One glance of the peacefully resting catgirl and Lenora felt terribly foolish. It's ridiculous to think this is the person she felt the need to always scurry away from the last several months.
This one's ears look nice and soft…
The maid startles slightly when the princess stirs. It's now past time to rouse this one. For a second those old anxieties shoot through her again.
Get a hold of yourself Lenora, you've had plenty of experience by now, put it to use!
With a quick breath, a brushing of her apron and adjustment of her glasses, the maid finally speaks.
“Your highness, it's time for you to wake.”
The princess' first sight of the day would be a charming smile and bright green eyes.
“Or, has been time for a while now. I saw fit to wait since your schedule is light and you looked so comfortable! But we can't let your tea go cold, can we?” she whispers playfully.
