Fallston Prep, Library, Mid-Afternoon

Sophie: *humming*

Eric: That’s a really pretty song. What’s it called?

Sophie: Eric! Hi! Um… it doesn’t have a name. I just made it up.

Eric: I like it. It’s really pretty.

Sophie: Thanks. Doing some studying?

Eric: Yeah. I’ve got a pretty heavy exam coming up in Literature.

Sophie: If you need someone to help you study, I’m more than happy to help. Lit is my favorite subject.

Eric: I’ll keep in mind for the next exam, someone’s already offered to help.

Sophie: Oh. Who?

Grace: Me. I see that you’ve met Eric. My boyfriend.

Sophie: Your… your what?

Grace: My boyfriend. Do you need me to spell it out for you?

Eric: Grace, what are you talking about? I’m not–

Grace: Eric darling, why don’t you wait outside, hmm? That way you don’t get caught in the crossfire.

Sophie: There’s no need. I’ll be leaving you two to yourselves.

Grace: Well. That was easy enough, wasn’t it?

Fallston Preparatory, 10am, 2 Months Later

Sophie: *thinking to herself* Shit, shit, shit, shit

Sophie: So much for arriving early.

????: Holy… are you alright?

Sophie: I am so sorry, I should have been looking where I was going and…

???: It’s alright, I swear. I should have been looking where I was going. At least I wasn’t driving. It’s Sophie, right?

Sophie: Yeah. And you are?

????: I’m Eric. Eric Green.

Sophie: Well, Eric, I’d love to stay and chat, but I am very close to being late for an exam so…

Eric: Oh, I totally get it. See you around.

Fallston Prep, Noon, Between Periods

Grace: There’s my favorite princess…

Sophie: Whatever the hell it is you want, no.

Grace: You haven’t even heard what I want to say.

Sophie: Fine. What?

Grace: I’d like to bring Eric as my plus one. It’d be a perfect time to introduce him to the rest of our family. I know that they’d love to meet him.

Sophie: I didn’t know that you were in charge of inviting people, Grace.

Grace: For my side of the family, yes. I am.

Sophie: RSVPs have already come back. Even if Eric wanted to come, he couldn’t. Everything’s already set in stone and the last thing I want is to stress the bride out even more.

Grace: And who are you to be telling me that? You’re not the bride.

Sophie: I know. I’m not. But I am the maid of honor and the bride is my sister. I’m also the one who helped Ana and Douxie run through the invitation list to see who would get a plus one. Last I checked, you didn’t get one.

Grace: Did you?

Sophie: No. I was offered one, but I turned it down.

Grace: Well, why not add on your plus-one, hmm?

Sophie: The wedding is this week. I’m not putting my sister through any more stress so that you can live your fairytale dreams.

Grace: You…

Sophie: What? Just because you’re a future Duchess doesn’t mean that your wants supersede my sister’s.

Fallston Prep, After First Period, 10am

Grace: Eric, right? Eric Green?

Eric: Yeah, that’s me. And you are?

Grace: You’re joking, right? Everyone at this school knows who I am.

Eric: I just transferred here from Exeter for my dad’s job. I haven’t met a lot of people here yet.

Grace: Oh. I see. Well, if you want to get to know the area around here and meet some new friends, I’m more than happy to show you.

Eric: You… you’re from here?

Grace: Naturally. My father, James, is the King’s cousin, the Duke of Eisley. I’m next in line.

Eric: Sure. Why not?

Grace: Great! I’ll see you after classes, meet me by the main entrance. I’ll show you everything.
