When Royalty Collides ~Closed~

Meenakshi Banerjee

"Of course you can call me Meena, I prefer to be called as such. Meenakshi might be a mouthful to some." Meena smiled in return, nodding along as she listened to Amun. It was a relief to Meena that she had found someone that she could get along with, and it was a bigger bonus that said person was the one she was to be married to. She was prepared to be engaged to someone whom she'd dislike, and to see that that wasn't going to happen, she was more than happy.

"Far better than you expected? I'm glad I'm not the only one to think of this situation that way." Meena laughed. Again, she was happy that he at least liked her in return.

This could prove to be quite a good match.

Before the conversation could continue, the Princess of Aciras had invited all the attending royals to breakfast. Good timing too, because Meena could feel the emptiness of her stomach, and she knew it wouldn't be too long before it would cause her embarrassment. The Princess pressed her palm into her mouth, trying to muffle a giggle as Amun offered his arm. Meena took his arm, carefully linking the two before she began following the other royal children - if they could even be called that anymore - towards the table, dragging Amun behind her.

Rather than sitting down, Meenakshi stopped just before the table, turning to face Amun. "Um, well, do you mind sitting beside me? This might be a good opportunity for us to get to know each other, but if you want to sit with someone else, I don't mind." She asked. Meena thought it would be more polite for her to ask what he wanted, rather than just assume that he'd sit beside her.

The answer might've been obvious, but it didn't hurt to ask.

CLOSED.

@HushedWhispers Question, are all the seniors going to be pretty much in the same home room class at the beginning? Trying to figure out exactly how to introduce Lucky.

CLOSED.

Typing up a post while on my phone is next to impossible, but the coding is just hell.

I'll introduce Lucky later, he'll probably be a bit late since he's the new kid.

CLOSED.

Time: 6:30 am - 7:20 am
Location: Arnette Residence & Beverly Hills High
Interacting With: Domi @HushedWhispers

Breathe in.

Analise blinked, trying to keep herself awake by breathing into the nebuliser carefully. Breathing in the cocktail of antibiotics, pain suppressors and God-knows what else was never the best way to wake up. She sat on her bed, darkness covering each corner of her room as the blinds did it's best to shut out any sunlight.

Breathe out.

She breathed in the misty cocktail, feeling the medication travel from her mouth and directly down to her lungs, working on the mucus that had built up while she was sleeping last night. A gentle knock on her door made Analise turn ever so slightly, the girl wishing she could smile as her mother opened the door and slipped inside, as if she were creeping in like a thief while Winston followed behind her. Georgina greeted her daughter with a charming smile, running her hand gently over her head.

"Good morning, sweetheart." Georgina knew that Analise wasn't in a position to respond, instead went over to her window to slide the curtains open. Analise winced as the bright light filled the once dark room, the girl's eyes immediately shutting before she could feel the sudden light burn her eyes. Analise heard her mother chuckle from her left, feeling the bed dip beside her as Georgina sat down.

"My baby girl is growing up! It's her first day of senior year!"

Anna looked at her mother from the corner of her eyes, blinking twice. The peaceful morning now broken by her mother's excited comment. 'Really? Why are you more excited for the first day than me?' The girl thought.

Her mother waved her hand, continuing on as if Analise had responded. "Why can't I be excited? You're growing up." If Analise could sigh, she would've done so. She understood what her mother's words meant. Analise should've succumbed to her condition at the age of seventeen. Now here she was, sitting on her bed on the first day of senior year, age eighteen. Analise leaned into her mother, nudging her mother slightly before Georgina hummed and moved to turn off the machine. With the machine off, Anna carefully moved the tube out of her mouth, inhaling deeply before letting out a sharp cough.

'Now comes the disgusting part.' The girl rushed to her on-suite, hovering over the sink as she coughed out the built up mucus. Once done, Analise bent down to wash her face with cold water, waking her up instantly. She brushed her teeth before leaving the bathroom, still dabbing her face with a towel, returning to a now empty bedroom.

She walked over to her armchair, that already had clothes laid out for her. Analise had picked out her clothes last night, packing her bag and anything that she needed in preparation for the first day of school. Slipping on her clothes, Analise slipped her phone inside her bag before heading towards the vanity table, where she applied the usual makeup: heavily defined eyes with a light coating of pink lipstick. She brushed her already curly hair, satisfied by her slightly 'ruffled' look. Analise grinned at herself in the mirror, pulling her bag behind her as she left her bedroom.

Sometime around seven, Analise's phone buzzed inside her bag, forcing the girl to fish it out to check the message.

From: Domi

I am getting ready 2 head 2 school. 1 of u better b at our spot. :*

Analise smiled, quickly typing out a response.

To: Domi

I'm leaving now, be there in 20 ^^

Nodding to herself, the girl grabbed her car keys from the bowl beside the front door. "I'm going to school, love you!" Analise yelled, letting her voice echo through the halls as she quickly opened the door and slipped outside. She slid into her car, throwing her bag and phone to the passenger-side before starting up the car.

As promised, twenty minutes later, Analise arrived at the school. She parked her car at the allocated spot, before sliding out of the car with her bag dangling dangerously from her elbow. Analise could see Dominique already standing at their usual clique spot, waiting with a basket of muffins. She pushed her bag up higher over her shoulder, raising her other hand up into the air as she waved towards the waiting Queen Bee. "Good morning Domi!" The girl called, jogging towards Domi. "Were you waiting long?"

Growing Up | It's Anything But Simple

@HushedWhispers@Lady Amalthea I just want to say that my mother is in hospital right now so I don't know when my next post will be. I'll try to keep up with whatever is going on IC/OOC but I can't promise any posts.

Growing Up | It's Anything But Simple

@Universorum Oh I know, so far she's getting quite a bit of attention from Connor

not that she minds or anything

Growing Up | It's Anything But Simple

@Universorum Still a special day nonetheless

Growing Up | It's Anything But Simple

@AewinConnor's new game plan for the night:
1. serenade eva
2. announce his surprise
3. dance with eva
4. take eva home

and that's that basically.

@Universorum

this seems more like Eva's birthday than Nat's lmao

Growing Up | It's Anything But Simple

@Universorum LOL the girl dies at the sight of Connor's sprite, of course him serenading her will have the desired effect
