Gray-
I watched as the um, um...I do not remember her name, I have a horrible memory. I remember the other servant called out her name but I do not seem to remember. The girl took Will's arm and followed him to his horse.

Her lovely smile shone as she watched him get on his horse. Susan's mane flickered and she waited patiently for both of them to get on.

A pang of jealousy hit me as my heart burned in my chest. What is wrong with me? She is a servant!

"She is pretty is she not?" The Queen said mischievously.

Is that a smirk?

"Who your Majesty?" I asked quickly trying to avoid the conversation.

I stood in front of Susan, "Whoa there Susan," I brought my hand hand slowly to her head, "Calm down. Calm, it is okay Susan, it is okay."

"Yeah, I am great," he said," Nice stopping the horse Gratholomeal," Will said snickering.

She covered her mouth to stop from laughing, I felt my face turn red in embarrassment.

"I said my name was Gray you idiot!" I shouted at Will.

Gabriela burst out laughing, she could not stop. I blushed, even her laugh is beautiful. The way she scrunches her nose and closes her eyes is so adorable. I hope I can see her laugh that way again.

"I'm sorry, it's just your name is so cute, Gratholomeal, why is that name so cute," she said trying to stop her laughter.

My heart ached, she thinks my name is...cute?
