Chapter 3

New Chapter Time!!

(I know this picture is the cover picture, but I had to use it. She's so pretty!)

(Let's start the chapter! Lonnie had managed to get Sebastian to take Astrid out on a date before he left. However there was one problem, Astrid's look.)

**Astrid's POV**

Lonnie: "Great, the prince is taking you out, now we just gotta get him to fall for you."

"I can just push him, then he'll fall."

Lonnie: *sigh* "My poor daughter, no he needs to fall in love with you!"

"Ooooh"

Lonnie: "Annnd to do that, you need a makeover, I've made your appointment today, go get ready!"

"Why? I look perfectly fine, why can't he fall in love with me the way I look now?"

Lonnie: "BECAUSE I SAID SO! YOU'RE FAT AND UGLY!"

Lonnie: "Now go!"

"Alright, alright!"

(And Off Astrid went for her makeover. I wish I got a picture of it, I thought I got pictures of it, but I didn't so here's the new ASTRID!"

(Doesn't she look great?)

Eunice: "Oh my evil-ness, Astrid? Is that you? What did you do?"

"Mother forced me to get a makeover. I was against it, but once I saw myself, I kinda like it!"

Eunice: "Why did she make you get a makeover, why couldn't I get one?"

"She wanted me to look hot, so that Sebastian guy will love me."

Eunice: "Do you even like him?"

"Well . . . I don't have to, mother never said I have to fall in love with him"


Eunice: "Don't let mother get you to do something you don't. That's why she didn't choose me to do this scheme or whatever you call it."

"I thought she chose me because I was prettier."


Eunice: "If you were prettier, why she made you get a makeover?"

"It's not that bad, Eunice! I feel like a whole new person."


Eunice: "Okay Astrid, just remember your hurting yourself. Keep listening to mother, your gonna lose yourself."

(After Astrid's sisterly talk with Eunice, she went to their shared bathroom.)


Eunice doesn't know what she's talking about, I can't lose myself. She's just jealous I got the makeover and she didn't.

(Yup, same ol' Astrid.)

(However, while Astrid was in the bathroom, goofing off, Eunice was in her room trying to fix her computer . . . )

(When she lectrocuted herself . . . )

(And started a fire . . . )

(That spread, FAST!)


Eunice: "HELP! MY COMPUTER'S ON FIRE! SOMEONE SAVE IT!"

(Here's the front view of the fire)

Eunice: "Oh no! I'm trapped!"

(Uh ho, death is here, know what that means . . . )


R.I.P. to Eunice Pertridge. Even thought she was HORRIBLE and HATED Ella, deep down . . . deep deep DEEP down, she had a good heart.

(This is the FIRST time Death just chilled in the house. But he just stayed a few sim mins though.)

Lonnie: "It's okay, Astrid! Now you have something to use with Sebastian! Compassion is the way into his heart."

"MOTHER! My sister, your DAUGHTER, just died and all you can think about is my stupid date with Sebastian?"


Lonnie: "Oh no no no sweet child, I'm hurting deeply, but we have to move on. We can't let depression get the best of us."


"I guess you're right . . "


Lonnie: "I AM right, Now go on, you're late for your date."


"Yes mother."

(Astrid left and met Sebastian at a local karaoke bar.)


Sebastian: "Hello Astrid, You look great! What's with the long face?"

"Eunice just died!"


Sebastian: "uhh . . . it's okay, everything will be alright."


"I miss her so much!"

Sebastian: "I'm so sorry, but let me show you a good time. Can you give me a chance to brighten your mood?"


*sniff, sniff* "I guess so"

Sebastian: "Let's go sit down so you can get yourself together before we go inside, Kay?"


"Kay, but first let me thank you for your kindness . . ."

(And she kissed him!)

"Maybe it's just me, but you look like you didn't enjoy that awesome kiss like I did, I mean, I'm a great kisser."


Sebastian: "I did, but my heart belongs to another."

"Another, who?"


Sebastian: "That's the thing, I don't know who she is. Your mother knows her though. She is utterly beautiful, with her bleach blonde hair, her light brown eyes, that innocent smile. She has a serene aura about her."


"Who? Ella?"


Dang it! I said her name! Mother is gonna kill me.


Sebastian: Ella? What a beautiful name!

"Hey, hey, back to reality!"


Sebastian: "Oh, sorry."


"Let's go play some games!"


Sebastian: "Alright."

(While inside, they played some tabletop game. They were having a lot of fun, but something kept nagging at Astrid.)


This guy really loves Ella. Maybe Eunice was right. This doesn't feel right anymore, I can't deny Ella happiness, but I can't make mother angry either. I can't say I love him, because I don't. He's cute and all but he's not my type, he's not CRAZY enough. If I do the right thing, Eunice would have not died in vain. Oh, how I miss her.

(By the end of their date, Astrid had made her decision.)


Sebastian: "I had a wonderful time with you Astrid. You make me feel like a kid again."


"Yea, me too. I want to say something that may or may not end well. I think we should remain friends. It's obvious you love Ella, my sister. My mother didn't tell you who she was or where she lived because she wanted you to fall for me."

Sebastian: "Why would you do such a thing to me?"


"I'm sorry, but after meeting you and hanging with you, I realized I couldn't go through with this. I don't love you, and you clearly love Ella, so I would rather help to young people find love than destroy it.

Sebastian: "Then can you take me to Ella?"


"That's the problem. My mother would never allow it! It would have to be in secret. Let me go home and talk to Ella and see how she feels and I'll call you for a meet up."

Sebastian: "And I can trust you?"


"Yes, I want to find a guy who loves me the way you love Ella."


Sebastian: "Alright, I'll be waiting on your call."


"Great, bye."




(Over at the Vanderburg's house)

(Everything was going great. Catarina had her baby, which she named after Francis. She was happy to have another little girl. However, she missed Francisca so much!)




(Back to the Pertridge's)

(Astrid had returned from her date and the first person she wanted to tell was Ella.)


"Hey Ella, Guess who I went on a date with?"


Ella: "Who?"


"That HOT guy you met at the grocery store?"


Ella: "...oh, how was it?"


"Great, we kissed!"


Ella: "Oh, he must really like you."


"Nope, he really likes you, well I would say LOVES you."


Lonnie: "Must suck to see the guy who loves you, kiss your sister."


Ella: "I love him too."

Lonnie: "What?"


Ella: "I love him too. He's so mysterious, and cute!"


"Well too bad! Go cook something, I'm hungry."


Then I slipped her a note, telling her to meet me outside once mother was fast asleep.


Ella: "Okay, Astrid."


******End of Chapter******


What do you think will happen in chapter 3? Will Astrid get Sebastian and Ella together? Will Lonnie get in the way?

Chapter 2

New chapter time!

**Sebastian POV**

When I got home, I had to tell my mother about the beautiful girl I just saw.

"Mother, I met this beautiful girl at the market. She had blonde hair, a great smile and the most amazing eyes, but I don't know her name."

Catarine: "Why didn't you get her name? Do you at least know where she lives?"

"No mother, I don't. I was about to get her name but some lady came and she left."

Catarine: "What lady? She just left? That's strange? Why didn't you go after her?"

"Oh, just a random lady, she just thought she knew me from somewhere, but didn't. And that girl, she had me tongue-tied before I spoke to her, I wouldn't have been able to follow her nor stop her; my legs were like jello."

Catarina: "Son, You need to find that girl. If she's as lovely as you say, she's perfect to be your wife!"

"Mother! I just met her! Isn't marriage is a bit early? I still don't know her name."

Catarina: "Because your sister is missing, you have to take her place at carrying on the name. You are a prince, don't remember that."

"Mother, please. I know I'm a prince and I know how important it is for me to carry on our family name, but let me handle this."

Catarina: "Okay son, I will. I just want the best for my baby boy. You're all I have now."

"She's still out there. Just have faith."

**Catarina's POV**

"Honey, I think Sebastian's found his wife."

Renauld: "Did he say that? Or is this your opinion?"

"Well . . ."

Renauld: "Honey?!"

"He said he met a very lovely lady, the way he was talking sounded like he wanted to make this girl his wife! So I just said what he didn't"

Renauld: "Honey, you can't force him to marry this girl, that's what ran our baby girl away."

"I know, but I'm genuinely happy for Sebastian, and I promise to let him live his life, but you can't stop me from hoping."

Renauld: "I know, honey, I hope he falls in love too. I hope he can find someone as special as you."

"Renauld Vanderburg, Are you sweet talking me?"

Renauld: "What you think?"

"Oh, Honey! You haven't kissed me like that in years."

Renauld: " Yup, I still got it."

See why you can't compliment men?

Renauld: "Honestly, I love you so much, Catarina. I'm so proud to call you my wife. I love you flaws and all."

"Awe, Honey!"

(The cell phone call ruined the ENTIRE moment)

(I meant to show this on the last chapter, but forgot. So here it is, the Vanderburg house. Catarina running in the corner was a giveaway though.)

(And here is Lonnie Pertridge's house, Astrid and Eunice just live with her. Ella is just a personal butler, well that's how she treats her.)

(The second I got to their house, I got a message saying that Eunice was going to jail, and she ACTUALLY stayed in jail, overnight.)

**Lonnie POV**

"You're sister was hauled off to jail."

Astrid: "Oh, my, How did the hog catch her?"

"HAULED OFF"

Astrid: "Whaaaaat?"

"Oh nevermind! Where is Ella?"

Astrid: "She's making dinner."

"Great, you are gonna need to read up on how to act royally."

Astrid: "Why?"

"For the prince stupid! He's not gonna fall in love with a absent-minded fool like you."

Astrid: "Oh, Isn't he the guy Ella likes?"

"Yes, which is why she can't know who he is?"

Astrid: "Why not? They make a cute couple."

"No! You and him are suppose to get married!"

Astrid: "But what about Ella?"

"What about her? She's not my kid! You are, and you are going to make the prince fall in love with you, make him marry you, you will become a princess and will have access to all his ancestors money."

Astrid: "Great plan mom, wish i would've thought of that."

"That's why you have me as your mother."

**Ella POV**

After yet another night of cooking and cleaning after my so-called family, I got instantly irritated. I've been doing the same stupid routine (cook,wait for them to eat,wash their dishes, then eat) for years now. Tonight, I almost passed out, and Lonnie knew it; she took extra long to eat. She knew I didn't eat nothing all day, she could be real evil sometimes.

(Then, in the middle of her thoughts, she heard a whine from outside.)

"What's that noise?"

(On her way outside, she saw a deer. ^_^)

(And a raccoon)

"Why hello little fella, are you lost?"

Puppy: *whine*

"I don't see a collar, do you have a home?"

Puppy: *whine*

"Well you can be my pup, but you can't make noise. If Lonnie knew I got an animal living in the house, she's have a farm."

Puppy: *wags tail*

"But wait, you need a name! Hmm. . . Uhh. . . How about Tramp! Let's go see your new home."

"There you go Tramp! Go to bed now, it's late."

(And off to bed they went)

(And outside the house, while everyone is sleeping is an Ice Cream Truck . . . Can someone say CREEPY O.O)

**Sebastian's POV**

"Mom, dad! The department gave me a puppy and a promotion!"

"Aren't you such a lady, I think i'll call you lady."

**Catarina's POV**


"I miss her so much."


Renauld off screen: "Honey, it's okay! She's okay!"

"You talked to her?"


Renauld: "No, but I know it in my heart. She's a Vanderburg! She has the survival instincts."

(I thought this was the cutest thing ever ^_^)

Meanwhile, somewhere in the woods . . . 


**Her POV**


As I walked up to my new home, I exhaled. I was finally away from my mother, but I do miss my brother. It's been about a year since I ran away from the pressures of being a princess of a highly respected family, and i'm finally on my feet. 


"Aww, Home Sweet Home."

The first thing I did when I walked into the house, was sleep. After walking for days, and sleeping on rocks and dirt, you would want to sleep too. 

"I'm sorry, Let me introduce myself. My name is Francisca Vanderburg, and my parents are Renauld and Catarina Vanderburg."  

(I wanted to give a better picture of Tramp. Isn't he cute!)

(And when I switched to Lonnie's household, I saw this lady. Yes, she is topless, I don't know how, but she is. And the guy's baby is looking kind of weird.)

**Ella POV**


Today, I went straight home from work to start on dinner. When I finished, I realized I was the only one home. So I thought, if I eat before anyone get home, I'll be straight. But things didn't go that way . . .

Lonnie: "WHAT ON EARTH DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!"


"Nothing"

Lonnie: "So you think I'm stupid? Blind? You were eating that hot dog! Did you forget that WE are suppose to eat before you? Or did you get amnesia?"


"No, I didn't, I just thought if I ate something now, I wouldn't feel so weak when I served you guys. It''s no big deal."

Lonnie: "OOOOHH! No big deal! Someone got guts I see! No one asked you to think, and it's a big deal! You were given an order and you are to follow it! You're a stupid girl! JUST like you're father!"


"I TOLD YOU TO NEVER SPEAK OF MY FATHER!"

Eunice: "Yo, stuperella (Stupid+cinderella)! Watch who you talk to!"


"Don't talk to me Eunice!"

Eunice: "I warned you!"

"I can't take this anymore! I refuse to let you guys mentally,emotionally, and physically beat me down! You guys are EVIL! EVIL I TELL YOU!" 

Eunice: "What you trying to say . . . STUPERELLA!?"


"I'm leaving!"


Eunice: " I can stop that!"


"What you mean?"

Eunice: "AHHHHHH!!"


"Stop Eunice!"

"Where are you Eunice! Bring it on!"


Eunice: "Come here!"

Eunice: "That's what you get!"


Lonnie: "Now if you get outta line and try 'I'm leaving' talk again, you'll get this again! Go to your room!"


Astrid: "I wonder if I can lick my nose . . ."

"Fine! But remember, what goes around comes around!"


Lonnie: "Ohh! We're shaking in our perfect bodies, Go!" 

(Over at the Vanderburg House)


**Catarina's POV**


"BLEEEEH!" Oh my! What's wrong with me? I didn't eat anything out of the ordinary.

I don't know why I threw up, but I'ma take it easy, and go to the doctor later today.

(Isn't Lady a cutie?)

(Here's another look at her!)

After the doctors, I had to tell my family.


"Honey, Sebastian . . . I have something to tell you."


Renauld: "What is it, sweetie?"


"I'm pregnant."


Sebastian: "That's great, mom."


Renauld: "That's great, Honey!"

"You really mean it, Renauld? I mean, we're going to have to raise another child, and Francisca is still missing."


Renauld: "I'm excited! We're going to have another bundle of joy."

Renauld: "Honey, I'll raise 10,000 little bundles of joy all over again, as long as I have you there with me."


"Oh, Renauld! You are the best, I love you!"


Renauld: "I love you too, Love!"

(This is her everyday maternity clothes, -_- and I can't change it =/) 

**Sebastian's POV**


I couldn't believe I was going through with this, but I had to protect my family. All I had to do was take Lonnie daughters out, it's not a date, just an outing. As I rang the door bell and waited, She came out the door! Does she live here? She walked down to me and shook my hand.


Ella: "Nice to see you again?"


What am I suppose to say? I can't believe I'm tongue-tied again. I was stuck gazing into her eyes, my mind was blank.

**Ella's POV**


I couldn't believe he was here. I had to be the first to open the door, but when I spoke, all he did was look at me. Did I have something on my face? Before I was able to say anything else, Lonnie came outside.


Lonnie: " That'll be all, He's my guest! You can leave now, sweetie You can go finish your chores."


I didn't have any chores, but I saw that look on Lonnie's face and knew I should go. 

**Lonnie's POV**


Sebastian: "She lives with you?"


"No, she's here for a visit. I swear to you, she's not what you think. She's a mean-spirited, evil person. Don't worry about her, my daughter is perfect for you."

**Ella's POV**


I wonder what Lonnie has up her sleeve with . . . I don't know his name. Maybe I should go introduce myself.


(Then she heard the sound of a door locking.)


Wait! Who just locked the door!? I'm locked in here! HELP!

**Lonnie's POV**


"Sebastian Vanderburg, I would like to introduce you to Astrid Pertridge, my daughter."

Sebastian: "It's a pleasure to meet you, Astrid."


Astrid: "It's a pleasure to meet me too!"

"Astrid, he's saying it's nice to meet you! say it back!"


Astrid: "Oh, it's very good to meet you too!"


Sebastian thinking: This is not starting off good . . . 

End of Chapter!
