THE HEIR TO THE THRONE

BACK TO UK FOREVER

LATER 

IN THE UK 

William: it's nice to see you again baby, how was the trip? 

I:  fine, even if my parents made me come with a military escort

William: It's normal but think about the fact that you've arrived

Zara: you are more beautiful in person than in photos

I: hi, do i know you? 

William: ah, introductions, leonor she is my cousin zara, zara she is my girlfriend leonor

I: nice to meet you zara 

Zara: i really don't understand how you came to fall in love with william, you're much prettier than him 

William: ah, zara i heard you, in any case leonor you can stay at zara's house

I: sure? i do not want to bother you 

Zara: don't worry , no disturb 

I: well then i'm sure the two of us will have fun

Zara: we will definitely have fun, i'll leave you two alone, i'll take your bags to the car

I: thanks 

William: you'll soon become an adult too, how do you feel?

I: excited, even if when i have to swear on the constitution, i don't know if my grandmother will be able to come and see me and not ask me why because it's complicated

William: okay, i won't 

I: have you heard from kate and fergus? i know that elizath is studying at the brussels military academy

William: kate and fergus are still traveling and will be back in a few weeks

I: can we go now? i'm a little tired from the trip

William: sure, come on 

Zara: okay, now that you're here where are we going?

William: first we'll stop in kensington for a moment if that's okay with you

I: still having problems with your brother?

William: yes, but now our problems are always there, but that's not why we stop in kensington, i want to show you something

AT KENSIGTON 

Harry: hi leonor, so what the newspapers say is true? you moved here but you will continue to return to spain for the military course and for official events

I: yes, it's all true 

Harry: and where will you stay? i don't think you'd like to stay in the house with me, william, our dad and dad's wife

William: she will stay at zara's house

Harry: oh right,  the favorite cousin, you told her but not me

I: boys , please

William: harry, are you looking for an excuse to argue? why don't you go back to your room? like you always do

Harry: you're doing everything dear brother, why don't you take your girlfriend away before she sees something she shouldn't see?

I: will, he's  right, let's go

IN HIS ROOM 

I: i see things seem to be getting worse day by day

William: yeah, sorry you had to see that baby

I: don't worry, how are you?

William: let's say it could be better

I: even last time we talked about it, you told me so, listen i don't want to meddle in your business, but if there's something i can do, let me try

William: thanks for being here for me, but there's nothing you can do

I: whatever you want, let's change the subject, you still haven't told me what we're doing here

William: right, i was about to forget

I: so, what is it? 

William: think of it as an early gift for your 18th birthday

I: are you crazy? your mother's engagement ring?

William: i kept it waiting for a woman worthy of my mother to wear it, now that i've finally found her, i don't want to let her slip away

I: will, that is indeed a very nice thought of you and i would like to accept it but.....

William: but what? 

I: does harry agree? considering the relationship between you two over the past few months, i don't want to complicate things

William: things between me and him are already complicated

I: yes i know, but it's one thing to argue over a misunderstanding or something like that and it's another thing to give your mother's engagement ring to your girlfriend

William: don't worry, when our mother died, all her belongings were given to me and harry, obviously more to me because i'm the firstborn

I: are you sure?

William: of course i am, otherwise if i weren't, i wouldn't have given it to you, don't you think?

I: well then in this case, i'm happy to accept it

William: i'm so happy, maybe i'm about to  ask too much of you

I: well if you don't ask me, you'll never find out

William: i know i can't come to your birthday, but i would be happy if you wore this ring, so it will be a bit as if i were there with you

I: sure, but it is a ring that certainly attracts a lot of attention, journalists and everyone would immediately notice it

William: i know, and this is another thing i wanted to talk to you about

I: well if it's as exciting as this surprise you gave me, then don't hesitate to say so

William: i was thinking that we've been together for 3 years now, i think it's time to make it public if you're ready

I: yes, i'm ready but it would be better to wait until after my birthday, what do you think?

William: it's perfect, now last thing and then i promise i won't stress you out again for a while

I: impossible, but tell me

William: before making it public, we will have to communicate it to our families, perhaps with a dinner, okay?

I: yes, just maybe a few days before making it public

Zara: have you finished lovebirds?

William: yeah, zara don't worry 

Zara: It's getting late, better go home

I: yeah, right 

William: see you tomorrow then 

I: yeah, see you tomorrow
