"Never mind..'Anella said quickly."I'm going to go..to the stables."She hoped that would be a good place to find what she was looking for.

"All right. Good luck with your it." Rose said, deciding to go and bother Markus about Roy.

Anella walked briskly untill she reached the stables, and stopped looking around in awe. The stalls were about as big as her house, and tack with silver and gold inlays hung on every stall. she looked around for signs of life besided horses, but she couldn't spot anyone.

"A guy told you that? A guy?" Raythor said, grinning. "That's hilarious." "Yeah, Rose didn't get how disturbing this is." Markus said. "How could she, she's a girl?" "Are you two talking about me?" Rose asked. "Not in a flattering way." Raythor said. "I was just on my way out, but I had to laugh at Markus first because he's such a great guy." "I'm going to regret telling people this, I can tell." Markus said.

Anella suddenly heard hammering not far away. 'that must be the farrier.' She thought, walking toward it. She reached a little room where she saw a man pounding a horseshoe into shape. "Um...hello.."She said uncertinely. He looked up, clearly wondering what someone like her was doing there.

"Yeah, you are." Raythor said cheerfully. "See you guys, I'm going for a walk." "Why are you so happy today?" Rose asked. "I don't know, I don't have a boyfriend." "Shut up..." Markus said.

"I was um..wondering umm....."She felt silly with him staring at her "If you have any, um..stable boy clothes that are too small for them now?" Now he was looking at her like she was crazy, and she just stood there uncomfortably. "Sure.."He said after a minute."What kind?" "Oh...um a tunic and..whatever you wear under a tunic." He raised his eyebrow at her, and then went shuffling through what looked like a tack box full of rags. "Here."He said throwing two garments at her"The one with long sleves goes under the other one, then you can take it off if you get to warm." "T-thank you.-"Anella said "Not done yet."he said gruffly.He threw something else at her that looked like leggings "And those are what you wear under a tunic." "O-oh well..thank you so much." "Sure." he said still looking at her like she was slightly crazy.She turned to leave"Wait."He said suddenly"There's one more thing."

"Good morning Markus," Laura said, coming in just as Raythor left. "Why do you look so distressed? You just got out of your lifetime obligation." "A guy told me he had a crush on me," Markus said, without thinking, "Which I have to stop telling people." "Was it Roy?" "Yeah..." "That's kind of funny. He always looks at you in this sort of adoring way." "Even you, Laura." Markus said, throwing up his hands. "Sorry, my prince." Laura said cattishly, and Rose giggled. "Wait... I have to go stop Raythor from disappearing for the rest of the day." Rose said suddenly. "Why?" Markus asked, confused. "I can't tell you that, it's a secret." She replied, hurrying from the room. Markus and Laura looked at each other and shrugged.

"take these."He said handing her a pair of knee high riding boots."They used to be the princes, but they are much too small now, and to old. They're good boots, though." "T-thank you."Anella said taking them. He shrugged and waved her off. She hurredly left the room and walked down the aisleway. She stopped at a empty stall, thinking for a second before walking into it. It seemed like a good place to change to see if everything fit, as long as no one walking in on her. She quickly pulled on the tunic and leggings, hanging her dress on the side of the stall. She tied the tunic with a small peice of leather the farrier had given her. It was about the length of a short drerss on her, and it fit perfectly. She felt strange with nothing covering her legs as she pulled on the boots. They were a dark soft leather, and fit well too. it felt wierd to her that they were once Markus'.

"Raythor!" Rose called. The dark haired boy, already some distance away, looked back with confusion. "What, Rose?" Raythor called back. "You have to come and uh..." "And what?" "Teach me how to read." "You already know how to read." "Just come over here."

Anella walked quickly up the castle steps, holding her dress in her arms. She tried to remember the last place she had seen Rose and Markus. Finally she remebered and half jogged half walked to the spot, stopping when she saw the small group of people standing there.

"Isn't that Anella?" Rose said, with forced casualness. Raythor walked over, sighing. "It isn't the queen of Caltha." He said sarcastically. Then he took a second look at her. "Is that Anella?" "Yeah, she was saying something about getting new clothes." Rose said with a shrug.

Anella shuffled over nervously to greet them, not loking at Raythor at all "H-hello."She said very quietly.

"You... uh... changed clothes." Raythor said awkwardly. "Oh, did she really?" Rose said, glaring at him.

"I-I um...thought that these would be...um better for...traveling like-like we do."She crindged from the awkwardness of what she was saying, still unable to look at Raythor.
