John was up earlier then any of the servants as usual. He always made sure he set a good example and made up his bed all nice and neat. Not a crinkle anywhere in the sheets. That was the first thing in his morning routine. Next was to dress. He slipped on his uniform on; a sleek white shirt pressed firm and in good condition. A black vest over that shirt with matching shoes and pants. The final touch was a pocket watch he kept in the breast pocket. Now that he was all dressed and ready to start his day. John quickly used the servant quarter kitchen to fix him a quick breakfast. A small bowl of oatmeal and some milk. Once he finished he set all the dishes aside and checked his watch. It was just ten minutes after six. Soon he would need to go wake up her highness. It had been a few months sense he was promoted to her personal butler. Most of his family would see his position as disgraceful and no place for one of their kind. Ones that use to rule over the world, but for John he felt this was honest way to live. Yet he still had a few moments of pride that comes with being a dragon, but luckily he hid his true self very well. He shook his head and snapped out of his thoughts and knew it was time to start the day.
John left the servants quarters that was right next to the massive palace that caught the dawning sun’s rays just right the whole building seemed to shine and cast even more light that shined down on the perfectly pedicured garden and grounds of the palace. Once he came to the servants in trance he checked himself and made sure everything was right on him and when he stepped inside he greeted the guards and gathered a few things. Mainly his little notepad he used to keep track of the daily ongoing and to make notes. Soon John was walking down the hall to the Princess’ room. He still didn’t understand why she asked for him specifically to be her personal butler, but hey he got to be close to the royal family and see their activities up close. Once he reached the door he cleared his throat causing a small puff of smoke to come forth. He sighed and swiped the smoke away before knocking firmly on the door then entering.
” My lady it is time to rise and start the day. We can’t have the future queen lay in bed all morning.”
He barely paid the girl in the bed any attention as he began to draw the curtains causing the light to suddenly flood the room and almost on command to maids entered the room and began to set up her chaing area. How easy it must have been to be royalty to have people do some much for you and all you had to do was be able to get up and let them dress you. This thought made John chuckle to himself. Before checking his pocket watch again and saw it was now six-thirty. He clicked his tounge and shook his head smiling slyly.
“ I’ll guess I’ll just tell his majesty that his daughter didn’t feel like being seen today. So she has opted to stay in bed.”
