Chapter 18

"Wait what?" I glance at him swiftly, sure I haven't heard him correctly.
"We are being followed," He repeats in a settled tone.
"Err... pardon me, but how can you be so calm about this?" I turn to look at the road behind us.
"It's just a little detour princess, you'll get to work on time," He rolls his eyes.
What is his problem?
"Who was that on the phone?"
"Harrison," Niall answers a slight twitch to his lips.
"Excuse me- does this seem funny to you?" I accuse him.
"It's nothing Elena, please calm down," He chuckles.
"How is this nothing? And don't call me that!" I snap.
"It's only the paps.. At least that is what Harrison says."
"Who is he?"
"Head of security," Niall replies.
"What is head of security doing in England and how would he know?"
"The prince and princess are here so queen Eva demanded of him to accompany.. He is watching security cameras.. That is how he knows."
I lean back in my seat, this being too much for me.
Niall speaks into his ear piece again, however, this time I ignore him, watching the landscape out the window change as we inch closer to London. There are police outside the office, not letting news or paps come close. I am accompanied to the front door, followed in only by Niall. At the corner I am grabbed, making Niall pull out his gun and hold it up with two hands.
"Chill!" Harry pushes me behind him, holding up his hands in front of Niall.
"It is only me, put that thing away."
"I can arrest you for that," Niall hisses at him, putting the gun back into its holder at his hip.
"For hugging my girl? I don't think so," Harry furrows his brows at him.
"For grabbing the princess," Niall corrects him.
"Alright you two, time out," I hold a hand up to Harry's chest. He covers it with his own smiling down at me.
"How are you?" He leans down to kiss my cheek. I groan shyly, swooning over the fact Harry called me his girl, and acting as if we are a long lasting couple, liking the attention from him.
"Come, I'll walk you to the studio," He wraps an arm around my shoulders.
"Oh thank you for getting clothes over to me last night- good call," I remember.
"Yeah, Zoe rang me worried.. So we got talking about the best ways to help with this whole fiasco, and I remembered you had nothing with you.. I’m surprised she didn't pack you long dresses and sorts," Harry eyes my ordinary outfit- black jeans and a white button down shirt.
"You're right.. Maybe your talk made her choose wisely," I giggle.
"What's so funny?" Lila questions as we enter.
"Good morning," I smile, letting my hand bag fall to the desk.
"You're in a good mood today- I hope it stays that way- there is a long list of important things we must get done," She holds out a printed email with tasks from Taylor, Anne's assistant.
"Finally normality," I sigh happily.
The phone rings. I check the ID and glance at Harry.
"It's the photo shoots line," I say taking the call.
"Hi," I answer.
"Ellie? I was told you're taking some time off," Mia replies with a surprised voice.
"Over rated," I roll my eyes.
"I feel I haven't seen you for ages!" She exclaims in happiness.
"Yeah.. a lot has happened," I agree.
"Well we must have a sit- catch up.. Is Harry there? He is late again and we cannot push this off any longer," she gets to the point of the call.
"He is most definitely, I'll come up with him to say hello," I let out a chuckle.
It feels like always, as if nothing changed and this is the way I like it.
"You're late mister.. Come I'll walk you," I turn to Harry, frowning playfully.
Harry laces his fingers with mine, which is not missed by Lila, a proud smirk appearing on her lips.
Niall follows quietly after us and I can't help but wonder how is it he is still on his feet with his line of work, standing outside my door for the whole night and such.
"Hiya gorgeous," Mika is the first one to notice us.
"Why hello- I wish I could say the same about you," Harry is quick to reply.
"Not talking about you hairball, but the pretty princess on your arm," Mika hugs me, sending an air kiss my way so she doesn't ruin her lipstick.
"Ellie what a surprise!" Carlos and Mia follow swiftly.
"Gosh it feels I haven't seen you lot in ages!" I repeat what I've told Mia.
"You have a lot on your plate my dear," Mia notes.
"Mmmm.. I'll try and come back later, enjoy," I tell them turning to leave. Harry tugs at my arm, making me turn to look at him. He leans to kiss my cheek before letting me go.
I head back to the studio walking beside Niall.
"Aren't you tired?" I inquire.
"Why would I be?"
"Well were you not up all night?"
"No.. You had a different tail outside your bedroom door," He says.
"Oh."
I sit at my desk falling in to work. Everything was quite as normal except some phone calls with people who knew Princess Elena worked for 'In Style' and wanted to know how she's like. So I had to pretend to be Lila, changing the subject swiftly, and making Lila laugh.
At about 13:00 Zoe appears at the door, immediately going into a long explanation about her date with the hot lad who she works with his sister.
"How did you two meet?" Lila questions.
Zoe eyes me before waving her off with her hand saying it was just outside the office. We ordered in since Zoe claimed the front is full of reporters and I didn't feel like getting ambushed.
We are joined by Harry, Mika and Mia turning the lunch break into a little party.
"We should do this more often! Why have we never eaten like this before? All together?" Mika asks.
"Because you never usually eat," Harry scoffs, getting a swat in return.
"Elena- you have a call," Niall offers me the mobile. I pull a face, hearing him call me by that name, taking the mobile out of his out stretched hand, already knowing who it might be on the other end.
"Elena, there is a car waiting for you out back, it will drive you to the police station for questioning about the Clarks," He states.
"You mean my parents Liam, there is nothing to ask, and I'm in the middle of my lunch break which means this will need to wait," I say agitatedly.
"Ellie, please don't make this harder then what it is," He notes. I let out a sigh and hang up the call on him.
"I hate my life," I mutter under my breathe. The mobile buzzes again and Niall answers. After a short 'yes sir' he ends it and turns to me.
"We leave now," He orders.
"You do not order me around," I snap getting up from my seat. However, I am still facing my friends.
Before I have a chance to say anything I am lifted off my feet and thrown over a shoulder.
"Put me down!" I scream, my friends are up as well calling. Harry is right next to me, pulling at Niall's arm, while holding on to my arm so I don't fall.
"Put her down! I will only ask once," He demands.
In return, Niall pulls out his gun.
"Please step aside," He suggests.
"She isn't happy! Let her down," Harry demands again not fazed by the gun pointed at him.
"I'm following orders," Niall remarks.
"I'll come if you put me down," I kick in the air.
Niall puts back the gun and lets me down. Once both of my feet are placed on the ground and my balance returns, I brush my hair out of my face and slap his cheek, a gasp sounds from the mouths of my friends.
"If you ever do that to me again!" I warn him. I turn to Harry a smirk painted on his face.
"Do you want me to join you?"
"I reckon you better not... fancy picking me up though?"
"Sure, I'll be there," He promises leaning in and kissing the corner of my mouth. I wave goodbye to my friends, leaving behind my half eaten lunch and storm out of the studio followed by Niall.
I ignore him as he holds the door for me, getting in the car nonchalantly.
Liam is waiting at the top of the police station's stairs. I climb them determine to give him a piece of my mind about this gun triggered tail of mine.
"Good you're here," He notes, checking his watch.
"I will not be man handled! Not by you and not buy this mad man of a guard you have following me! I do not appreciate him pointing his gun at friends every time they move not to his liking! And I go and do as I please! Not according to your tune! You are not the boss of me! You do not decide where I go or what I should be doing! And next time I'm smothered out of a room that way I swear to god you will be sorry!" With that I storm passed him and into the building. The detective is in a suit and tie today. No uniform. He is waiting for me and when I'm spotted he hurries over swiftly.
"Good. You're here, please follow me miss," He beckons.
Niall and Liam are on my heal, but I ignore them both.
I am sat at a conference room, a camera and a microphone placed on the table in front of me.
"Do you know why you're here?" He questions. I nod, flicking my eyes to Liam which is stood on the side, Niall beside him.
"State your name."
"Eleanor Clark," I reply.
"What is your real name?"
"Eleanor Clark," I repeat. The detective sends Liam a glance before continuing.
"Is it true you're princes Elena of Denmark? Abducted from home at age 3?"
"You tell me.. You’re the detective after all," I shrug.
"For God's sack Ellie!" Liam snaps.
"Please, your highness," The detective asks.
"Are you aware that Mr. and Mrs. Clark have not adopted you illegally, claiming you to be their adoptive child?" He goes on.
"Yes." I glance at the table.
"You knew?" Liam demands to know.
"I spoke to my mum," I shrug again. I don't miss the disapproving glance he sends Niall.
"When was this?" I am asked by the detective.
"Last night."
"You're telling me she spent last night at the house?" The detective questions angrily.
"It's my house as well! And they are my parents! You cannot keep me away!"I slam my palms on the table. I feel the sting run up my arms the force of the bang well felt.
"I want them out of the house and into custody," The detective demands.
"No!" I call out.
"Please! It was my fault! If you let them stay at home I promise- I'll keep away!" Panic spreads inside of me.
"You do not talk or go near them without supervision do you understand?" The detective demands.
"Yes... They are not bad people- they didn't know.. Not at first- they are my family.. Please let this go," I beg.
"It doesn't work that way, we are done for now," He stands up and bows his head at Liam before stepping out. I stare at Liam and Niall in anger and walk out of the room. Harry is stood outside and when he notices me he strides over.
"Are you alright?" He questions.
"No... I'm not."
