Betty couldn't remember the first time anyone called her
Princess
. Her father had never called her anything else. She
could
, however, remember the first time her little girl's mind made the association between the character on the theater screen and what she had always been called.
"Daddy if I'm a Princess how come we don't live in a castle like that?"
He hugged me and asked, "Have you ever seen a castle, Darling? Not one in the movies or on TV, I mean a real one?"
She shook her head. "No, never."
"Well
that's
the problem! There are more Princesses then there are castles. To make it even worse, almost all the castles were built in Europe which is very far away. Princess, if only they had built more castles around here, then I'm sure you'd have been picked as an
official
Princess."
When she started going to school she quickly learned the simple truth that attitude is everything. As long as she acted like a Princess and was kind to most of her subjects then she got treated like one. When she got a little older and went to middle school everything started to fall into place as her body started to fill out. She'd always had a pretty face, long blonde hair and a well rounded bottom, but as her chest began to grow she began to realize the value of boys. As long as she controlled the most popular and athletic boys, everyone else fell into line; and her body kept growing.
In seventh grade she had a big fight with her mother because she insisted that she needed to buy larger cup bras but her mother said that she didn't need them yet. They finally agreed that as soon as she was in eighth grade she could move up to C cups but by the time they were out shopping for back to school clothes she finally was forced to admit that Betty needed to skip C cups and move on to Ds.
High school was rough, though. Betty's school and two others wound up in the town's single consolidated George W. Obama High School and it turned out there were three princesses in the same school. For the first time she had to compete to extend her domain. She was considering having sex with Robbie Carter so she could solidify her control over the school quarterback but changed her mind reasoning that her cherry was something she could hold out to several popular boys as a possibility but the moment she gave it to one, she lost that power. Besides, there were still
several
things she could do for Robbie without losing her virginity and
all
the boys told her she was good at them.
Then came U.N.L.V.
It was a completely new kingdom and they were all entering on more or less equal ground. She said more or less because even the crowd with 20/400 vision could tell she had an edge. She was an eighteen-year-old fox with a killer chest, an ass which attracted more than its share of pats, long wavy hair, a cover girl face and a dusky voice.
She remained active in gymnastics, registered for the Drama club and wrote Haiku. Her roommate, Becca Lindner, was involved in cheerleading but Betty hadn't been interested. She was studying on her bed when Becca burst into the room.
"
We
have a late admission!"
"What are you talking about Becca?"
"Norm Kincaid worked out some sort of deal and is matriculating here this year. His agent announced that he turned down some movie contract so he could finish his education and he wants to play hoops here."
Betty's eyes were the size of saucers. "Oh My God! This is perfect. Twenty bucks says he'll be following my ass around like a puppy by the end of this semester."
"No bets but you have competition, I just saw him on the quad talking with Jessica Lewis." Betty just smiled. She had known Jessica for five years and knew she'd represent no competition.
The next day Betty was feeling rather smug. Not only was it a beautiful day but she'd been sitting on the steps of the library for the last forty five minutes chatting with the school's new celebrity. Norm had been having a hard time keeping his eyes off her chest which suited her just fine. "You know, Norm, Saturday after next the alumni have taken over the ballroom for a dinner dance and a select few of us active in student affairs have been given tickets. You're new here and if you'd like I'd be happy to take you and introduce you to many of the 'right' people."
Norm lifted his hand and gently stroked the back of his fingers down her cheek as he gazed into her eyes. "Thanks a lot Betty but Jessica Lewis already asked me and I said yes. I wish I'd known you then 'cause I can see you'd probably be a
lot
of fun to spend an evening with." This time those same fingers began gently stroking the side of her right breast. Betty was more than a little shocked by such forward behavior, especially in public like this, but she had set out to capture his attention so she didn't make a fuss. She still reached out and removed his hand from her chest and brought it up to kiss those fingertips. Betty looked up and saw those eyes gazing deeply into hers and for some reason she couldn't quite comprehend instead of kissing them she began slowly sucking his index and middle finger into her mouth.
From the window in the south reading room Jessica had been steadily watching as the melodrama unfolded before her. She felt fairly confident of her relationship with Norm but she realized how vulnerable she was to the
Princess'
