wow. when i first read that i just skimmed it and I thought you’d written the same thing twice. :] but I love the subtle differences between each interlocking story. i feel for both the girl and the princess. I’ve felt like that before.

Cute, and kudos on a nice use of parallelism. I’m pretty sure that’s a word anyway. Odds are the boy is an immature doofus—most of us are. Maybe by the time he grows out of it, the girl won’t be grounded. Kind of better to wait anyway.
