A Princess and her Knight

Plot
Just a little story on how Panacea and Joey came up with each other's nicknames.

Story
Five year old Panacea sat on the ground outside of her house. "Don't wander off Pan-Pan my dear!" Her father's voice carried over to where she was sitting. "Otay!" Cea called back.

She was playing with a blue flower when she saw people walk by. It was Princess Ozma, Princess Dorothy, and Princess Remmie. Remmie turned and saw Cea watching her with wide eyes. Remmie giggled and waved at her.

Cea blinked in surprise. Then she giggled and waved back. "Heyo Cea!" A boy's voice called. She smiled brightly when her best friend Joey ran over to her and sat down. "What awe you wooking at?" Joey asked.

"Pwincess Wemmie. I want to be a pwincess too." Cea said somewhat wistfully. Joey thought for a moment. "Maybe you tan be!" He declared. "No I tan't Joey. Mommy says I has to be like Daddy, and Daddy's not a pwincess." Cea said, her lower lip quivering.

Joey frowned. He did not want to see Cea cry. "You awe a pwincess Cea! You awe my pwincess and tat wiw nevuh change!" He yelled out, before giving Cea a hug.

Cea giggled. "If I am a pwincess, then you awe my pwince!" She declared as she hugged him back. Joey giggled. "Nope!" He said. "Why not?' Cea asked, pouting. "If I am a pwince, tat means I tan't hep you when you need it. I am not a pwince." Joey shook his head.

Cea thought for a moment, then her eyes lit up. "How about you be my knight? Siw Jojo! Ten you tan hep me whenevuh you want!' She suggested.

"Otay!" Joey and Cea hugged one last time, before Ojo came and got his son.

Fifteen year old Panacea sat in the Enchanted forest, fiddling with a blue flower. Someone walked by, catching her eye. It was Remmie Gale, the princess of Oz. Cea raised her hand to wave, and Remmie waved back.

"Hello Princess!" A boy's voice called. Cea laughed as Joey sat next to her. "Hello Sir Jojo." She said in a fake posh voice before laughing again. Joey joined in, then noticed Remmie.

"Still wish you were a princess like Remmie?" He asked. Cea thought for a moment before answering. " Not really. Besides, I already am a princess Joey. I've got my knight protector and everything. What more does a princess need?"

"To get back to class?" He suggested. Cea laughed as she stood up. "Come on Princess, ready to go?" He asked. Cea nodded. "Let's go Sir Jojo."Joey slung his arm over her shoulder and the friends walked back to class.

(the whole time Blondie and Cupid watched them and wondered for about the millionth time how it was possible that those two dorks still weren't dating.)
