The day had seemed so promising for Diana and her boys as she drove along, heading towards their new future, their new life. A life of love, happiness, and family. A life of togetherness no more angst or heartbreak. She had been preparing for her seventh anniversary for weeks now. She had finally felt she had come to her senses. She had cut off any and all affairs. She was ready to give her marriage an honest try. To show the Prince of Wales, her husband how much she truly and deeply loved him.

 Her happiness on the drive to Highgrove was contagious. The entire way she and her boys giggled and sang songs, one of the most fun being Crazy Little Thing Called Love. It had been the first time in a very long time all three had felt the happiness they'd been missing.

 As she pulled her car up and parked she smiled and watched as the boys rushed out to greet their father happily. She loved to see the love they had for him. Smiling she too got out of the car and approached him. "Hello." She said warmly, again her happiness simply seeping through her words. Charles welcomed her inside, she followed behind him and the boys.

 Little did Diana know that just before she and the boys had arrived all the servants in the home had spent the last few hours preparing. Making the house look beautiful, filling the home with beautiful fresh flowers. They also made sure to take special care with the bedroom. Making sure to remove any pictures of her. Removing any trace she had recently been there.

 The day had gone wonderful, a happy poolside day with the boys. All four being the proper family they had always been meant to be. Once the boys had gone off to sleep, Diana and Charles had their anniversary dinner and exchanged gifts. Charles had been thoughtful but Diana's, hers had been more passionate, expressive, and filled with love for Charles, something he had not prepared for or appreciated. From his reaction alone Diana had known, no kind yet fake smiles could hide it. Charles was not feeling what she was right now, he hadn't for some time if ever at all. That night she woke the boys, packed them back into the car, and left, returning to Kensington Palace.

It had been somewhat late when Diana and the boys returned to Kensington Palace. She had tried to calm them, assure them everything was alright, and put them to bed. Afterward, she laid alone on the sofa in the sitting room, the sound of the radio playing softly. Once again she was alone, she felt so utterly and completely alone. And now, she had no one to turn to.

 She knew now no matter what she did or didn't do Charles would never want her, not in the way she needed him to. Whether she had a dozen more affairs or never made love again, Charles would always be with her. No matter how Diana begged and pleaded and made nice with the royal family, she'd always be unloved and alone.

 She laid crying silently, letting the tears flow. Her eyes then caught the sight of her boys standing in the doorway. This wasn't the first time they had caught her crying like this. "Mummy please don't cry." Young William said looking at her, trying to understand why she was crying.

 Little Harry watched before looking toward the radio. Often Diana's mood sometimes could be lifted by music. The song I Wanna Dance With Somebody was playing. Harry looked to Daian with a hopeful smile.

 Diana looked at her boys for a few moments while listening to the words of the song. At that moment she wasn't sure if she'd ever find a love like she truly wanted. But she also realized she had a love she desperately needed, her boys. No one, no man, would ever love her like her children did. All the self-harm she had done over the years to hide her hurt from everyone still caused hurt, to her boys. They needed her love and devotion just as she needed theirs. Smiling Diana stood and took her boys hands.

Playfully she began to sway with them. "Oh I wanna dance with somebody!" Both boys began to giggle and dance with her, singing along to the song. "I've been in love and lost my senses... spinning through the town... sooner or later the fever ends and I wind up feeling down..." laughing she happily scooped up Harry. "I need a man who'll take the chance on a love that burns hot enough to last... and when the night falls my lonely heart calls..."

Diana and her boys continued to dance, her taking turns with either of them before the trio plopped onto the sofa once the song ended, all of them laughing and trying to catch their breath. Diana was still very uncertain now of her future but she knew as long as she had her boy's things would turn out just as they should. She would never be truly alone.
