The princes and the peasant

Part.13

*Leah POV*

I opened my eyes slowly my head hurt a lot, I looked around, I didn't know wherwe I was, I was lying on a bed I guess,it was just a lot of straw piled up in a corner, a sack full of feathers and a blanket I tried to sit down but everything started to spin and my head started to hurt more so I layed down again, I closed my eyes and put my hands on my head, I tried to calm down my headache but I couldn't it just hurt more and more, I let out a groan of pain "Leah?" Someone said as he opened the door, it was Martinus, that was his voice "Martinus? What happened? Where am I?" I asked weakly and slowly opened my eyes and looked at him, he had knelt down next to me "you are in my room, you fell downstairs when you tried to make that guard let you go, don't you remember?" He asked "barely" I said and groaned in pain again "does something hurt?" He asked worried "my head, it hurts like hell" I said "you still having a bit of fever, i'll be back in a minute" he said and left.

He came back he had a bucked with water, a cloth and a glass with I don't know what "drink this, it will help with your headache" he said giving it to me "thanks" I said and drink it, it tasted quite good to be honest. Martinus put the cloth inside the bucket and then on my forehead, I closed my eyes as I felt the cold cloth on my skin "does it feel good?" He asked "yeah" I said "try to sleep, you'll feel better in the morning" he said and kissed my check "wait, if this is your room, where are you sleeping? I guess this is your bed" I said "yeah, this is my bed, it's not much but it's better than sleeping on the floor, and about your question, I'm sleeping on the sofa, which is not very good for my neck and back" he said with a pain face as he stretched his back "you can stay here, I don't want to be alone" I said "okay" he said and layed downs next to me "is this okay for you?" He asked as he pulled me closer to him and hugged me "it's perfect" I said cuddling against him

*in the morning*

"Leah, wake up" Martinus said shaking me softly "good morning" he said as I opened my eyes "morning" I said "breakfast is ready" he said and help me to stand up, I groaned in pain as I stood, Martinus caught me before I fell "you okay?" He asked "my ankle, it hurts" I said "well, I guess is my turn to help you to walk" he said and he let me lean on him "that's it, slowly, it will get better" he said as he helped me to go downstairs "are you okay Leah?" G.A asked as she saw me "yeah, my ankle hurts, that's all" I said "okay, sit down and eat, your ankle will be fine soon" she said.

"You need to look like a peasant, the king is looking for you all around the village and that princess dress will make you really visible if you need to run away" G.A said "okay, how I'm suppose to look like a peasant?" I asked "I think I have some clothes that could fit you and a haircut will be perfect to make you look different" she said "yes, a haircut, you have no idea of for how long i've be wanted short hair but my father has never let me cut it" I said "let's go then, i'll help you to walk" she said and we walked upstairs to Martinus' room "i'll be back in a second" she said, when she came back she helped me to change my clothes, the dress was really different from the one I was wearing, this was shorter and it wasn't as big as mine "do you like it?" G.A asked "I love it and it's much more comfortable than mine" i said "you already changed a lot just by changing that luxurious dress to this one and now is time for your haircut" she said taking her scissors.

After a while is done "what do you think?" She asks giving me a mirror "omg, it's amazing, I look better than I had imagined" I said "let's see what the others think" she said and he helped me to go downstairs "holy shit..." Martinus stated saying but stopped and looked at me with his mouth open just as Marcus "language" G.A said "so..sorry but, omg, I thought you couldn't look more beautiful Leah, but now...you..you..I think I fell in love again, you look gorgeous" he said "thanks" I said blushing
