We Belong Together

💞Meeting in the Middle💞

After some time passed Dakota and Kaspian were now chilling in the library, and trying to come up with a game plan as to how they wanted their meeting to go with Dakota's parents.

Dakota's POV
So after our little encounter with my father earlier, me and Kaspian went to the library to make sure that we had our points straight, in order to prepare for dinner tonight with my parents.

To be honest, I'm so over it.. It shouldn't be this fuckin hard to be with my boyfriend. First of all, I'M GROWN! Second of all, we've been together for almost 2 1/2 years now (even tho we grew up together, but you know) and we're both mature enough to make our own decisions. And last but not least, he's a prince and I'm a princess. As long as you marry or date within royalty, it is acceptable. So, for my parents to make a big ass deal about us being from two different kingdoms is ridiculous!

And I mean yes, other kingdoms do abide by these laws, but other kingdoms that are far out don't. I just don't think that its far that my parents are giving us a pass to date each other (for now anyways), but they damn near refuse to let us get married one day. Either way it goes, I'm not leaving my baby, and he's not leaving me anytime soon either. Sooo yeah...!

Anyways, let me stop ranting so you guys can hear the rest of the story 💝.

Kaspian's POV
As I was walking up and the down the isles of the library looking through the new collection of books that just got shipped in, I couldn't stop thinking about how all of this was gonna play out. You know, sometimes I wish that we weren't royalty that way me and Dakota could just be together freely. Now don't get me wrong, even though there are pros and con's to being a prince, I am greatful for all and everything that I have. My girl, my family, my royal staff, and of course my humble subjects. But its just so much unwanted pressure that comes with it as well.

Anyways, after being lost in my thoughts I turned around and looked to side to see my baby completely overwhelmed. She was sitting down at a nearby table in the distance, with her head laying down on the table. She crossed her arms and used it as a pillow. She was looking in the other direction so she couldn't see me. But I could see her just fine.. Her eyes were a little watery and she wasn't moving much. I stopped what I was doing and walked over to her, picked her up, and reposition her to were she was now sitting on my lap. She wrapped her arms around my neck, and she didn't say much. She just rested her head on my shoulder while I held onto her.

"Its okay babe, everything is gonna be okay."

"I don't know... I'm just really stressed out at this point. You know how my parents are and how they are really strict on tradition. To be honest, the only reason why we are together right now is because my dad allows us to be. My mom is the problem."

"I know baby, but she'll have to come around sometime. She CAN'T be like this forever."

"Its whatever at this point. I just want us to be happy in peace! Grow up, have our babies, rule our kingdoms and call it a day!"

"Well, I've been thinking.."

"Yeah babe?"

"What if I gave your parents an ultimatum."

"Like what? Like some sort of deal of something??"

"Ummm, more like a promise. Or more so a chance for us to prove ourselves to them. If we can show them that its possible for us to get marry without having any issues being attached, then I believe that they'll give us a fair shot!"

"And if that fails, we'll just run away, change our names, and get the hell outta here!"

I laugh and kiss the top of her head. "Babe we can't just get outta everything just by running away. How are we gonna show them that we're mature when we, meaning you, don't that."

"Easy, I'm 21 and ur 22, baby we're grown, we can do whatever the hell we want. We're not kids anymore you know." She said as she sighed and rolled her eyes.

I smirked and looked at her and said, "Are you sure, because I only see one grown person here - "

"Who!!!" , she looked at me all mad now 😆

"Me! Who else would I be talking about?!!" 😂, I said as I pretending to look around the room to see who the hell she was talking too.

"I AM grown!!! And for your information you seemed to think that I was grown enough last night😏." Now she was the one smirking now 😟😒

"Whatever that doesn't count.. I hate when you do that tho"

"Do what?? 😏"

"Use our sex life against me 😖."

"Works everytime 💕!" She said as she kissed me softly and of course I kissed my baby back 🤤😏.

Right in the middle of our make out session, we hear the library doors being open. We stop and we both look up in the direction of the noise of the door being open.

It was Dakota's brother, Kayden...
