It was a summer morning in Jorvik. After all the adventures with the soul riders you decided it was time to cool off. You head on downstairs where you were greeted by a guest.

"Xin? What are you doing here" you ask him in a polite tone with a sweet smile. He looks trough his bag and hands you a paper. "YDRIS THE AMAZING!" was written on it in all caps. You turn the paper around. "COME SEE MY SHOW! EVERYONE IS INVITED" you chuckle, oh Ydris, you think to yourself. Right at that moment xin hands you a ticket. A front row ticket, this got you excited.

You wave Xin goodbye as you walk to the kitchen. You make some toast and put scrambled eggs on them, while making the toast you kept thinking about Ydris. His smile.. his lips- HIS WHAT? you think to yourself, you put your hands in your face out of frustration. Oh no this is going a different way then i expected, you silently whisper to yourself.

You finish eating breakfast and head down to the stables. Maya was waiting for you and she hands you a rake. "C'mon time to do chores princess" she always says that when I oversleep. She thinks that i think I'm some kind of royalty for waking up late and not doing chores. "I'm only joking!" She followed. You hold on to the rake and start picking in the hay, practically throwing it to the horses. "Don't be so aggressive!" You heard Maya say to you in a serious tone.

You weren't paying attention and suddenly you noticed something, the hay was in a heart shape! Oh no what has gotten into you now [Y/N]. You think to yourself as you notice your skin heating up. You looked in the reflection of the rake and your suspicions were right, you were blushing. You continue working and suddenly it's noon.

You head out to the paddock and tack up [H/N]. He/she make happy noises as you sit down on him/her. You start riding trough the forest, up the hill to Nilmers highland. The show was starting at 9 yet you were here at 1 in the afternoon noon. You see the top of a purple circus. You get excited.

You ride up to Ydris, you wonder what he could be doing, outside staring into nothing-ness. You tap his shoulder. "Hello dove! You startled me" he says in a still shocked tone. "You're quite early my sweet, care to help me out?" You smile brightly and nod your head.

He smiled back, just now you noticed his fangs. Hm interesting, but since he is a Pandorian i guess everything makes him interesting. "Now if you're done staring at me, love. Can we start setting everything up?" You struggle to make a sentance. "Yes sir!" Uhh "Yes Man!" you feel your face getting red "Yes magician man!" Oh no that was really embarrassing. Your horse makes a sound, signalling that she/he was amused.

"oh dove" his sweet voice called out. He starts telling you what to do and you get the boxes like he asked you too. You walk back to him and hand it over. "Magnificent!" He yells out, he is clearly pleased with your help. He pats your head. "That's all now ma chérie!" He says as he enters his fortune teller tent. You hadn't even noticed the long line.

You hear a couple of girls talking. One of their sentances called out to you. "I hope he gives me a fortune about finding true love with him" I snarled at the comment. I walk over to the end of the line, listening in to the conversation.

One girl came out crying "such a drama queen!" An other girl called out. "Quinn he doesn't love you!" A girl said to the other girl. Now you noticed what was going on, everyone here had a crush on him. And now you have made it your challenge, he was yours to take and you would win this challenge. After a while you notice there is only one girl standing infront of you, you take out your phone.

You get completely distracted and suddenly you hear a curtain open infront of you. "My dove came flying back to me!" He says while using your chin. The girls behind you made jealous grunts, some even leaving the cue. You chuckle at that. He holds out his and put you decline, that seemed to hurt him.

"Now, ma chérie, what will it be?" You sigh "I'll take a-" you couldn't even finish your sentance. He chuckled "A mysterious fortune right?" He said sure of himself. You nod, he knew you well. He points at the crystal ball and you place your hands on it. He places his hands over yours. You feel butterflies in your stomach.

He starts talking, even smiling a little. "Tonight you will have the time of your life, sit at the front and enjoy the view, as your life changed infront of you" you look confused. "Was my fortune not clear?" He says with disappointment in his voice. He then continues "All will be clear in time deary" he says as he kisses you on the hand. You blush, he smiles. He gestures to the curtain and you leave. As you walk back to your horse. You hear him say something. "Everyone get out now! You will all be welcome tonight, no more fortunes anymore" it made you feel special.

You head back to your home stable, you stand there outside of the paddock. Leading your horse inside of it. She/he lays down in the warm grass. Right now it was about 5 in the evening and you decided to make yourself some dinner. You made delicious spaghetti and ate it as soon as it was done. You then headed upstairs and put on your [F/C] dress/suit. He will surely like it, wait why was his opinion important all of a sudden?

You shrugged it off, shit! You look at the time "7.30" you only had 30 minutes to get to nilmers highland, since your horse was already asleep it meant you had to walk. You stared walking there, the watch ticking slowly. As you were about to step foot in the circus you remembered something. His words, the words that hit you like a buss again. "Stop.. stop.. okay you have won" you shake your head and throw the watch on the floor breaking it. You walk into the circus.

He put up a beautiful show, and you enjoyed it. Sitting front row was you. You could enjoy every minute of it and see what as happening right infront of you. Ydris occasionally winked at you, making you blush. At the end of the show he reaches out his hand. Every girl and some guys scoffed and someone even stood up and left. You gladly accepted his offer and held his hand. He helps you get on zee, as you preform all of these cool tricks zee stops. Walks back to ydris and ydris takes your hand again. He then holds your hand and you bow together. Your stomach couldn't handle the amount of butterflies.

He looked to the side, facing you. He smiled kindly. He walked with you go the exit and opens the curtains for you. You step outside in the cold starry night. You couldn't possible walk back home in the dark. Alone. Ydris noticed something bothered you.

"Are you okay my dear?" He said with worry on his tone. You aren't sure of what to answer "no, I'll have to walk alone in the dark. I'm scared..." Why did you tell him that? He will probably be a creep and invite you to stay in his wagon.

He holds your hand. "Now where was your home love?" You act confused, uh at moorland. As he holds your hand he starts walking to moorland. He starts talking about how all the stars make different constatations. Even tellen me his star sign. You felt safe walking with him hand him hand. When you got home he placed a small kiss on your hand. "Good night my love!" He says. You smile sweetly "good night ydris!" You say back to him. You waved him goodbye, and right as he was about to turn around the corner he looked back at you, and smiled. Then leaving.

Omg! He looked back, it was the only thing you could think of at that moment. It kept crossing your mind as you went to bed. You lied down and looked at the ceiling, all you could think about was lying with him and looking at the stars. He made you feel all sorts of warmth. Eventually you drifted off in a comfortable sleep.
