The Crowned Enemies

Chapter 7: Karma's POV

I continued listening to adults about me and Y/N's wedding plans. I felt something heavy on my shoulders. I looked over to my right shoulder and my eyes widened as I saw that Y/N had fallen asleep on my shoulder. 

I covered my face with my hand as my cheeks started to grow slightly red.

 My parents and Y/N's parents had noticed a silence between us and looked to see Y/N fallen asleep on my shoulder.

"Oh?" My father said, with a grin.

 "Oh gosh.." I said, quietly. I slowly got up from the couch and laid her down. I bowed after I set her down.

"What about Y/N?" My mother said reaching out for my hand to stop me from leaving the room. I eyed her suspiciously, trying to read her mind about what she wanted me to do.

 I sighed and picked up Y/N from the couch bridal-style and walked out the room. I felt stares from people in the castle.

"Where's Y/N bedroom?" I asked one of the guards. 

"Continue forward and take a right, her doors are gray." I nodded and proceeded. 

I arrived (hopefully) to her bedroom and the maids had noticed me carrying her and opened the doors to her room. I almost dropped Y/N as I saw her bedroom was scattered in books and hairpins. I looked for her bed and plopped her in. I was exhausted from carrying her, she wasn't heavy but she kept moving and squirming around in my arms.

 I sat on the edge of her bed and saw her sleeping sound asleep. Her hair had fallen down and was messed up. I moved a strand of hair from her face before she ate it.

I got up from her bed and felt a tug from my wrist. I look back to see Y/N gripping my wrist. Her hands were unbelievably soft.

"Stay.." She said with a tired voice. I sighed and sat back down. She fell back asleep again and turned her back away from me.

"Tch." I say.

...

A few hours later, I woke up after watching the sun go down. I looked at the mirror that was facing me and saw that Y/N was cuddling with her pillow. I looked away quickly and got up.

 I exited her room and walked down the hall and saw my parents waiting for me.

"Soo..?" My mother asked.

"It wasn't like that." I said and put my hands in my pockets.

We got on the carriage and the silence made me uncomfortable. 

"Did you-"

"No." I said.

"Hmm.." 

I sighed, "She fell asleep and tugged my wrist for me to stay and I stayed there until I fell asleep. I didn't sleep with her though." I said quickly, admitting the truth.

"Fine, I believe you." My father said.

...

The following day arrived and oh gosh, I was so tired. All last night, I couldn't sleep at all. My mind was filled with my past memories with Y/N. I wasn't inlove or anything. I was just.. thinking back to the good times we had together.

The day was like every normal day. Regular sword practice, violin class (which I find very useless), and a few other classes and practices. After that, I went to take a quick shower and then to the dining room for dinner.

My parents were really busy today. I don't know what they were doing but I'm guessing it has something to do with the wedding.

"Karma, Y/N's parents are coming here to our palace tomorrow." My father said, breaking the silence in the room.
