He paused before pulling me in for a kiss.

"What-" I couldn't finish what I was saying, as his lips were on mine.

At first, I was too confused to understand what was happening.

I closed my eyes and kissed him back.

He then stopped kissing me and looked up at me. As if asking for permission to continue.

I nodded and immediately felt his lips back on mine. I placed my hands at the back of his neck, and he placed his on my cheek.

As he began kissing my jawline, I heard someone behind me say, "What the fuck-"

Elijah, reluctantly, stops kissing me and looks up. "Marcel?" He asks.

"Yes, that's my name, now let me ask again, what the fuck?" He asks, annoyed.

"I don't need to come downstairs with a huge hangover, in desperate need of a meal, to find you cleaning Katerina's throat." He says, stepping aside to see me better, and steps back to where he was before, with a disgusted look on his face.

"In her pajamas nonetheless..wait, are you two a..thing? I mean, you two were getting pretty close last night." He says, remembering what he said to me last night.

His ears went red. Just like what Elijahs' ears do when he is...flustered.

"What we were doing is absolutely none of your business." I tell Marcel.

"I wasn't talking to you maid." He replied.

That was enough. I hadn't done this before, since we'd just met again after a long time the other evening. But I definitely needed to do this now.

I acted as if I was storming off, and when I heard an "awe, did I hurt the maids' feelings?" In a sarcastic tone, turned around, and slapped him. Well..I tried to slap him.

I hadn't even turned around fully when Elijah took his fist and punched Marcel.

I gasped. Did Elijah just-

"What is the meaning of this!?" Queen Silvia asks, running to Marcel, who was on the floor.

"He was treating Katerina in a very rude manner. Someone had to put him in his place, and frankly, I didn't think you were going to do anything about it mére."Elijah replies. He was getting defensive.

"I am doing something about it, Elijah! That's why Lady Katerinas' here!" She replied angrily.

"What?.." He asks, turning to me.

"Is that the reason you..you were taking an interest in me?" He asks, Hurt.

"What? No Elijah! That's not the reaso-" I said before realizing he had walked away.

"Interest? What've you kids been doing?" Silvia chuckles.

"Not the time Silvia!" I said, running after Elijah.

Silvia looked hurt, but I honestly didn't care.

"Elijah! Please that's not why I've..I've taken an interest in you. Believe me. The feelings I've got were not planned. They just..happened. As if they were alread-" I suddenly felt arms on my waist.

Elijah was hugging me.

"I..believe you." He said.

But he paused. Did he not actually believe me?

"I've realized this Katerina...I really fancy you.." He says.

This time not only were his ears red, but his cheeks were too.

I couldn't hold it in anymore. I gently grabbed his head.

"What're you-"

"Shh-"

I kissed him, then pinned him to the wall.

He placed his left hand on the back of my head and his right hand on my cheek, almost touching my ear.

Next thing I knew, we had made our way to my room.
