Prince wilbur and Prince Y/N hated each other.

That was just a universally accepted thing and something that made sense. Just like how water is wet, the ground was made out of dirt, wilbur and Y/N hated each other.

Both of their respecting kingdoms never had a good relationship to say the least. Way back in the day the two nations have wared against each other which almost ruined both kingdoms forcing the two to an act of neutrality with the behest of the neighboring kingdoms.

Though this was way off in the past. Nowadays they had rebuilt. Their forces and monetary situation stood strong but they stayed neutral. Eyeing each other closely for any slip ups, though they were also bound to contracts that would involve other nations as well should they begin to go to war again, which wasn't in interest for both parties.

So they tried to mostly ignore each other which only worked to an extent. If you are a strong nation with an impressive military force or with a lot of money, other nations will invite you to their balls, banquets or whatever fancy party they have going at that point. And it was in your best interest to join these as well, to show off your might, wealth or to connect with other foreign powers.

The first time Y/N's family took him with them to one of these balls, he was barely six years old.

For a six year old a ball was a boring affair. All the adults were courteously laughing and only sipping on their drinks. Occasionally walking on the stage to dance to the slow and boring music.

Y/N was busy watching two older women dance in tandem. Their dresses and silk moving together in a sea of fabric that seemed to hypnotized the child as he sat on the side of the stage. His parents were off somewhere else, feeling they could trust enough in his proper upbringing to not cause any problems, that they left him. Saying that he should try to enjoy himself.

Enjoy himself how? Dance with the lonely grandma that was busy drinking away all the wine in the castle? No, thank you.

Finally tearing his eyes off the dancing women Y/N noticed how someone else was cautiously approaching him. It was another kid in what he assumed was his age. This stranger had fluffy wild hair and had a sympathetic smile on his face. He wore a simple suit similar to Y/N's but there were a ton of differences in details.

As he got closer Y/N could swear that something seemed off about him. Something in him was screaming but he couldn't place why he felt like that.

"Hello." The other kid greeted Y/N.

Y/N looked around the room for a second before setting his attention back on him "Hello. Who are you?" There was a small hope in him, hey maybe this boring ball won't be so boring after all.

With a proud expression the kid did a proper royal greeting, bowing in front of Y/N for a second "I am Prince wilbur from the mighty nation of-"

But Y/N interrupted him "Prince wilbur?! I know of you! My parents warned me and told me to ignore you." He then stuck his tongue out and made a point to look away from him.

wilbur furrowed his brows, exclaiming loudly his confusion to this reaction "Huh? Why?"

Y/N rolled his eyes and got off the chair he was sitting on. Just like wilbur, he did his own version of the royal greeting that he got taught by his etiquette teachers "I am Prince Y/N."

He knew he didn't need to say more which got confirmed by wilbur's worried and confused expression turning into a proper frown.

"Oh, yuck, so that's what you look like."
