The Gay King

Chapter 1: The Beggining...

There once was a boy, and an adventurous boy he was. He wanted adventure that his parents just couldn't give him, for his own "safety" they said, little did they know. Hm, they knew very little, actually. It doesn't matter now..... now that they're dead. The prince of Crofters Kingdom, was now a king. Romulus' father, the former ruler of Crofters Kingdom, made being kind look so easy, but the truth is, that isn't the case. "STOP HIM!!! HE'S GETTING AWAY!!" Romulus heard the head guard yell. Romulus walked to where the head guard was. "What's going on?" Romulus asked, eagerly awaiting an answer. "We found a witch within the kingdom's borders, we're trying to stop him at once!" The guard explained quickly. "Are you sure he's a witch?" Romulus asked, feeling a bit of pity for the "witch". Romulus stood there as the head guard struggled to find an answer. "Someone reported a hooded figure with scales, so we think he's a witch." The guard explained, this time surprised by the king's response. "GUARDS!" Romulus called loudly. The guards assigned to catch the "witch" came back with one of them holding their sword up to his throat. "Let. Him. Go."  "But he's a witch-" the guard holding the sword said before quickly getting cut off by the king. "Now." Romulus ordered in a more commanding voice this time. The guard hesitantly let go, as soon as he did, the hooded person tried to run off. "Wait!" Romulus grabbed the hooded person's wrist. "What?" The hooded person spun on his heels, venom laced in his voice. Romulus was shocked at the tone, the hooded person covered his mouth, remembering he was talking to the king. "Your highness i apologize-" The hooded person was cut off by the king. "It's fine, your life was just threatened, I apologize for my guards' rash behavior," Romulus whispers to the person. "Maybe  they'll be put in the dungun later.. hmm." The person quietly giggled to himself. "Come inside! I was just about to eat breakfast, I'm sure the chefs could prepare at least 1 more plate.." Romulus offered walking towards the castle, looking back at the hooded person. "Uh, ssorry, I just ate." The hooded man lied. "J-Janus? What are you doing here?" A "random person" came up to Janus. "Who...are you..?" Janus looked convincingly confused, because he was, he doesn't remember this person for reasons unknown. He feels like he should remember him though. "You know exactly who i am. We've been friends since we were little" Janus still doesn't recognize his closest friend since Pre-K. "Does the name Virgil ring a bell?"  Janus now recognized his best friend "ohhhhh what are you doing here emo?" Janus asked "we needed more food so i came to....buy...some'' Romulus looked towards Janus. "So your name is Janus?" Romulus looked at Janus with an unreadable expression. "You didn't tell the KING your NAME?!" Virgil looked at Janus with surprise that he isn't dead, not only for keeping a secret FROM the king, also lying to the king & being accused of being a witch. "He's kinda lenient.." Janus whispered inVirgil's ear. "Okay I'm gonna go get what we need'' Virgil said then walked off. "I'm assuming that was your friend?"  Romulus asked "Yep." Janus replied looking back, making sure he left without the guards bothering him. "He's my only friend.." Janus turned back toward the king. "Now that I think about it I-I'm more hungry than I thought..." Janus finally admitted, giving in to hunger. "How about you come with me to the castle and we can eat there?" Romulus offered once again. "I..." Janus was at a loss of words at this offer, forgetting about the guards for a moment. Janus wasn't thinking when did it, he almost regretted it afterwards, but I'll let you see for yourself what he did... "Yes! Thank you! Thank you!" Janus accepted, and without thinking hugged the king! "It's really no problem."  Romulus said. Janus realized he was still hugging him, he awkwardly let go, then he heard something he could only pin to one person. "What...the..." Janus' father, the royale advertizer, was walking around the perimeter of the castle when he found his son...
"son?!"
