Chapter 10 - Beautiful

TW: Not really a panic attack, I think, but a breakdown? I don't know if people get triggered by these things, but Im gonna put a warning so you can just scroll through that part.

~Zak POV~

I hear Lefie's quiet snoring, which was muffled as their face was buried around my chest with their arms pulling me close. The light coming from my window emphasised their beautiful features. I smiled softly, giving them a head pat.

I was never that into physical affection, but Lefie's definitely an exception.

I stared for a while, reminiscing on the memories we've made together when life was simpler.

The times where I'd stay up with them whenever they had nightmares. The time where I convinced them to move in with us in the Ahmed kingdom. The time where I bought them their flag for their 13th birthday, they just hugged me for a while and cried unto my shoulder for half an hour, before running around in the castle and using the flag as a cape.

I smiled and gave a low chuckle. I stopped before I teared up too much.

I reached over to the letters next to me, careful not to wake up my sleeping friend.

I felt them shuffle and grunt at the movement, but they still remained asleep. I let out a small sigh of relief, as I know that they wake up so easily.

I look at the letters, finding a name unfamiliar to me written on one of them.

"From, princess Zoid." My face slightly dropped, and I let out a silent sigh.

I have heard of Zoid from Dream, I know that she's his second cousin. He said good things to me, but I didn't know if this girl was good news, so I kept my guard up and put her letter behind the other two.

I saw Darryl's letter. I stared deeply at it for a while, before I shook my head, placing it in the back.

I distract myself by looking at my instructors letter, Techno.

I was very curious on what the letter held, knowing that Techno wasn't a letter type of person. If he wanted to say something, he'd say it to your face, no matter how far you are. Or at least, that's what I thought.

Prince Zak,

I rolled my eyes at this, I already told him to stop being formal to me, but it seems like he does it to annoy me. I slowly shook my head with a smile.

I am informing you that I have arrived back earlier than I expected, as it was said to me that the mission to go to the nether has been moved to me closer to the present.

I didn't know that. I have thought about joining the mission, but I knew that I would be too busy planning the ball. Boys, girls, neithers and in-betweens, there has been a change of plans, as it seems.

I am writing this letter as I have a question in mind, will thou still take on my lessons? I know that you need me and my lessons, because wow, I am amazing.

I let out an offended scoff and I playfully rolled my eyes.

I have thought of taking fighting classes with Techno, but he was always busy planting on a farm or teaching soldiers from kingdom Espie and Krystalla. It seems as he has more time now, because if he didn't, why would he write me this?
