    Peter pulled away as a soldier barged into the room. The girl blinked, recovering from the shock of what just happened.
     "wow ever heard of privacy?" Nia muttered.
   "We need to have another meeting about the war, the enemy approaches fast and we haven't a solid plan yet"
   Nia groaned then sighed, "ugh yea whatever I'm coming"
    "No, It's my job. You rest." Peter said gently pushing Nia on the bed.
    "No its alright" the girl got up again, "I started the plan, you'll probably fuck it up" She pushed past the king to follow the soldier.
    Peter rolled his eyes and followed her out. "At this point you should just be king" he laughed.
    "Dude I've been saying that the whole time" Nia turned to grin at him.

"I'm assuming all is well now?" Edmund asked as the two walked in the dining room later that evening.
   "oh no we're in deep shit with the war" Nia stated, "but me and stupid over here are good."
Peter shoved her slightly, and sat down at the head of the table "yea the war is coming quickly and our plans are far from over"
    "plus these are actual living beings we're going up against, not some monster made out of darkness" Nia rubbed her forehead, "this is going to be a tough one"
    "my father is going to be arriving soon to help with an alliance," Laurie chimed in, "If all goes well you can expect the help of my kingdoms army"
      "That would actually solve a lot of our problems" Nia said gratefully to the girl while getting up, "aight I'm heading out for the night, call me if we get attacked or whatever"

   Peter walked into Nia's room a few hours later, "so...."
    "huh?"
    "the kiss?"
   "Peter we're in the middle of planning a war you can't be seriously more concerned about a kiss"
    "Just wanted to make sure we're good"
Nia rolled her eyes and patted the space next to her on the bed.
    "You look like shit" the boy held her face and traced his thumb along her cheeks.
   "Real fuckin smooth" Nia rolled her eyes, holding his hand. The pair started to slowly drift into sleep, "hey you wanna make bets on how long it takes for Enne and Edmund to get together"
    "Oh my god go to sleep" Peter groaned
    "I'm gunna say like 2 more years tops"

   "Your Majesty," Peter bowed in greetings to Lau's father
    "I've heard that the alliance is making good progress" The man looked approvingly at Peter.
     "Yes it has been, I trust that we will be able to benefit each other greatly"

   "This has got to be one of the most painfully boring conversations I've ever heard" Nia turned to Enne who nodded in agreement.
    "Well we need their armies so be quiet and play along" Edmund whispered
   "Father, they are in need of our armies for an upcoming war, I'm sure we can help them out" Lau continued in the political conversation.
    "Certainly, once the alliance has been properly sealed we would be happy to help."

     Lucy turned to Nia, "Our enemies are human this time" she sighed, "It feels so wrong to fight another person than it does to fight a monster"
    Nia shrugged, "We're going to have to if we want to win. Plus some would say humans are the real monsters"
  Enne shoved her friend, "She's a child don't tell her things like that"
    "It's true tho" Nia muttered as she tried to tune back in to the politics.

    "So Peter and Nia are acting the same way then they did before even though they kissed? How do you even know they kissed?" Ed whispered to Enne,
   "I overheard that soldier that walked in on them"

   They turned to the two in question, watching as Peter discussed matters of the alliance and Nia zoned out
    "I wonder what's going on with them" Ed continued
    "I don't think even they know," Enne replied shaking her head, "I'm bored wanna go do literally anything else"
    "Absolutely"
The two got up to leave, Nia shot her friend a wink and smirked as they left together.

    Her mind started to wander to the kiss she'd previously shared with Peter. They hadn't talked about it or even acted like it happened at all. Internally groaning because of how boring this meeting was, she excused herself from the table, discreetly giving the kings hand a slight squeeze.

    All that remained was Peter and Laurie's father, King Martin.
    "The terms are set and everything seems to be in order, I believe we should seal this alliance like every good alliance" Martin concluded

    "I'm sorry but how does one seal a good alliance?" Peter asked confused

   "With a marriage of course!"
