A clown and prince || hisoillu prince au

2~

The ball had begun and the sound of chatter and music filled the room. I was walking around like a lost kid, trying to find something to do. I wished I could join and dance all day. I wanted to laugh and have fun with everyone but...I couldn't. That just wasn't what I was here to do. Servants are here to work. That's it, nothing more...

I bent down to pick up a wrapper off the floor but got pushed back by someone. I stumbled back, about to fall until I felt two gentle arms catch me. I looked up to see who was holding me and my heart dropped. It was prince Illumi. "O-oh i'm so sorry!" I stuttered picking up the wrapper that was once again on the floor. "Don't worry, but next time be careful if you don't want to be caught talking to the prince." He chuckled.
I quickly got up trying not to bring any more to me than I already had.
"I'M SO SORRY, PLEASE FORGIVE ME!" I pleaded bowing down to the assassin.
"That's alright, I have no reason to tell my father since the only person I can talk to today is the person I've been paired with." Illumi pointed to his most likely, soon to be husband.
I looked over to the side and saw the man next to Illumi. He glared back over to me so I looked straight down sweating nervously.
"Haha w-well I better be going back to work!" I laughed nervously.
"Well, if you must." The prince responded.

I quickly walked away hiding somewhere so Illumi couldn't see me. I put my hands on the sides of my head and squeeze my eyes shut. What was I thinking talking to him for that long!
I could've gotten in big trouble if I got caught.

I continue to work for the rest of the dance, occasionally taking glances of the eldest prince. I just couldn't stop looking at his black, marble eyes and his long, dark hair. I went to put away some dishes as I heard the bells chime. It's twelve o'clock. I hurriedly went out to see who got picked as Illumi's partner.
Of course I was just curious I didn't actually couldn't care less who it was.

Silva strutted out and called everyone to his attention. Now, the people who have been chosen are... He started naming husbands and wives for the other debutantes who weren't in his family, and finally went to Illumi last. Since the other Zoldycks were still too young they werent called for an official partner. Only one Zoldyck child was to have an official partner so Milluki left early to play board games by himself.

Milluki didn't like to go to social events instead, he enjoyed playing games of any kind. Board games, card games, even a simple word game would make him go crazy trying to find the best strategy to win. Of course he would be punished by his strict parents later for not staying as long  as he should've. That's why Illumi didn't leave even though he didn't like being around these people.

"Now, the lucky one to be chosen to marry my dear Illumi is...Chrollo Lucifer! Out of everyone in the kingdom, this man managed to be the wealthiest which is how he got lucky enough to marry my son!" Silva looked pleased to have someone with so much money, soon join the family.

"Now, remember since you are both men, you have to do the alternative and get children made in the labs to reach your quota of five children to be born.

Hisoka saw an annoyed look on his master's face. He knew that Illumi never wanted to have kids for as long as he had known the man, but his father insisted that he had to have children to continue growing the Zoldycks family, and ultimately so they could get more fame and money.

As the ball was finally coming to a close, and the room started to clear, I was left to mop the floors. Parties were one of the worst things I had to do for work. It was just so boring and it made me annoyed that I couldn't join in on the fun.

By now it was completely silent. I enjoyed when I was alone because I knew the king and queen wouldn't be watching me. I smiled and closed my eyes as I mopped. Suddenly, I heard footsteps walk up behind me. In a shock, I jolt my eyes and look behind me to see if anyone was there. I unexpectedly felt a hand on my shoulder, so I turned around once again to see the gorgeous assassin I was thinking about all day.
"Oh um what do you need, master Illumi?" I asked bowing down.

"I'm bored. Please, entertain me." Requested the black haired man. putting his hand under his chin after gracefully sitting in his throne.
"Well, I was a jester before, but that was so long ago. I don't do that anymore. My job now is to be a butler, clean and do as my masters say."
Illumi looked at me, raising an eyebrow.
"I am your master aren't I?"
"W-well ok, I will entertain you but I have to clean the ballroom today, how about tomorrow instead?" I reply nervously.
"That is fine." Illumi said as he got up and walked away with a small smirk on his face, carefully hiding it from me so I couldn't notice.

Tomorrow I will be alone with master Illumi, I just hope I can remember how to do my magic tricks for him by then.
