The Royal Promise...The Promised Neverland Noremma : Rayanna

Broken

Prince Ray's face had been really hot since he had talked to Norman. They hadn't argued in a while, but even when they did Norman didn't really say anything back it was normally just Ray being angry at everything.

He felt his hot cheeks.

And then he felt himself walking to Anna's sick bed.

He had told himself,

It's only because I don't have a Quarter anymore and this technically not my Kingdom...

But he had been going there more often, and it has seemed like a hobby or something he just did on instinct to comfort himself.

This time when he got there, Anna was awake.

And she looked pretty surprised to see him.

So was Prince Ray.

She's awake...?

"Uhm...Morning? I mean, it's actually the evening but um...H-hi. " Prince Ray felt his voice crack and he waved slowly.

"...your alive?" Was the only thing she said.

"Yeah. I guess you only saw me when I was crushed by a massive chandelier." He started nervously scratching his head.

"Did you think I was dead?" He added.

She nodded and wiped her eyes.

"I...kind of thought you were dead too. You were stabbed you know." He replied.

Anna looked down at his leg, and the way he was standing.

He hurt his leg because of me...
Probably when he got hit by the jewels.

I should have continued to look for him under the debris, maybe then he wouldn't have gotten hurt...

"We don't know who stabbed you though, and it wasn't one of the attackers, it was possibly someone in the Kingdom at the time." Prince Ray informed her.

Anna's mouth opened, but her voice didn't come out.

S...should, I tell him it was Emma?

Should I tell him that I'm supposed to be in Princess Emma's place?

But he wouldn't believe me...

I don't think I should.

Emma has people who adore her, and her parents, everyone would believe her.

"Are you okay, Anna? It looked like you wanted to say something..." Prince Ray took a step forward.

Anna smiled and shook her head.

"So...I better be going now." Ray turned around.

"W-wait!" Anna blurted and then put her hand to her mouth.

"Yes, what is it?" Prince Ray looked back.

"I..."

Days Earlier.

"Giraffe, am I going crazy?" Emma's head had hurt, and she has been walking with Giraffe for a while now.

When she went back to her Kingdom, her parents congratulated her on the job well done.

But she immediately left after that.

Her head had a head ache.

And she was feeling very dizzy.

"Are you alright Princess?" Mistress Krone asked, putting her hands on Princess Emma's shoulder the day before she left.
