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

Leave

The ride went unusually slow, even though they took the shorter route.

Maybe because absolutely no one was talking to each other.

Anna thought she was the reason everyone had stopped talking, but it would be too awkward to start up another conversation from literally nowhere.

Prince Ray and Prince Oliver both started passing each other looks half way, as if they were talking to each other telepathically.

Oliver nodded his head to Anna, and lifted up his eyebrows giving Ray a 'Hehe' look.

And Ray gave him back a 'What do you mean' look.

In reply Oliver was like 'You know what I mean'.

'I really don't' Ray shrugged back.

"Is everything alright with you two?" Norman asked when he noticed the facial expressions they passed to each other.

"Yeah, it's fine." Ray replied.

"Oh that's a relief, I thought there was something going on..." Norman smiled.

"I wish there was. This ride is so boring." Oliver moaned.

Everyone agreed, except for Emma who was still sleeping.

"How about we have a race?" Oliver suggested.

"But what about Emma?" Norman pointed.

"She could fall off! Or get kidnapped why we aren't looking! Or something worse!" He exclaimed.

Anna looked down at her feet.

"Then I'll do a race between Ray and I. You can ride Emma as slowly as you want." Oliver got off his horse and scooped Emma up, then he placed her behind Norman on his horse.

"But...you guys are going to leave me alone?" Norman asked.

"You have Emma." Ray said.

"Exactly, alone with Emma." Norman blushed.

"She's sleeping for goodness sake!" Oliver patted her head.

After a while of convincing, Norman finally agreed to watch the race and travel on his own with Emma.

"So, Ray, you up for the race now?" Oliver asked.

"Yeah...oh wait, Anna do you want to stay with Norman? I'm pretty fast with Midnight." When Ray said those words it sounded as if nothing had happened to him before.

Like he hadn't been hurt.

Or crashed by a chandelier before.

Anna shook her head and stayed where she was.

She would rather not be in a 2 meter range with Emma.

"Ready Steady Go!" Norman shouted and then clapped his hands.

As the horses started to gallop forward.

Ray was right, he is pretty fast.

He's doing me a big favour, running away like this.

Every time Anna felt like she was going to fall off, she held on tighter which made Ray remember she was there, and slowed down.

"Slowing down eh?" Oliver asked.

"No, I'm just being considerate!" Ray replied as Midnight continued to run.

They were at a equal pace.

I hope I am not going too fast for her.
