George's POV

Wednesday
June 9th
7:17 AMI'm accompanying Clay with his target practice. I admire his bow work as he hits almost every target right in the center. It's like every time he let an arrow off, time itself stopped. He aimed so effortlessly, it was so graceful every time he let and arrow fly.
He let's his last arrow off, it obviously strikes the middle of the target board. He turns around to me, noticing me staring at him admirably. His cheeks turn pink as I jolt up from the rock i'm sitting on and get up right to his face.
"Teach me..!"
"Heh... woah... I mean- agh... I don't know... you could get hurt and i'm not very good at teaching..."
His words fade quiet as he stares into my eyes."C'monnnn!! Teach me!!"
I shake his arm, begging."It's an order!"
I say stubbornly."Ugh... guess I can't say no~"
As he walks behind me to get the arrows he shot, he glides his hand across my collar bone.The knight tosses an arrow to me. I stroke across the body of the arrow, not noticing that the blond had positioned himself behind me. I gave me the bow and wrapped his arms around me to show me how to hold it.
"So, this is the grip of the bow... you hold with your dominant hand..."
He reaches up and grips it with his right hand."Uh... i'm left handed..."
I say sheepishly."Well then, for your sake, i'll use my left as well."
He switches his grip from his right to his left. I put my hand underneath his. The grip barley having enough room for both of our hands."And with your non dominant hand, you pull the string..."
He places his right on the bowstring, so do I."Pull back with your index and your middle~"
His breath hot against the back of my neck. I don't immediately notice it because i'm too focused on the bow. We pull the string back and send the arrow flying, hitting the target in front of us."That was pretty good!"
He says, his arms still wrapped around me. I just now become wise of the position we're in, and immediately jump away."AGH-!"
I grunt loudly, My face burning red. I hear Clay wheezing behind me. A laugh that I initially found annoying, but have grown to love."You're... so adorable~"
He says through his laughs. I glare at him, my face still pink. He walks over to me and ruffles my hair under my crown. Ruffles turn to pets. He's straight up petting me now. I pull his hand off my head, quietly wishing I didn't. It felt good.In fact, I had recently found myself more fond of my knight than I was before. Before I could barley stand his annoying laugh and constant blabbing, but I catch myself staring or even just thinking about him. I recognize my recent strange feelings, but I don't think all that much of it. I pass it off as I'm just having fun.
As I'm lost in thought, I feel bits of water fall onto my back.
"Eugh... It's raining. I should probably get you back to the castle before it starts coming down too hard."
As just at that, we're off. I sit behind Clay on his horse and wrap my arms around his waist so I don't fall as the horse gallops away towards the castle.When we finally arrive, my knight sees me off as I walk into my room to get ready for bed...
This one was rlly short. only 609 words (nice) Get ready for the next one tho... hehe ;)
