I'll fight for you

my mind is a mess. half of it is telling me to keep fighting for him but the other side tells me to stop, that is useless to fight for something that is not there. but there is something there. i know it. he feels something, right?

i- i cant loose anything else. he'll break your heart again. no, he wont, he'll fight too, we both will fight for this

"i can't believe you all are already leaving" Leo appear from the nothing, "Aillard is gone, Takara gets married in some hours, you have suitors already, I'm getting old" he is now sitting on the edge of my comfy and big bed

a chuckle scape my mouth, "don't worry, Josh and Colette are here" i close my book and place it on the desk at my right, "and I'm not getting married, not if not because i love him" before i took a seat next to my favorite brother my eyes traveled for a second to the shinning armor and its owner

"y/n" i know the speech that is coming as the palm of my hand

"i have to do what's best for the kingdom" i try to mock fathers voice, making him giggle but agreed. "Leo, i have no duty here, people wont care who i marry or who i don't" i can feel more than two eyes on me, "why cant i marry who i love?"

he is speechless. but its Leo, words always drop on his head like grass. but his mouth stayed opened, just the first syllable going out

we have to go, another wedding is waiting for us

"you look stunning, by the way" he never fails to flatter me

—— ♡ ——

the decorations where the same as last week wedding. but there is something different this time, this time I'm not quite against love. a part of me still thinks its bullshit but another one thinks its beautiful and real

this time i search for Tewksbury since the very beginning, since i step the church, but apparently he didn't came today

in his place i found Javadd, maybe it will be awkward but that night is on the past, there is nothing to make this an uncomfortable moment

but apparently the knight don't think the same. maybe he is a great actor but i have spent enough time with him to know how he is felling, although i may be wrong

"Y/n" the dark haired prince greeted me, i greeted him back

we shared a small talk before we had to pass to our seats for the ceremony to start. Takara looks stunning, her dress is so beautiful and combined with her natural beauty, the sun is jealous of how she shines today

her future husband, prince Niall James Horan, is handsome, they make an absolute gorgeous couple

the vows, an script of course, but they still where beautiful. this time i was the only one staring, no gaze back from the brunette knight. not until the end

—— ♡ ——

"i see your love life got better than mine" Zayn said, sitting next to me on the big celebration party

"good joke" i flash a smile to him before my gaze returned to the couples on the dance floor, my head daydreaming of a romantic dance with the love of my life

"but- what about that exchange of glasses" my attention back to the dark prince, "on the ceremony, that knight" his eyes signaling Thomas, "looked at you in a way i have never seen before" everyone says the same. "he is in love with you, and you are in love with him, anyone can say that"

maybe try telling him so that he knows, because apparently everyone except him knows

"how is everything in Bradford?" changing theme, my specialty. fortunately, we never reached that theme again

—— ♡ ——

"Y/n" he called me, but I'm not turning, not yet

i decided to try something. i hope it function

"Y/n" he called once again, "where are you going? the party is back there" here

i stop and he arrived next to me in a couple of seconds. before he could say something about heading back to the party i decided to talk

"is a beautiful night, isn't it" he looks at me as if i was crazy

i walk us a little afar of the chateau where the party is taking place. for what, to dance, to spend time ALONE, maybe tell him how i feel

"Y/n we shouldn't-" no time for that

"did you know Dolunay means full moon" i can feel the gaze Zayn mentioned, "it's a Turkish word" my eyes left the moon to see the bot next to me

my body moved slowly closer to his, with caution like if he was a wild animal that could hurt me anytime. I'm finally inches away of him, i gently place my arms around his neck, my eyes not leaving his

"what are you doing" his brown eyes shining brighter than the stars above us

"dancing" i start swinging at the rhythm of my heart

he then place his hands on my waist and start swinging with me, a smile on our faces. the dance became more a dance with the moment, till the point where my dress is flying on the air and my feet are no touching the floor anymore. its like if we where flying. its just the two of us, nothing more, no worries

we shared laughs, lots

the music we cared on our hearts started to slow down, my head is now resting on his chest and his is resting on top of mine

its a moment I'm never going to forget

i lift my head to look at him, our eyes looked until i decided to look down at his lips, i know he got nervous by that action but still start to lean, our lips are slowly getting closer, they want to dance

but they couldn't

"your majesty" a male voice spoke from behind me. Tom immediately step away from me and i turned to see the blond knight behind me and try to smile as if nothing happened, "the celebration is over, you are heading back to the palace" he tried to act the more normal he could after seeing an almost kiss of the princess and a-

is that why-

"thank you" i said after noticing they where waiting for my response and we started our way to the carriage that was just waiting for us

I'm never going to forget this night
