"Well the story is quite simple really." Adrien looked down at me with a smile that I just had to return back.
Everyone listened intently, staring as if we were made from the rarest gem and was just standing there.
"Well, one day she visited the palace for one of my father's galas and I remember quite well as if it were yesterday, she were very curious about one of the vases that were laying around. I was strolling through the palace when I saw her. She wore the most beautiful- dress." He took his eyes off me and to the camera, where the host awed.
I squinted my eyes, most beautiful dress? I wore a catering dress! Were he trying to make a fool of me or make me upset? Or was it purely for the public? When I looked up at the grin on his face I couldn't help but think of removing it off, somehow, it would most certainly have to be a bit brutal nevertheless.
He continued.
"As I approached her, I could tell that she were a bit hesitant to try and touch the vase, and I knew that she very much wanted to. Because when she caught my gaze, I could see her, she were easy to read. For me at least."
He stood there, feeling proud of himself and his speech. Easy to read? I am not some weak damsel in distress! Sure, I loved to read about a lot of them because in every romance book you find nowadays it's all about a powerful man and weak women who can't even stand on her own. Of course that's just how we are seen though? Would I care to change that view? Maybe.. who knows.
I cleared my throat and turned to look up at Adrien, "Actually, darling, I thoroughly remember you stammering over your words. Not to mention, how you insisted on invading my private time on the oh so lovely balcony in the palace. By the way, I must have forgotten to let your father know how truly beautifully it was, I really did appreciate it." I gave an all too loving giggle.
I then looked up at Adrien, the sides of his smile twitched. And I fought hard to not let a huge unlady-like grin form on my lips.
"Don't you remember that detail too, Adrien?"
I could see him take in a breath then turn to me, "I believe I have a slight memory, though I am not entirely sure." He looked back at the camera.
The host gave a chuckle, "woah now, these two have a pretty interesting story for us all. But I think that's enough for now, why don't we let our special guests enjoy the rest of their night!" The host made a hand signal for the cameras to shut off. He said a few words to the camera man before turning back to us and giving a curtsy.
"Thank you, Prince Adrien and Lady Marinette, it was such an honor to have you on my show!" He gave a huge grin. "And such a pleasure your highness." He gave another more deep bow to Adrien.
"It was my pleasure." Adrien tilted his head down then looked back up.
"Indeed it was." I gave a bigger smile.
"Enjoy your night." The television show host stumbled away.
The eyes of the crowed around us quickly looked away as they caught Adrien's gaze. Hm, why on earth would they turn away from him? He looks as harmless as a miniature puppy. Ah yes, it was probably his status.
"Shall we, darling?" Adrien looked to his side, down at me.
I cringed at the word, but shook my head a yes nonetheless.
We made our way forward through the crowd that magically made a path for us. This attention and formality was going to take some time getting used to. But I'd say that I was doing pretty decent for my new status.
We strolled until we came to a refreshment table. "Would you care for anything?" Adrien gestured to the mini platters with mini little finger foods. I scrunched my face.
