Harry pushed back the covers on Emilia's bed and crawled out, careful not to wake the exhausted princess. She had been training so hard as of late and needed her well deserved rest. He glanced back over his shoulder to see a peacefully sleeping Emilia, laying on her side with her blankets lightly covering her and exposing the naked mounds of her breast. The prince carefully got off the bed, ensuring he did not wake her while he made his way to the shower.

The prince walked into the shower and felt the warm water beat down on him. He stuck his head under the water, wetting his hair before taking in a deep sigh. He was trapped in his own thoughts when he felt a pair of arms envelope his body from behind. The prince glanced down and saw Emilia's hand running down the contours of his abdominal muscles to settle there. She rested her head down on his back and hugged him loosely, feeling the warm water trickle down her body.

"I didn't mean to wake you..." He quietly spoke and placed his hand over top of Emilia's.

"It's alright, Henry. I always sleep better when you are next to me. " Emilia watched him turn around and step back so she could get her body beneath the water. He stood there and took her in, his eyes roving over her toned naked body seeing the way the water trickled down her. She stuck her head beneath the stream and closed her eyes, opening them to find Harry staring at her with an intense gaze that made her both weak in the knees and made her heart skip a beat. "Come here and hold me..." Emilia's icy blue eyes begged him to, craving that secure feeling he gave her.

He closed in the distance between them and wrapped his arms around the dark haired princess. Harry felt Emilia rest his head on his chest, relaxing into his body with one simple breath. She breathed out, a smile stretching across her lips. She had everything she needed right here in front of her. He ran his fingers through her long dark hair in a soothing manner. Emilia closed her eyes and released a heavy breath, relishing in the secure feeling that the prince gave her. She held on to that feeling, knowing that soon she would be without him in a matter of days, days that passed by far too quickly.

"If you are able to take the evening off of training... I was thinking we could go out for dinner at a close friend of mine's restaurant with your friends and mine as well. He is very discreet and will put us in a private area." Harry's chest vibrated while he spoke.

"I would love that, Harry." Emilia picked her head up off of his chest and smiled up fondly at him. "I don't have much time left with you..." She grew somber for a brief moment then forced a smile onto her lips, masking the visible pain of the thought of being without him. "I have two training slots today. This morning and then the afternoon. So taking the girls out for a nice dinner will be fun!"

A look of concern formed in his crystal blue eyes. The prince cupped her cheek tenderly, stroking it softly. "You sure you won't be too exhausted?"

"Even if I am, I need a fun evening out with my friends and you!" Emilia squeezed his hips hard as her smile shone brightly up into his longing eyes.

"I will set it up and send the details to Tristan later." Harry loved seeing the happiness circling in her blue eyes. It would be their first time actually going out together in public and the prince ensured that this would be a safe and private place for them to enjoy some time together with their friends.
