( Emil p.o.v)

I walked down the steps with Anna to see Teddy looking terribly upset about what happened.
'I feel terrible.'
We made our way over to Teddy and began to see the full picture of how upset he truely was, which didn't help with the guilt I had.
"Teddy, I am so sorry you did not win the contest. I just cannot help thinking that I may have played a small part." I said once I was close enough to him.
"I can't help thinking that either." He told.
"He was just trying to help." Anna simply told but he just rolled his eyes at it.
"Luckily, I have conducted a brilliant scheme to sneak us into Fillmore. Just like Stank Man and Daryl did to heckle Julie Andrews at the Kennedy Centre Honours. We simply create a diversion by lighting our farts to set off firecrackers!" I told making him look towards us.
"Why wouldn't we just light the fire crackers directly? And why am I even talking about this? We should not need a scheme. You're a stinking prince, you had Fillmore perform in your own living room."
"Technically it was a grand hall, which is more of a formal...." we both began to explain before being cut off.
"Doesn't matter!"
"Teddy let me make it up to you."
"How?"
"We can figure something out." Anna told.
"You're a prince and his personal guard. Can't you just snap your fingers together and have someone bring us the tickets?"
"Oh, Teddy. It is not as easy as just snapping my fingers." I explained before grabbing a golden phone from my pocket to show him. "I would have to pull out this phone and press that button."
"What? What is that?"
"This is how you access the royal VVIP network. It...." I paused quickly when Anna quickly changed spots and held my hand to help hide the phone while a couple walked past before she let go and I continued. "It is an exclusive service for royals to order anything their hearts desire. Which we can not use."
"What? Yes we can!"
"No we certainly can not. It is not a safe idea." Anna stated.
"Anna is right. It's very important that I keep a low profile. If my or Anna's identity is revealed, I would have to leave America. And I don't want to be leaving anytime soon."
"That's a risk I'm willing to take."
"That's a risk I'm not willing to take, just because you want to see some musical." Anna told stepping between us.
"Will you get out of guard mode. He has an exclusive network that he can use to get those tickets."
"Not really exclusive if the networks been having leaks." She told making him look confused.
'I love when she goes full guard mode. So attractive.'
I gently moved Anna next to me since I knew she would take it as stand down a bit.
"The VVIP network is supposed to be discreet, but recently, there have been some leaks. That is how we know King Archibald was born with a tail." I told as me and Anna gestured a tail behind ourselves while I said it.
"As well as many other things that royals want hidden but aren't allowed those privileges just because of who their family's are." Anna added,
"Wait what?"
"You order one pair of shorts with a custom tail pocket and suddenly your reputation is ruined." We both said as one making each other giggle.
"It's only just three tickets. No one is going to notice."
"Three? Why three?"
"For us Ann." Teddy told as he motioned between all of us.
"Teddy this is too risky. My job is to protect Emil and his identity. You want us to not only risk our identity's but also want to use his status to get tickets." She told.
"Like he hasn't brought you anything extravagant."
"Actually, Emil hand makes all my gifts as I do for him."
"It's true I do. Last time I found a gem stone and was able to make it into a simple ring with some help."
"What?"
"I only take it off when sleeping." Anna added showing the ring she always wear.
'I love that she always wears it. But I should make it up to Teddy, for the mistake I made.
"I suppose since it's my fault for your loss, I am honour bound to make it right."
"Yes! I mean, you lose your honour and what's left?"
"Emil, I advise you think this through. Your honour will not be lost it you do not go through with it."
"Anna, it is my fault he didn't win."
"That outlet was a safety hazard for starters. But is a few tickets to a musical worth more then your identity?"
"Hush now Ann, let Emil make his own decisions." Teddy told placing an arm over her shoulders.
'I don't like that.'
"Get your arm off me before I break it." She told making him quickly do so.
"It was my doing that Teddy couldn't get the tickets, so I need to make it up to him." I told helping to defuse the situation.
"If that's what you so wish. I am bound to support your decisions, no matter how much I think it is an idiotic move and you are risking so much for a musical."
"See, everything will be ok." Teddy stated.
'I know that look and tone. She's disappointed in what I decided to do. This is not good.'

I got the tickets and many other things that Teddy wanted to have. I was able to get away from him especially by the help of Anna, and I followed after her to her room. Once we walked in and she shut the door she whacked my arm.
"You know that can be classed as treason."
"You risked your identity."
"Technically our identity."
"Who cares about my identity!"
"I do."
"Really? You care about either of our identity's being revealed?"
"Of course." I told making her grab a pillow before hitting me with it causing me to create distance between us.
"Because how I see things Emil is, it didn't seem like it."
"Anna put the pillow down."
"Is that an order?"
"You know I don't like ordering you around."
"Oh I am well aware." She told before rushing towards me.
As she neared I tried to back up till I ended up falling into her bed, making me quickly move so I was in the furthest corner from her and shut my eyes.
"Anna I order you to stop." I told once she stood beside her bed.
When nothing happened I opened my eyes to see her just standing there with the pillow now next to me. I could tell she was hurt making me gently take her hand into mine and pull her into my lap, so we could just hold the other.
"I'm sorry I have upset you." I quietly told.
"I can only advise you. Not like I have any real say in anything you do."
"But you do surprisingly. I listen to you more then anyone."
"Yet you still do idiotic things like spend so much money when originally all he would have gotten is two tickets and a very lovely tote bag." She told making me chuckle.
"As long as we do not spend anymore money, we should be able to keep a low profile."
"I don't know Emil. I feel like something bad is going to happen."
"Then it's a good thing we have each other backs." I told as I rested my head on top of hers.
"I suppose." She admitted making me smile.
"Want to watch a movie on the laptop together?"
"Always."
'I'm glad her father suggested we be put together.'
