Chapter Eight: Finding me in you

Bianca Ashadeep's POV

"Mom, can I have every flower in the palace?" a young She Summerian questioned.

"Soon Baby, when the right time comes you will be having every flower here at the kingdom" the young one's mother answered.

"Why can't I have it now?" she pouted her baby rose lips which made her mother smile sweetly.

"You'll have it when you created a very unique flower." she explained.

"How can I do it?" the young one delightfully asked.

"Why are you going to fight me back? Prove them that you are worthy? Do you think that can change everything they see in you?" the Queen's voice suddenly sounded furious.

"Mom?" the once child now a teen asks.

"deorc hitta!"

"No!" I suddenly shouted. So, it was all a dream them? I thought mother is gone forever.

"Bianca! Are you doing alright?" someone surprisingly bumped in.

"Sorry, I disturbed you" phew... Just Ice.

"Bad dreams?" he suddenly asked out of nowhere. Why does he has those eyes? Those eyes as if they want to say something. As if he was worrying?

I shook my head from my thoughts. "Yeah, just a nightmare." I answered back giving a sweet smile.

"That'll be gone" he smiled handsomely. Darn, those kind of smile. It's irritating.

"Will you not smile like that?" I begged him. Even though I sounded harsh.

"Why not?"

"It's...kinda...ir...rita...ting" I said with a twisted tongue.

"Oh?" he then smiled playfully, "by the way breakfast is ready." he said like he was reporting to me and then left.

I took a look around the room. And honestly, the room looked like a girl's room. My room is nothing compared to this.

"Oh Bianca!" I shifted my stare from the room to his call "I forgot to say—"

"Say what? Is it important?" I asked him assuming there might be ground rules. Or things I shouldn't touch. Or maybe he wants me to—

"I forgot to say good morning" I heard him say. But by the time I was to look back, he's gone like a ghost figure.

"Forgot to say good morning," I mimicked" that's funny" and then I laughed silently, enough for me to hear.

A few minutes passed before I went out of the room. Seeing the whole figure of the house's internal, I wondered where did he slept.

"Hey, breakfast is ready" he called with a high tone, opposing his facial emotion. I nodded in answer.

While eating, all I've been doing besides from eating is glance at him secretly. He seemed so quiet. "Do you perhaps, or are you somehow facing a problem?" I confronted him.

With his eyes full of questions. He didn't even bother to answer my question. "what I mean is...you're...not...your usual self."

"I don't get it," he confusingly answered.

Before he could utter a word, I spoke instantly "—you used to be the kind of person who always smiles—?"

"What do you mean? Awhile ago you just said that it's irritating."

"Really? I said that?" I questioned him. Why on Azealia did I say that?!

"Uhuh..." he answered back, turning his focus to his food. If he only knew he has a nice smile. Wait, Did I just say that?

While talking to myself or maybe thinking to my self I heard a soft laugh from the guy with me. I suddenly gave him a queer eyes.

"Ah...ehem...I just...I...thought of something" he said with a smile even though he somehow has a twisted tongue.

I just nodded in response.

Ice Frotia's POV

I can't believe I just heard that.

"If he only knew he has a nice smile" I laughed softly as I heard her thoughts. It's funny that she's the type of person who talks to herself silently.

After hearing me laugh she gave me a questioning expression "Ah...ehem..I just...I...thought of something" this is peculiar, I just stuttered. I thought girls are the only one stuttering. Well, I guess I'm wrong.

Clearing out my thoughts, she nodded in answer.

This day, she started acting...weird..? Just like when I was preparing breakfast after my constant peeking inside the bedroom, she seem—uneasy. Then she suddenly got irritated with my smiles, why that's a bit offending. Well I can do nothing, she's my princess. Princess of this cottage, and I'm the servant of this cottage. A guest is a guest.

"I'll clean this now, where's the dishwashing area?" she then cutted in my thoughts.

"No, I'll do the dishes," I respond "you're my guest."

"As far as I could remember, this cottage is 'our' hideout—" she then reason out "—so, it means I am 'not' a guest."

"I didn't say that this is a hideout."

"What? What about the smiling yiu did last time? Wasn't that supposed to be a yes?" she piled up tons of questions expressing furiously.

I silently looked at her "Okay, this is not a hideout" she gave up "but please, let me do my dishes. I owe you a lot already"

"Again, you're my princess. So you are not to do anything" I told her lowering my temper.

"Since when did I became your princess?" did I just said my princess? Darn. Me and my enormous mouth.

"W-what I mean is....you're the princess...." I paused seeing her stare intensely "you're the.......prin-cess.....of the house, yes the house" nice one Ice, keep it up! Darn.

"H-hey, y-your red! Are you sick? Is something wrong? Let me check it." I went closer to her seeing her face turn red, very red.

"N-no! I-I'm fine, I'll just wash this" she then stepped away from me "w-where is the d-direction to th-the dishwashing area?"

"West from your side." I answered her back, literally back. Why? That's what I see, she never looked back.

She really got me worried. Though she looks cute when she's red.
