   I woke up the next day expecting to have a sore back but I found myself in a comfortable bed. I look over the edge of the bed to see a sleeping Technoblade. I sighed and got out of bed quietly I grabbed a change of clothes and put my hand on the handle of the door.

   "You can change here. I'll leave the room." Technoblade spoke up in a sort of soft voice standing up.

   "Thanks." I say as he walks past me leaving the room.

   I quickly change and leave the room wondering around the castle. I find the kitchen and take an apple from the counter. I continued walking throughout the castle mapping it out in my head. I walked into the courtyard that had a beautiful garden. There was a little pond so I decided to sit at the edge. I took off my shoes and dipped my feet into the cold water. I sat there admiring the garden and thinking what I would be doing if I was back at home. I would probably be at the bakery with Niki.

   My thoughts got interrupted by someone clearing their throat next to me. I looked over to see Techno standing there with his hair in a messy braid. I nodded at him and he sat next to me, his legs cris crossed. We sat in silence but not uncomfortable silence. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath of the fresh cold air. When I opened my eyes I could see Techno looking at me out of the corner of my eye. I looked over at him and he looked away.

   "Was there something you needed?" I ask.

   "Nope I was going to sit here." He said. "I wasn't expecting anyone to be here."

   "I'm surprised no one comes here. It's very nice." I told him.

   "It is Athena" The nickname he gave me and I dreaded.

   "Ok Coeus." I say using the nickname I gave him.

   "You remembered the nickname?"

   "Of course. You can't forget something you said almost everyday." I told him and I could see his mouth curl into a smile under his mask. "Did you want to dip your feet in?"

   "You'd probably make fun of my feet."

   "I won't make fun of your feet. I promise." I told him. He sighs sitting there thinking about it. "If we're getting married shouldn't we put old habits aside?"

   "I guess." He says. He lets out a long sigh before untieing his shoes. He slowly takes off the shoe to reveal a hoof.

   "You have a hoof?" I question.

   "Yeah." He says quietly. "Sorry I have to go." He starts to stand up.

   "No." I say and grab his hand. He paused for a minute then sat back down putting his feet in the water. We sit in silence but not the same silence as before. There was a little tension in the air.

   "I'm a piglin hybrid." He states.

   "What?"

   "I'm part piglin." He said looking me in the eyes. I was going to respond but someone cleared their throat behind us.

   "Sorry if I'm interrupting." Dream states briefly. "But the king has called for you both."

   Techno nods dismissing the guard and puts his shoes back on. He stands as I finish with my shoes and holds out a hand. I accept his hand with a smile standing. We walk to the throne room and he pushes the large doors open. Entering the room I see the king sitting on his throne.

   "Ah mate there you are." Phil says to Techno.

   "You called?"

   "Yes I wanted to tell you both that there is going to be a ball tomorrow night for the celebration of the marriage."

   "Are there going to be other kingdoms here?" I asked.

   "The King Kong Balls Kingdom will be coming along with most the village" Phil replies. He dismisses us and we go our separate ways. I head towards Nikis room to tell her the news.
