You sat there in your bed with your torso aching as hell, which was rapped in bandages. You were pondering about what happened at the Harvest Moon Festival. Who would hire someone to take a potshot at the Crown Prince of the Ars Goecia? Ugh, fucking everyone. Then Penultimo came in.

Penultimo: Uhm sire there's someone here to see you.

(Y/N): Send'em in.

Finally, you were feeling awful, and sleeping isn't working.

Then a blur of grey came rushing through the door.

Octavia: (Y/N)!

How the hell did she get here?

(Y/N): Via! Good to see you.

Octavia: Dad told me what happened.

(Y/N): Yea, assassin took a potshot. Wait how did you get here?

Octavia: A friend gave me a lift.

(Y/N): Loona?

Octavia: Yes, wait you know her?

(Y/N): Met her at the festival, she outside?

Octavia nodded. You then tapped the intercom button.

(Y/N): Penultimo, send the hellhound inside.

Octavia then put her hand on my wound.

(Y/N): Ow!

Octavia: Oh I'm sorry.

(Y/N): Its fine Via, I'm just glad your here. To be honest I'm surprised you came here so quick.

Octavia blushed.

(Y/N): Anyway I'm still wondering who hired that assassin?

Octavia: Uhm, I know...

(Y/N): Really who?

She knows, now you can track them down and destroy them.

Octavia: Uhm...

She paused

Octavia: My Mum.

I retract my previous thought.

(Y/N): Ah. Uhm.

Octavia: She hired him to kill my dad but...

(Y/N): Crikey, your family is messed up Via! No wonder you wanted to stay with me.

Octavia: No, thats not why I...

(Y/N): Why you what?

Octavia: N-nothing!

(Y/N): Could you help me up?

Octavia: Ok

She had use alot of force to pull you up. She supported you long enough to get you to the living room.

(Y/N): What a day

You said as you and Octavia slumped down on the sofa next to eachother. Opposite Loona who was on her phone.

Penultimo: Sir, there's a call for you.

You picked up the receiver.

(Y/N): Hello?

Anthony: (Y/N) I saw the news! How are you?

(Y/N): Oh I'm fine Anthony.

Anthony, Anthony Rabl. He's been a friend of yours for years. He's also part of the Goecia family, and a fellow Prince aswell. Based of AnthonyRabl6 we've become friends recently. Look out for my character in his romance book.

Anthony: Good, I was just wondering if you'd like to come to the annual Ball with me and Zoe?

(Y/N): Tomorrow right?

Anthony: Yes

(Y/N): I'll attend, since I'm such a prestigious guest.

You said sarcastically.

Anthony: Your not wrong, double the people will come if you do.

(Y/N): Hehe, so true. Oh I think I'll also bring someone, keep Zoe company.

Anthony: Sure see you then.

Octavia: Who was that?

(Y/N): An old friend.

Octavia: You know that ball? Is that the royal ball of hell.

(Y/N): Yes.

Octavia: Attended by Lucifer himself!

(Y/N): Yes and I was wondering if you would accompany me?

Octavia: Hell yes!

Then out of nowhere Loona said...

Loona: Just kiss already.

Octavia and (Y/N): WTF!!!

Loona: What?

Octavia: We aren't dating!

Loona: Not yet at least.

Feeling embarrassed you fled to your study.

(Y/N): If you two need me I'll be in my study.

When he left Octavia spoke.

Octavia: Why?

Loona: Come on admit it, you always blush around him and you always bring him up when you text me.

Octavia: That doesn't mean I love him!

Loona: Yea you do, you just don't want to admit it.

Octavia calmed and sat down.

Octavia: I'm sorry your right, I do love him.

She sighed.

Loona: Look, if you love him. Chances are he feels the same way about you.

Octavia: Yea maybe your right.

Then (Y/N) poked his head around the corner.

(Y/N): Penultimo, can you send Octavia and Loona home? Stolas will be getting worried.

Penultimo: Right away.

(Y/N): Bye Octavia!

Octavia: Bye!

When they got in the car Octavia whispered too herself.

Octavia: Love you.

Back in your study you couldn't help but think. You had been longing to see her for so long, but you were unsatisfied. You didn't want to just be with her, you loved her.
