I stood by the mirror getting into my nice little dress, it was going to be much like a party I suppose, the rejoice across the kingdom at new royals taking the throne, as well as the execution of a madman.
"How the hell do you stop it falling off your head" Thomas complained behind me making me giggle as I saw him in the mirror dressed fairly well too much like how he arrived at the castle to collect me, battling with the crown as it constantly slipped off his head every time he so much as breathed I giggled and took the crown quickly before it tumbled off his head again
"straight back, don't slouch, suck in your stomach," I said making him do as I had said "Then we sit" I smiled sitting it back on his head
"I don't have much of a stomach to suck"
"then take a big breath in and hold it in your diagram" I explained
"I feel so unnatural I'm meant to walk around like this?"
"Welcome to royalty my love" I smiled
"This is how you feel all the time?"
"Yes I do"
"My God, I understand why you always wanna sit down," he says
"Oop!" I giggled catching the crown as it again toppled from his head "alright, then we cheat" I smiled
"what are you doing?"
"They both have little secret sections on the inside in case we have these kinds of troubles, you tie your hair around them, then they can't fall off" I smiled as I began working tieing his hair around it
"Doesn't that mean it's a nightmare to take off though?"
"Yes. but it stops it falling off your head during ceremonies and such" I explained "Just means you need a little help at the end of the day"
"Alright, so long as you help me out of it again"
"I will" I giggled "I promise"
"Good,"
"There we go" I smiled "That now should not fall off your head"
"Thank you,"
"It'll be okay for the execution, and other little rare occasions you'll wear it"
"Arthur wore it all the time"
"well... Arthur had issues. with his confidence around the crown so he liked to wear it all the time" I explained
"Maybe because he wasn't snuggling with his queen"
"How did everyone know about that?" I asked doing my make-up
"Ohh come on it was commonly known before you two were even married that he.... enjoyed his servants and advisors" he explained "How did you think I and the rest of the kingdoms knew you where still a cute little virgin"
"Still"
"I know. Later my queen" he smirked kissing my forehead
