We had been sailing for quiet sometime now, not much was said between the two of us. I was to busy staring at the crown anyways.

"So why did you run away from him this time?" How he knew about my flighty self, I didn't know. A voice in my head yearns to tell him as my heart withdrawals itself from the conversation, "I know you can hear me y/n,"

"He was inconsiderate and that's all you need to know. A relationship only has room for 2 people," the boat sways and the wind blows through my hair. No amount of looking into the shiny gems would fill the hole in my heart.

"I wasn't here to interject myself into your relationship, simply to listen. What if I was your open book, full of empty pages for you to talk to?" His gentle yet meaningful steps echoed off the walls of the wooden float as he stepped closer and closer towards me, seating himself in the chair to side. "So tell me, what's digging at you?" I shook my head refusing to say another word. Tears rushed to the aid of my aching heart, trying to express the pain it was truly enduring, but some things just didn't need to be shared.

"I'm fine," my voice gave me away. Sharply, I jerk my head to the right, doing my best to hold the tears back; though I did not control the hyaline droplets. My waist felt the welcoming embrace of the stranger. I couldn't help but to turn into it and sob at the overwhelming situation. His warmth offered something that the words in my head could never offer.

"Not so fine after all huh? Look, I might not have known you for that long but it doesn't take a genius to know you're hurting to an unimaginable extent. Nobody runs away from the person they adore for no reason, and you don't have to tell me everything. But, what if this really was your 1 chance to get everything off your chest without any consequences?" With one hand on the back of my head and another rubbing up and down my back, I let out everything I had been storing. I wouldn't be able to talk with all of the tears and snot getting in my way.

It might be taking me forever to really calm myself down, but he made me feel like I had all the time in the world to do so. I took every second he gave me before pulling away gently to dry my face. His hands trace their way up my arms till they hovered over mine, soothing my red cheeks by tracing circles with his thumbs.

"H-he treats me like a thing and not a person. It was all going great until his little brother or whoever decided to start taunting him, I can't even remember what happened at this point. But I wanted to go home, being out in the open every night is not only painful but terrifying. I had never heard him yell before that time and all I know is when he did I pulled myself together and left on my horse who's still nowhere to be found. Now you're here and I don't know where I am and I'm with a complete stranger who obviously isn't such a stranger," I lift up the crowd, gesturing to it, ecentuating the fact he was most likely one of the kings.

His soft brown eyes mellowed my feelings out. Things didn't seem to be as bad anymore now that I've gotten it all off of my chest. All this time wasted as the sun starts to set behind the trees, cooling the air around us immensely.

"Y/n... I'm not letting you go back to him until I'm able to have a conversation with the young prince. He has gone through some things undoubtedly, but he has no right to be raising his voice at such a gem or treating you so badly. You aren't a pet, you aren't a thing and deserve just as much respect as the rest of us. Now, there's a few things we can do right now. I can help you find him, I can get you somewhere safe and we can venture out in the morning or you can come back to my kingdom for the time being and rest up there until I can sort Jimin out,"

"Yoongi... is he close to here?" The prince shakes his head no and I sigh as he pears behind me, letting out a slight chuckle.

"Well, his kingdom might not be, but the devil himself sure is," he gestures to a figure in the darkness that rode upon my white shire. I squint trying to see better just as yoongi looks up and waves at us riding along the river Bank at a slower paced wall.

"Look what I found scurrying about. I knew she looked familiar," I take a breath and wave to him.

"Let me dock the boat and we can walk to the kingdom from here. That way we can discuss this with Yoongi as well," I nod my head Watching him walk away out of the corner of my eye before rubbing my arms, knowing this was about to be a long night.
