BOY-friends (Wilmon-young royals)💖🤴

Chapter 13

"Are you ready darling?" The queen calls. Erik is putting on his blue tie. He is going to visit Hillerska today. After a very very long call with his little brother, who was trying to get him to come to his school, he finally agreed. He is a busy man because of course he is, he is the crown prince. But Wilhelm was having a rough time and Erik wants to be there for him. There has never really been anyone for him when he needed it. So that's why he wants to be that person for his little brother.

But things seem to be a lot better with Wille already. It must be because of his mysterious crush Wilhelm was meeting up with the last time he visited. He seems to enjoy being at Hillerska more ever since then. Erik can't help his curiousness. He is definitely going to ask Wilhelm about it today. A good guess would have been the beautiful Felice, who Wille had a crush on when they were younger. But something tells him that this mystery person is someone else.

--

Let's go back to last night. Simon was just asked the feared question: "truth or dare?". His answer being truth gave Felice the opportunity to ask the question she's been wanting to ask for a while.

"Why does Wilhelm like you and not me?"

What?

Simon's face is pale and his hands are shaking. His whole body is shaking. What is he supposed to say to that? Well, I think it's because the prince is a little fruity.

How would she even know that Wilhelm likes him? Does he even still like him? It doesn't really matter. What matters is that she just asked him that question and everybody is staring at him, waiting for an answer.

Before Simon can say anything Sara jumps up. She had been watching the scene. Even though she is more than tipsy, she suddenly felt very sober when her brother was asked this question. If this goes wrong it can ruin a lot for more people than just her brother.

"Yeah you have been hanging out with the prince a lot. You have really become BFFs haven't you?" She asks. She's trying to sound like she is very drunk and making fun of her brother. She is actually trying to save him.

Simon smiles but it doesn't reach his eyes. He looks at her like he could sink through the floor but also the tiniest bit thankful for what she just said. Of course, they like each other as friends. Best mates is what they are. Totally platonic. Platonic with a capital P. Not cuddling, kissing, making out at all.

"No, no, no that is not what I-" Felice starts, but then Wilhelm comes walking into the room. He's panting as if he had just ran a mile, but his shaking hands indicate that he's just very nervous for some reason.

"Hey, what's going on?" He tries to play it cool, but you can hear in his voice and how it trembles that he's not. It's completely silent. Everyone stares at him. Nobody knows what to say or how they would even make a sound.

"When talking about the devil." Felice walks up to Wilhelm. She doesn't even realize she just said that wrong. She is very drunk and you can see it in everything she does.

"Listen Wilhelm. I like you very very much." It takes her a while to say this. She's pronouncing every word like she's trying to teach english to someone who's never heard the language before, blinking slowly. Wilhelm looks around the room and at Felice, confused. His eyes meet Simon's and he looks terrified. That makes Wilhelm even more scared of what is about to happen. Felice moves on with what she wants to say.

"You know that I do. It's just too bad that you're..." she stops talking.

"You're..." she suddenly looks very unwell. She tries to talk but her body won't let her. And then she throws up all over the floor and Wilhelm's shoes. It's gross. Everybody in the room groans and looks away. Felice looks like she just died inside and her soul left her body. Wilhelm holds her, because she's weak now. Sara and Simon who were both standing close get to them.
