"My prince" a young man said as he entered the prince's chambers. He smiled towards the younger man with sunset orange hair. "Yes Felix?" He asked politely and put the brush down. "Sorry my prince. Did I interrupt you during prep hours?" Felix asked sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his neck nervously. The orange haired lad smiled and shook his head, "I always have time for you Feli. C'mon, I want you to call me by my nickname" He got up and made his way towards Felix, hugging him tightly. "You never call me prince unless we're in front of my parents" Felix snickered and hugged back. "Sorry Tyler. I mean TyTy" Tyler smiled happily and buried his face in his neck.

"You have a new body" he observed and pulled away from him. "How'd you know it was me?" Felix asked and stroked Tyler's face with his hand. "Pfft-" Tyler covered his mouth to stifle a laugh, "You always have the marks under your eyes" Felix laughed and bumped their foreheads together. "You always know how to sneak past my parents" Tyler whispered softly. "I wish I could just see you though"

"You know I'm basically only a spirit. A demon spirit, but a spirit nonetheless" Felix shrugged. "I can't really do much besides letting specific people see me and then possessing things. Plus your parents hate me." he took Tyler's hands and held them in his. "But I love you. So I'm willing to use as many bodies as I can just to see you and touch you again"

Tyler felt his face flush and his heart start thumping in his chest. Felix always knew how to make him feel... nice. "I know" Tyler smiled softly, "I love you too" They leaned into each other and connected their lips.

Tyler yawned as he sat up in his bed. "Felix?" He called out softly and looked around. The spot next to him was empty, but if he knew Felix, he was probably trying to keep his parents happy. Tyler touched his face, he was still flushed and naked. He threw off his blankets and started to get ready for the day. "Still a prince after all" he muttered to himself, but not before admiring the marks that Felix made on his body.

As he was putting on his dress shirt, a frantic knock came at the door. "Come in!" Tyler called out and one of his Father's knights came in. "Young prince!!" He spoke frantically. "Please come quick! It's your parents" Tyler stared at him. "They've been assassinated!!"

A crown was set upon Tyler's head. "I bestow you. The crown of your father and his father. May you bring joy to your people and rule with a mighty fist for you are, King Tyler" The crowd applauded and screams of joy echoed throughout the palace. Tyler held his Father's staff and smiled towards them. His eyes grazed his audience before him and landed on a figure staring up at him, just smiling. Tyler felt his heart flutter, Felix. Felix winked at him and started clapping along with everyone else.

Tyler felt his face burn slightly. He knew Felix done this, it was his birthday present to him.

Experimenting! I'm really fond of Tyler and Felix's relationship.
