"The prince has found a male wife"
After 10 months of searching for a wife, the male second born of the royal family, Nathaniel Hawthorne, is to marry the young male, Archer Hastings
(Disclaimer: This is a BL (male same-sex love), if you do not like...
After spending the rest of the day in the tailor room, Archer left to go back into his chambers, wearing his evening robe. As he entered the room, he saw Nathaniel laying in bed reading a book. "Ah, wife. I presume your session with the tailor is over?" Nathaniel asked.
'Oh god, this is going to get weird' thought Archer before saying, "Uh yes, it is" he then walked over to the empty side of the bed and got under the sheets.
A few seconds of silence were shared until Nathaniel spoke. "The wedding will be in five months. Tomorrow we'll be meeting with the wedding planner"
"Oh...how wonderful" replied Archer.
Nathaniel held Archer's hand and looked him in the eye. "Do you love me, Archer?" he asked.
"Huh? W-well I'm not quite sure. I mean this all happened so fast, I-" stammered Archer.
Nathaniel took a few seconds before letting go of Archer's hand. "Have some rest, today must've drained your energy" he said then turned his back to Archer and laid down.
"A-alright" Archer said, then turned and laid down as well.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ah yes, the dawn of a new day. The best thing of the morning, correct? Wrong.
Archer woke up to see that his future husband was not laid next to him. 'Next morning and he's gone, how welcoming' he thought. Archer then got out of bed and checked his closet for a piece of presentable clothing to wear this morning. 'That tailor really meant business' he thought, looking through his new clothes.
After being indecisive, he decided to wear this piece of clothing but after he bathes (obviously).

A fresh bath and beautiful clothing, at least that is one thing Archer would look forward to every morning.
As Archer took a step outside the royal palace, he saw his future husband, Prince Nathaniel, standing right near a carriage. Archer was confused at first, but he remembered that they are to meet the wedding planner this morning.
"Is my arrival overdue?" Archer said as he approached the carriage.
"Oh not at all, only by an hour or so" Nathaniel replied. "Morning, Archer"
"Morning" Archer said as he bowed his head. "Shall we?"
"We shall"
With those words, the coachman opened the carriage doors for the prince and the young master to enter. Nathaniel, being the gentleman he is, let the Archer enter first, and of course he entered behind him. The coachman closed the doors, got atop the carriage front, and stirred the way to the wedding planners area of work.
"How many successful weddings has this wedding planner... planned?" asked Archer.
"About 30 to 35" Nathaniel replied.
"And how many failed?"
"None as of now"
"Huh, remarkable"
"Oh right, how could I forget? Archer, have you had your ring size checked before?"
"Not at all, mainly because I hadn't thought there'd be an occasion that required my ring size"
"Is that supposed to mean you had no intentions of marriage?"
"Yes exactly" 'And I am only agreeing to marry you because I was raised to not disrespect the royal family.. which honestly sounds like bullshit'
"Oh, so you never found any interest in love?"
"Why don't we focus on our arrival at the wedding planners?"
"Right, of course, forgive me for the number of questions"
"It's alright"
...the atmosphere inside the carriage is a bit tense don't you think?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh what a long day of planning a wedding. The theme, the cake, the avenue, the diamond rings, the marriage attire, and all of the above. All the decision making is finally over and done with. There were some disagreements here and there but they were over minor issues, no big deal. Now all the to be wedded have to do is wait for their special day to arrive...in five months, no big deal. They can hopefully wait right?
But all Archer wanted to do is run his bath and wash away all of his thoughts. He was drained as he entered the palace alongside Nathaniel. The prince seemed untroubled. It's as if he hadn't been sitting in a coach for a mile and a half, stood up for about two hours, and rid another mile and a half. He seems to have done this before.
"Is the prince not tired?" Archer asked as he turned to his future husband.
"Not at all" the prince replied.
'Such firm responses. No signs of relaxation whatsoever' Archer thought.
"Oh, back so early?" a voice said.
The prince and the young master turned to see who that voice belongs to, and it was none other than the 3rd prince himself, Prince Brandon.
"Brandon. Afternoon" Nathaniel said.
"Afternoon" followed Archer.
"Come on, you two deserve a break from all the dues you had to do today" Brandon said as he walked into the lounge room.
The princes and the young master sat down in the lounge room, as they patiently waited for their beverages to be served to them along with some scones. A standard afternoon don't you think?
"So, how are you feeling after Nathaniel's marriage proposal Archer?" Brandon asked as he sat with a perfect posture.
"Umm, well I was expecting an engagement ring" the young master replied.
"Wow, the marriage is already falling apart" Brandon said, teasingly.
"Oh haha, very funny of you" Nathaniel said.
A maid soon then walked into the room, with a tray of tea and some scones. She rests the tray onto the lounge table, and bowed to then leave the three men in the lounge room.
Archer and Brandon, poured themselves cups of tea, and Nathaniel served himself a scone.
"Well I'm wondering how issues in the bedroom will be solved" Brandon said as he sipped his tea.
Archer nearly spit out his tea, and Nathaniel nearly choked on his scone.
"W-what bedroom issues do you speak of?" Archer asked.
"Oh nothing, just some ahem, sex relations" Brandon replied.
"Alright, that is our que to leave. Thank you, Brandon" Nathaniel said as he stood up and fixed his clothing.
"Uh right, thank you for the tea, prince Brandon" said Archer as he returned his cup of tea to the tray and stood up to leave with his future husband.
"I was just curious" Brandon said as he was left alone in the room.

This was a tad bit longer than the other chapters but it's fine, life goes on.
Also, I feel like I rushed the story a little bit but I mean it is my first story so...
