    "So um what's first?" Swiss asked looking around at the room.

  "Hmm I do need help farming." I told him walking further into the room and he backed up a bit as I got closer.  "Do you act like this with every woman you meet?" I chuckled at him.

  "I don't know what you mean Women swarm me. I'm great with them." He said more confidently.

   "Uh huh I bet." I smiled at his cockiness. "Here follow me. Do you know how to farm?" I asked knowing the answer was probably a no.

   "I know how to in theory." He piped up confidently.

   "So you've never actually farmed before?" I asked more rhetorically then actually asking.

   "Uh no. It gets you dirty and my father said I had to look good at all times."

   "Your father sounds like a dick." I said as I was grabbing some fresh seeds and walking out the back door.

   "He is. There is a reason I ran away." He gruffed out crossing his arms as he stopped moving. I just continued walking towards the farm."Hey I still don't know your name!" He called out chasing after me.

"You don't need to know it!" I turned my head to yell back as I continued walking to the end of the farm. He finally caught up.

"I mean such a beautiful woman like you has to have a beautiful name to match." He ran in front of me and walked backwards so he was facing me.

"Your flattering won't work on me your highness." I gave a playful smile and he looked slightly annoyed.

"Yeah right. My charm will get to you, you just wait!" He laughed then turned around so he could see what was in front of him again. I stopped moving as we reached the end of the farm land. "Sooo what now?" He asked.

"Okay so you need to plant these seeds and I need to run back and change then I will come back to help you. I also will need to grab water from the river so maybe I'll show you where that is to." I told him as I began walking back to the house. "I'll be right out if you need help!!" I yelled before I went into my house to change.

   I put on some black pants that I stole from some guy at my old village. They had a bunch of pockets and were very comfortable so I could move around a lot in them. I also put on a white shirt that had a frilly collar and you a lowish V neck that you could tie up which I also stole from the same guy. I don't think he would've minded though. 

   I made my way back out of the house  grabbing a bucket by the door so I could get water. I Saw Swiss in the same spot I left him in but I didn't expect anything less. He had absolutely no idea what he was doing. Thank god he found me or he would've been dead in two seconds in this forest.

   "You doing alright over there your highness?!" I called across the farm field with a chuckle in my voice. I ran up so he didn't have to yell back to me.

   "So um... how do I do this?" He asked sounding more nervous about this.

   "I thought you could do this 'in theory.'" I laughed out and he rubbed his arm sheepishly.

"Yeah uh... aren't there supposed to be some sort of tools?" He asked looking at the seeds in his hand then at the ground.

"I don't have any so we are just going to use our hands." I knelt down and dug tiny holes in the ground spaced out enough so they would grow properly.

"What are we growing?" He asked handing me the seeds when I put my hand up.

"We are growing carrots and potatoes right now. Is that alright your highness?" I stood up dusting off the dirt on my hands.

"Why wouldn't it be?" He asked offended.

"I don't know I'm sure this food isn't as good as the food back at the castle." I answered honestly.

"Why do you say that?"

"I'm poor. You can literally ask for whatever food you want and you get it."

"The food was very good." He whispered looking off back in the distance.

"You can go back-"

"Satanas no! I will never." He interrupted me.

"Can I ask why?" I looked up at him. He looked down at his feet then at me. "You don't have to tell me. Here let's go to the river." I changed the topic so I didn't crush him to much. He is just adjusting anyway.

We walked in a comfortable silence for a few minutes towards the river. The sun was straight up in the sky so it was about mid day and it was warm out but not unbearable.

"So how long have you been a witch?" He asked suddenly.

"I was born a witch. Both my parents were sorcerers." I answered shortly.

"Were?"

"You ask a lot of questions your highness." I let out a laugh but his question did hurt and I felt my mind go numb for a second.

   "I have to get to know this lovely lady I'm staying with." I could hear the smile in his voice. "You know I've never seen a woman in pants, are your people normally like this?" He asked his voice had some spunk in it. It was nice knowing he was getting more comfortable with certain things like talking to me for one.

   "What have you only seen them naked?" I let out snort of amusement.

   "No they have to wear clothing into the castle. Then when they get to my room it's a different story." He grinned.

   "Wow your highness you sure get around." I said smiling.

   "I'm sure I can get around to you soon enough." He put is arm around me jokingly.

   "Yeah yeah I'm sure." I dismissed as we finally approached the river. It was deep in the woods but the water was crystal clear. Swiss bent down and cupped water into his hands and put them up to his face to drink. I quickly grabbed his collar and pulled him back.

   "What was that for?! I'm thirsty!" He yelled angrily.

   "We need to boil it before we drink from it. It's got all fish piss in it you're gonna get sick Your highness." I told him calmly to try not to start an argument.

   "I told you not to call me that." He spoke through gritted teeth.

   "I called you it before and you didn't say anything."

   "You were joking then." Was all he said and he went quiet.

   "I'm sorry Swiss I didn't mean to offend you. Here let's get this water back home and I'll boil it and we can have lunch."

   "Sounds like a plan darling."

   "Darling?"

   "I don't know your name. That's the name I'm giving you." He deadpanned.

   "Uh okay." I said in a confused tone as I plunged the bucket into the water letting the water fill it up. "Let's go." I heaved up the heavy bucket as we began walking back to the house.
