Be My Princess 2: The Dream That Came True

Chapter 1: A Prince Broke Into My Home!

A young girl named Ariana Taylor was watching the parade from her apartment window. Balloons were flying up in the air, and the sound of cheering voices was filling up the atmosphere. A limo was driving in the parade.

In the limo was the Prince of the Oriens kingdom, Prince Kuon. Ariana was looking at him from above. He looked up and their eyes met.

They stared at each other like they were the only ones they see. She felt her heart race. "He's looking right at me..." Ariana thought. He smiled and waved at her. She blushed and hesitantly did the same thing. "Wow... I can't believe it... He noticed me." Ariana thought.

The limo was passing by and they could no longer look at each other. "It's like... We only had eyes for each other." Ariana thought.

It has reached night, and Ariana was on her way back from the grocery store. She got her keys and unlocked her door. She went in and set her groceries down.

She suddenly heard a thumping noise. "What was that?" Ariana asked herself.

She slowly went towards her bedroom and opened the door, peaking through.

She went in her room and looked around. "I swear I thought I heard something." Ariana said. She noticed the window opened.

She went over to it and noticed a ladder which made her eyes widened. "Oh my god! Someone is really here..!" Ariana said.

She went over to the light switch and looked everywhere in her room. "Alright! Come out wherever you are!" Ariana said still looking around.

Someone covered her eyes from behind. She screamed and did a roundhouse kick, sending that person flying the room, hitting the wall. "Who do you think you are?!" Ariana said turning around to the person.

Her expression changed from angry to surprise. "Ow... You really know how to kick." Kuon said. "Your highness?!" Ariana exclaimed going over to him. "Why did you do that for anyways?" Kuon asked. "Because... Oh come on! If someone broke into your home, wouldn't you want to defend yourself? I didn't expect you to be here and especially climbing in my window- Wait... You mean to tell me that I didn't lock my window..?!" Ariana asked. "You didn't, so you made it easy for me to come in." Kuon said. "But... Why are you here?" Ariana asked. "I want to get away." Kuon said. "Get away from what?" Ariana asked. "The kingdom and just... People." Kuon said. "You can't run away from your problems, your highness. I know that things can be tough at times, but you need to face them." Ariana said. "Easy for you to say. At least you don't have a bunch of people always on your back 24/7." Kuon said. "Your highness... If you stay here, then there will be a search party and if they catch you here... I'll get into huge trouble." Ariana said. "Don't worry, I promise you that they won't find me easily." Kuon said. "But still... You need to go back. I can't take that risk." Ariana said. "I refuse." Kuon said. "Come on! You can't stay here forever!" Ariana exclaimed. "Yes I can. Even if your place is way smaller than mine, I don't care as long as no one comes. By the way, do you have people come over often?" Kuon asked. "Occasionally, my older brother comes for a visit. He won't come for a couple more months though." Ariana said. "Good. It seems you don't have a social life." Kuon said. "Yeah... Thanks for reminding me..." Ariana said. "I never even got your name, so... What is it?" Kuon asked. "It's... Ariana Taylor." Ariana said. "Wow... You even have- Never mind." Kuon said. "Uh... Ok..." Ariana said. "Where do I sleep?" Kuon asked. "Well... The problem is that I don't have an extra room or a futon. The couch is small and not used for a bed..." Ariana said. "Your bed is big enough." Kuon said. "Uh... I sleep there." Ariana said. "So will I." Kuon said. "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Slow down there! We are not going to sleep together!" Ariana exclaimed. "You don't have any other bed, so we have no choice." Kuon said. "I think I rather sleep on the floor than with you." Ariana said. "That's fine with me." Kuon said. "Fine. I'll do that." Ariana said.

Later at night, Kuon was sleeping in her bed, and she was lying on the bare ground. "It's so cold..." Ariana thought. "Are you really going to go through with this?" Kuon whispered in her ear.

She screamed and slapped him. "Ow! What was that for?!" Kuon asked. "D-Don't sneak up on me like that!" Ariana exclaimed. "I swear... And if you're really going to sleep on the ground all night, don't blame me if you get a stiff back in the morning." Kuon said. "I don't care if I do." Ariana said.

He sighed. "Just come into bed." Kuon said. "No." Ariana said. "Jeez... You're just as stubborn as me." Kuon said. "No! You're even more stubborn than me, because you refuse to leave my home!" Ariana exclaimed. "But you haven't attempted to kick me out now did you?" Kuon asked. "Oh... I'm about to." Ariana said getting up. "Y-You can't be serious?!" Kuon said. "Oh, I'm serious. You seriously need to get out! Go back to your kingdom where you belong!" Ariana exclaimed. "No." Kuon said. "Why not?!" Ariana shouted. "Because... I don't want to inherit the throne..." Kuon said.

She grunted. "You... Don't?" Ariana asked. "No. I don't think... I can do it." Kuon said. "Of course you can. If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything." Ariana said.

He grunted. "You..." Kuon said. "There's no need for you to run away from this. You have to go through with it." Ariana said. "But... I'm not ready. Please just let me stay here when I'm ready." Kuon said. "And when will that be?" Ariana asked. "Whenever... I feel like it." Kuon said.

She sighed. "I'll give you a month at the most. After that, you need to get out. Got it?" Ariana asked.

He smiled. "Thanks." Kuon said. "Well... Get some rest." Ariana said and laid back down on the floor. "You need to sleep in a bed." Kuon said. "I don't feel comfortable sleeping with someone." Ariana said. "I'll try not to be too noticeable. Just come up here." Kuon said.

He noticed her shaking. "Look at that, you're cold aren't you?" Kuon asked. "I thought you said that you didn't care for others, so why do you care?" Ariana asked.

He slightly blushed. "Because... Just... Come on, I won't do anything to you." Kuon said. She sighed. "Fine." Ariana said and went onto the bed.

She looked at Kuon from the corner of her eye. "I'm sleeping with a prince... In my own bed. Awkward..." Ariana thought.
