  Travelling was fun, no doubt especially when doing it with people you are close with... however, there was a heavy, heavy tension in the air.

   "So, how are you guys?" Jisung asked.

    "Hm, we are good," Felix answered.

    Jisung nodded, "So, nothing is going on?"

   "No, nothing is going on. Why do you ask, Lord Han," Hyunjin questioned.

   "There is a little bit of tension in the air," Jisung stated.

    "Yeah, why don't you just kiss already?" Minho questioned.

   Felix and Hyunjin's eyes widened.

   "Like that would ever happen. We do not see each other in that way," Hyunjin quickly said

   "Exactly, I do not know where you two are finding this tension, but perhaps you guys should re-evaluate it," Felix added.

    Obviously, they felt the tension. Who couldn't feel the tension? However, never in a million years would they ever, ever, admit that they were the cause of the tension.

   "Yeah, okay..." Minho muttered.

   The rest of the ride was quite and tense. Minho stood first and exited, followed by Jisung.

   Hyunjin went to stand and exit the carriage, however, Felix was faster with beginning to exit the Carriage.

   Hyunjin carefully stood, as Felix went to take a step he stumbled.

   Hyunjin quickly caught Felix by his waist and pulled him back, "Please, be careful, your royal highness," he said softly.

   Felix held his breath for a moment, but then quickly held Minho's hand to step down.

   The ravenet clenched his jaw and followed behind.

  Red flowers lined the entry of house.

   "Your royal highness,"

   "Countess Min, it is a pleasure to see you again," Felix said softly.

   Chae smiled, "I was wondering if you would be my first dance tonight,"

     "Uhm, of course,"

    Felix held his hand out for the Countess, which she gleefully took.

    Hyunjin watch from afar.

   "What is wrong with you?" Minho asked.

   "Nothing,"

   Minho clicked his tongue, "As if that is remotely believable," he said.

  "What would you like me to say? That all I wish to do is show everyone in this room that the prince is mine?" Hyunjin questioned, loud enough for only Minho to hear.

   "Why yes, because I believe that," Minho stated.

  Hyunjin scoffed, "Well, even if I did want to do that, I could not because the prince is certainly not mine nor will he ever be,"

    Minho hummed, "You say that he never will be yours, but how can you be so sure?"

   "Because he is a prince and I am his guard, if it were to happen his parents would be furious," Hyunjin said

   "Do you not know how his parents met? His mother a princess bound to be queen and his father, he was the son of the palace chef. They do not care for the rank of his significant other, they only care if his significant other truly loves him," Minho stated.

     Hyunjin sighed, "It does not matter either way, Countess Min is a wonderful match for him,"

   Minho raised a brow and looked over to the pair.

   "Are they truly a good pair? Or are you telling yourself that to hide your feelings?" The older asked.

    Hyunjin bit his bottom lip and looked at them.

    Was he really just trying to hide how he feels for the prince?
