Alhaitham, the Prince of Sumaru, the "perfect" boyfriend, oh how Kaveh envied him, he had the perfect life, he has a loving family, a nice little sister and friends who didn't treat him poorly, everything Kaveh didn't.

At school people would be all around Alhaitham, he could pull any gender, Kaveh on the other hand never got anyone to even talk to him much, maybe it was his bratty attitude, or he wasn't hot enough whatever it was it made him jealous, he was a lonely loser kid who only had one talent and that was art.

It was a normal day, Kaveh got out of the house by 6am and went off to school, he had to get up or he would end up with another cut or bruise. He didn't mind the walk it was usually very nice out, but today it was raining and his umbrella was getting worse by the second 'I need a new umbrella' was Kaveh's first thought.

When he made it to school he saw Alhaitham with people crowding around him, Cyno his royal guard and Tighnari the royal medic, Cyno's boyfriend, were holding them off, Kaveh laughed a bit actually glad that wasn't him.

He went to the sign up board there was a play he audition for called, "King Deshert's lost love", it's about the tale of King and his lost love the flower goddess He sighed a bit seeing he didn't make any characters whatsoever, ofc Alhaitham got King Deshert why wouldn't he and… Nilou was the flower goddess.

Nilous is an amazing actor and a wonderful dancer so I'm very glad for her, I used to have a crush on her but it stopped when she came out as lesbian and started dating Candice and Deyha, they make a cute couple though.

The bell rings shortly after and he get to class ready for another boring ass day. Math is his first class and it sucks. 'I barely have enough energy to stand. How am I gonna make it through this?!'

The day went on and finally ended as he was leaving the school he saw Alhaitham hiding from people, he let out a scoff and walked off to his job. He worked as a waiter in a restaurant. It was an easy job with a few harsh people here and there but overall easy, though they tend to get famous people once in a while and that's usually a hard night.

He clocked in and immediately started working it was fine until he showed up Alhaitham, and followed by a group of people 'Really? He has to bring his entourage with him?!' Kaveh thought pretty annoyed "HI, I'll take a table for 4 please"

it was the voice of a young child, she had white hair with green on the end and looked no older than 7 "Right this way please!"

I set there table and grab there drinks a few people also check in only to watch Alhaitham kinda weird if you ask me, none the less I go back and get there order "So ready to order?" I get ready to right the order down

"I'll take the kids' chicken meal!"

"A New York steak with a salad side and rice please"

"A cheese burger with extra mushrooms and fries, light seasoning on both thank you"

"Steak. vegetables"

'How.. blunt I guess I would ya know expect him to be more expressive", either way he get there orders, Kaveh's first meeting with the Prince is definitely not what he expected, he made it a busy day and that's not what he wanted he had to work extra tables, and extra time how annoying.

Work is finally out and Kaveh looks at the time '9:00pm' which means he won't be home early, with that he heads home. He opens the door quietly hoping his mom won't hear

"KAVEH"

'shit'

He makes his way towards his mother with some random dude she always is hooking up with people "Go make me food, and don't make it longer than 20 minutes or else"

Kaveh nods and does what she says, he tries to make the best he can before time runs out but unfortunately to make food that satisfies his mom, takes a bit longer than 20 minutes.

"You useless child! You can't even make food quick enough" her voice was slurred from the alcohol

"How can I make anything in under 20 minutes when you want expensive fancy food" he knew fighting back was stupid but he wasn't going to let some bratty parent talk him down but Oh boy was his mother passed,

Smack

His mother never just normally hit him she always used something, he fell to the floor in pain she used a bottle in her hand to hit Kaveh which cause cuts to form on his face. He immediately ran to his room.

'Stupid stupid,... if dad was still here this wouldn't have happened..' He gets to tending his wound. It has glass and blood dripping from it, it looked horribly luckly. It was on the side of his face so it wasn't hard to hide.

'I need to do my homework too,' He stay down, he had math homework, English and art, he got matu and English don't somewhat quickly and started on Art, of course the art took the longest kaveh had high expectations of himself, he wasn't going to have any bad art to turn in.

This is quite a normal life for Kaveh. He has to leave by 10am and return after 7pm or he gets punished and being punished is never good. It ends in him having to use more makeup than usual to hide the pain, the cuts.. the bruises.

________

5 Weeks pass, his life is pretty much the same, he hasn't run into Alhaitham much only at the restaurant now and then plus the play, his grades are all A's and B's meaning his mother won't punish him for those again, and his art work his been working on got acknowledged, and he was sent to advanced arts 3 the best art class in that school.

The play was at 5pm that day and he has actually been working behind the stage, they were short staffed so Kaveh helped out it's not so bad he has avoid Alhaitham the most he possibly can and has observed from behind and it's actually pretty good he can't wait for the play.

__________

It was perfect everything was perfect, they did the best they could but that was until the nearing end scene that's when he noticed something… the stage light, its cable was breaking off but no one seemed to notice.

The cable snapped and it was heading down it was going to crush Alhaitham his body moved without thinking, he didn't know what he was doing when he ran on that stage, all he knew was he wasn't going to let some stage light kill a person.

Crash
