nya problem

i came rushing after Felice and when i found her, she was crying.

"Felice, whats wrong?" i said softly. her back was turned towards me, so i couldnt see her face but i could hear her sob.

"hey" i petted her back slowly and she finally turned around. it took her a while to begin talking, she only kept on sniffling.

"whatever i do, i cant do anything right" Felice mumbled while her eyes watered more and more.

"thats not true" i said and gave her a reassuring look "everybody thinks you're perfect" "you know that, right?"

Felice's face tightened when she looked at me while big drops of tears fell down her cheeks "does Wille think so?"

i was shocked by what she said, i knew alot of girls like Wille but Felice? the thing is, my brothers and i are royal and alot of people use us for that.

"this is about Wille?" i said and removed my hand from her back.

Felice didnt say anything, she only looked at me and i knew exactly what type of look that was.

"i shouldve knew.." i mumbled and left the hallway. the last thing i heard before doing so, was Felice calling out my name.

i sat down on a bench, in a park close to the manor house. before actually coming there, i thought about returning to the guests but to be honest, after the conversation with Felice, i lost my apetite.

"hey!" someone yelled from behind me. when i turned around, i saw Simon catching up to August. "stop im talking to you."

"no. not now, okay?" August said in a shaky voice. he was heading towards the bench i was sitting on but neither of the boys knew i was there.

"you owe me" Simon said after getting August's shoulder under his grip.

"you fucking owe me after the favor i did you" August spoke harshly. his back was turned to me so i couldnt see his facial expression, but i could tell he was raging.

"what? at least tell me when" Simon said but August ignored him and continued walking towards the benches.

"listen" Simon, once again grabbed August's shoulder, causing him to turn around

"back off, okay?" August yelled at the poor boy from Bjärtsad after pushing him to the ground.

i stood up, just incase i had to break out the fight but Simon left before it happened.

when August got closer the park i was in, he finally noticed me, but instead of explaining the situation, he didnt say anything. all he did was hug me with his big warm arms around my waist. his head was curled under my neck, so his whole body was bending.

later that day, while August worked out i finished some of my homework and we were getting back to our rooms really late, but at least we were together.

"what the hell are you doing here?" August told Simon. him and his friends from Bjärstad were sitting on the same bench i was at earlier.

"August" Simon said, while his friends looked at me. i tried not to get myself involved in whatever this was, so i just stayed next to August "transfer the money right now"

"what money?" i grabbed August's arm and looked up at him.

he ignored me, his eyes were layed on Simon, even tho he looked calm, i think he was very angry inside "oh so you brought your gangsters with you. huh?" August scoffed.

"are you threatening me?" August said. my hand was still grabbing on his arm, while my eyes traveled from Simon, to August and the other way around.

Simon pulled out his hand while his other hand stayed in his pocket "give me your phone"

i scoffed slightly "why should he do that?"

Simon looked at me quickly and then back at August "make the transfer now" 

"just go home" August gestured and touched my hand that was gripped on him.

we started walking away when Simon rushed over to us "you bastard. what the fuck is your problem?"

Simon pushed August to the ground and started punching him "what the hell are you doing?" August said out of breath.

"stop!" i tried to get Simon off August.

"you think its fun to fuck with people like me?" Simon yelled at August and stayed on him "im so fucking tired of you!"

"Simon, stop!" i said loudly. all i hoped for was that August is okay.

"i need my money!" Simon yelled at August and still kept a strong grip on him.

"Simon!" the girl that was there with him shouted "let go. let. go"

August groaned heavily while i still tried to stop the fight.

"what are you doing?" his friend said after Simon got off August.

"oh my god, are you okay?" i turned August around, so he looked me in the eyes. even tho he was still laying on the floor, with a nosebleed, he smiled at me.

"of course, princess" August whispered and brushed his hand thru my hair.

"hes fucking with me!" Simon yelled from behind me "i want my money!"

"if i had it, i would have given it to you. okay?" August's voice was one loud and harsh.

"wait what?" i said and looked at him.

"i have no money. my family's broke. i have nothing left" August continued in the same tone while my face dropped.

there was a moment of silence before i stood up.

"i dont care. you're gonna pay me" Simon said. his voice was less shaky than earlier and he seemed calmer but he was still mad.

August sat up a bit while i stood by his side and watched Simon leave with his friends.

"why didnt you tell me?" i said with crossed arms. my eyes were closed but i could tell August was looking at me.

"didnt tell you what?" August said. his voice was shaky, he sounded like he was about to cry and thats what happened.

August covered his face with his arms and started sobbing.
