[A Knight x APPle]
APPle was acting strange lately. He looks like he's been hiding something, something so terrible that he had to hide it from his own captain.
(Warning: Sensitive content included.)
APPLe has been seeing someone. He has always kept his life a secret, even to his captain, Regulus. Despite how much Regulus has known him, she still hasn't gotten a clue about his little secret. Of course, being close to APPLe also means she must have noticed his strange behavior, but in a positive way.
He has changed his shirt collar into something more elegant. He has recently announced to almost everyone that he'll be wearing round glass in pride. The glasses reflect light on his smooth red skin, making him look so very edible if you're not careful. Mostly, he was orange-red before turning into a stunning shade of scarlet. He looks oily like a fresh apple dipped in honey.
APPLe refused to go sailing with his captain these days. Regulus obviously did not like the way he'd say he was busy every time she tried to persuade him. She didn't know why APPLe was busy, she doesn't usually see him go out.
Regulus knew something was off. She knows APPLe is definitely dating someone behind her back. She couldn't contain her curiosity, so she tried everything to get information from APPLe but he wouldn't utter a word. She could not stay mad at him for no reason.
You may be right. APPLe has been hanging out with a fabulous wandering knight. The Knight was his drinking partner before they got serious about their relationship. However, they decided to keep it a secret. Until Regulus ruined it.
APPLe loves this man. A Knight is the definition of a "gentleman". He talks politely and carefully to whosoever he is talking to, it doesn't matter wether it was a lady or a man or an apple. APPLe loves the way he talks. Even though it is sometimes quite incomprehensible, APPLe has enjoyed every second talking to him so far.
God bless him and his French accent with that old-fashion way of talking. He loves the way Knight would sweet talking with him no one was around.
__________
A cold evening in the middle of January. APPLe as usual, drinking and talking about wine in different regions with his drinking partner. He might have had a little too much. Adrenaline spread through his core from the stalk to bottom as he continued pouring another cup of red wine as if he tried to get his mind lost on purpose. He continued staring at his partner, who just had another wine glass. Even if he were invisible, APPLe and anyone would tell that he was drunk.
A Knight felt the alcohol running through his veins, he felt the same thing APPLe was feeling. They knew they were having a lot more than usual, but they did not care whatsoever.
A Knight insisted on taking APPLe back to the suitcase after. He adjusted APPLe's bow and collar. APPLe did not pay the bow any mind, but instead the Knight helping him with it.
"It is a long way back to the suitcase don't thou think? Someone would be honored to walk thou there"
"This apple can manage his way back safely, there is no need to be so cautious about it." APPLe rejected his offer.
"Please, someone would love to." Not giving up, a Knight spoke up once again. APPLe did not want his knight to be in sorrow at all. He accepted it.
In APPLe's mind, he would burst into joy if A Knight walked him to the suitcase, but he had to keep his image. He loved how careful A Knight was with him. He hid APPLe under his cape to keep him warm and safe. His hand holding APPLe behind the fabric. APPLe felt like he was melting in the knight's hand. He could feel A Knight's heartbeat as his hand held him close to his chest, or more like where the chest should be.
