The night was quiet and dark as he stood by the curtains. I quickly made my way to my bedroom door and locked it shut. Closing the balcony door behind me I walked with him into the cold night air.
"Now what?" I said.
He went to the far right of my balcony and hoisted himself over to a nearby ledge. He signaled for me to come too.
A look of shock struck my face.
"You really are not insisting I do what you just did?" I asked.
"Right, then you can walk past Wilson and come out the front entrance," He said smiling.
"Ask him to come with us too!"
I shot him a sneer.
I looked around to make sure no one was there before climbing over the balcony myself holding onto to the cobblestone in front of me for support.
"I am wearing unsupportive shoes." I said.
"No one told you to." He winked.
He started shimmying along the castles roof I following him closely until we got another balcony below us. He effortlessly jumped down.
"Well, what are you waiting for?" He said looking up at me.
"I am not jumping." I said.
"Are you just gonna stand there?"
"I am wearing heels!"
"Yes you made that perfectly clear. So what if you break an ankle?" He said laughing.
I took my shoes off before throwing one towards his head which he dodged.
Smug idiot
I then jumped and landed on all fours.
He started laughing profusely which in theory made me laugh as well.
"You looked like a un gato." He said.
"Shut up."
He opened the door and ushered me inside.
We were in his chambers. There were maps sprawled out and books all over the floor.
"I see you do not tend to yourself." I said.
He ignored my comment and walked towards his bedroom door carefully opening it. It made a loud creek.
We walked down the hall slowly and finally to the stairs that lead to the servants quarters.
"You do seem to know your way around this castle," I said. "It is a bit concerning."
"I know my ways and means." He replied.
Down the servants staircase and outside Diego was standing there bottle in hand with....Mina.
"What are you doing here?" I whispered.
She was laughing. "Your Highness, me and Diego are going dancing!" She said holding onto his arm.
"Just please do not cause a scene, we are not supposed to be out here." I said.
"Are you supposed to be out here?" She asked.
"Touche."
She shot me a look.
Diego and her led the way down the narrow path engulfed by trees. They were far ahead of us laughing and holding onto each other. It was nice to see Mina happy like that. She was so busy taking care of me and everyone else in the castle , I never got to see her this happy. I then looked at Antonio to my left. He was quiet.
