I loved you in secret - walter x henry (young royals)

Our secret moments in a crowded room

Walter

It was almost 4pm, when we arrived back in our dorm room. On the door handle hung already the white frocks we had to wear at the Lucia celebrations in the evening. We took them inside with us.

Normally, parents are attending the celebrations as well but Henry's parents luckily had a meeting in England which they couldn't postpone so they weren't coming. I was pretty glad about that and I knew Henry felt the same way, judging by the relief on his face when he got the text from his parents. Unfortunately mine couldn't attend as well but I understood that they had to go to a really important event and I knew that I at least had Henry.

Before I could even say anything, Henry wrapped his arms around my neck.

"Hey" He pulled me down to be even closer to him and kissed me, "Missed you"

"Missed you too" I smiled at him and kissed him another time. Maybe it's stupid since we've only been alone in a room a couple of hours ago but being able to kiss him again feels amazing. I missed his lips against mine. I missed him even though it's been barely 3 hours. God, I never wanted to let go of these little moments, only the two of us and no one knows about it. Just us.

Henry entangled his hands in my hair, I wrapped my arms around his middle and pulled him even closer, our chests almost touching. Then I pulled my left hand away from his back and gently caressed his cheek with it instead. Then I started walking backwards until we reached my bed, not breaking the kiss once. I sat down slowly, pulling Henry with me so that he was sitting in my lap, hands roaming through my hair while mine were tangled around his waist, holding him as close to me as possible. I didn't want to let him go ever. I was his since we first saw each other at the beginning of the year and I will be his forever.

"Henry, Walter?" I jumped, a bit startled by someone knocking on our door. Henry started giggling quietly, leaning his head forwards against my shoulder.

"Yeah?" I responded to the person outside the door.

"It's Alexander. They asked me to look for you two. We should meet outside the building now."

"Shit" I hissed under my breath. We should just go back to our dorm to change into the white frocks. We should meet in front of the school at half past 4. And somehow Henry and I didn't even get to the point where we changed our clothes, we made out the whole 30 minutes we were supposed to get ready for Luica.

"We're gonna be there soon, we lost the time, thanks for reminding us." I responded to Alexander, Henry was still giggling, hiding his face into my shoulder.

"Good. See you soon." Alexander said and then I heard him walk away.

Henry looked up at me again with a wide smile on his lips, "We're sooo..." He let out a groan and put his forehead against mine. I had to giggle now too. Then I leaned closer to him and gave him a small peck on his lips.

"Let's get going now, sunshine" I took him by his hips and pulled him next to me on the bed before I got up. He reached for my hand and I took his, pulled him up, "We have to hurry"

Then it became somehow really hectic, we took the frocks and changed into them quickly. Then I turned around to Henry. He was already looking at me (or more like staring) and didn't stop when I turned to him.

"What?" I could feel my cheeks reddening. Henry took some steps closer to me until he was standing in front of me. He put his hand on my cheek and stroked his thumb over it, "You're beautiful" He whispered, voice so low that only I could hear it.

"You're so too" I smiled at him and could see his face blushing. Then I took his hand from my cheek and into mine, I pulled him with me outside the door.
