I had returned home earlier than I would have liked, but it was for a good reason.
Tonight I'd head out to see what I could find on this women.
But before I did any of that I wanted to find Pantalone.
I didn't plan to inform him about the snooping I'd be doing but I did want to find out what he knew about her.
I searched around the house but as per usual Pantalone was still nowhere to be found. There was only one more place I could think of to go find him.
His art room.
He had been spending an awful lot of time there lately.
Not that I minded. It meant I could sit down and paint with him after a stressful day of chasing people around.
I hurried down the hallway and finding the doors I pushed them both wide open. Light shun into the room revealing Pantalone who sat perfectly still a brush in hand.
Upon opening the doors he turned his head back. His serious expression turned into a smile and he motioned to the seat beside him.
Smiling in return I walked in letting the doors swing back behind me. I took a seat beside him as he covered the painting.
"Still being secretive?" I asked playfully.
"Would it be surprising if I were?"
I shook my head, "It would be more surprising if you weren't."
He chuckled at this and placed his brush down.
"Princess."
The name made my heart flutter and I hummed.
His gentle hand grabbed the side of my face and he pulled my head forward. His lips placed a soft chaste kiss on my own before he backed up.
"You seem troubled."
My smile fell a bit.
I thought I had hid my expression rather well, alas it seemed nothing got past him.
"I guess you could say I still have a few things that are bothering me."
His expression shifted. He was more alert than he had been a few moments prior.
"Do tell? Perhaps I can help."
I let out a sigh.
I needed to be careful about how I worded this so I didn't tip him off to my plan.
"Well how do I put this... I guess that woman has been bugging me a bit. I'm not worried but she seems to be scheming something. So I wanted to know more about her to better prepare myself for anything that may come."
