What's my brother doing here?! With the crown prince no less... I knew he was gay, but I didn't think he'd be into the narcissistic red flag prince!!

He averts his gaze from me.

"N/N? You alright?"

I hear Elise say. She's probably noticed me staring at him...

"Yeah, I'm fine... I just thought I saw something, that's all."

Elise nods.

"Well then, shall we get some food?"

My eyes lit up, suddenly I didn't care about my brother. Food can come first.

I nod my head rapidly, and head for the buffet. Elise and Alisa on the other hand, didn't get so much luck as they were bombarded with students asking them to dance...

As long as it wasn't with the crown prince, I suppose I wouldn't mind too much... but it does make me feel a little weird just thinking that Elise might be dancing with some random student while I watch her form the sidelines.

"Hey, Y/N. Don't tell me you forgot about me already..."

Oh, it's Blair.

"Blair...?  Shouldn't you be surrounded by students too?"

"Me? No way. Can't imagine myself like that."

She folds her arms.

"So... wanna grab some food with me?"

She deadpans and stares judgtngly.

"Uh, fine. I have nothing else to do anyways."

She shrugs it off and goes to grab food with me.

The food here is all classy and rich, nothing like the food I ate in my original world... I wonder how the other students could talk and gossip all day without indulging in these delicacies... it's free food!!

I grab a plate and went off on my conquest to devour the food. Blair stands at the side, sweatdropping.

While I was busy shoving my face with food, Blair walked up to me.

"You have some food here..."

She wipes it off with her finger.

"Seriously... are you really Lady Elise's servant? Didn't they teach you some basic etiquette?"

Well.. not really... I hung out with Elise all the time, and she didn't seem to care...

After feeding myself, I had nothing better to do. Elise went off to gossip with the other noble ladies, leaving me alone.

"It's too awkward here... I'd better go somewhere with less people..."

I shake my head and went off to the academy garden.

It was already late evening. With the sky a dark blue, and the stars illuminating in the night, it really did look like a romantic setting. Then again, this is the night the crown prince is supposed to share a dance with the heroine...

I stare at the flowers of the garden. All of them were well maintained, and despite that, not many took their time to appreciate it.

"How beautiful..."

Great, now I'm talking to flowers. I guess I really should get back.

"Sister...?"

My eyes widen.

I stare at him.

"Sorry, I must've gotten the wrong person after all..."

"No, you're right. It's me, Y/N..."

I'll save the villainess! (GL)Where stories live. Discover now
