Crown of Fire (WSSWC book) 1st draft

Chapter 5

Quackity has made his way up to Wilbur's room. It was quite easy to spot as his name was literally written on it in a fancy font.

When he opened the door, he saw Wilbur curled up in the corner. Surprisingly he had his horns and tails out. Prince Quackity had heard from his father, King George, that Wilbur was a demon-hybrid although he was forced to hide it. The room had all the widows closed so Wilbur probably thought no one would see him.

Wilbur seemed to be in his head as he didn't acknowledge the other's presence in the room. It was odd, the light from the hallway had entered the room and yet Wilbur still didn't notice.

Quackity quietly shut the door behind him and locked it. That was what made Wilbur snap out of it.

"Huh? Prince Quackity? Why are you here?"

Quackity smiled, "Hey Wilbur." Quackity sat down beside him and leaned on his shoulder.

"Uh, hello? I... don't believe we have met before." Wilbur was slightly uncomfortable but let it slide.

Quackity ignored what he had said and nuzzled into his shoulder, "Do you ever feel trapped by the norms of society?"

Wilbur was quite alarmed, the question was sudden and direct. "I-I mean—" Wilbur stumbled over his words. "—Well I guess? I mean I just, I don't..."

Quackity listened to him fumble over his words, if he were in a sappy stereotypical romance story he would've found it cute. He didn't though, he found it quite intriguing.

Wilbur blushed, he felt like an idiot.

"Are you finished?" Quackity didn't mean to sound rude but there was something he wanted to address with Wilbur.

Wilbur nodded, "You know, you're very different from what the news says about you."

"I am huh? I know that."

"Whenever you talk about something serious you don't screw up. You talk calmly and from the heart."

Quackity chuckled, "Wow, perceptive. Do you want to know something I've perceived about you?"

"And what's that?"

"You prefer men over women."

"Wh-What?! That's absurd!" Wilbur exclaimed. His surprise wasn't faked, it was the reason he was surprised. He didn't think he acted like a "homosexual".

"You do, I won't go too in depth but it's very subtle."

"I do? I thought I was good at hiding it."

"It's only noticeable if you look for it or are trains to notice the tiniest details."

Quackity wrapped his arms around Wilbur's torso.

"Are you tired?"

Quackity nodded. Wilbur straightened his body so Quackity could lay on top of him. The shorter gave a small mumble of appreciation and settled in.

"Do you want to stay like this? I can carry you to the bed?"

"Mmm if you want to, all I need is your lap because it's comfy." Quackity let out a yawn.

"No, it's fine. Can you move for a sec, I want to lay fully on the ground."

"Sure," Quackity moves off his lap so Wilbur could adjust his position. Once Wilbur was finished Q laid on top of his chest again.

Wilbur wrapped his arms around Quackity. They had only met each other today and now here they were cuddling.

"Oh Wilbur!" Quackity whispered.

"Yeah?" Wilbur had his eyes closed but opened them to look at Quackity.

"I promised your dad I'd do this," Quackity leaned forwards and gave Wilbur a small kiss on the lips.

"Huh?! I- why did you, wha-"

Quackity giggled and put a finger on his lips to stop him from talking. "Shhhh it's fine."

Quackity snuggled into his arms again with Wilbur feeling embarrassed as hell. Eventually, Wilbur managed to pull himself together. When he did he started to drift to sleep. 

So yeah cliffhanger I'm deciding what happens next. I left it on an open ending on purpose cause there's two ways chapter 6 could go. Also yes I did slightly break the fourth wall that once but uhmmm yeah. Anyways if you guys have any questions just ask me :3
