THE FOLLOWING DAYS FELT LIKE A BLUR TO DIANA. the press, the endless royal duties, the constant stream of visitors, and the tight grip of expectation that suffocated her every move—it was all becoming too much to bear. she had spent years adjusting to the role she was born into, but in the quiet moments, in the stillness between engagements, she couldn't escape the thoughts of felix. his presence lingered in her mind, and no matter how hard she tried to focus on her royal duties, she couldn't help but think of him.
the press, of course, continued to hound her about the charity gala. every interview, every public appearance was followed by more questions, more insinuations, and more stories about her possible romance with felix. the speculation grew louder, and diana could feel the pressure mounting. but what hurt the most wasn't the questions from the media—it was the guilt she felt every time she saw her family. her father's disapproving gaze, her mother's quiet but unspoken expectations, and her brothers and sister's questions about her happiness—it all added up to a weight that diana wasn't sure she could carry anymore.
that morning, after a particularly grueling meeting with royal aides, diana found herself in the royal gardens again. she needed to clear her head, to find some semblance of peace before she had to face another round of public appearances. the garden had always been a place of solace for her, a rare space where she could breathe freely without the weight of her title pressing down on her.
as she walked along the familiar path, her mind wandered back to the conversation she'd had with felix the night of the gala. his words still echoed in her mind: "you don't have to do this alone." they were simple words, but they carried so much weight. For the first time in what felt like forever, diana had allowed herself to consider the possibility of happiness beyond her royal duties.
the sound of footsteps behind her brought her back to reality. she turned, her heart racing for a moment, before her breath caught in her throat. felix was standing at the entrance of the garden, his figure framed by the soft light of the morning sun. he was dressed casually in a gray hoodie and jeans, his hands shoved in his pockets. there was a softness in his expression, a quiet understanding that made diana's heart skip a beat.
"i thought i might find you here," felix said with a small smile.
diana's heart fluttered. "i didn't expect you to come," she said softly, her voice barely above a whisper.
felix shrugged. "i couldn't stay away. i've been thinking about you. about us."
diana felt a surge of emotion at his words. she had been thinking about him too, nonstop, trying to figure out how to reconcile the feelings that had bloomed so quickly between them with the life she was supposed to live. but in his presence, it all seemed simpler. the world outside faded, and for a brief moment, it was just the two of them.
"i'm glad you're here," diana said, her voice trembling slightly. "i've been... trying to sort everything out. it's not easy."
felix stepped closer, his eyes soft with concern. "i know it's not easy. but i'm here, annie. whatever you decide, i'll be here."
