The Good King

'A Trap'

It was a cold night, yet so warm inside that room.

By the time he looked up towards her, she was still reading.

The second rpince was amazed by how she poured her heart and soul into the book in between her hands.

He could see so many different expressions on her pretty face.

And even though he recommended that book to her, he could not help but feel jealous.

"This is just like us"

Aylin suddenly said.

She then moved her chair closer ro his, while showing him the pages of her book.

The story was about a prince who was saved by a foreign girl who passed by their kingdom one random day.

Louis could see the words coming out of her mouth, but it felt like he could not hear a single thing.

'She smells like the sun'

He thought to himself.

"Louis, what do you think?"

She suddenly asked, giving him the innocent look.

The prince snapped out of it, replying,

"Yeah, I like this story, and the girl here reminds me of you"

"I do not think so. She is too adorable according to how the prince describes her"

Aylin said, while showing him the  proves, some specific lines of him calling her 'cute' or 'adorable'.

'You seriously have no clue what you look like, do you?'

Louis thought while watching her up close.

It was too much for him to handle.

"It's already this late. You should get some sleep"

The prince said while handing her the new bookmark he got her.

"This one is so pretty"

She referred to the light blue bookmark with a golden fish painted on it.

Aylin closed her book and walked straight to his bed.

"Goodnight"

She said while getting warm and comfortable.

Louis smiled, walking closer to turn off  lamps near the bed.

But not all of them.

Because he knew she likes a dim light so that it doesn't feel alone.

"Dream of me"

Louis said, watching her sleeping face, then walked back to the table where he spent another hour working before he passed out.

Evan saw someone climbing up the rope she had just thrown down.

Elmer then jumped up the wall.

"That was easy"

The prince said, nothing was to be seen other than his shiney blue eyes, his cape and hood covered all of his body.

"Glad you made it"

Evan said while helping herself down, followed by Elmer.

"It is not over yet"

Hawk then said.

"That's why we have a backup plan"

The prince said, while smiling.

"Are you sure that thing is going to wash off?"

Hawk asked.

"I hope so"
