Aaron and Ross laid Emily on the floor.

Sophia bought some water and sprinkled it on her face.

"She was really stressed about you. She thought you might have hurt yourself cause of you know. . " continued Ross.

" Is she related to you Soph ?" Asked Mr. Alejandro.

"No . She's Aaron's best friend.  They've grown up together.  And if something happens to her he's never gonna forgive any of us !" Said a really very worried and trembling Sophia.

"I'm soo happy for you Aaron. " said a meek voice , it was Emily's .

She had gained back her consciousness as Aaron had fed her some water.

"Emily ! Don't you dare scare me like that again ! You are not allowed to faint ! EVER AGAIN !" said Aaron.

"Stop overreacting ! I just got all confused and it was too much to take in one day." She said calmy as she was being helped be Ross and Aaron to sit on the sofa.

"Now that everything's fine. I'd like to propose something.  " said Mr. Alejandro.

Everyone turned their faces towards him.

"Since everything's sorted out properly . Aaron's agreed to come to rule his kingdom after he graduates and Sophia has agreed to cooperate with our , as in mine and Aaron's relationship I'd like to offer all of you a trip to our nation." said Mr. Alejandro.

"You agreed to become a king when you graduate ? Are you kidding me ? " said Ross.

"You wanted to pursue professional soccer ! Are you out of your mind ?" Said Emily.

"Well he gets to do that too." Said Mr. Alejandro.

Both Ross and Emily 'oohh-ed' .

"What about you mom ? Are you gonna get back with Mr. Alejandro ? " asked Emily.

"No." Said Sophia.

There was dead silence.

"It's for the best then." Said Mr. Alejandro.

Emily didn't really know him but she could tell , he was holding back all the tears and facing the situation with bravery.

She felt bad about asking the question.

"I'm sorry Ale , but you've been gone for a long time and I've decided to move on , but my decision to move on has been made after long years of waiting . Waiting , looking outside , into the world , looking for you. Thinking will you ever turn around for the family that's yours !" She tried to give an explanation , tears had welled up in Sophia's eyes.

"I'm sorry Soph , and I realize that I'll have to pay some price or the other for it. I may be a king , a very influential person , but at last I'm a human too , I'll also have to reap what I sow." Said Mr . Alejandro.

There was pin drop silence.

"Did someone tell Ella about this ? Once she hears her boyfriend is a To be King or already a Prince ! She's gonna die !" Said Ross.

" Shit ! I'll have to find a way of telling her this !" Said Aaron.

"Nah ! She's mature enough to understand ! Chill ! She's MY bff !" said Ross.

"That's why maybe he's scared Ross !" Chucked Emily.

"Okay !  Now , you can't tell anyone unless you graduate ! Son !" Said Mr. Alejandro.

"Okay Dad ! Except for Ella." He said.

"Oh my gosh ! It feels soo great to have someone to call as my dad." Exclaimed Aaron after a few seconds of realization.

Everyone chuckled and then Sophia called for a group hug.

"Who's up for a vacation at our palace ?" Asked Mr. Alejandro.

"What ? Seriously ? " asked Aaron.

"Yes! It's your kingdom ! Your country ! You're welcome anytime ! And I can make a few calls for your friends here and you guys can have the best vacay ! " said Mr. Alejandro.

"I'm not sure if my parents will agree to it , mom. What will I tell them ? " asked Emily.

"Who is gonna tell them ? They won't be back for more than two weeks. And they're in New York ! I'll handle them . You and Aaron can enjoy your vacation. " ushered Sophia.

"I'll tell my parents that I'm going on a road trip to Nashville with you guys !" Said Aaron.

"Yaay ! I'm soo damn excited !"
