1 - 'xRapunzel_Rawrx'

Prince Daniel sat at his computer, his eyes stinging from staring at the screen for four hours straight.
The sound of the keys clinking, bouncing off his castle walls.
The discovery of chat rooms at three in the morning was the most exciting thing to happen in his life since being locked up in the damn tower.
The light from the computer illuminated the room, and Daniel stared at it, transfixed by the little messages he was receiving.
He had named himself  'xRapunzel_Rawrx' because he wanted to talk to other cute princes without them knowing he was a boy. Also it sounded cute and all the good names were taken.
When was pretending to be Princess Rapunzel, he got so many messages. Lots of the messages though, were actually dick picks and Daniel responded to those with, "Ewwwzz XD".
He had to add the XD on the end because they needed to know that even though 'Rapunzel' was a lady and did not approve of the sending of nudes over the Internet, she was also fun and liked to be a little naughty.
Daniel on the other hand appreciated the male form in its full glory by respectfully touching himself to the photos.
There were a few messages though that didn't consist of any naked men, one of them being from a nearby Prince who went by the username of 'PrincePawsxx'

PrincePawsxx:  Hey ;)))

xRapunzel_Rawrx: Hey XD

Daniel was sweating. He really didn't want to mess this up. He hadn't really ever talked to anyone...ever. Being locked up in a castle for his whole life and all kind of restricted human interaction.
Sometimes he talked to the dust particles on his bookshelf but he didn't think that really counted.
This PrincePawsxx guy was a whole new chapter in Dans book. He already felt a strong connection to the faceless user. Maybe he was in love.
The winky face had been pretty suggestive, maybe PrincePawsxx loved him back.
Maybe they were going to get married and adopt lots of little children, and live in a house together, and skip around holding hands.
Daniel's heart fell when he realized that PrincePawsxx thought the was a princess. Now he would never know happiness.

PrincePawsxx: What r u doing?? :))

Daniel's chest leaped with hope.
This message obviously meant something. PrincePawsxx was definitely head over heels in love with him. Daniel felt so guilty knowing that he would have to break his heart.
Or maybe he wouldn't have to...
He could continue on being Rapunzel until PrincePawsxx's love was so strong he wouldn't care about the fact that Daniel was a Prince instead of a princess.
The plan was foolproof.

xRapunzel_Rawrx: Nm. How bout u? XD

PrincePawsxx: Taking to you hehe ;)))

xRapunzel_Rawrx: Aw ur cutez

Things were going even smoother than Daniel had planned.

PrincePawsxx: thnx so r u

Daniel almost fell out of his chair. PrincePawsxx thought he was cute. Well he actually thought Rapunzel was cute but it was close enough.

xRapunzel_Rawrx: Thnx I am blushing ur a gentleman XD ;) xx

He sat on the edge of his seat waiting for the next message. Was the use of the XD and the winky face too much? Was he coming on too strong?

PrincePawsxx: Hey can I tell you a secret? :)

Daniel couldn't of typed faster.

xRapunzel_Rawrx: Yes? XD

It took several minutes for PrincePawsxx to respond and Daniel was starting to worry he had said something wrong. Had the winky face from before put him off? m

PrincePawsxx: I think I like like you...*blushes*

This was all too much for Daniel. He saw his future flash before his eyes. PrincePawsxx holding his hand in bed. PrincePawsxx holding his hand on a walk. PrincePawsxx kissing his on the nose. It was a perfect life and Daniel was ready for the next step.

He typed his message and closed his eyes as he pressed send.

xRapunzel_Rawrx: Me 2 XD
