A Blind World

Chapter 15

Kurt tightened his grip on the reigns as he chuckled nervously, glancing over at his adorable boyfriend who looked much more comfortable atop a horse.

"Just stay calm cutie, getting worked up isn't gonna get you anywhere." Zisteau teases, laughing at Kurt.

"I just don't know if I like this...."

"Once you get the hang of it, is actually alot of fun, gives you a sense of freedom." He says as he guides his horse a little closer to his lovers, which only makes him more nervous.

Zisteau gently takes Kurt's hands, letting the reigns fall slack. "Just relax, the horse will do most of the work. Its trained to follow the others."

"Just promise me we'll never do this again?"

Zisteau chuckles. "That's like promising I'll never kiss you again, because it's bound to happen."

Kurt just rolls his eyes and tries to relax, though he found it difficult. "Anyway, how long will we be staying in Dawnsten?"

"We'll be there today and tonight, but we'll have to leave tomorrow afternoon."

"You know, this is the first time I've left the kingdom..."

"Really?"

"Yeah, its really beautiful out here." Kurt says, looking at the forest they were riding through with awe.

"Yeah, but I know what's more beautiful." Zisteau says gently, his eyes meeting Kurt's, which held an incredulous look. "I know you don't see it Kurt, but you, you are the most beautiful thing in this whole world."

Kurt blushed deeply, glancing at his hands briefly before meeting Zisteau's blue-green eyes, which portrayed so much love. "I...uh..." Was all he could manage to say before giving up.

Zisteau chuckled, a huge smile plastered on his face. This was honestly the happiest he'd been in quite a while. And, he was very thankful for that, especially since it was Kurt that was with him, making him happy. He couldn't imagine being without Kurt now, he didn't want to even think about it. Though, there was one thing that was always in the back of his mind, nagging him. The heart disease he may have. He didn't want to have it, not just for the sake of himself, but for Kurt's sake. He couldn't image how badly that would affect him too. But, he shoved those thoughts aside, trying to savor the happiness of this moment.

A while later, the beautiful kingdom of Dawnsten appeared on the horizon, and Zisteau was rather happy about it. As much as he liked riding horses, after a couple hours, it just isn't the most comfortable thing ever. Once they reached the entrance to the castle they were very thankful. Zisteau got of off his horse and helped Kurt off of his as well. They followed Guude and Bdubs into the big, amazing castle, and they were greeted by King Pause and Queen Andrea.

"Ah Guude, my old friend, how have you been?" Pause asks, grinning brightly.

"It's been a rough month, but I'm doing ok now." Guude replies.

"Oh right, my condolences."

Guude nods. "Thank you."

"Now who is this?" He gestures to Bdubs.

"Ah, this would be Bdubs, my partner."

"Oh?" Pause raises an eyebrow. "Never knew you swung that way, would've gone after you myself." He teases, which earns a half hearted glare from his wife.

Guude chuckles. "And I'd like you to meet my son, Zisteau, and his partner, Kurt."

"Like father like son, eh?"
