After a little while of talking and relax on the sand James rented a boat. We got in the the man he rented it from pushed us out. James started to row to out and stopped in the middle of the lake and I looked down in the water and saw all of the beautiful fish.

They were all so cool

They were all so cool. Since I've always been cooped up in my castle I haven't really been around wild life much and then I said to James "it doesn't get much better than this."
He replies "yeah it doesn't really get much better then being on a lake we awesome wildlife all around you."
Then we just sat their for a while and did nothing just looked at each other, at the wildlife, smiled, looked at each other, and then the wildlife. It went on like that for a pretty long time. Then since the sun was going down the wind started to kick up a little bit and it got a bit cold. Then still in the romantic silence that we had and we sat together with James' blanket that he brought. I didn't even know how he brought it but I wasn't going to ask. We just sat and sat and sat with my head in his shoulder. Then he said "I'm going to row us to the secret hideout."
I laughed as he said that because it sounded so cute and childish. Then I said "this has been a nice night even though we haven't said much or talked as much but it's been nice."
"Yeah, it has." He said
"I'm getting hungry for some dessert." I said
"Well you're in good hands because I brought some." James said
"What?! How?! Ok so first you have the blanket and now you have this. How did you even bring it without me noticing?" I said
"I had it the whole time how could you not notice." James replied
"Well ok." I said
Then it went back to silence.... AGAIN. I can't stand this awkward romantic silence. It can just get weird sometimes people.

Soon enough we finished eating our desert and James says to me "Esmeralda, I have something to ask you."
"Well, what is it." I replied
"When do you get coronated as Queen?" James asked
"In about a month I think." I said
"Wow, Queen already." He said
"Yeah my job starts early, that's probably one of the reasons why my parents want me to get married so early, to have a companion to help me with my ruling."
"Ok." He said
"Well um so you want to start heading back?" I asked
"Um sure lets go back." James said then he rowed us back to shore and we left. At the end of the street we say the carriage just arriving so we hopped in and I was driven back to the castle with James and while we were in the carriage we made plans that tomorrow I will go to his village.
