From the corner of my eye, Eric was there coming closer and closer, his eyes on his schedule book with his pen out. I couldn't have let him see me here doing something that wasn't meant for me so I opened the young Prince's door, quickly went inside and close the door shut as fast as I can. I could see Eric snap his head up as I closed the door, then footsteps... Came closer. It stopped at the door and the door opened a quarter. I hid behind the door, he opened a bit more but then there was someone outside.
"Ah! Mr. Eric! There you were, I was asking your opinion on..." A girl's voice called out.
"Yes... I'll be right there." Eric said and closed the door quietly.
A sigh escaped my lips as my eyes were drawn to the young man lying on the bed. His soft black hair, long eyelashes, plump red lips, white skin and cheeks so rosy red that I wish my cheeks were of that color. Little slits of light from outside peered through the curtains and landed on his hair making a sight so breathtakingly beautiful my heart pounded against my chest so hard I sworn I could've heard it. I walked up to him and put the food on the table beside him.
What should I do? Should I wake him up for the food or just leave it there and walk out of here? Should I stay here and take care of him? Is that what the butlers even do? I don't think so..
Many thoughts ran through my mind, making it difficult for me to choose. Suddenly the young Prince's eyelids fluttered open and looked around the room, then his eyes landed on me. He sat up. His shirt was unbuttoned at the top leaving his bare chest open. Because of the sweat trickling down his neck to his chest, his chest was glistening. I could feel my face turning redder by the second.He looked at the food I laid on the table, "You laid the food there for me?" He asked with a hoarse voice.
"Y-yes..!" I stuttered.
"And what happened to.. Mr. Payton? Did something happen to him?" He asked worriedly.
"Uh.. Um.. His stomach wasn't feeling well and um..." I answered not knowing what else to think.
"How very saddening.. Please send my best of wishes to him." The young Prince said and broke into a cough immediately.
I reached out to pat his back out of habit hy taking care of my grandmother and neighbors but stopped when I realized I was about to touch a royal without permission with my filthy commoners hand. He might get angry and do many bad things to my grandma and other poor neighbors. I stepped back and poured him a glass of water.
Showing him the glass of water, "Would you like to take some water, young master?" I offered.
He accepted and drank half the glass. He smiled as I took the glass from him and laid it on the table.
"Would you like anything else, young master?" I asked very politely.
"Could you wipe my back? You can call someone else if you're not feeling comfortable with me.. I usually have Mr. Payton do it." He said.
I could feel my neck burn. I smiled "Not at all, young master... I shall come back with a towel and a pail filled with water." I went out of the room and sighed.
"Ah! You there with the ponytail!" Someone shouted.
My heart jumped out of my chest as I heard someone. I looked at the hallway and saw a small little boy carrying a pail approaching me, careful not to drop it.
"Sorry was I late? I was taking a nap and lost track of time! Anyway here's the bucket of water and towel! I need to go!" He said and went on his own somewhere.
I put a hand to my heart and tried to calm myself down.
It's going to be okay... You've taken care of your younger cousins before! It's not that different. But this was never my job, this was that Mr. Payton's job. When I'm done with this I'm going to have a long talk with Dahlia.
