A Royal Love: William

Chapter five

"Calm down, Will. You make me nervous." "How can I calm down!? Father wants that I find a wife sooner!" "You just have to go to Luna and get her to be your wife." "I can't just go to her and ask her to be my wife!" "No, but you can start with kissing her." I walked to my bed and lie down. "Hey Drake? I need your help." I hear Matt say. Drake has his phone number to? They have to be really good friends then. Matt walks to me and I look at him. "Drake is going to bring you to Luna tonight." "Are you coming too?" "Yeah, but don't worry, we're not going to stay with you." "Are you going to a bar again?" "No, we're going to Drake's house. He's working tomorrow, so you can't be the whole night with Luna."

Matt and I get in the car and Drake starts to drive. When we arrive at Luna's house, Drake stops the car and looks at me in the mirror. "We'll be here around one o'clock." "Okay, thank you." I get out and they immediately drive away.

I walk to Luna's house and ring the doorbell. The door opens and I see Luna in a short black dress with long sleeves. "Will! It's always good to see you again." I smile at her. " It's good to see you too." "Let's take a walk." "Alright." She went back inside her house to get her purse and after that we started walking.

"Do you live all alone?" "Yes, well for now. My parents are on a business trip. And you? You never mentioned your parents either." "I live with my parents, there is just not much to say about them." "Oh, do you study something?" "Yeah, I study politics." "Politics? Wow, I didn't expect that." "Luna!" We both look at where the voice came from. "Sally? What are you doing here?" "We were on our way to your house and saw you here, so we came to you." Kyle says while walking towards us. "What's wrong? Did something happen?" "No, don't worry. Sally just-" "No Kyle not 'just'. I've won!" "Won? What did you win?" "A meet-and-greet with prince William!" A meet-and-greet? Why didn't anyone mentioned me at the castle? "That's amazing! Congratulations!" "Well, we'll leave you two alone. Sorry to interrupt your date." Sally says while she and Kyle walk away. "We're not on a date!" "Yeah sure, if you believe that." Sally yells before disappearing out of sight with Kyle.

"Sally is so lucky. She gets to meet the prince! Not many people can say they met a royal." "They're just people like you and I." "Yeah, but with crowns, pretty dresses, an amazing castle to live in and a whole county that loves them! That must be amazing!" "Everything has its disadvantages. Even being a royal." "Well, being a normal citizen has more disadvantages than advantages." "No, you go where ever you want, you don't have to worry about what people think of you and you can be just you." She looks sad at me. "Do you really think that royals can't be themselves?" "Yeah I do."

After hours of talking, we walked back to her house and waited for Matt and Drake to arrive. I look at her. "Have I already told you that you look beautiful in that dress?" She smiles at me. "No you haven't." I smile back. "Well, you look beautiful." "Thanks." I can see her cheeks becoming red. "Now I can say that you're cute when you blush." She puts her hands on her cheeks. "Am I that red?" "Yes you are." I take her hand in my hands and look at her. "Don't hide yourself, everyone needs to see how beautiful you are." I look in her eyes and she looks back in mine. I move closer to her and she does the same. I keep going closer until our lips are touching. I put my arms around her waist and she puts hers around my neck. When we stop kissing to breath, we smile at each other.

"Is this the woman you found so pretty?" We look and see father and mother with a bunch of bodyguards. Father and mother come closer and look at Luna. I let go of her and look at father. "How did you know-" He looks at me. "I know everything that happens in this county." Father looks back at Luna. "What is your name?" She bows to him. "My name is Luna, your majesty." "Tell me Luna, why do you recognise me and my wife immediately, but not our son?" "Your son?" "Yes, prince William. You were just kissing him" "What?" She looks at me, but I don't look at her. "You-You're the prince?" I look at her. "Luna, I can explain." "You lied to me!" "Luna, I-" "I don't even want to hear it." She turns around and starts walking to her house. "Luna!" "Guards." I hear father say. "Take her." I look at him. "What? You can't just-" "I can, I am the king."

"Will, I'm so sorry that I'm too..." Matt says while walking towards me. "...late." He looks around him. "What is happening here?" I look at him. "Father and mother saw me kissing Luna and now father asked the guards to go take her." "You kissed her? finally!" "Matt!" "Sorry, but it was about time." "Let go of me!" We look and see Luna being dragged to father by two guards. I walked to him. "Father, please let her go." He looks at Luna and then back at me. "I have to say, she really is pretty." "Please, just let me go. I won't bother you again, please!" "Oh no, you are coming with us. Guards, take her to the castle." "No! let me go!" "Father please, do not do this." "You knew this would happen the moment you kissed her, William." With that said, he got in a car with mother close behind him.

I watch as their car drives away. I feel a hand on my shoulder and look at Matt. "It's going to be alright." "No it's not, Matt. She hates me!" "She doesn't hate you, she's just angry at you." Drake says while walking toward us. "She feels betrayed, you lied to her. How would you react in her place?" "I would be angry to, but it's not my fault! I didn't know that father would come!" "She doesn't know that. Come on, I'll drive you home." He says and starts walking to his car.
