'So..' Queenly whispered to herself. 'Are you here as a polish boy, or as my servant?' Queenly grabbed Mex's hand. And guided him along to her tent. 'W-well' Mex got a bright blush on his face, as Queenly's gentle, yet soft hand grabbed his. 'None of both, really.' As Mex said those words, Queenly stopped walking, and let go of his hand. 'Excuse me?' Mex looked up at Quuenly, who was standing a little bit above him on the stairs. Her barely covering armor was shining with pride. Mex remembered because he had polished it himself. 'If that's the case. What are you here for anyway?' The loving voice of Queenly, suddenly turned into a harsh, violent tone. 'I just..' Mex tried to speak, but he was distracted for some reason.. 'I need another loan. That's all.' 'How dare you!' Queenly said fiercly. Pinning him to the wall with her lance. ''You come here, asking for more, without even having paid off anything?!'' Her face got close to Mex's. She could feel him sweating even more than before. 'I don't think you would like to see what happens, if you're going to tell me that you're not able to pay me back.' She said
'I-I know that..' He said, while Queenly pressed her lance horizontally against his throat. 'I just have to take care of Lisai a little bit longer.' She suddenly loosened her grip on Mex, and started laughing. 'You're here to ask for more money?' with one hand, she tried to cover her mouth in a classy way while laughing. 'Not a chance. I'm not giving one dime to that little brat of yours.' Mex looked down in sadness, but this quickly turned into an angry stare. 'Not to sound cheap. But listen, Mex, I like you.' Queenly said, while she ran her finger over his chest. 'You have to do a little bit more for me, if you want me to change my mind on this subject.' Mex got even angrier, as she said those words. He had been working for 16 hours, cleaning, and polishing everything and everyone who could afford it. 'Listen up.' He said, as he pushed Queenly away from him. 'It's not me who has to work harder here. It's about you not getting all dirty over everyone here in town. Queenly's eyes widen. As she wasn't used to Mex standing up for himself. He usually did everything that was asked for him. Just to pay the bills. 'I like it when you play hard to get.' She looked at the scratched paint on her lance, it had been through a lot. She wanted to scold him, but could only laugh it away. 'Tell me, peasant.' She said while getting closer to him, grabbing his chin, and staring deeply inside his eyes. 'What is it that you need from me?' Mex blushed, but he knew that he had to take a little bit more damage, just to leave this kingdom and it's useless guards. 'Well.. How about... 30.000?' '30.000?!' Queenly removed her hand from his chin, and slapped him with great force. 'Are you going to bribe the king or something like that?' 'It's not like that!' He shouted. 'I... I have decided to leave. But I cannot leave here unless I'm certain of Lisai and me staying somewhere safe. 'Well, what about that cottage you have on the hill?' Queenly asked. 'It's not very big. But if I'd live there with you. I could certainly call it home.' She smirked at him. His face turned red again quickly.„No..'' Mex sighed. ''For some reason, this place doesn't feel like home anymore.'' „How come?'' Queenly asked, while resuming walking to her tent. ''You have lived there your entire life. I can't imagine you long for anything that isn't within reach.'' „I know... It's strange.'' Mex said, while following Queenly inside of her tent. ''But when I woke up this morning.. Something just didn't feel right.'' Mex sat down in one of the chairs. The table he was sitting at was filled with Maps of neighbouring countries, and attack plans. Mex forgot that Queenly wasn't just a person to ask for a loan. She was also one of the lead commanders in the army of the king. „Well.'' Queenly said slowly, rubbing Mex's shoulders. ''Maybe you need to get away from Lisai, and grab life by it's balls. I know I would.'' As her hands moved further down, Queenly's younger brother stepped in. He was also a part of the Royals. He had blonde spikey hair, and carried a big 2-handed sword. However, it seemed like he needed 3 hands to lift it.''I'm sorry. Am I interrupting anything here?''
„No, not at all.'' Queenly said with a cool voice. Unlike Mex And Lisai, Queenly and her brother, Cristopher, were never that close. ''Could you atleast close the tent if you're going to just stand there?'' Queenly quickly removed her hands from Mex's shoulders. „Yes ma'am!'' Christopher shouted, a little bit too loud. ''Anything you wished to discuss?'' „No.'' Queenly said ''As you can see, i'm with company.'' „Ehm, Hey Chris..'' Mex said, while kindly waving at Chris. „Oh!'' Christopher smiled. ''It's so good to see you again, Mex! I never had the honour to thank you for the good rub the other day.'' „Please!'' Mex replied quickly. ''Don't mention it.'' „Anyway!'' Queenly shouted. She could obviously not stand to not be the centre of attention. ''Christopher, I'm talking to Mex about a loan for.. his unplanned desires.'' „What?'' Christopher said in disbelief. ''What is she talking about, Mex?'' „It's nothing.'' Mex said, while looking away from Christopher.'' „See?'' Queenly tried to cut her brother off from the conversation. ''It's nothing. Now, get out!'' „...'' Christopher grabbed his heavy 2 handed sword. And dragged it out of the tent. ''Yes ma'am.''
