Encre P.O.V.

I stuck to my promise to help Jasper with his French.

"C'est la fin de la leçon." (That's the end of the lesson.) I say after we practiced for an hour.

"Aww...d'accord..." (Aww...okay...) Jasper hugs me around the waist. "Thank you for helping me, Encre!" He smiles. I hug him back. "No problem, Jasper. It was fun."

Jasper agreed and ran out the doors of the library, pulling me along with him. "J-Jasper!!" I laughed. "I wanna tell father about you teaching me! Hold on! I'll go see where he is!" I nod. "I'll wait in the library." He runs off, becoming a blur.

I blink and turn around to go back to the library. I sit at the table where Jasper and I had worked. I grabbed my sketchbook from the middle of the table and began sketching a rose.

As I begin shading the delicate petals, I feel someone's arms wrap around me shoulders and a head rest on my shoulder. "Hello, mon amour." (My love.) I say as I feel Fallacy's cheek brush mine.

He straightens and sits in a chair next to me. Jasper runs in. "Found him!" I laugh. Jasper sits across from me and Fallacy. I close my sketchbook and hold Fallacy's hand under the table.

"Father! Encre is a great teacher! Can he be my teacher from now on, please?!!" Jasper exclaims.

"If Encre doesn't mind. It is his choice, after all." Fallacy looks at me. I feel my cheeks grow hot. "M-moi?!!" (M-me?!!) "I'm not a very good teacher, I honestly don't think-" Jasper cuts me off. "Of course you can!! You are a great teacher!!"

I feel my cheeks grow hot. "Ah-bu-" I sigh and giggle. "Alright, alright! I'll do it!" Jasper jumps in the air, summoning...bat wings?!!

I jump a little. Fallacy laughs softly. "Did I forget to mention that?"

I smile. "Oui." (Yes.)

Jasper turns into a bat and flies out of the library. Once Fallacy hears the door shut, he pulls me into his lap. I blush deeply.

"F-Fallacy!" I squeak. Fallacy chuckles and kisses me. I kiss back, blushing even more. "Could we go somewhere else...?" I ask. "Like the garden! Let's go to the garden! Please?"

Fallacy smiles and wraps one arm around my torso. He snaps his fingers on the other hand and we appear in the garden room, right under the willow tree.

He pulls me to his side, hugging me tightly. I snuggled into him and we begin a small conversation about flowers, of all things. I then begin teaching him French as I said I would.

Eventually we just sat under the tree, our shoulders against each other. I laid my head on Fallacy's shoulder.

"Are you hungry?" Fallacy asked. "A little..." I replied.

We stood up and made our way to the dining room. Jasper came soon after us.

"Hello Father! Hello Encre!" He said as he hugged me. I smiled. "Hello Jasper."

We sat down and soon we were all laughing and talking. When the sun began to rise, it was time to sleep.
