Jaike and Faron

True love? (last part)

The next day Jaike awoke to the smell of meat cooking over a small fire that Faron had made, Faron was cooking some of the meat that he had hunted the day before which mostly consisted of small deer and rabbits. As Jaike began eating he noticed that Faron didn't cook any for himself. When Jaike asked about this and Faron said he was vegetarian and had only caught the food for Jaike even though he didn't want too. Jaike thought this was sweet and offered to not eat meat while they were together and Faron happily agreed. After breakfast Jaike and Faron set off again, Faron had said that they were heading for the castle that he lived in; Jaike had assumed that Faron was a prince or knight all ready but this had just confirmed his beliefs further.
"Do you have anyone special at this castle were heading to?" Jaike had asked eager to break the silence.
"He's not at the castle yet," he had answered hesitating, "in fact he's talking to me now,"
Jaike blushed and turned away, as well as he could on a horse, left speechless, Jaike just sat on the back of the horse feeling a fuzzy kind of feeling in his chest. That feeling was abruptly pushed away when Faron horse stopped rearing back and knocking Jaike and Faron off on top of each other, this would have been a romantic moment for Jaike if the thing that had caused the horse to stop wasn't the witch that had kept Jaike locked up all these years. Faron jumped off of Jaike and unsheathed his sword; the witch took one look at Faron and laughed.
"I remember you from the castle, servant boy" the witch teased "you couldn't even hurt a fly back then, now look at you."
"Servant?" Jaike whispered softly
"oh, yes," the witch cackled "didn't he tell you? He's just a lowly servant who came looking for a lovely princess to rescue and marry to become king, but it looked like he found a different type of royalty, you are a prince Jaike, the prince of Farons kingdoms enemy, Anathonate,"
Jaike looked at the witch in disbelief just as the which raised her finger to curse Jaike, Faron stabbed her straight through her stone cold heart with his shining sword and looked at Jaike,
"are you ok?" he said softly "I know that was a lot to take in but I don't care if you're from Anathonate, because I-I love you Jaike, I really do."
Jaike stood up slowly and looked at Faron for a second, he really was the most beautiful person he ever met, he stepped forward, kissed him softly then whispered
"I love you too."
They stood there for a second staring at each other then grabbed each other's hands and walked towards Farons stallion feeling the happiest they've ever been.
