I gain consciousness again as then sun peaks over the hills, indicating the start of a new day. I stretch my arms above my head but quickly draw them back as I feel the back of my hand whack something.

"Ow." I hear a mumbled, half-hearted groan from the object I just hit. I look up to see Phil rubbing his cheek, pretending that it really hurt. I giggled as he looked down at me and frowned. His frown however soon turned into a smile. I couldn't tell it was a smile by his eyes, I could tell by the way his lips curled up at the edges. He never wears his mask anymore, and I'm very glad of that because his smile is one of my favourite things on earth.

"What a very rude awakening." He comments as he sits up and rubs his eyes.

"Sorry Love." I say and wrap my arms around his waste, giving him a quick hug.

"Its Okay... although I don't think you deserve your surprise anymore." He says and looks down at me.

"What surprise?" I let go and to look up at him. He laughs at my excitement.

"I guess you'll never find out." He shrugs and goes to get out of bed. I grab his wrist, stopping him from doing so.

"Please." I say and give him puppy dog eyes.

"Fine." He gives in with a smile. "I'll show you after breakfast."

He goes to walk out of the room and I quickly get up to follow him. I shiver as the cold air hits my body.

"Wait." He says turning around to stop me. "I have to get everything ready, stay here." I pout but do as I'm told. He gives me a sympathetic smile as bends down slightly to peck my lips. I can't help but smile and he laughs as he exits the room.

We still live in the castle. My parents are still alive so I'm technically not King yet. We've been married for almost a year now, it'll be a year next week. Time fly's so fast, I hadn't realized it had gone so quick. I still want to travel with Phil and Lion, we just haven't got round to it I guess.

I sat on the edge of the bed, waiting for Phil to return. I looked over a Lion, who was curled up in a little ball in the corner of the room. I smiled at how cute and peaceful he looked. Above where he slept was a small pin board. Phil and I stuck all the little things on their that were important to us. Most of them were Phil's drawing of special events and places. The note I found in his journal last year was on there too.

I miss you.

the words were crossed out

I need you.

They were crossed out too.

I love you.

They were still there. The ink was fading slightly but those three words will remain in my head forever. I sighed. "How did I ever become so lucky?" I mumbled to myself quietly, being careful not to wake up Lion.

I remember when Phil left... and the second time he left. I didn't want to think about it but I was just curious. When he wasn't around, I changed. I don't know why or how but I just became more arrogant and just took what was coming. When he 'died'... I didn't no what to do. I didn't want to live, there was nothing left for me to be happy about, but I needed to live for my people.

I sighed again and tried to forget about it. It was fine now, Phil is alive and I have the perfect life. If only I could go back in time and tell myself everything will be OK.

Just then, Phil poked his head back round the door and smiled at me. "You can come down to breakfast now." I smiled back and followed him down to the dining room.

We sat down on our usual chairs and some chefs came and handed us a nicely cooked breakfast. We smiled at them and said 'thanks' as they put the plates before us.

"I'll show you the surprise after breakfast." Phil said as he began too eat his toast.

"I'm really excited." I beamed as I tried to shovel the food into my mouth faster.

"I can see that." He giggled and swallowed his food.

"Can you give me just, like, a tiny hint. Just a tiny one." I asked  with a cheeky grin.

"No way." He paused and looked at me. "And those puppy dog eyes ain't getting you no where this time." I frowned but continued to stuff my face as fast as humanly possible.

I'd finished my food about five minuets ago, but since Phil was in no rush. He was still on his last slice of toast.

I sat with my head resting on my hand. "Come on!" I groaned impatiently.

"Alright, alright, I'm done." He said and stood up.

My head jolted up and I quickly ran over to his side.

"Now face that way." He pointed to the window. I did as I was told and turned to face the window. I squinted a bit at the sunlight.

"Now." He said, placing his hands over my eyes from behind me. "Walk forwards." I giggled as I began to shuffle towards the window.

I felt my feet hit the wall in front off us and he took his hands off my eyes, sliding them down to my waist. "Look out the window." He instructed, and I did.

"Do you see anything... different?" He asked. I looked closely. To be honest, everything looked pretty much the same. It was a nice summers morning. The sky was light blue with a few clouds dotted around, a light breeze made the trees sway lightly as a few green leaves swirled passed the window. I looked down to the courtyard to see a few people walking around doing chores. One was feeding the brown horses in the stable, another few sweeping the grounds and one polishing the carriage and oh wait...

"Why are there two carriages?" I asked confused. I'm not sure if that's what he was hinting at but I swore we only had one.

"I ordered it." He said proudly.

I turned in his arms to face him and saw him smiling at me.

"Why?" I asked.

"Because." He said, resting his forehead on mine and I smiled. "We're going on an adventure. Tomorrow."
