"Jack!" Alex yelled at the top of his voice running through his servant's as well as Zack's chambers to the back room that surely held the raven haired boy. He was late, Alex had a tournament, and his amour hadn't been polished yet.

Zack chuckled, throwing a glance to the angry Prince raging through his chambers but went back to minding his own business when Alex shot him a dirty glare.

The door to Jack's room burst open and Alex probably would have 'awed' at the sleeping boy because damn it was cute-his chest rising an falling in an even rhythm-but he was angry, so instead he picked up the full china cup of water by his bed and threw it all over him.

Jack shot up, coughing and spluttering, wiping the sleep and excess water from his eyes before laying the brown iris' and pupils on the furious Prince in front of him with his arms crossed and foot tapping impatiently against the wooden flooring, creating an annoying, incessant and unrhythmic pattern. "W-what." He stuttered, shifting himself up so he was sitting. He looked down-his shirt was sodden-and sighed.

"You're late! In case you'd forgotten I have the jousting tournament today and you-" Alex picked up a shirt from the messy floor and launched it at Jack, "-are supposed to be helping me prepare!" He yelled and Jack sighed, he'd noticed it was around times like these-when they boy was nervous-that he got angry and yelled. Jack being late for work didn't make the situation any better. Normally Alex would just have laughed at the state of Jack's room when he was supposed to be good at cleaning.

Jack pulled the stay shirt off his face and stood up, pulling the wet one off and the clean one on. He couldn't help but notice Alex's wondering-but still furious looking/eyes as he did so. "Having fun?" The servant raised his eyebrow at the Prince and said boy jumped and averted his gaze when he realised he'd been staring at Jack's chest. Experimentally, Jack stepped forwards so he was much closer to Alex and placed two fingers under his chin, bringing it up so it was level with his own and placed his lips on Alex's. "Don't be nervous." He mumbled into the chestnut haired man's mouth. Jack physically felt Alex relax in his embrace, stress leaking from his body when their skin came into contact. "It won't be like last time."

Alex pulled away but kept the grip on Jack's lower arms that he had acquired. "You can't know that." He sighed tearing the skin off his lips with his front teeth.

"Why do you fight, then?"

"I guess I enjoy it really but also my father would disown me if I didn't and I'd be even more of a disappointment than I already am."

"You're not a disappointment." Jack mumbled encouragingly against Alex's skin as he nuzzled his head into the crook of his champions neck and started biting at the skin.

A moan was bubbling forth in Alex's throat and was about to surface when he remembered that Zack was in the next room and so pushed Jack off of him. Said boy frowned and Alex rolled his eyes. "Zack's just in there." He whispered and Jack groaned quietly. "Come on, play along." Alex grabbed Jack by the shirt, taking him by utter surprise and then pushing him out the bedroom door into the room where Zack was. Jack stumbled but Alex grabbed his shirt and pulled him along. "You're useless Jack, honestly!" He growled, sending Zack a small smile and shoving Jack out the door.

Once they were out a little way down the corridor, Alex let go of Jack shirt who then looked down and frowned at the creased material covering his chest. "What the hell was that for!?" He shouted, angry at Alex now. "Are you so ashamed of even being friends with me that Zack can't even see you being nice to me? Because news flash when you were on your deathbed you were more than friendly and It didn't go unnoticed." He huffed, storming off ahead of Alex to his chambers. Alex stared after the boy incredulously and furious at himself and Jack and everything. Okay, maybe it hadn't been very nice but he had a reputation to uphold and wasn't about to drop it.
