I start to head towards the couch.

"No. come sit next to me." she says patting the bed. I begrudgingly follow her order.

"So what was the important thing you wanted to talk about?" I ask and she holds out her hand so I take it.

"It's really difficult for me to say this because, I've never felt this way before." she starts off and that sends a warning. She'd better not say what I think she's gonna say.

"Okay." I say.

"I just. Holland I love you." she says. I nod and pull away.

"I'm sorry I don't feel that way."

"Don't lie to me. I know you feel the bond between us. Soul bonds can never surpass friendship and you know that. Yet I feel more for you than that. We must be bonded deeper than that. You are my fated one." She says and I draw back.

"No I can't. I'm in love with the Princess."

"I know that. But you're falling out of love aren't you?" she says and that I can't deny. She stands and walk towards me.

"Once you do I will be waiting and we will be together. I know you better than anyone, for fated ones are also bonded in soul but a different way to friendship." she says and I frown. I can't believe she's making sense. If I did fall out of love with the Princess I would go to her I'm certain. That is not what I want.

"I must go now, and think this over." I will go find the Princess and tell her my feelings immediately.
