Usually, it takes a while for me to fully wake up, but my room smelled so nice I forced myself to open my eyes.
"What is it?" I wondered.
I turned to the left. On top of the nightstand there was a tray in which had been placed a plate of raspberry pastries, a coffee and a glass full of orange juice. Next to it, I found a piece of paper.
I heard you like raspberries, so I made this for you. Enjoy your breakfast!
-Lance
I couldn't help but smile, he was so cute.
"Fuck" I muttered "Lance must have seen me sleeping" I blushed. Suddenly, I was so embarrassed. I grabbed the tray and started eating and, as I expected, it was delicious.
After getting dressed I went to the dining room, looking for my mom. I found her there, surrounded by all the princesses.
"Good morning, ladies" I said. "Mother"
"Join us for breakfast, darling, we ought to talk" she replied.
"I already had breakfast so I won't be joining you today" a couple of princesses looked disappointed "But tell me, what do you want to talk about?"
I sat down, and the princesses next to me nervously giggled.
"As you know, son, tomorrow night we're having a ball" I nodded "It'd be nice if you spent some time with the ladies today, and you can dance with some of them tomorrow!"
"Yeah, sure" I answered. It sounded a bit rude, so I added a smile. Then I stood up.
"I just remembered I left the breakfast tray in my bedroom, I should take it to the kitchen"
My mom was probably gonna tell me that a maid could do that, but I didn't feel like staying with the princesses so I left before she had a chance to reply. Plus, I wanted to see Lance.
I picked up the tray from my room and went to the kitchen, then I opened the door and entered. Lance was alone there, but he didn't notice me. He was humming a song while doing the dishes, so I sat down and watched him work. He was wearing a white shirt and brown trousers. The shirt, I noticed, was half unbuttoned. On top of that, he wore a black apron that had flour stains. It suited him.
"Hey, hardworking" I called him. Maybe I sounded too flirty, I started to feel nervous but I tried to hide it. He was even more flustered, which helped a bit.
"G-good morning, my prince" he said.
"Keith" I corrected him.
"Y-yes, Keith. What are you doing here?" Lance asked me.
His hands were wet and soapy from doing the dishes, so I handed him a cloth as an excuse to get closer to him.
"I came to return the tray" I explained.  "And to thank you"
"Thank me?" He sounded confused.
"For breakfast" I smiled at him. "It was wonderful, but..."
"Yes, prince Keith?"
"Tomorrow" I said, standing really close to Lance as I buttoned his shirt "I want you to wake me up when you bring my breakfast."
"Alright, prince Keith" he replied. His face was bright red, but he was smiling.
I didn't want to leave yet, so I initiated another conversation.
"Why are you the only one who's working?"
"Huh, the rest of the staff is attending your princesses, I think" Lance began to cook something. "Why are there so many of them, by the way?"
"They're not my princesses" I said "but my mother wants me to marry one of them"
Lance seemed shocked. "But you're so young, prince Keith"
"Yeah, I know" I sighed "but this kingdom needs a king".
"Do you like any of them?" He asked.
"Not really" I decided to be honest "Actually, I'm not into girls" I laughed nervously.
To my surprise, Lance smiled to me.
"I noticed" he said, and winked at me "But don't worry, I won't tell anyone"

I glanced at the clock, it was 3:09 pm. I was enjoying talking to Lance so much I didn't even think about the time. My mom would be looking for me.
"Hey, Lance, I should go. My mom told me I had to spend time with the princesses" I said.
"Where will you be?" He asked me.
"The gardens" I replied.
This time, it was him who got close to me. Lance ran his hand through my hair and then said "I'll see you there."
