----------------------------------------------------

It was the same Friday, but a different location. Liliana and Fotula were currently helping Mrs. Jenny Kumiko in the library. It wasn't the usual book section, but the one that stored all important documents regarding villagers, kingdoms, Pokémon and other relevant information.

Now now, we don't want to say that the two girls weren't working at all, but at least not as efficiently as one would hope them to. But that was most probably Fotula's fault. Liliana was currently trying to reach for a bunch of documents on a high shelf but couldn't quite make it. Being somewhat taller than the silver-haired female, Fotula approached the girl from behind and rested her chin on Liliana's shoulder.

The shy girl's face instantly heated up before not only her voice started stuttering, but her body shivering as well. "F-Fotula! M-Mrs. Jenny is h-here too, y-you know!" The ravenette didn't seem to be fazed by the obvious information at all and instead allowed her breath to hit the shorter's neck. "So what? We're just helping her out."

"S-She'll think that w-we're messing around!" Liliana stuttered rather loudly even though she was trying hard to whisper instead. Fotula couldn't stop a smile from arising on her face, and soon wrapped her arms around Liliana's waist, leaning her body completely against the younger girl's. They could have stayed like that or even went further if it hadn't been for a certain unexpected guest to show up in the library. "I hate to interrupt when you seem so... busy..."

"But Camilla asked me to come find you." It was none other than the white-haired guard Myron Kenji who seemed to be a little tense or perhaps somewhat embarrassed would fit his state better as he aimed his statement at Fotula. Liliana was more than just 'somewhat embarrassed' and that became quite visible once one would take a look at her beet red face.

"Is something wrong?" Not knowing why she would have been called out on all of the sudden, Fotula assumed that something more important would have been the matter. And she wasn't entirely wrong, only that it wasn't as severe and negative as she worried. "No, she said she just wanted to talk to you about some things, since you'll be becoming the royal advisor soon."

"She also mentioned that she plans on talking about more personal things, so she requested you to go alone. She should be waiting in the conference room." Myron said, a bit more politely than necessary but that was only because he wasn't used to being too friendly with Fotula or any other girls that weren't you or Loraine. "Alright, thank you. I'll be taking my leave then. I'll be back though."

Aiming the last part at Liliana whom she was forced to let go, the purple-eyed female slowly made her way out of the library and headed for the mentioned hall. Liliana was left flustered and blushed as she furiously attempted to fix her clothes which didn't even need any adjustments. Myron noticed her awareness and couldn't help but smile once he noticed her soft expression as well; She had always been so shy around both girls and boys, so he was glad that she as well had been able to find someone who completed her.

"Say, Liliana," The white-haired guard gained the shorter female's attention, causing her to tense up momentarily and stand straight, not knowing if he was going to mention something about the position he saw her and Fotula in earlier, but of course that wasn't going to be the case. "Are you close with Sir Rouen?"

"I-I don't know if y-you could call that b-being close... W-Why do you ask?" Liliana questioned shyly, playing with a few of the silver strands of hair that escaped her carefully coiffed hair. Myron didn't mean to make the girl feel uncomfortable, nor did he have ulterior motives when he asked that question. "Do you know if he's at the castle today? There's something I'd like to talk to him about, but I don't know where I should go looking for him."
